I don't own any of them.
-
I own three of them: Amy Winehouse Arcade Fire Radiohead I think I'll be fine in the 21st Century not owning the other 18.
-
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.
-
Hey! I haven't released any album yet!
-
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.

I don't know that the amount of money an album made should disqualify that album from a list of amazing albums.

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. -
Oh i feel rather "with it" as i own a few albums on this list Radiohead, The white stripes, Arcade Fire Lady Gaga Oh yes i can get funky now

For that list, the amount of sales is rather irrelevant. If sales isn't irrelevant in OUR lists, I can't help but worry.
