Following a natural sequence, here's the opportunity to post your list of your favourite albums from the Eighties. There's no prescriptive parameters limiting you to 5, 10, 20 etc so feel free to go hog wild.
Personally, I've gone for a thirty this time (I went for a list of twenty five on Facebook for the nineties but the thirty for the eighties seemed a natural number after whittling down my faves and should give a pretty reflective feel to what I loved musically about the eighties.)

2. The Replacements - Please To Meet Me (1987)
3. Stiff Little Fingers - Go For It (1981)
