Annoyingly, and continuing the intellectual snobbery around albums, the list is only albums. I hate albums. 95% of them are a great single and twelve crap tracks, invented by the generation before mine to sell vinyl. No musical motive at all.
Yes there are "concept" albums (I made one - the first Genesis one). Valid. And greatest hits "collections" (I approve of collections - not "albums").
But generally singles are the essential vital life blood of our industry. And great singles don't even necessarily have "artistes".
