Melhores e Maiores - Mais Listas

Escolher os trabalhos definitivos lançados entre 1980 e 1989 não é tarefa das mais simples. Ainda assim, a equipe da revista Classic Rock aceitou o desafio e publicou uma lista com os 100 melhores álbuns da década.

A seleção reúne nomes de diferentes vertentes, como Black Sabbath, Metallica, Iron Maiden, Van Halen, David Bowie, Def Leppard, AC/DC, Motörhead, Judas Priest, Queen, Pink Floyd, Rush, Scorpions, Venom e Faith No More. Um dos critérios adotados pelos autores estabelece que cada artista aparece apenas uma vez.

No topo aparece um dos maiores clássicos do Black Sabbath, banda pioneira do heavy metal. Confira abaixo a lista completa.
