55. The Beatles - Rubber Soul

The start of the Beatles holy trinity, this album goes a long way to showing why The Beatles are loved, not only by their fans, but by music critics and all. Imagine a band like McFly suddenly producing something that Radiohead were capable of, and you'll understand how innovative the Beatles were at their peak. The album is packed full of brilliant tracks, and musical perfection.

50. Bob Dylan - Bringing It All Back Home

Release Date: 1965
Label: Columbia

At his peak Bob Dylan was a fucking genius. In 2002 I bought a Greatest Hits compilation and it took me ten seconds of Subterannean Homesick Blues to realise that. Everything about this album is worth discussing - the electric/acoustic split, his voice, the fact that the lyrics piss over anything John Lennon or Paul McCartney could ever dream of writing. This album is the sound of Bob Dylan climbing to the top of the mountain, and he hasn't yet reached the peak.

Rating: 10/10
Favourite Track: Love Minus Zero/No Limit
