From Rolling Stone, the definitive and lavishly illustrated companion book to one of the most popular and hotly debated lists in the world of musicWhen Rolling Stone publishes a list, the world listens. The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time list was first established in 2003 and the lineup was updated in 2012, polling the industry’s most celebrated artists, producers, industry executives, and journalists to create the definitive ranking. As a companion to the original 2003 list, Rolling Stone and Wenner Books published the bestselling 500 Greatest Albums coffee table book. In 2020 Rolling Stone started from scratch with a completely new 500 Greatest Albums list, voted on by the biggest names in music―including Beyoncé, Billie Eilish, and Taylor Swift, to name a few. As expected, the new list caused a huge splash across the music and entertainment industries, sparking major conversation and debate around the list, and generating more than 125 million page views on RollingStone.com in the first month of launch.In partnership with Abrams, Rolling Stone has created the definitive companion book to reflect the all-new 2020 list, telling the stories behind all 500 albums through incredible Rolling Stone photography, original album art, Rolling Stone’s unique critical commentary, breakout pieces on the making of key albums, archival interview content, and a celebrity introduction.

This looks like a great book, bigger than I was expecting! I bought it for a gift so haven’t removed the shrink wrap yet and can’t see inside, but it looks great….Hubby will love it!

Not only £10 cheaper than it’s cover price, but an excellent compendium for an avid music collector since the 60s. Brilliant to see many of my own collection in the Top 20! These selections are always subjective and there is no accounting for taste (no matter how bad in a few of the albums chosen!!). There are still a few more I need to invest in though. Overall a very well presented book; which will be referenced on a regular basis.
