«Ao compilar os nossos 250 melhores álbuns do último quarto de século, quisemos mostrar o máximo possível desta história», avança a revista.
«Quando tivemos de escolher entre incluir vários álbuns de um mesmo artista ou abrir espaço para um disco que trouxesse algo importante ou interessante para a seleção, optámos quase sempre pela segunda hipótese», refere a publicação.
