That said, we’ve tried to spread the wealth around, not favoring one genre of rock over another. We have (or will) have other lists for that. We’ve also left off certain genres, like electronica and acoustic singer-songwriter, that are closely related to the rock world but not really part of it. (A few entries do fall into the R&B realm, but with so much of a rock sound that they had to be here). Which means, you won’t find a lot of blues, country, or R&B on this list, even though we realize how important they were as rock influences. This list adheres to a fairly narrow definition of “rock,” confining it to largely guitar-based music, and making exceptions only in a few cases where the album was too important to leave off. After many hours of head-scratching and more than a few worn grooves, we present one of the most ambitious and hopefully provocative lists we’ve ever done: The 100 Greatest Rock Albums of all time.Ī few ground rules here: We’ve tried to cover the entirety of rock history, while making sure that each album still sounds great a few years after its release.
