NME Best Albums Of All Time 1974
by WayneMC 
This was the first 'Best Albums Of All Time List'.
Notes: Sgt Pepper and Blonde On Blonde tied for 1st place, Revolver and Highway 61 tied for 4th place.
The 100th placed album was voted for by NME readers and I'm pretty sure that the Rolling Stones' 'Goat's Head Soup' was the winner, although it's possible that it was Mike Oldfield's 'Tubular Bells'. If anyone knows for sure please let me know.

It's surprisingly good considering they only had up to 1974 to choose from.
