These are the best albums of the 80's I've heard, listed as in my best ever albums top 100.
I've not listened to many albums of this decade, so this isn't a very reliable list. The ones I've listened to are all included here, except for the worst (eg. Bruce Springsteen)

I mentioned it on the main chart, I'll mention it again here.
Cardiacs.
A Little Man And A House And The Whole World Window is the album that got me into the band, sounds excitingly fresh for 1988. Please give it a try!
