Beatles #2
Another all-time best poll has been taken, this time to determine the all-time greatest album in the UK. And the winner is… Definitely Maybe by Oasis. In second place is Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Heart’s Club Band by The Beatles. Here’s the rest of the list:
3. Revolver, The Beatles
4. OK Computer, Radiohead
5. (What’s The Story) Morning Glory?, Oasis
6. Nevermind, Nirvana
7. The Stone Roses, The Stone Roses
8. Dark Side Of The Moon, Pink Floyd
9. The Queen Is Dead, Smiths
10. The Bends, Radiohead
I’m just as out of touch with UK popular music as I am with North American tastes. I own a copy of Sgt. Pepper and Dark Side, though I rarely listen to either of them. The Stone Roses? Never heard of them, and wouldn’t recognize Radiohead if I did. I could go on, but why bother? I’m old.



I have no idea who Radiohead, The Stone Roses, or Smiths are, and I haven’t willingly listened to Oasis.
And no Rolling Stones?! Let It Bleed should be in the top 3.
