The Fly
Two of the biggest albums (in terms of art) of the 90's. Most popular magazine rankings show both albums in high positions, Rolling stone's 500 best albums of all time has achtung at position 62 while OK is at 162.
At rateyourmusic.com the difference is kind of ridiculous, Ok computer comes in as third best album of all time, AB is at postion 1508...When only the 90's are considered, Ok is at position 1, AB ranks 273rd. WTF?
While Ok computer has evident artistic merits, Achtung baby is at least equally good and should actually be up there with the best albums of all time. My personal all time best list has the top positions fluctuating between Achtung Baby, Blue Bell Knoll / victorialand (cocteau twins), revolver/abbey road/white album/sgt pepper, and sorry about this one, The soul cages by STing, which has outstanding production and is sort of a non-commercial concept album.
