Some can be debated. But Miles Davis' Birth of the Cool, Brubeck's Take 5 and Dylan's Highway 61 are top 3 in my book.

Totally agree about Brubeck's Take Five. And how could they do this list without the Rolling Stones or Led Zeppelin?

Silly list. Way too British.
So many durable people and groups missing.
What about Van Morrison, BB King, Ray Charles, Buddy Holly, Santana, Doors, for just a few?

Brian Wilson's latest revamp of Smiles is a charmer.
He never was able to talk the Beach Boys in completing the concept album. (The original version was only half of what he intended.)
It's quite an album, or now CD.

Ah, the Guardian.
This is a very 'English' list. I mean, Kraftwerk? That's pretty provincial.

Okay, I just read the whole aricle.
This list sucks! Pink Floyd is WAAAAAY down the list, no mention of Yes, Rush, Zeppelin, zero southern rock, this guy is on acid. Probably thinks Bjork is sexy too.

He never was able to talk the Beach Boys in completing the concept album. You may be right, but I always thought the album was never completed because Brian descended into drug abuse and schitzophrenia.

Surprisingly, I've heard/owned 11 out 50.

Frank is Frank. Not sure he had any particular album that changed the course of music though. He just did what he did far better than most.
