BTW whenever a classic rock radio station has a countdown for the 100 greatest
albums of all time (based on votes from the listeners), John, Paul and George
each have one solo album that makes the list. John's Imagine, Paul's Band On
The Run, and George's All Things Must Pass always earns a spot on these
countdowns. Every Beatle album from Help to Let It Be except Magical Mystery
Tour (which would make my list) and Yellow Submarine also appears on these
lists. Keep in mind that albums by James Brown, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder,
Curtis Mayfield, Bob Marley, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Prince and Nirvana
aren't eligible for these "100 greatest album" countdowns because they're not
classic rock artists.
>Plastic Ono Band should have been on the list
While Plastic Ono Band is the popular choice by diehard John fans in rmb and
the music industry, the public at large doesn't consider it to be even the best
John Lennon album. Classic rock fans always rank Imagine as his best album
according to polls and surveys.
