            The only album I have from that list is Adele's album 21 .......and that isn't as good as her 19 album, which suggests to me just how useless that list is.

            Wembley Empire Pool, London  (Wings) 21st October 1976.

            'Take It Away' video shoot Elstree studios, London 23rd June 1982.

            'Give My Regards To Broad Street' film premier, London 29th November 1984.

            Docklands Arena rehearsal concert, London 5th February 1993.

            Run Devil Run launch party, Equinox Club, London 30th September 1999.

            O2 Arena, London 22nd December 2009.

            O2 Arena, London 5th December 2011.

                i think it`s common sense that Funeral is Arcade Fire`s best album, and not the suburbs; but maybe "essential" also means super-sucessful; then it`d be okay, since the suburbs is also very good, but surely not as indie as funeral

                    I think they are the "essential albums" for the record labels. The ones that have made them earn more money, that's all.

                                        It depends on who made the list. "15 milion copies! Amazing! Milions of $!" For instance the Grammies are about that. An album must have sold a very high number of copies to be nominated these days (so a lot of money being made) and the winners use to be the ones that have generated more income to the record labels.

                                            Some of us were talking about OUR essential albums. For that list, the amount of sales is rather irrelevant. If sales isn't irrelevant in OUR lists, I can't help but worry.
