The Perfect Collection 2 of 3
by NickVolos

This chart is based on the book "The Perfect Collection" by Tom Hibbert. The book was published in 1982, so the albums included in the book are up to that date. It contains a list of 200 albums but because the author in many cases chooses two albums for an artist, it comes up to a total of 226 albums.

I have used this book before the days of internet as a guide. As time allows, I will make an attempt to copy the author's comments under each selection.

The albums in the book are listed in nine chronological sections as follows:

1: PRE-SIXTIES/PRE-POP
Selections 1 through 18 (chart 1 of 3)

2: THE SIXTIES: PRE-BEAT, MOTOWN AND SOUL
Selections 19 through 40

3: MID-SIXTIES/UK
Selections 41 through 59

4: MID-SIXTIES/US
Selections 60 through 84

5: LATE-SIXTIES/UK
Selections 85 through 103 (chart 2 of 3)

6: LATE-SIXTIES/US
Selections 104 through 132

7: THE SEVENTIES/UK
Selections 133 through 156

8: THE SEVENTIES/US
Selections 157 through 196

9: PUNK AND THE EIGHTIES
Selections 197 through 226 (chart 3 of 3)

One of my favourite books on rock/pop music - his sense of humour is brilliant.

Pretty much a mouthwatering collection, interesting to see how some albums have faded into obscurity - the now villified Gary Glitter AND his forgotten sidekicks The Glitter Band, seriously!? - and artists overlooked by Hibbert now have albums ranked high in the Top 100.

Oh my God, am I dreaming? Right Time by Mighty Diamonds! It's here! Have you tried it? It's hard to say how much I love it. It's a short and straightforward poppy reggae record, very calming and catchy. Beautiful stuff. Don't hesitate to give it a try ;-)

Edit : ah, nevermind, I didn't see your rating, sorry xD Well, still, the fact that it's on this list makes me want to check out the rest xD
