I'm hoping to pool OOT's considerable combined music knowledge to eventually determine the all-time greatest album of each year, across all categories.
Who knows, maybe we'll turn it into some sort of poll eventually but for now I'm gonna test the waters and see if there's any interest. Here are a few suggestions of all-time great albums from various years. Feel free to agree, disagree or nominate albums from different years. The only rule is that greatest hits albums don't count. 1965 - The Beatles, Rubber Soul 1982 - Michael Jackson, Thriller 1992 - Dr. Dre, The Chronic 1994 - Soundgarden, Superunknown Swede |

1986 - Paul Simon, Graceland
1975 - Bob Dylan, Blood on the Tracks 1969 - Frank Zappa, Hot Rats (I know it was a hot year in music, but this album is nearly perfect imo) |

1976 - Eagles - Hotel California [/ QUOTE ] I'd take Dylan's "Desire" over that. I hate the [censored]' Eagles, man! |
