I was quite fond of this album at the time of its release and for some years later on. Smile

Blondie won my vote easily in this poll, but deciding who to include and who to leave out of these polls is always The Hardest Part. Smile

It's tempting to drop any albums I've only rated two stars from the poll, but it's the two-star albums that often go on to win the poll. Tongue

Gary Numan - Cars - an era-defining video where giving a robotic performance is seen as being a good thing. Smile

4 stars 1979: Pretenders - Pretenders - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HmwpEmD6-QU

Contrary to popular belief, Brass in Pocket is not about scraping a living as an underpaid and overworked waitress in a backstreet cafe, but it's about the confidence (or brass neck) one needs to perform well on stage - according to Chrissie Hynde. Smile
