If you are a bit older this is an impossible question to answer - 70's I was into pop so Meatloaf- Bat out of Hell/Fleetwood Mac-Rumours. 80's I grew out of it so The Smiths by The Smiths or Elvis Costello - My Aim is true, 90's - Nevermind by Nirvana - If pushed it would be the latter, but I really love The Nylon Curtain by Billy Joel and pretty much every Springsteen album ever written. I'm surprised Chubbs hasn't been on to vote for Definately Maybe by Oasis

Ella Fitzgerald Sings The Cole Porter Songbook (1956) is the best album I've heard.
Of the others people have mentioned I like Pet Sounds and Innervisions the most.

Yeah but you all know it's Grace by Jeff Buckley, even if you don't know.

That Top 100 Albums prog was utter bollocks. How on earth can Radiohead (in whatever shape or whining form) or The Joshua Tree (reasonable though I think it is) ever be "more progressive and inspiring" albums than Sgt. Peppers or Dark Side Of The Moon or even Nevermind? I don't care if anybody doesn't like them they are true landmarks in the history of music. Oh and I thought Thriller was deservedly in the top ten

I dont see how Nevermind is considered pivotal in musical history at all.
Was music different because of Nevermind...nope,
Is the music that Nirvana made massively different to stuff before it..nope
All it did was spawn a load of scruffy fuck 20 somethings for a year or so and allowed even bigger piles of shit like Pearl Jam to chart.They spawned a scene,so did they Bay City Rollers are they also a pivotal band in music history?
