1	Abbey Road (1969) more music like this by The Beatles The last Beatles album to be recorded (although Let It Be was the last to be released), Abbey Road was a fitting swan song for the group, echoing some of the faux-conceptual forms of Sgt. Pepper, but featuring stronger compositions and more rock-oriented ensemble work. The group was still pushing forward in all facets of its art, whether devising ... see all copies from £4.06! new only from £8.28!
2	The Beatles [White Album] (1968) more music like this by The Beatles Each song on the sprawling double album The Beatles is an entity to itself, as the band touches on anything and everything it can. This makes for a frustratingly scattershot record or a singularly gripping musical experience, depending on your view, but what makes the so-called White Album interesting is its mess. Never before had a rock record ... see all copies from £13.90! new only from £13.90!
3	Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (1967) more music like this by The Beatles With Revolver, the Beatles made the Great Leap Forward, reaching a previously unheard-of level of sophistication and fearless experimentation. Sgt. Pepper, in many ways, refines that breakthrough, as the Beatles consciously synthesized such disparate influences as psychedelia, art-song, classical music, rock & roll, and music hall, often in the ... see all copies from £5.25! new only from £7.57!
4	Led Zeppelin (1969) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin had a fully formed, distinctive sound from the outset, as their eponymous debut illustrates. Taking the heavy, distorted electric blues of Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, and Cream to an extreme, Zeppelin created a majestic, powerful brand of guitar rock constructed around simple, memorable riffs and lumbering rhythms. But the key to the ... see all copies from £2.78! new only from £9.15!
5	Back in Black (1980) more music like this by AC/DC The first sound on Back in Black is the deep, ominous drone of church bells -- or "Hell's Bells," as it were, opening the album and AC/DC's next era with a fanfare while ringing a fond farewell to Bon Scott, their late lead singer who partied himself straight to hell. But this implies that Back in Black is some kind of tribute to Scott, which may ... see all copies from £3.48! new only from £7.65!
6	Hot Rocks, 1964-1971 (1972) more music like this by The Rolling Stones This two-LP/two-CD set is both a lot more and a bit less than what it seems. It is seven years' worth of mostly very high-charting -- and all influential and important -- songs, leaving out some singles in favor of well-known album tracks, and in the process, giving an overview not just of the Rolling Stones' hits but of their evolving image. One ... see all copies from £4.87! new only from £13.88!
7	1967-1970 (1973) more music like this by The Beatles Picking up where 1962-1966 left off, the double-album compilation 1967-1970, commonly called The Blue Album, covers the Beatles' later records, from Sgt. Pepper through Let It Be. Like The Red Album, The Blue Album contains a mixture of hits, including singles like "Lady Madonna," "Hey Jude," and "Revolution" that were never included on an LP, ... see all copies from £6.16! new only from £12.69!
8	Led Zeppelin IV (1971) more music like this by Led Zeppelin Encompassing heavy metal, folk, pure rock & roll, and blues, Led Zeppelin's untitled fourth album is a monolithic record, defining not only Led Zeppelin but the sound and style of '70s hard rock. Expanding on the breakthroughs of III, Zeppelin fuse their majestic hard rock with a mystical, rural English folk that gives the record an epic scope. ... see all copies from £4.73! new only from £8.77!
9	Rock N Roll Jesus (2007) more music like this by Kid Rock see all copies from £10.79! new only from £10.79!
10	Appetite for Destruction (1987) more music like this by Guns N' Roses Guns N' Roses' debut, Appetite for Destruction was a turning point for hard rock in the late '80s -- it was a dirty, dangerous, and mean record in a time when heavy metal meant nothing but a good time. On the surface, Guns N' Roses may appear to celebrate the same things as their peers -- namely, sex, liquor, drugs, and rock & roll -- but there is ... see all copies from £4.12! new only from £8.16!
11 view cover	Disraeli Gears (1967) more music like this by Cream Cream teamed up with producer Felix Pappalardi for their second album, Disraeli Gears, a move that helped push the power trio toward psychedelia and also helped give the album a thematic coherence missing from the debut. This, of course, means that Disraeli Gears gets further away from the pure blues improvisatory troupe they were intended to be, ... see all copies from £2.78! new only from £6.95!
12 view cover	Boston (1976) more music like this by Boston Boston is one of the best-selling albums of all time, and deservedly so. Because of the rise of disco and punk, FM rock radio seemed all but dead until the rise of acts like Boston, Tom Petty, and Bruce Springsteen. Nearly every song on Boston's debut album could still be heard on classic rock radio decades later due to the strong vocals of Brad ... see all copies from £2.78! new only from £9.09!
13 view cover	The Wall (1979) more music like this by Pink Floyd This is Roger Waters's two-disc meditation on the travails of a rock star, whose unhappy life causes him to build a psychological barrier between himself and the rest of the world. Contains the number one hit "Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2)" and the concert favorite "Comfortably Numb" (cowritten by David Gilmour). William Ruhlmann, All Music ... see all copies from £7.94! new only from £12.69!
14 view cover	...And Justice for All (1988) more music like this by Metallica The most immediately noticeable aspect of ...And Justice for All isn't Metallica's still-growing compositional sophistication or the apocalyptic lyrical portrait of a society in decay. It's the weird, bone-dry production. The guitars buzz thinly, the drums click more than pound, and Jason Newsted's bass is nearly inaudible. It's a shame that the ... see all copies from £6.96! new only from £8.85!
15 view cover	Let There Be Rock (1977) more music like this by AC/DC Let There Be Rock, the fourth AC/DC album -- and first to see simultaneous international release -- is as lean and mean as the original lineup ever got. Shaved down to the bone -- there are only eight tracks, giving this a lethal efficiency even with a couple of meandering jams -- this is a high-voltage, brutal record, filled with "Bad Boy Boogie. ... see all copies from £5.74! new only from £10.22!
16 view cover	Janis Joplin's Greatest Hits [Bonus Tracks] (1999) more music like this by Janis Joplin A solid, if skimpy, ten-track best-of that gathers the most important songs from Janis Joplin's solo career, as well as her stint with Big Brother & the Holding Company. The compilation 18 Essential Songs offers a wider selection, but does not include the original version of "Me and Bobby McGee," which makes Greatest Hits the better purchase for ... see all copies from £2.78! new only from £4.96!
17 view cover	The Hits (1988) more music like this by REO Speedwagon Over the course of the 1980s, REO Speedwagon became one of the decade's leading power balladeers. However, these singles sapped the band's reputation as a rock & roll band. Although it may focus more on ballads such as "Time for Me to Fly," "Keep on Loving You," and "Can't Fight This Feeling," Hits does not completely overlook the band's rock ... see all copies from £2.78! new only from £6.35!
18 view cover	Blind Faith (1969) more music like this by Blind Faith Blind Faith's first and last album, more than 30 years old and counting, remains one of the jewels of the Eric Clapton, Steve Winwood, and Ginger Baker catalogs, despite the crash-and-burn history of the band itself, which scarcely lasted six months. As much a follow-up to Traffic's self-titled second album as it is to Cream's final output, it ... see all copies from £6.39! new only from £6.39!
19 view cover	High Voltage (1976) more music like this by AC/DC One of the perennial complaints about AC/DC is that they've never changed -- and if that's true, High Voltage is the blueprint they've followed all their career. Comprised of highlights from their first two Australian albums -- 1975's TNT and its 1976 follow-up, also entitled High Voltage -- the album has every single one of AC/DC's archetypes. ... see all copies from £6.35! new only from £6.35!
20 view cover	Metallica (1991) more music like this by Metallica After the muddled production and ultracomplicated song structures of ...And Justice for All, Metallica decided that they had taken the progressive elements of their music as far as they could and that a simplification and streamlining of their sound was in order. While the assessment made sense from a musical standpoint, it also presented an ... see all copies from £3.19! new only from £8.85!
21 view cover	Anthology 3 (1996) more music like this by The Beatles The final installment of the Anthology series has two discs of previously unreleased material from the White Album era through the group's demise in early 1970. In terms of sheer listenability, this may be the strongest volume of the three, if only because it focuses almost solely upon studio recordings rather than mixing live concerts/broadcasts ... see all copies from £6.26! new only from £20.77!
22 view cover	Pyromania (1983) more music like this by Def Leppard While Def Leppard had obviously wanted to write big-sounding anthems on their previous records, Pyromania was where the band's vision coalesced and gelled into something more. More than ever before, the band's songs on Pyromania are driven by catchy, shiny melodic hooks instead of heavy guitar riffs, although the latter do pop up once in a while. ... see all copies from £2.78! new only from £9.13!
23 view cover	461 Ocean Boulevard (1974) more music like this by Eric Clapton 461 Ocean Boulevard is Eric Clapton's second studio solo album, arriving after his side project of Derek and the Dominos and a long struggle with heroin addiction. Although there are some new reggae influences, the album doesn't sound all that different from the rock, pop, blues, country, and R&B amalgam of Eric Clapton. However, 461 Ocean ... see all copies from £2.78! new only from £6.43!
24 view cover	DAUGHTRY (2006) more music like this by DAUGHTRY Everything that made Chris Daughtry insufferable as a contestant on American Idol -- his utter lack of humor, his oppressive earnestness, his desire to sing every song in the same gut-wrenching fashion, a style that only suited the post-grunge brooding that is his chosen specialty -- work for him on his post-Idol debut album, Daughtry. Technically ... see all copies from £5.56! new only from £7.62!
25 view cover	Ride the Lightning (1984) more music like this by Metallica Kill 'Em All may have revitalized heavy metal's underground, but Ride the Lightning was even more stunning, exhibiting staggering musical growth and boldly charting new directions that would affect heavy metal for years to come. Incredibly ambitious for a one-year-later sophomore effort, Ride the Lightning finds Metallica aggressively expanding ... see all copies from £6.92! new only from £8.85!
