Albums of the Year 1966

 The year between 1965 and 1967 to state the blindingly obvious. A year significant enough music wise for Jon Savage to write a blindingly good book about it. Here's the Top Ten, as voted by punters of the Best Ever Albums site:

1. The Beatles - Revolver
2. The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
3. Bob Dylan - Blonde on Blonde
4. The Rolling Stones - Aftermath
5. Simon & Garfunkel - Sounds of Silence
6. The Mothers of Invention - Freak Out
7. Simon & Garfunkel - Parsley, Sage, Rosemary & Thyme
8. The 13th Floor Elevators - The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators
9. The Kinks - Face to Face 
10. John Coltrane - Ascension
