It appears no question is pending, so if I could jump in real quick and try a difficult one that I found really, really fascinating, but I'll make it easy with some hints. I hope I'm not out of order.

What band has the highest percentage of their studio records in the Rolling Stone's Top 500 records of all time?

Hints: From Manchester England, Active 1982-1987, New Wave/Alternative, but definately a guitar band, The are Vegetarians (hence the title of their third record). Could be considered very depressing music....

They are The S________'s. 80% of their records are on the list, but the one that placed highest was around 300-350.

I thought it would have to be The Beatles (is there a really crappy Beatles record?). One CD groups didn't count (Sex Pistol, Derek and th Dominoes)
