200 greatest pop albums of all time

[Entre_Perpetuo]

You know how these threads work, let’s not waste too much time debating the meaning of pop. Thriller is, Reign In Blood isn’t. Simple spectrum. Let’s go!

 

1. Cyndi Lauper - She’s So Unusual

 

Every cut is vivacious and expertly performed, and most are really cleverly written as well. Pop at its ecstatic, slightly quirky best!

11) Rolling Stones - Some Girls

 

While it's a very popular album I wouldn't classify this album as pop. It's straight up Stones rock and roll.

I know, There are quite a few albums on here that make me think the thread is using “pop” literally.

You could make a case for Miss You, Beast Of Burden, and even Shattered being pop. The rest is pretty much rock, blues, and country though.
