Rolling Stone 100 Greatest ex-Yugoslavia albums 1955-2015 (2015)

[Pierre]

Yeah, it's a thing. I've been looking for lists from Eastern Europe, and I wasn't very lucky. In terms of ex-Yugoslavia, there's a couple important songs lists, but they were chosen by readers. I've finally stumbled unto an eligible list, it's an album list, and it was done by our favourite worldwide magazine, Rolling Stone themselves. Perhaps I should update my old Rolling Stone world tour topic I did eons ago. Anyway, here's the list, compiled by 13 critics. I found it here:

It looks like for rock music, Croatia and serbia steal the show.

There's another top 100 list from Ex-Yu as they call it, named "YU 100: najbolji albumi jugoslovenske rok i pop muzike" that I will probably post tomorrow as well. I have vague memories of it having been posted already, but I can't find any trace of it. Maybe it was on the old forum.

another great list , forgotten
