Dire Straits Better Than The Beatles, Nirvana but not the Boss

(Gigwise) Bruce Springsteen's �Born In The USA' has been voted the greatest rock album of all time in a new poll. The 1984 album beat off competition from bands including Nirvana and The Clash to top the survey, which was carried out in conjunction with a new BBC rock documentary.

[for some very strange reason] Dire Straits 1985 album �Brothers In Arms,' came in at number two in the poll, just ahead of Nirvana's seminal 1991 album, �Nevermind,' which was described as a "snapshot of those times."

Other notable bands to make the top ten included The Clash with �London Calling,' and the �White Album' by The Beatles. [see the full story for the full questionable Top 10 where Vanilla Ice and Snow should have been on top]
