I`m sure they said it was the Stone Roses debut last year.

right-track · 12-23-2006, 01:13 PM

Here's the full list;

1. 'Definitely Maybe' - Oasis
2. 'Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band' - The Beatles
3. 'Revolver' - The Beatles
4. 'OK Computer' - Radiohead
5. '(What's The Story) Morning Glory?' - Oasis
6. 'Nevermind' - Nirvana
7. 'The Stone Roses' - The Stone Roses
8. 'Dark Side Of The Moon' - Pink Floyd
9. 'The Queen Is Dead' - The Smiths
10. 'The Bends' - Radiohead
11. 'The Joshua Tree' - U2
12. 'London Calling' - The Clash
13. 'The Beatles (The White Album)' - The Beatles
14. 'Abbey Road' - The Beatles
15. 'Up The Bracket' - The Libertines
16. 'Never Mind The Bollocks Here's The Sex Pistols' - Sex Pistols
17. 'Four Symbols (Led Zeppelin IV)' - Led Zeppelin
18. 'The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars' - David Bowie
19. 'A Night At The Opera' - Queen
20. 'Is This It' - The Strokes

I think 'Definately Maybe' is a great album and by far the best Oasis produced, but nowhere near the best ever.
It wouldn't even figure in my personal top 100.
If I had a top 20, only Bowie's 'Ziggy Stardust' would figure in it.
It is a personal taste thing Mikey...but seriously 'Definately Maybe' at number 1...WTF!

I don't see why Definitely maybe couldn't be at number one, if we're going by personal taste that is. It's only because there's a widespred prejudice of anything produced after 1990 topping any all time chart. Why, because no great music has been made ever since? Does an album really have to be at least 30 years old to be deemed the best of all time? Is it because all the leading music journalists are geezers that never got over The beatles breaking up?

That being said, I would put Nirvana's Nevermind on number one, breakthough factor included, and overall influence on music and pop culture, which Definitely maybe, with respect to brit pop, didn't acomplish.

Oh and do I see 4 albums by The beatles in the top 20? *yawn*

Well it would help to include them in the overall picture, when it comes down to a best of all time chart.
I'd say the average 18 year old with a modicum of taste, would be able to pick at least 20 albums before even considering 'Definately Maybe'.
Really these charts shouldn't include the term, "all time", in them.
To do so, only makes it laughable and hard to take seriously, judging by some of the albums included in that list.

Word.

Again it well illustrates how different Urbans musicial view is from mine, I've tried getting into some of the bands Urban likes, and Super Furry Animals, Primal Scream and Aphex Twin aside I don't like any of it... I recall listening to Pulp, and then trying to get someone to euthanize me afterwards.
