Cool. Cool.
That's a long list of albums not allowed But, I guess that makes sense. Maybe call it something else, rather than "Best British Albums"..if some are excluded. Not sure.
My nominations:
Young Marble Giants - Colossal Youth
Belle & Sebastian - Tigermilk _________________ Submit Your List for BEA's 2023 Film Poll!
