Não há nada mais controverso do que listas. Assim que uma
revista publica uma lista – seja o assunto que for – imediatamente grupos e
mais grupos de pessoas se organizam para criticar, pedir por gente que foi
esquecida e por aí vai. Quando o assunto é música, a coisa fica ainda pior e os
nervos ainda mais exaltados. Pois bem. Mesmo sabendo de tudo isso, a
Entertainment Weekly decidiu organizar sua compilação com os 100 maiores discos
da história da música. Uma surpresa nós já adiantamos: o aclamado álbum Sgt
Peppers Lonely Heats Club Band, que mudou a trajetória dos Beatles (e da
música) ficou de fora.
Bem, a lista completa você confere abaixo. Ela está na
ordem decrescente para não estragar logo de cara as surpresas. Mas elas
existem. Por exemplo, o rapper Kanye West no famoso Top 10. Confira:
