Actually, Nirvana pretty much began the whole alternative 90s rock movement, which produced a lot of great bands.

And i think GNR's space at 61 is well deserved.? (well, maybe it could be brought down to 50 or so) because a lot of those albums are fucking legendary.

And what bands might those be?

50 or so? Granted, there are alot of great albums to choose from, but AFD is a classic among classics. Atleast in the top 25.

There's alot of great music out there (Muse, Mars Volta, Tool) but there's not alot of good classic rock in the veins of GN'R, Zeppelin and Aerosmith.

Again, it's just a list and if it wasn't made by you, you obviously won't be happy about it.  If a band or performer is on the list, obviously they have done something right. I would rather be a band on the list and have people talk shit about me on a message board, than to be sitting here on a message board talking shit about a band on the TOP albums list of all time. I'm sure most people would agree. If these lists were even somewhat accurate ALL THE TIME, The Beatles, Zeppelin, The Stones, Dylan, Hendrix, Pink Floyd and Appetite would OWN the first 20 albums.  But they have to be "fair" and spread those great albums out and try to make everyone at least somewhat happy. And...some of you will disagree about what I just said about the top 20 albums, but that's why we have what are called opinions.

It's CLASSIC rock, music evolves in changes.  There's some bands who play the classic rock style (like Jet and Wolfmother, "vintage"-sounding bands.).  Even if there was a good sounding classic rock band they'd just be put off as a copy, like Wolfmother and Jet often are.

But i applaud you for liking the Mars Volta. Wink

This list is already almost a few years old. This is the same list that came out in the magazine in I think 2004. The list doesn't mean shit. When RS did the top 100 albums of all time, PICKED BY THE FANS, Appetite was number 7 I think. That's what matters, not this shit list.? But I can't disagree with 4 Beatles albums in the top 16 as someone said. The number one album of all time when picked by the fans in that top 100 list was The Beatles "Revolver." Someone had mentioned Joshua Tree from U2 and that was in the top 5 of that list I believe as well, although I'm not a big fan of U2 at all. I think the Illusion albums were in the 40's in that top 100 list. I'm sure it's on RS.com with the rest of their lists they've done.

EDIT:? Here it is. It didn't copy and paste very well,? but it gives you an idea.

That's a sucky list too. Any list where Nevermind is higher than AFD, is an incorrect list.

I agree with everything else there.

^ I never really said they were better lists, but it is better that Appetite is ranked in the top 10 in one of them, compared to the fifties and sixties. I do like Nirvana, but I know Nevermind shouldn't be listed before GN'R. Nevermind shouldn't be listed before any albums by The Beatles or GN'R, but they are and I'm not going to make a big deal out of it. I could name 100 albums that I think are better than Nevermind but it's not my list but seeing GN'R at #7 makes it a better list in my eyes, compared to like #61 or whatever it was.

Agree 100%. Nirvana = overrated.

wow, what a stupid list.  whoever made that must be really old.  Captain Beefheart and His Magic Band? lmao!  wow wow wow!  Appetite(and Use Your Illusion II) are WAY better than everything on this list(with exception to Nevermind, which isn't better than those 2 GNR albums, but still should be on the top five). 
Have you ever listened to Captain Beefheart, and do you know how many musicians have stated that they've been influenced by his music? Granted, I am more of a fan of Frank Zappa (who has been portrayed inaccurately in RS many times), but I agree with at least having that album on a Top # list.
