GNMD Poll: Top Ten Albums of 1985

[no country for old wainds]

surely 1967-1969 is fine, those were huge years and i was looking forward to doing those.

thx to grumbles for doing this and even breaking out a metal paddy quote.

 

[Talos of Atmora]

Damn, missed this one. Ah, well. I'd like 1976 or something like that.

 

[Omni]

I'm pleased with the results of this list. Thanks, @Serjeant Grumbles!

Never released there were so many fellow Kate Bush fans here. A great thing, of course.

I only know about 12 albums each from '67 and '68 but doing those years would be a good excuse to discover more, so I'm game.

I might actually participate in a 60s poll.
