The
Virgin Top 100 albums is in; not surprisingly, baby boomer acts like
the Beatles, the Rolling Stones and Bob Dylan dominate, tempered by
heavily-marketed 90s alternative (Nirvana, Oasis, Alanis Morissette).
There are a few good acts there (The Smiths made the list a couple of times,
and The Cure's
Disintegration is also on there; My Bloody Valentine's
Loveless also makes an appearance, not surprisingly, though I've always
thought Slowdive were more listenable.)
