I tried to keep this list fair by remembering stuff I really loved at the beginning of the decade; however to be included in the list I had to still like it. It is still skewed toward the later part of the decade when I was listening to real music versus what I was listening to as a youngin'. They are in a somewhat significant order (but not entirely). Without further adieu, I give you...
