Written by top UK and US music journalists, and including a preface by Michael Lydon, the founding editor of Rolling Stone magazine, this book celebrates
the great and ground-breaking albums throughout the eras - from the
genesis of Fifties rock 'n' roll to the technological and electronic
innovations of the 21st century.
Each entry includes key tracks and explains exactly why each of these
albums deserved to be included in the list, offering an insight into the
process of their creation, development, and success.
With albums from Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, Miles Davis, The Rolling
Stones, Bob Dylan, The Sex Pistols, ACDC, the Beach Boys,
Sonic Youth, Jack White, Green Day, and
the latest from David Bowie, Beyonc, Taylor Swift and The War On Drugs, 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before
You Die is the single
most comprehensive list of music that changed the world.
Illustrated
with more than 900 iconic images of album covers, bands and artists, as
well as photographs from many legendary gigs, this is an absolute
must-have for the musically inspired.
