Abbey Road

Many will recognize Abbey Road even if they haven't listen to the album at all.
"Abbey Road? You mean the picture where four men with awesome beards (okay, three with beards and one with no shoe on) are walking in sync to their destination?"
This album cover has to be the one of the most historical album cover of all album covers known to man.
And since then we are given endless amounts of  parodied and recreated versions of the album cover such as:
And
But enough about the album cover. Let's talk music.
I wasn't joking when I said "let's talk music".
This album is SOOO GOOD. All jokes aside,you have to take a moment (specifically 47 minutes and 30 seconds)  to listen to the whole thing. It would be considered UNCONSTITUTIONAL if you dare skip any song of this album. You have to sit there and listen to it all. But for the sake of time, I'll give you an example of what music needs to be in the present.
Listen to Paul McCartney's Vocals shredding up to perform this song. It's crazy good. The raspy sound is either giving you three signs: 1) you naturally have a raspy voice 2) You are doing weird with your vocal cords and 3) You smoke a lot. For Paul's case, it has to be 2.  I recommend listening to the whole album if you get the chance.
