Top 54 Music Albums of the 1980s

This being the era I grew up in I owned a lot of these recordings at the time. revisiting some of them is like looking at old photos, poems love letters some embarrassing but all full of nostalgia. Most of my guilty pleasures are from this era whilst I was forming my musical palate, some of which are now unpalatable. Still there's some gems amongst it and was probably the last era of genuine invention and originality.

Goodbye 70's Hello 80's. After Vince Clarke left Depeche Mode, the smart money would have backed these to be bigger. [First added to this chart: 10/30/2014]
