The list has
gone to sleep in the last few months…..
Not much to
talk about!!!
But there was a
survey done down here by the national broadcaster the ABC, on the fan’s top 100
albums. It’s a joke! No Police or Sting ( I can live with no Sting), but c’mon
the Police broke in
Here’s the link….

There are some weird ones in here.
Cheers from
down here

Pretty sad looking at this list. I am
such a child of the 80's given that I really like(d) a solid third of this
list!
Michelle in tx (or all the other Michelle's gone now? There used to be several
of us--- I could save some keystrokes...)

More Music seems to like The Police. I know this was some time ago now,
but back in September of 2004 they did a “20 Best of New Wave” and The Police
were #1. They even went into a decent explanation of why, though many
would not at first consider The Police to have been a new wave band, they deserved
to win in this category: First, The Police were there at the beginning of
new wave music with a fresh sound and style that brought us into the age of
video. Secondly, unlike many bands that just penetrated the North
American and European markets, The Police became an international
phenomenon. Finally, they referred to The Police’s wide ranging musical
influences as well as the virtuosity of each of the band members as
musicians. Here is the list from 20 to number 1:
A Flock
of Seagulls
Adam Ant
Tears
for Fears
Joe
Jackson
English
Beat
Human
League
Simple
Minds
Devo
The Cars
Talking
Heads
Depeche
Mode
The B 52s
The
Pretenders
New Order
Elvis
Costello
The Go
Gos
Culture
Club
Duran
Duran
Blondie
The
Police
