most influence on American music as well as music artists within the industry....some of the albums are best sellers and some are obscure, some are known for its content and some are known for their  album covers..some developed trends in music and some rode the waves of the trends...there are some artists listed who have more than one album listed below (Prince, Miles Davis, Sly and the Family Stone)....the oldest is a blues Robert Johnson compilation (recorded in the 1930s) the newest is "Channel Orange" from Frank Ocean (2012).....below listed alphabetically are our choices....
