Top 46 Music Albums of 1980
by lancashirearab

In 1980 I was still in secondary school. I was the prick who thought anything I didn't listen to was just uncool. I was an avid reader of the NME and treated it almost as a bible. I bought so much crap because of their propaganda. Not all of their advice was bad, though. This chart contains many bands I discovered in the pages of NME.
