this is one of my favorite albums of all time, it still blows my mind after all these years. Pet Sounds is also exuisite.
Daydream Naion by sonic youth might be a good candidate too.

I did, but a bunch of people didnt, because they were comparing it to smiley smile. I think Smile (the entire concept) has the greatest openning ever.
But as far as "changing the face of music", it is hands down Pet Sounds. It is the sole inspiration for Sgt. Peppers and a multitude of pre-rock bands.

And I like Smiley Smile, I think its a realy good and bizzare album.

Id argue one that deffinately wouldnt be on the list is Nevermind.
Why do you say that? Is it just because you don't like the album? Whether you like it or not I don't see how you could deny the profound affect that Nevermind had on the modern rock scene in the early 90's.
I'm also trying to think which album it was that pushed rap-music into the mainstream of American pop culture. About the earliest rap album I can think of that was popular was Run DMC's self titled album in '84. There are earlier examples but this was the first one I remember being big. Am I missing one?

Blonde on Blonde is pretty good, but Id say Highway 61 Revisited deserves the spot a bit more.
Ha you assume I dont like Nevermind because I wont put it on the list of albums that changed the face of music. It didnt change the face of music, it sounds very similar to what a lot of other bands were doing around that time, and before them.
I think Cabaret Voltaire might deserve a nod on the list.

my bad, I thought I read "changed the face of rock" not music. that make this a whole different thread then.
how about what shpongle has been doing?
eminem (not a fan, but it did stir some shit up)
or how about the way soundtribe sector nine has expanded the confines of jam music, or the way STI's album "untying the Knot" destroyed the conception that jam bands could not recreat thier magic in the studio?

Could you perhaps go into details about this or share references? I always love hearing what the Beatles thought about other artists in the 60's, but it's so hard to find info on the subject. I've never heard them mention Frank Zappa, so I'm really curious. I can see how Freak Out would influence them, because it was so different for 1966. Thanks for any info you can share 
On the topic of the thread, I think Donovan's 'Sunshine Superman' lp had a big impact in England. In 1966 it was very ahead of it's time, but unfortunately it wasn't released in America until 1967, after Are You Experienced, Disraeli Gears, and Sgt. Pepper had been released. I know the Stones and Beatles were influenced by Sunshine Superman though.

i know I am in a slim minority around here, but I have to say that Prince Paul's Prince Among Theives changed music for me, at least the production side of it all.
Other than that, Wu-tang probably changed music the most for me, and plenty others worldwide. (not to mention, prince paul is wu-fam).
not to say I don't have pretty much ever CCR album on vinyl among others, but im from a different generation.

Not sure about some of the above, but here are a few I think actually did change the face of music:
- Low (David Bowie) - The Velvet Underground & Nico - Combination of: Autobahn, Radio-Activity, Trans-Europe Express, The Man Machine (Kraftwerks early albums)
Have to agree that Loveless is an awesome album - pity the shoegazers got steamrolled by the grunge movement.

Dude, Murex, the instrumental on that cd's alright, because it is Pink Floyd's usual musicians,(besides when with Syd Barrett) but without Roger Water's vocals and amazing song writting, they are nothing.
I think bands/albums that have changed music, are:
1. Dark Side of the Moon- Floyd
2. Surrealistic Pillow- Jefferson Airplane
3. Animals- Pink floyd
4. Piper at the Gates of Dawn(started pyschdelic music of the 60's, forward)- floyd
5. DEFINTELLY "THE WALL"- floyd
6. Hell, I just love this band and album, so fuck you, Nightfall in Middle Earth- Blind Guardian
7. Painkiller- Judas Priest
8.

I'm not sure if I'd point to a single album of theirs, but the Melvins had a huge influence on music, despite never achieving mainstream success themselves.

Dude, Murex, the instrumental on that cd's alright, because it is Pink Floyd's usual musicians,(besides when with Syd Barrett) but without Roger Water's vocals and amazing song writting, they are nothing.

Every punk band I ever heard cited the Velvet Underground as a huge influence. Iggy and the Stooges? You bet. These are the two bands outside of 50s blues guys who were most influential. Floyd and the Dead really didn't have influence outside of their own small (though great) universes. Dylan? Feh.

this thread really should be called;

music is always the same, its the industry and commercial part that change.

Are you aware of any music that was produced in the 70's? Are you aware of a little thing called krautrock, and a little thing called all of new wave music, or basically all electronica of any kind. What do you think faust or kraftwerk or amon duul were? Take pink floyd, mix it with some zappa, and youve basically got it. How do you think david bowie and brian eno, stayed 'current'? Its absurd to imply that Pink Floyd werent influential, they were easilly one of the most influential bands of the 60's. I really have no idea what you mean.

I never considered Floyd to be electronica nor did I think that Kraftwerk or Tangerine Dream or Vangelis were remotely similar. I clearly love Zappa as well but I just don't see the connection. Eno? Great stuff but I don't know who listened outside of the whole very short lived glam rock scene. He and Fripp were far more kindred spirits than Floyd. Eno was in Roxy Music fer fuck sake, maybe the anti-Floyd of all time. Bowie? Yeah, OK, maybe I'll grant a whiff of Floyd in Heroes and Low, but that's it.
I just see Floyd and the Dead as spawning imitators as opposed to innovators. The punks took off from the Velvets and Iggy and MC5. New wave was essentially palatable punk for the masses, not that there was anything wrong with that.

Listen to early krautrock albums. Listen to amon duul's first few albums, or even tangerine dreams first few albums. Its extrmeely similar to stuff pink floyd had already charted. I dont mean Brian Eno, as in the time period where he was in roxy music, but brian eno in his ambient stage, or his albums a bit before that. Low and Heroes, and most of Eno's stuff, were all extremely krautrock based. Krautrock was extremely influenced by the Pink Floyd style of psychedelic music. If you dont believe this, just listen to early krautrock albums, then even some later ones, like Faust IV, and listen to the early pink floyd albums, or the early pink floyd live performances. If you dont notice the immense similarities I dont know what to tell you. And from krautrock, you also have some of the groundwork for post-punk, which I find is immensely more interesting then punk. Punk was interesting, the ramones were fun for a time, Wire was brilliant for their first three albums, but beyond that, its just sort of cute to me. But the real experimentation, Cabaret Voltaire and the no-wave movement, I think were more linked to krautrock. And krautrock stems directly from pink floyd and zappa.

piper at the gates of dawn.
before syd was kicked out, he had ideas to add saxophones and female vocalists. in a lot of interviews regarding syd, roger waters mentions this and acts befuddled by the idea. seems kind of ironic that he infringed this vision on dark side.

Rolling Stone lost all credibility with their best guitarists ever. Somehow Kurt Cobain was #7 but Buckethead wasnt even on the list and David Gilmour was like #70something.
Please tell me how kurt cobain far exceeds the ability of david gilmour

I think people should give reasons why the albums they've listed have 'changed the face of music'.
Some of the albums I've seen posted are just ridiculous.
