Re: 80-61...

Fiona Apple put all of her 90s record inside of the top 100 and after seeing Is This Desire, Dig Me Out and Dilate, you know this is not going to be your average 90s list.

Blur...

Viguen, Beck has four albums on the list, the most- so Blur can't have more than three.

I like the inclusion of Annie Lennox's Diva, which is kinda underrated IMO.

Re: 20-1...

How heinously excessive. Bjork at #1 and #2? I like Bjork, but NO artist has ever produced the top 2 albums of a decade. That's ridiculous.

Jackson

Agreed. I guess it's better than that one German list that has Jimi Hendrix's 3 studio albums as the top three all-time.

Re: 20-1...

Bjork? 1 AND 2? Come. she really shouldn't have either of those spots, let alone both.
But, In Utero was #12, so

Hush...

Björk is every bit as good as Radiohead, but she doesn't get the love they get because she's a girl.

Re: Slant: Best Albums of the 90s

94. Prince and the New Power Generation, Love Symbol Album

I hadn't seen this before. Hooray for Prince! Symbol is indeed a great album, and a good pick for a Prince 90s album. I'd go with The Gold Experience as his best of the 90s, but Symbol isn't far behind and it was a lot more popular, so it makes sense.

Actually, there's an artist that has produced the top 2 albums of all time.

I personally would've loved this list if it started at #6. Seems like a great top 10 from there on.

Seems like the same top 6 you'd always expect,except slot in Loveless and something else for the 2 Bjork albums

For me, take out Automatic for the People and I'm pretty happy with the top 10.
