44. Pink Floyd – Animals (1977)
The great forgotten masterpiece. Forgotten and most guitar-oriented and firmly rocking of Floyd’s four consecutive masterworks.
45. Fleetwood Mac – Rumours (1977)
From greatest turmoil comes greatest art, it is always said. Maybe so, maybe not. But in the case of this crazy quintet, interpersonal strife leads to one of history’s great pop albums.
46. Paul Simon – Graceland (1986)
One of the world’s great songwriters reinvents the wheel. Paul Simon words and voice, 80s sounds and abundant African influences and contributions combine for a seminal pop masterpiece.
47. R.E.M – Murmur (1983)
R.E.M’s sensational, fun, energetic, jangle pop meets alternative rock debut. The college radio rock masterpiece of the 80s.
