    Use Your Illusion II should be on top of that stack, though.. as the king of that stack!

    They are ALMOST arranged in the order they were released...with two of the final three coming out on the same day!  Badmotorfinger was also supposed to come out on 9/24/91, but production was delayed.  1991 was a fabulous year for music and not just because TEN was released.  I actually taught a college writing course with the music of 1991 as the subject of the course.  One of the most enjoyable moments of my teaching career.

    As much as I love every one of those albums, if I could only pick one, at this point in my life, it would be Badmotorfinger.

    For the majority of time since then I would have said Ten.  When they first released, it was GnR.

    That was the argument I presented to students in the class I taught, but I expanded it to "music's greatest year." Choose any genre and there were some monumental releases in 1991.  Expand your thinking a little further - what was being recorded in 1991 and came out a year later.  When I presented my course idea to my institutional colleagues (new courses have to be approved by the full faculty), one veteran professor declared: "You are off by 20 years!"  He did/still does have a valid argument for 1971.  Look it up or better yet, read: Never A Dull Moment: 1971 - The Year That Rock Exploded.  I doubt anyone will ever have a valid argument for 2011.
