From 1 to 500, here’s the full list with no commentary.

The songs of our favorite album were performed a year before its release, prompting one critic to describe the work as “bringing tears to the eyes. It was so completely understanding and musically questioning.”

Our #2 favorite album sees the Beatles come together one last time with long-time collaborator George Martin before reaching the end of their musical journey

21 tracks across 3 vinyl discs, 130 musicians, and the largest recording deal to date come with our third favorite album of all time.

Our fifth favorite album has the most individual nominations (8) of any on the list. Amazingly, the lush sounds on this record are almost all the work of the singular artist, with few contributions from other musicians.
