Why don't you tell us yours and we'll have a real laugh! weren't you listening to Spandau Ballet and Duran Duran at this time:p:

Well amongst pop albums Thriller and Can't Slow Down would have been contenders I would've thought. Of course some other genres could be contenders such as progressive with Bacamarte.

They did some good singles though, even if they don't contend for classic album status that much. Though I like the 84 album of Spandau.

Duran Duran's reissue of their debut is a strong contender for 1983, sure

i can't think of any others

I wish a Jazz album like John Coltrane's A love Supreme would make the number 1 hit list in today's world.

Not the biggest fan myself, but this album consistently comes up as an essential album to buy from the 80's.

1983 was a fantastic year in general with many genres spewing out great albums.

PUNK- Suicidal Tendencies-Self titled
Black Flag- The first four years
Subhumans [UK]- The day the country died

POP/ROCK- Peter Gabriel- Plays live
Tears for fears- The Hurting
REM-Murmur
Roxy Music- The high road

Alternative- Ministry- With sympathy
Bauhaus- Burning from the inside
Metal?- Slayer- Show no mercy
Metallica- Kill em all
Iron Maiden- Piece of mind
Dio- Holy diver

Stevie Ray Vaughan- Texas Flood

Black Uhuru- Guess whos coming to dinner.

Checked out a few lists and these were memorable to me. Overall a pretty damn good year.

Well I've heard quite a few of those for sure. But I prefer other albums by several of them. I prefer Tears for Fears 85 album, Iron Maiden's Seventh Son of a Seventh Son and Roxy Music's Avalon.

Soft Cell's The Art of Falling Apart was relesed in 1983, methinks
