Now, with revealing notes by some of today's finest music writers 25 Albums That Rocked the World celebrated some of the legendary albums that became cultural landmarks as well as treasured musical touchtones for generations of rock fans. Featured albums include: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band * Blonde on Blonde * Catch a Fire * Never Mind the Bollocks * OK Computer * and more.
