Rolling Stone Magazine posted yet another "10 Greatest Albums Of The Rock Era" lists. Nobody agrees with it.
There are only so many ways to express the reality that it is nearly impossible for any popular art form to register the same to any generation other than the one that produced it.
If it does, it is with a doppler effect of distortion advancing ahead and trailing behind it. Even if a next generation embraces the art, it won't be for the same reasons. The art won't elicit identical feelings down the line.
And it will be re- and re- and re- interpreted if the original art said much of anything at all to begin with
