Is Fleetwood Mac's landmark album "Rumours" better than "To Pimp a Butterfly" by Kendrick Lamar? Should "Tapestry" by Carole King be ranked higher or lower than "Thriller" by Michael Jackson?

Rolling Stone magazine has some answers in a new book that's sure to spark conversations — "The 500 Greatest Albums of All Time." It's where you'll find that Bruce Springsteen's "Born to Run" fittingly sits just ahead of "Ready to Die" by The Notorious B.I.G., at No. 21 and No. 22, respectively.
