Best Album of....1989

[jebus]

Putting this up 2 days early as the 1988 thread seems to be running out of steam. Those of you that haven't voted in that poll can still do so up until Friday morning however. Same rules apply here, 9 chosen albums, plus 1 other option, put the album you are voting for in as a comment if you are choosing this option. Thread stays up until next Wednesday. Poll for 1990 will be up as soon as the 1988 poll closes

I hope this will be part of the poll :)

Seen as The Pogues - If I should fall from grace with God isn't there, I'll have to go for The Stone Roses.

[tetsujin1979]

got to be the Stone Roses, apart from Doolittle, it's the only one on that list I still listen to

[Billsthoughts]

Other

Bob Dylan - Oh Mercy.
Of above Tom Petty, The Stone Roses and the Pixies albums all good.
Was "Peace and Love" 1989 Noby???????

[Lionel Ritchie]

I, in contrarian Morgan Tsvangari form, voted Doolittle.

I'm now making honourable mentions of...

Hup - The Wonderstuff,
Bizarro - The Wedding Present,
Beneath The Remains - Sepultura,
Shibumi - Tuesday Blue
Welcome to - The Beautiful South

Other honourable mentions:

The Cure - Disintegration
B52's - Cosmic Thing

[Pauro 76]

Voted for Stone Roses. A given, really. Can we move onto 1990 please? ;)

Pther is listed too. Nice to see Panthera in there.

I'm afraid to check.

[Billsthoughts]

I'm afraid to check.

:D snigger...

The Cult - Sonic Temple....worth a mention as well..

[Pauro 76]

Reckon Nine Inch Nails 'Pretty Hate Machine' more than deserves a mention.

[jebus]

The b-52s just missed out on the cut, went with Beastie Boys to give the poll more variety

[Wolfie]

The Stone Roses - sometimes the obvious choice is the correct one.

[stann]

Oops, he beat me to the punch, my big protest vote scuppered before it could get going. :o
Seriously though Jebus, it's a thundering disgrace that the greatest hip hop record of all time is not on the list. :mad:

My vote is 'Pther': De La Soul - Three Feet High And Rising.

[endabob1]

I was never much of a pixies fan and almost 20 years later the Stone Roses is still a regular visitor to the endabob decks, so it's a virtual no brainer although Neil Young's Freedom was and still is a belter of a record too.

Greatest hiphop album of all time was included in the 1988 poll, and I'm not talking about the NWA here

[stann]

Good album, but not even Public Enemy's best. :p
(that being Fear Of A Black Planet)
3 Feet High & Rising is the best hip hop LP ever made, or ever will be made, FACT, simple as, end of, jinks, no come backs.
In my 'umble opinion of course. :D

Tom Petty in its place??!! :eek:

Bit of an academic discussion though as the Stone Roses will p*ss this one.

Someone, possibly you, questioned Bon Jovi being included in the last one and it's currently getting the bronze medal so you'd never know.

Well actually I do know, Stone Roses will beat Tom Petty's brains out :)

[Metrostars]

Stone Roses for me although I also do love that Tom Petty one.

Not me squire, I never question Bon Jovi being included in anything. Kind of a mantra with me. Years ago, maybe, but not any more. Ohooo no! It's just not worth it in the long run. I remem

What? Aquemini wasn't released until 1998. :D

[jebus]

This one is shaping up to be the least interesting I reckon. I could easily just call it for the Stone Roses now, I'm not going to mind, but I could :)

[GuisaSaigon]

Voted Stone Roses. I still listen to it, absolute classic. Faith no more a distant second.

[SkStu]

it was so close to call between FNM and Stone Roses... a dead heat but i voted FNM as it was the album i remember loving more out of the two in 1989. Both have aged extremely well in my opinion.

[Lionel Ritchie]

Went for Madonna. Probably the best album by a female solo artist ever.

Will you stop.:eek: ...it's not even the best MADONNA album ever -despite some thin gruel among the competition. :D

[Neish]

Has to be the Stone Roses
