Stramash Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Rather than start the usual debate of which decade produced the best music, thought I would open it up to a poll. So this thread is the 'qualifying round' so to speak. Nominate an album in any or all of the decades from 60's to noughties. I will collate the 4 or 5 albums in each of those decades that seem to come up the most, then do a poll on each of them. Don't post youtube links at this stage. Keep that for winning votes for your preferred choice in the actual polls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
