NME Top 100 Albums of all time - Page 2

I don't know who the Stone Roses are.

I do own 13 CD's on the list, all of which I think are misplaced.

I really can't believe the strokes are #7. Who has the balls to do that? The highest rolling stones album is #52. Yeah, cause in 5 years the strokes will still be a big deal.

The ground for Oasis was laid by The Stone Roses rather than the other way round - the first Roses release to be relatively widely known was Elephant Stone in 1988, 6 years before Definitely Maybe.

Although I think that the Stone Roses paved the way for most of the music I like, and are one of my two or three all time favourite bands, The Stone Roses is not the best album I have now. However it heavily influenced most of what I now like - and therefore I wouldn't argue too much with it at number 1. At the same time as long as it was in top 5/10 I wouldn't argue either.

Somebody mentioned earlier in the thread: this is a list from a British based point of view, and these things are very subjective - the idea is to create debate. Have to agree with the general thread consensus about The Strokes though!
