The Piper at the Gates of Dawn
11.  The Piper at the Gates of Dawn by Pink Floyd

Absolution
12.  Absolution by Muse
The list author says:

4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (260 customer reviews)

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan
13.  The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan by Bob Dylan

£3.99   Used & New from: £2.99
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (23 customer reviews)

The Kids Are Alright
14.  The Kids Are Alright by The Who

After the Gold Rush
16.  After the Gold Rush by Neil Young
The list author says:
  "Its impossible to name a "greatest" Neil Young album, so I picked this one to highlight his genius. His high pitched baritone just leaves you aching for more, and the guitar riffs...wow."

4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (38 customer reviews)

Nimrod
17.  Nimrod by Green Day

Bringing It All Back Home
18.  Bringing It All Back Home by Bob Dylan

4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (28 customer reviews)

Ring Of Fire: The Legend Of Johnny Cash
19.  Ring Of Fire: The Legend Of Johnny Cash by Johnny Cash

4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (36 customer reviews)

The War Of The Worlds
20.  The War Of The Worlds by Jeff Wayne

Love And Theft
21.  Love And Theft by Bob Dylan
The list author says:
  "I was expecting to hate this, but cant stop listening to it now. Some of Dylan's finest work since the 70s, combining his lyrics with Jazzy/Bluesy guitar work. Worth buying for "Mississippi" alone."
£5.37   Used & New from: £1.98
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (23 customer reviews)

Sigur Ros - Agaetis Byrjun
22.  Sigur Ros - Agaetis Byrjun by Sigur Rós

Kid A
23.  Kid A by Radiohead
The list author says:
  "Brave, ambitious step away from the mainstream by Radiohead. Sounds brash and offensive at first listen but steadily grows on you. An album thats gonna be remembered for a long, long time"
£5.99   Used & New from: £0.98
4.1 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (413 customer reviews) | 3 customer discussions

24.  The Bootleg Series, Vol. 4 : Bob Dylan Live 1966 (The Royal Albert Hall Concert) by Bob Dylan
The list author says:
  "Full recording from the original tapes. Incredible to hear Dylan play what are now considered classic tracks, and getting heckled by the crowd. The last track makes the hairs on your kneck stand up."

4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (14 customer reviews)

25.  Live 1975: The Rolling Thunder Revue (2CD) by Bob Dylan

£21.24   Used & New from: £7.76
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (5 customer reviews)
