Before I start echoing the consensus, I'm going to start the list with some great to good albums that I think are ranked way too low in the 80s.

This chart proves that the 80's did indeed rock.
Who says the 80's were crappy?? Haha, if they were, it inspired a lot of talented artists to step up an improve their decade, and this list is exemplary of the effort. I was beginning to think I was the only one out there who liked Mistrial!
Gleaned excellent music from what is perceived as a crappy decade. Tom Petty, Meat Puppets, REM, Husker Du, Dionsaur Jr., and Talking Heads? It's all good! Great 80s chart.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
We work very hard to ensure our site is as fast (and FREE!) as possible, and we respect your privacy.
