Building That Perfect Album Collection..
OK....this will take a bit of thinking about but the idea is to build your own personal ultimate record collection....you are allowed 5 albums from each decade from the 60s onwards..so thats 30 albums in total. Album must have been produced for the first time within that decade to count..you can of course give a commentary on each decade and why the albums mean so much to you as this is a real personal selection....
I will give it some thought tomorrow

Ian I've been struggling all night with this. I don't know owt about 60s music so I've left it blank. 70s (my fave decade) was surprisingly easy for me, as was the 80s. 90s was a bit harder & 00s was really difficult. I know they won't be everyone's cup of tea, but they are some of my favourites:
70s
1 Ramones - Rocket To Russia
2 Boys - Alternative Chartbusters
3 Lurkers - Fulham Fallout
4 Vibrators - Pure Mania
5 SLF - Inflammable Material
80s
1 Ramones - Animal Boy
2 Wasted Youth - Wild & Wandering
3 Cure - 17 Seconds
4 Hanoi Rocks - Bangkok Shocks, Saigon Shakes, Hanoi Rocks
5 Vapors - New Clear Days
90s
1 Three Colours Red - Pure (my favourite album of all time)
2 Ramones - Anthology
3 Goo Goo Dolls - Dizzy Up The Girl
4 Green Day - Dookie
5 Alanis Morrisete - Jagged Little Pill
00s
1 Alkaline Trio - From Here To Infirmary
2 Lostprophets - Start Something
3 Nerina Pallot - Fires
4 Kooks - Inside In/Inside Out
5 Plain White T's - Every Second Counts

Its when you do something like this you suddenly think maybe it was the 70's "Golden Age" of music as you are spot on, but they were my favs, not just for the music thoughGroomyd wrote:
1970's is tough. What about Cat Stevens? You can't leave out What's Going On? can you? Its perfect!!!
Other one loved was Quark Strangeness and Charm, Hawkwind. Just so many

Fresh Fruit was a great album but I thought it was 1979, if you're right it would definitely have been in my 80s choice - should have checked really, but no matter, it's a superb albumslarty wrote:70s
