80s top 10:
1. Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska
2. Joy Division - Closer
3. The Cure - Disintegration
4. The Smiths - Hatful of Hollow

7. Scott Walker - Climate of Hunter
8. Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds - The Firstborn is Dead...

My 90’s top 10 (and as always one album per artist):
1. Scott Walker - Tilt

4. Songs: Ohia - The Ghost
5. The Notorious B.I.G. - Life After Death
6. Willie Nelson -...

Bruce Springsteen - Nebraska
Frank Sinatra - Only the Lonely

Joy Division - Closer
Scott Walker - Tilt
Marvin Gaye - What’s Going On
The Cure - Disintegration...
