Lycka is a 1970 album released by folk/rock duo Björn Ulvaeus & Benny Andersson, who later became the male half of ABBA. Most of the songs feature lead vocals by Björn. The songs show the influence of Brian Wilson, "Ticket to Ride"-era Beatles and traditional Swedish folk music.
- The Marshall Mathers LP (2000) If The Slim Shady LP turned Eminem into both a star and a magnet for controversy, then nothing could have prepared anyone for just how far Mathers would push it on the follow-up.
- The Slim Shady LP (1999) An album that dropped like a neutron bomb on the music scene upon arrival in 1999, decades later The Slim Shady LP still doesn’t sound like anything else.
- The Eminem Show (2002) By the time his fourth album came around, Eminem was just too big to fail. The Eminem Show topped the charts in 19 different countries and became his best-selling album, and its creator was effectively now the biggest artist on the planet.
- Recovery (2010) After the misfiring Relapse, Eminem decided to head towards a more personal, introspective lyrical bent. The result wasn’t only one of his most candid and emotionally raw records, but one absolutely stacked with bangers; the likes of Cold Wind Blows, Talkin’ To Myself, Not Afraid and 25 To Life boast hooks big enough to snag a killer whale.
It all depends on how much filler the album has. A 30 minute album can feel like hours if the album has a couple of good tracks and is fattened up with filler. A 90 minute album can feel much shorter if the material is consistently good enough to justify the length.
- Quadrophenia (1973) The band are on fire. The ensemble interplay that accompanies Roger Daltrey’s bullish. career-topping vocal performance is only ever stunning.
- Who’s Next (1971) Having ultimately abandoned his long-promised Meher Baba-inspired Lifehouse project, Townshend asset-stripped its constituent parts for Who’s Next, and while it’s tempting to harbour a romantic notion of what could have been, the relative simplicity of a traditional nine-track album setting seems to suit the proposed Lifehouse material perfectly well.
- Meaty Beaty Big And Bouncy (1971) A cornerstone of any early seventies record collection, ‘60s hit compilation Meaty Beaty Big And Bouncy provided irrefutable proof that throughout the previous decade The Who were not just a singles band but one of the world’s best.
- Tommy (1969) Always more ‘important’ than satisfying, Tommy talks a better game than it delivers. Again produced under enormous pressure, while the band teetered on the brink of onstage auto-destruction hastened bankruptcy (all that smashed gear, much of it hired, racked up king’s ransoms of debt) the creative hothouse of the late sixties demanded back-to-back releases and full-tilt progression as standard.

- Hybrid Theory (2000) With some bands there is a debate to be had about what is their finest work, but with Linkin Park, there’s no argument to be had.
- Meteora (2003) If there were any worries about Linkin Park’s ability to follow up the gigantic success of Hybrid Theory in 2003, they were dispensed as soon as the jagged riff that powers Meteora’s opening track Don’t Stay kicked in.
- Minutes To Midnight (2007) Minutes To Midnight was a transitional album, marking the shift between Linkin Park’s nu metal past and their more experimental, electronic-based future.
- Collision Course (2004) Recorded for the self-explanatory MTV Ultimate Mash-Ups, a show which brought together artists from different musical spheres.
Yeah you nailed it. Definitely his easiest album to listen to. The beats are immaculate. It perfectly executes what he set out to do with the album, it was pretty revolutionary in it's own way when you think about it, the lyrics are some of Kanye's best.
