(Idolator.com) The National Assn. of Record Merchandisers and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame unveiled a list of 200 albums that belong in everybody's CD collection titled the Definitive 200 that will be used as a marketing tool at big box outlets (Wal-Mart, K mart, Best Buy), chain music shops (Virgin, Trans World outlets), indie CD stores (Cheap Thrills in new Brunswick, N.J.*, J&R in New Yok, Newbury Comics in Boston, Zia in Phoenix, Ariz., and Waterloo in Austin, Texas) and online sites (Amazon, Overstock).
Campaign is starting with 75 retailers signed up.

The list has the usual suspects -- the Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band," Pink Floyd's "Dark Side Of The Moon" and Michael Jackson's "Thriller" are the top three -- but unlike most album lists, this one was compiled by retailers.[because everyone knows that Creed's "Human Clay" is far better than most CDs ever released.. see full story for more] - Click here for the Full Story
