Really? I like 99 Problems and Jay-Z's later collaborations with Alicia Keys and Mr. Hudson - Empire State of Mind and Forever Young respectively - but have yet to make the step-up and actually purchase one of his albums. I could read reviews on Amazon or view videos on YouTube, but it'd be more fun to hear the opinion of a fellow Stones fan: so, shoot!

60's -  The Beatles/Abbey Road    2nd - Dylan/Blonde On Blonde  3rd - Dylan/Highway 61 Revisited

00's - The Red Hot Chili Peppers/By The Way  2nd - Social Distortion/Sex, Love & Rock 'n' Roll   3rd - Dylan/Love & Theft

50s: Not a big decade for LPs. Only Elvis and a few others put out great ones for the big stars of the era.

60s:
1. Pet Sounds- Beach Boys
2. Blonde on Blonde- Bob Dylan
3. Revolver- Beatles/ Astral Weeks-Van Morrison (just can't pick one over the other and how can you not have a Beatle album in the top 3!?)

70s:
1. Exile on Main Street-Stones
2. Blood on the Tracks-Dylan
3. Rust Never Sleeps-Neil Young

80s:
1. London Calling (We'll give it 80s status so it has less to compete with)
2. Let it Be-The Replacements (Helll yes!)
3. It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold us Back-Public Enemy (seriously artistic gangsta rap represent! 90% of what passes for hip-hop today pales next to this righteous shit!)

90s:
1. Car Wheels-Lucinda (Gotta side with Gazza on this one)
2. Nevermind-Nirvana
3. Ok Computer-Radiohead

00s:
1. Love & Theft-Dylan
2. Smile-Brian Wilson
3. White Blood Cells-White Stripes

(This last decade is the one I listen to least so my list isn't as educated on that one, hehe. Not totally up to my 90s knowledge either but have listened to a ton of 60s-80s albums).
