You can hear the 90's coming. Lots of good music there--I'll have to re-evaluate that decade.

Worst album of the lot: #100, Mozart's Requiem. Nothing wrong with the composition--it's a breathtaking piece. But the conductor gets my vote for worst musician of all time--in a moral rather than technical sense (yes, even worse than Ted Nugent). von Karajan was literally a Nazi (and in some of the albums just after the war you can still hear the authoritarianism in his conducting).
