It's like a karmic joke, having the first thing I see after that last post be another Byrds album.
It's weird seeing these Rolling Stones albums of lesser renown pop up so high. Of course, part of that is undoubtedly the disparate nature between the UK and US releases - I don't think the UK version of Out of Our Heads had "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" on it. Still, the "big four" have not shown up, and we've only got 110 albums left.
I never really liked The Who Sell Out. I do think it's hilarious that perhaps the best known song from that album - "I Can See for Miles" - is now used in commercials.
If You Can Believe Your Eyes and Ears is probably the best American album that came about as a response to the British invasion. California Dreamin' is one of the top... 50 songs ever? Maybe higher? Such a classic.
The Bends > OK Computer > Amnesiac > In Rainbows. Not bad, Rolling Stone. Not bad.
