Top ten albums of 1987

When I first started this blog two and a half years ago, one of the projects I wanted to do was to re-evaluate my top ten album lists. So in December of 2005 I re-thought my top ten hard rock/metal albums of 1985 and posted it in December. So for the third year in a row, I will re-do my top ten and this time it's 1987 because that was twenty years ago. Back in August I chose twenty albums that I thought had a chance of making my list. Between August and October I gave each one a listen and narrowed it down to ten. This month I am putting the top ten in order. Then starting December 1st I will reveal the album I have at number ten and then I post one each day and countdown until revealing my number one album of 1987 on December 10th. I also give hints each day about the next album in case anyone wants to guess at wants coming up. Then on the 11th I will have the "Golden Turd of 1987" award plus the "Most improved band" award. On the 12th will be the "Five worst album covers of 1987" followed on the 13th by the "Five best album covers of 1987". So all this will be coming up in just a few weeks and I hope that you will enjoy it.
