Koja muzika je bila najpopularnija u vreme kad ste se rodili? Da li je to bio pop, rok, džez ili numera iz nekog filma?
Ako vas je ikad zanimalo koji album je bio najpopularniji u vreme kada ste rođeni, magazin Bilbord ima odgovor. Iako ovogodišnji pobednik još nije proglašen, možete da pogledate listu najprodavanijih albuma u SAD u poslednjih 60 godina.
Na osnovu liste može se zaključiti da su u periodu između 1956. i 1961. godine bili popularni brodvejski mjuzikli, i da su zatim svoje mesto ustupili muzici iz filmova. Nisu izostali ni albumi prvenci nekih od najvećih svetskih zvezda, a lista sadrži i danas malo poznata imena.
