Billboard - The 50 Greatest Latin Albums of the Past 50 Years

In celebration of Billboard's Greatest of All Time special package, our team of Latin experts has compiled a list of 50 seminal Spanish-language albums from the past 50 years. Our list doesn't necessarily include the top-selling albums nor the ones that garnered most airplay, although there's plenty of both. Instead, we looked for albums that had a lasting impact on contemporary Latin music at many levels and which continue to impact and transform the music we hear today. From Soda Stereo's Canción Animal to Aventura's take on bachata -- which unleashed an entire musical movement that continues to dominate today's Latin charts -- here are 50 essential Latin albums spanning 50 years of music.
