A 21st Century landmark, Dark Fantasy finds Kanye at his genre-bending best. A true present-day rock star, Kanye embodies all the contradictions and absurdities that define our time. And Dark Fantasy is his most soul-bearing work, embracing his genius and foolishness with equal measure.

My favorites will surely be very different than yours, but that's what makes The White Album so brilliant and so compelling. There's something here for everyone to like (and dislike: Piggies is far and away my least favorite Beatles song).

Favorites: While My Guitar Gently Weeps, Happiness Is A Warm Gun, I'm So Tired, Birthday, Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except Me And My Monkey, Helter Skelter [First added to this chart: 05/22/2015]
