I'd be, so long as there is enough trashy dance pop. I'm sure we can justify enough sub-genres to have at least two or three lists.

Agreed.

Let's see, for alt rock we'd have to find a replacement for The Replacements.

1. The Replacements - Tim
2. Weezer - Pinkerton
3. Big Star - 3rd
4. The Jam - All Mod Cons
5. Cheap Trick - At Budokan (replaced on the other list by Toto)
6. Todd Rundgren - Something / Anything?
7. Teenage Fanclub - Grand Prix
8. Squeeze - Argybargy
9. Badfinger - Straight Up
10. Sloan - Navy Blues

Forgive the original Clour Haze addition. That was a bad.

Give me a minute to put together a space rock one.

What do you think?
I don't know if there's a rule hereabouts concerning live albums, but Cheap Trick's Heaven Tonight might make more sense.
