#80 something of the 70's.....hey, I actually agree with that, though Aladdin Sane should be #90 something, not higher than Ziggy.

Heroes and Low should be in the top 50.

these are the main differences to the 2005 RS chart:

Chronicle - Creedence Clearwater Revival - new in the top 100 at 59
Kid A - Radiohead new in the top 100 at 67
Graceland up to 71 (from 84)

Dropping out of the top 100:
Let It Be - The Beatles
Green River - Creedence Clearwater Revival

61　Sly & The Family Stone – Greatest Hits

Why? It's not an album is it.

Overall a pretty dull list, lot's of good albums, but still dull.

There are some big changes later on in the list, but yeah, the top 50 is 100% identical to the 2005 one.

Good for you, Rolling Stone, forever proving you're staffed by opinion-deficient trained chimps.

OK Computer really climbed in the last seven years, though. Up almost 300 points? Pretty wild shift.

And Sunrise and Complete Recordings had already been added in the 2005 revision, so they are not NEW additions. Same goes for some other changes.

I've found that when people talk about some of the changes on the 2012 list, they don't know that some of these changes had been made in 2005.

These are familiar great classic albums, but not boring. 🙄
