A Listmania! list by Papa Nikos
 
Real Life
1.  Real Life by Magazine
The list author says:
  "This is the best album ever made.  Explosive, colourful post-punk with fairground tunes and atmospheric glam.  Howard Devoto's avant-garde lyrics are far superior to Morrissey's..."
Used & New from: £2.49

Sulk: Remastered
2.  Sulk: Remastered by Associates

Used & New from: £19.24
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (20 customer reviews)

Open Wide
3.  Open Wide by Minty
The list author says:
  "AAARGH!!! I knew this would be hard to find, but find it!  They were Leigh Bowery's band.  Especially good to get drunk to! Terrifying perv-carnival disco madness and you can swear along to it!"
Used & New from: £9.49
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Bwyd Time
4.  Bwyd Time by Gorky's Zygotic Mynci
The list author says:
  "What is wrong with these record companies deleting everything but Minogue & Williams?! This is a madcap classic.  The Coral ripped them off but Gorky's went further!  Best consumed at Aberystwyth."
Used & New from: £9.99

Fireside Favourites
5.  Fireside Favourites by Fad Gadget
The list author says:
  "This is brill!  There are no rubbish songs on this album! There is a lovely J G Ballard thing going on too plus some very scary stuff - Insecticide is about a malevolent fly with designs on your wife!"
£6.87   Used & New from: £4.66
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Black Celebration
6.  Black Celebration by Depeche Mode
The list author says:
  "Ah! The masters!  You can't avoid buying all their albums, and then pretend you're walking around Berlin in the mid 80s with Blixa Bargeld"
Used & New from: £1.83
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (16 customer reviews)

Ex.El
7.  Ex.El by 808 State
The list author says:
  "I don't know much about dance music but this is fantastic.  There are almost jazz style riffs which shift all the way through a "song" and you never hear the same bleeps twice!!!"
Used & New from: £4.74
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

Tiny Dynamine / Echoes in a Shallow Bay
8.  Tiny Dynamine / Echoes in a Shallow Bay by Cocteau Twins
The list author says:
  "This is the Cocteau Twins' most gorgeous "album" - I can't describe it but best listened to - a bit melancholy, a bit drunk and before sleep! (or in a nice harbour somewhere at night!)"
Used & New from: £7.98
3.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

So Red the Rose
9.  So Red the Rose by Arcadia
The list author says:
  "Yes, they were Duran Duran and don't watch the video, but this is classy and sumptuous & you may want to gel your hair while listening."
£4.49   Used & New from: £2.56
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (32 customer reviews)

Avalon
10.  Avalon by Roxy Music
The list author says:
  "Ahhh and talking of class....Warm and relaxing music.  Listen to this in a dinner jacket after the party somewhere nice!  Of all the Roxy LPs this is the most complete."
£3.99   Used & New from: £1.97
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (16 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Spleen and Ideal
11.  Spleen and Ideal by Dead Can Dance
The list author says:
  "No 11 - just in case you actually want to enter that other world; this is the vast sounding album that'll take you there!  Sounds like it was recorded in Ancient Greece..."
Used & New from: £2.89
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (8 customer reviews)
