Top 24 Music Albums of the 1980s
by

Studio albums, EPs, musicals, and soundtracks with at least some original compositions. If no songs are highlighted for an album, it's because I didn't rate any of them 80 or higher.
I've still got a long way to go before I say that I'm happy with my '80s chart. I remember enjoying the music of my early childhood... I just don't know what it was that I was listening to.

It's good, just not great. Some classic hits (can we start calling the '80s "classics" yet?) that are fun to skank to. Plus, I never realized that this was where Paper Planes got its intro from. Straight to Hell; Should I Stay or Should I Go?
