1984: The absolute top albums from the last 50 years or just soundtracks of my life
1984 is an ambiguous year. In the literary context, it stands as a cipher for total surveillance. Musically, we are really in the middle of the 80s and it is a special year for me in particular, because it is the year my fiancée was born.
In no particular order.
The Replacements ‘Let It Be’
Sade ‘Diamond Life’
Don Henley ‘Building The Perfect Beast’
Prince And The Revolution ‘Purple Rain’
Paolo Conte ‘Paolo Conte’
The Blue Nile ‘A Walk Across The Rooftop’
Prefab Sprout ‘Swoon’
Hüsker Dü ‘Zen Arcade’
Lloyd Cole And The Commotions ‘Rattlesnakes’
I’m going to post the top 9 albums of every year from the last 50 years. One post every week.
