Uncut magazine - Top 500 albums of the 80's

[blumoonrisen]

Synchronicity by Police or Momentarily Lapse of reason by Floyd, not even in the top 500..!
And if compilations are included, no Legend by Bob Marley.

I did and it’s bollocks. One Simple Minds album and no Police albums

Sounds good.lol.

Ocean Rain every time for me.

Fair enough, but to me they went away from the dark, psychedelic sound that made them popular and made an album for the masses.
That's their right of course, but they lost early fans as a result.

Brothers in arms 367? Holy moly. Pmsl.

This list was compiled by the Felt fan club of the 80s. As you can see, they didn't just like Felt.

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Substance and stop making sense are the absolute best compilation/reworking songs albums of all time in my opinion.

2 great albums mate.

My hot takes following a quick look.

Closer is the greatest album ever made, so good to see it up there.
Queen is Dead isn’t even the best Smiths album. In fact, it’s possibly their weakest.
Good to see solid recognition of The Fall
Two glaring omissions are OMDs ‘Dazzleships’ and Neil Young’s ‘Ragged Glory’
