Top 60 Music Albums of the 1980s by mianfei

A child of the 1980s, but one who as a young adult came was almost completely turned away from the music I had listened to during my childhood.

As with my 1990s and 2000s charts, I will not limit albums by artists — as I did for my overall chart — but I will exclude compilations.

This chart will require quite a bit more organisation in the future.
