Top of the Pop Culture 80s - Top 20 Albums of the 80s - Numbers 10 to 1

 


Our Top 20 all time 80s favourite albums. Numbers 10 to 1. The criteria is albums we still play today and never tire of, where we never skip any songs or think I've heard that track too many times. Yes, we are aware that Pat Benatar's "In the Heat of the Night" was released in August 1979 in America but it never charted in the U.K. until 1985. 


Listen to some of our favourites:
