For the record, Boston's self-titled album is the best ever.

Hmmm -- now there's one that has been overlooked on this thread. I remember hearing somewhere that "More Than A Feeling" is the most often-requested song in the history of FM radio in the U.S.

At least 4 of the songs on that album are what would be termed "rock anthems". I didn't count "greatest hits" albums (even though this survey did).

Actually, I wonder if albums have been rated by (a) number of #1 hits and (b) number of top 10 hits. I'd be curious to see which albums win on that scale.

According to this, the top selling albums are:

1. Eagles: Their Greatest Hits
2. Michael Jackson: Thriller (got to give very grudging props to the freaky one himself)
3. Pink Floyd: The Wall
4. Led Zeppelin: Untitled (IV)
5. Billy Joel: Greatest Hits Volume I & II

Boston's self titled is #11.
