Most influential Aussie album ... AC/DC has topped the list / Supplied
So it`s no surprise that Back In Black has topped a compilation of the 50 Most Influential Australian Albums.
The Bee Gees` Saturday Night Fever soundtrack was nominated as the second most influential Australian record by a panel assembled by GQ magazine.There is bound to be plenty of harrumphing from critics and fans that the Easybeats come in at No. 5, behind The Saints` I`m Stranded and The Birthday Party`s Junkyard.
And the panel may have betrayed their collective age with the majority of the records included in the top 50 from the 1980s to now.
There was only one album from the 1960s - The Loved Ones. The Easybeats` Absolute Anthology was released in 1980.
Johnny O`Keefe is a glaring omission, with The Wild One celebrating its 50th anniversary this year.
Several artists were also asked to nominate the records they considered influential on their generation with The Living End frontman Chris Cheney citing You Am I`s Hourly Daily, and Sydney singer songwriter Josh Pyke selecting Augie March`s Sunset Studies.
