And anything by Kanye West is not better than anything by the Beatles.

I go into it with a preconception that anything released since, say, 1990 can't be any good, that all the hip hop and R&B stuff must be rubbish... but to be honest I've never heard any of those albums. I probably wouldn't like them if I did hear them, but I'm not in any position to judge if they're good or not.
I don't really have any strong feelings about it. It seems a pretty pointless exercise really.
I haven't read it in a while but it always seemed to me that they considered the music to be secondary to their writing, as if musicians did what they did in order to get mentioned by the magazine.
That said, the list is bollocks.
I'm not going to comment on records I haven't heard, but I'd have Kid A and Born To Run in the top 10.
(Realise this may be dodgy ground copyrightwise so I've flagged it with the mods so they can decide)
A lot of albums by the 'greats' beatles, stones, doors etc always seem to have a few good songs on then absolute filler where some later albums which seem to have mostly strong tracks.
REM Out of Time would be top 10 too.
And yes @mrkb The La's is also top 10.... : )
Doolittle is no. 1 btw.

I don't mind their list to be honest it's quite interesting (er .. I've only looked at that top 50, can't be assed to wade through pages of it), but the trouble with Rolling Stone is that they are so biased against some styles of music, they never rate prog or metal for example.
I said maybe.....
