My 1991 list. I found 1991 to ve a much better year for alums than 1990. Had a hard time getting it down to a top ten. In no particular order:
The American in Me - Steve Forbert
Mad Mad World - Tom Cochrane
Back From Rio - Roger McGuinn
Laughter and Lust - Joe Jackson
Fear - Toad the Wet Sprocket
Marc Cohn - Marc Cohn
Pocket Full of Kryptonite - Spin Doctors
Rumor and Sigh - Richard Thomspon
On Every Street - Dire Straits
Into the Great Wide Open - Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
Some that were on the bubble:
Nevermind - Nirvana
Blood Sugar Sex Magik - Red Hot Chili Peppers
Out of Time - REM
The Sky is Crying - Stevie Ray Vaughn & Double Trouble
Hymn to the Silence - Van Morrison
Damn Right I Got the Blues - Buddy Guy
Luck of the Draw = Bonnie Raitt
Mr Lucky - John Lee Hooker
Whenever We Wanted - John Mellencamp
Mr. Bad Example - Warren Zevon
Struck By Lightning - Graham parker
That's a real good list wylie! Glad to see "Fear" in there. That's a great Toad album.
Also, the Steve Forbert. Great LP.
I'd have switched the Nirvana release into the Top 10 just because of it's impact and groundbreaking appeal. That LP made grunge acceptable. Without it, I doubt you'd have had a huge Pearl Jam happen. Don't know what I'd take out to make room for it, though......... maybe the Marc Cohn.
