Albums of the Year - 1989

Here's the Best Ever Albums Top Ten list for the year The Berlin Wall came down:

1. Pixies - Doolittle

2. The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses

3. The Cure - Disintegration

4. Beastie Boys - Paul's Boutique

5. Galaxie 500 - On Fire

6. Nirvana - Bleach

7. Nine Inch Nails - Pretty Hate Machine

8. De La Soul - 3 Feet High & Rising

9. Tom Petty - Full Moon Fever

10. Lou Reed - New York

Scraped a bit to get ten records from this year that I personally own although it was a very good one for music. The Stone Roses woud have been in there and very high, because it's still a fantastic album regardless of how many times you've heard it. But for some reason I lost my vinyl copy and have never replaced it. It's everywhere. You don't really need to. But 3 Feet High & Rising would always have topped this particular list because it was a game changer in a way that precious few albums are. Same goes for The Stone Roses of course, but I get tired of the bleating herd.

1.  De La Soul - 3 Feet High & Rising


2.. Pixies - Doolittle


3. Spacemen 3 - Playing With Fire


4. Galaxie 500 - On Fire


5. Lou Reed - New York


6. New Order - Technique


7. Soul II Soul - Club Classics Vol I


8. Hugo Largo -Mettle


9. The Triffids - The Triffids Present The Black Swan


10. The Neville Brothers - Yellow Moon
