Well, without going too deep into individual breakdowns, Blood Sugar Sex Magic is RHCP's magnum opus & ranked #11 on Brian's 1990s list.

Maybe I'm underrating Blood Sugar Sex Magik's influence but isn't it kinda high, and in greater company? It seems all of those albums are more influential, and most are also more acclaimed. And there are albums still to appear, like In the Court of the Crimson King, or Stand! (right above it on the 1969 list), which beat it in influence and acclaim.


I don't think any artist had taken that kind of funk/rap/alternative to that level of popularity prior to BloodSugarSexMagik, so I'd credit it with influencing combinations of hard rock/alternative with funk/rap that followed. I think at least, it's more influential than Harvest. It also is perhaps more popular than any of the albums listed behind it, and holds its own in acclaim. The most acclaimed album in that group, Daydream Nation, is the least popular.

Stand! and In the Court of the Crimson King are certainly worthy albums too though, and I think they can be considered in this company.

Don't have a list made yet but I would exclude The Freewheelin Bob Dylan from this revision altogether. I don't think it's generally viewed to be a rock album.

Well Yesterday is considered a rock song. So I think the general rule is that if it's from a rock artist it counts.

Post subject:  Re: Greatest Rock Albums of All Time

I think these are different cases tbh. If Dylan never released another album after Freewheelin he won't be considered a rock artist. He was firmly in a folk genre camp then. Yesterday is just about the only non-rock song by Beatles.

So "Here There And Everywhere" is rock? Eleanor Rigby?

Probably not. But Beatles were always a rock band occasionally branching out to other genres while Dylan started as pure folk singer then moved into rock. Do you have a take on Freewheelin being on greatest rock albums list, Bruce?

I don't have a problem with it.

What other folk artists are counted as rock?

The Freewheelin question is interesting. My memory is that if you look at interviews of Dylan from around the time of the first two albums, it's clear that he doesn't really consider himself an authentic "folk as folk" artist but more as a pop (perhaps "pop/rock?") artist who is using a folk idiom to dress his tunes up in.

Just stopping to complain again that Hot Rats was excluded for not being rock enough
