Naw, you're takin' that cake with Willie, Dolly and Kenny, you ecletic bastard.

Kenny would not make a top 500 for me, but Willie and Dolly would most likely make a top 200. I don't know if Carole King's lauded Tapestry album would make a top 500, but Joni Mitchell's Blue would figure into a top 200.
And so on...
*(as annoying for me to write as it was annoying to read it)
Look, I know I have no Reich or Xenakis...but damn, there's just too many other great records. Rust Never Sleeps didn't even make it.
No The Runaways, & no Voidoids. I just listened to a '77 Richard Hell and it was okay, but then I relistened to this Hamburg '83 the other day and it's tremendous at times.
Wait until the 1960s when I'm torn between jazz and rock...gonna be tough.
I've stated it before, but David Bowie
is the sound of the seventies. To a lesser extent, Pink Floyd and Led Zep are really up there. And continuing in this fast and loose fashion, those marvelous Pistols who aspired to best them all, albeit in their own way, are irrepressibly landmark.
Maestro Taylor and The Stones are definitely Upper Pantheon...
and so on...*
