In 1988 I started a new part to my top picks of the year. I still did the top songs (see yesterday's post) and I still did the top albums, but I added the top compilations of the year. So the top compilations I was able to get in 1988 with the top albums I got that year. Somehow or another an extra track was thrown in for the top albums, so it wasn't the top ten albums but rather the top 11 albums. So you get one extra track. Every year after this one, I did the same thing until I stopped doing these each year. I included all the album covers and I know that M+M were really 1987, but I couldn't get it until 1988, so it stays. Click on ONE of the covers, you'll get both if you choose well.

Techno Acid Beat was good, but the cd pressing I got was horrible, they were trying some new indexing and no tracks showed up so it ended up being an hour long track (you could use the index feature to go forward and back but most players didn't have it)
