Sheesh. Bowie's not THAT good. Nor are the rolling stones.
And where are all the classical composers? Weren't they

I think A tribe Called Quest should be higher up (I can't
recommend myself, as I am not a narcissistic asshole like
Celine Dion!)

this is the most inaccurate, incosistent list i've seen in
quite some time. i know my fav. band 311 has sold quadruple
more albums than Sublime. they're not even in that list, not
to mention the fact that they pretty much invented the "dual
rap/rock scene in 1989"

Always trust a person who splits 'all time' into 6 decades,
starting in the 1950s

hopefully never, so that you can post uninformed and
incorrectly titled pompous documents of your own.

amateur concoction of low-pitched piano (not played..
PITCHED) and strange noise...

beatles on the top of any list...
If anyone haven't noted this yet...haha...improve your

Hahahahahahaha... everyone is so inferior to The Beatles.

I've had that site bookmarked for a while, I really like it.
Looking in the lower or mid reaches of the charts and
randomly pulling up an artist or album you don't recognize
yields some interesting results. There's weird omissions and
strange placings, but every list ever made will have them.
There's too many great artists, too much great work, and not
enough slots.

Yes, it's a list for spend days and months in researchs...

And if anyone thinks that the inclusion of all beatles
records is a overestimated idea...go and listen to them!!!
