Welcome to the Pleasure Dome: 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition
2.  Welcome to the Pleasure Dome: 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition by Frankie Goes To Hollywood

Go West

4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (11 customer reviews)

Paradise Theater
4.  Paradise Theater by Styx

4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (6 customer reviews)

Cloud Nine
5.  Cloud Nine by George Harrison

4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (18 customer reviews)

3.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)

Actually

4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (24 customer reviews)

Purple Rain
8.  Purple Rain by Prince
The list author says:

£5.11   Used & New from: £1.50
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (31 customer reviews)

Riptide
9.  Riptide by Robert Palmer
The list author says:
  "Chic-inspired funk meets rock. "Addicted To Love" is overdone, but there's plenty of other gems on this one. Robert in fine voice, whether crooning or rocking. KT - "Trick Bag""
£8.75   Used & New from: £2.73
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Skylarking: Remastered
10.  Skylarking: Remastered by XTC
The list author says:
  "I read a description of this once as "The Beatles on bales of hay" and its sort-of correct. A brilliant album from beginning to end, concept or not. KT - "1000 Umbrellas""
£6.27   Used & New from: £3.69
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (16 customer reviews)
