Abbey Road»rank: 142by: The Beatles
: essential recording:The Beatles' last days as a band were as productive as any major pop phenomenon that was about to split. After recording the ragged-but-right Let lt Be, the group held on for this ambitious effort, an album that was to become their best-selling. Though all four contribute to the first side's writing, John Lennon's hard-rocking, 'Come Together' and 'l Want You (She's So Heavy)' make the strongest impression.

Dark Side Of The Moon»rank: 355by: Pink Floyd
: :Limited Edition Japanese pressing of this album comes housed in a miniature LP sleeve. 2008. essential recording:Dark Side of the Moon, originally released in 1973, is one of those albums that is discovered anew by each generation of rock listeners.

The Wall (Deluxe Packaging Digitally Remastered)»rank: 305by: Pink Floyd
: Essential Recording:The Wall is less a collection of songs than a single work, which is sometimes frustrating; the plot lacks enough coherence to hold the snippets of music together. However, there are occasional flashes of brilliance on what ranks as Pink Floyd's most ambitious project. Most of these come from the fully developed songs, which have become classics in their own right. 'Hey You,' 'Mother,' and especially 'Comfortably Numb' are subtle, incredible pieces of music. Though complex, they move at ... |
