100 Most Important Musical Works (from NPR)

The 100 most important American musical works of the 20th century
The italicized words are from NPR. Throughout the year 2000, NPR presented the stories behind 100 of the most important American musical works of the 20th century. These special features cover music from a wide variety of genres -- classical, jazz, rock'n'roll, country, R&B, musical theatre and film scores. NPR 100 stories aired on All Things Considered, Morning Edition, and NPR's weekend news magazine programs. Here is the list from NPR.

I think that this is a cool list. It lists not only different genres, but also it lists different formats. It has musicals, movie soundtracks, 45s and their B-sides, and songs and albums too. Enjoy the tunes!
