This is confusing. Shouldnt all the albums begin with +1?

Also, I think all albums start with nothing and then a +1 is added when someone seconds that album? I think? (clarification someone?)

Never understood having a reissue as your favourite album of a said year. In this case, the music is from decades earlier and is in no way indicative of 1961. By all means, enjoy the album. Love it. Put it on your overall chart if you want. But it's just sort of strange to me to see these on a year or decade chart, or somewhere like this. Like how can the best album of 1961 be music made in 1936?

This is an excellent point, and I hadn't thought of it that way before. I'm editing my Best-of-Year charts to remove compilations and reissues. The only two from my list that this affects are

1994 Beatles - Live at the BBC
now
1994 Chumbawamba - Anarchy

2011 Beach Boys - The Smile Sessions [would have been amazing if released in 1966]
now
2011 Avril Lavigne - Goodbye Lullaby

Listmeister, all of your threads seem to require a lot of work.

Here's an example. This doesn't count.

Pretend I'm MyLister. I quote the list as it is right now, from Listmeister, the last person to post it. I would add lines for my favorites for each year from the 80's, like so:

Listmeister wrote:

1980: REO Speedwagon - Hi Infidelity
1980: John Lennon & Yoko Ono - Double Fantasy
1981: 2 Electric Light Orchestra - Time
1982: Michael Jackson - Thriller
1982: Duran Duran - Rio
1983: 2 Billy Joel - An Innocent Man
1984: Ray Lynch - Deep Breakfast
1984: Bruce Springsteen - Born in the U.S.A.
1985: 2 a-ha - Hunting High and Low
1986: The Bangles - Different Light
1986: Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet
1987: Guns'n'Roses - Appetite for Destruction
1987: Heart - Bad Animals
1988: 2 Pet Shop Boys - Introspective
1989: The Stone Roses
1989: B-52's - Cosmic Thing

My entrys are in bold. I added an entry for those years where my pick wasn't up there yet, (Double Fantasy, Rio, etc.) and added a '2' where it was (Time, An Innocent Man, etc.). Next person to vote for Time would put up a 3.[/b]
