This will take some time... I will return to this thread at a later date
certainly agree with 1991-1997 and a couple earlier ones... Sleepy Jackson though, surely 2003 cant be that slim pickings |
2003 possibly The Mars Volta - De-Loused In The Comatorium, The Sleepy Jackson couldn't even keep their band together for more than a couple months never mind write best album of the year
|
The Sleepy Jackson album was great , I seem to remember a few magazines voting it best album of 2003 too
|
Yeah I seem to remember music magazines tossing off to The Darkness in 2003 as well
Tough competition |

When I tried to go further back, all I could think of was: 1962 Elvis Presley Blue Hawaii 1961 Elvis Presley - G.I. Blues 1960 The Everly Brothers - It's Everly Time And I don't even like Elvis. Don't seem to have any albums from the 50s at all, only compilations. One last thing, wasnt Doolittle 1989? I can't find the album to check but checked it on the net and it said it was too. |
