First, Happy Halloween! But just because it's a holiday doesn't mean you aren't going to get my top pick of albums on the last Friday of the month (whether you want it or not). Like usual this pick has the top ten albums of the year and by top ten, I mean the ones, I picked back then. The rules were simple for me. I had to own the album (and most were CD's by 1987) and I had to have played the heck out of it. These all follow that. Not sure if they all would still be top albums for me now. For sure there are tracks I still listen to, but who knows. What were some of your favorites in 1987? The sample cover I used is from Satriani. The Silver Surfer is too cool. But all of them are included.
Top Pick Albums 1987
01 Wire - Ahead
02 Siouxsie & the Banshees - The Passenger
03 Prince - Hot Thing
04 Echo & The Bunnymen - Lips Like Sugar
