Chose to limit myself to the modern rock and pop era - hence no Sinatra, Miles Davis, Louis Armstrong , Hank Williams etc . Avoided compilations apart from Elvis and Buzzcocks which are slight cheats but function as albums . Would have included comps by Chuck Berry , Buddy Holly , Marvin Gaye , Otis , Them , Shirelles, Everlys , Aretha , Spector , Marvelettes, Supremes, Impressions, Creedence, Jam and many others whose best work appeared on singles rather than LP's.
Immediately wanted to change the list .Would like to add Robyn's Body Talk and Honey, Paris 1919 by John Cale and the first Velvet Underground album. Stranded by Roxy Music. Plus albums by Pretenders, Yo La Tengo, Cure, Teenage Fanclub, Super Furry Animals, Supergrass , Lana del Rey. My Generation by The Who. Village Green by Kinks, Nick Drake, Nick Lowe, Metal Box by PIL, Groovin by The Rascals, Electric Ladyland, Moondance, Paul Simon's self-titled from 72, Macca's Ram and BOTR. Imagine. Call Me and Livin For You by Al Green. Bowie's Low. Funky Kingston by Toots. And many,many more.
