Man those Prince and Replacements albums really riding on goodwill. (They're both OK, but not top 10 or 11.)

I love World Party being at 15.

Don't remember or haven't heard some of these, but think my Top Ten would have incl. (def the first two):

Red Hot and Blue
The Chills: Submarine Bells
Neil Young: Ragged Glory
Sinéad O'Connor: I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got (87)
Public Enemy: Fear of a Black Planet

Texas Tornados: Texas Tornados (Reprise)
Eno/Cale: Wrong Way Up (Opal/Warner Bros.)
Bob Dylan: Under the Red Sky

My absent favourites of 1990: Chill Out, Armed Audio Warfare, Listen Without Prejudice, Rebel Music, Mixed Up, Let Them Eat Bingo, Boomania, Jordan, En-Tact, Cure for Sanity, Song (It's Immaterial), City: Works of Fiction, Pills n Thrills, Skellington

(To state the obvious, most of these weren't ever likely to be troubling P&J. Half of them were unlikely to be troubling UK lists either. And some weren't released in the US.)

Albums I actually owned:

1. Neil Young: Ragged Glory (Reprise) 1282 (104)
2. Sinéad O'Connor: I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got (Chrysalis) 1070 (87)
3. Public Enemy: Fear of a Black Planet (Def Jam) 1026 (82)
4. Sonic Youth: Goo (DGC) 659 (63)
5. Living Colour: Time's Up (Epic) 606 (51)
6. Ice Cube: AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted (Priority) 533 (45)
10. Prince: Graffiti Bridge (Paisley Park) 417 (43)
14. Queen Latifah: All Hail the Queen (Tommy Boy) 278 (29) *
17. Lou Reed/John Cale: Songs for Drella (Sire/Warner Bros.)249 (24)
18. A Tribe Called Quest: People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm (Jive)
247 (27)
20. Digital Underground: Sex Packets (Tommy Boy) 229 (27)
23. The Carl Stalling Project (Warner Bros.) 202 (22)
24. Jane's Addiction: Ritual de lo Habitual (Warner Bros.) 198 (19)
33. 3rd Bass: The Cactus Album (Def Jam) 150 (16) *

Albums I did not own, but heard:

7. Paul Simon: The Rhythm of the Saints (Warner Bros.) 486 (42)
9. L.L. Cool J: Mama Said Knock You Out (Def Jam) 457 (40)
13. Deee-Lite: World Clique (Elektra) 327 (36)
26. Iggy Pop: Brick by Brick (Virgin) 188 (19)
27. Faith No More: The Real Thing (Slash/Warner Bros.)186 (14) *
31. The Black Crowes: Shake Your Money Maker (Def American) 160 (14)
35. Pet Shop Boys: Behaviour (EMI) 141 (13)

If I'd been voting back then my top 5 would probably have been (based on actual time spent listening) Ice Cube, Public Enemy, Jane's Addiction, Living Colour, Neil Young.

Absent favorites:

Suicidal Tendencies - Lights, Camera, Revolution
Ministry - The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste
Tad - Salt Lick

I was about 15 in 1990 and remember Ragged Glory as a Big Deal in the boomer press: Freedom as the solid comeback, this the culmination.

I was 14 and in my transitionary period between Def Leppard and Nirvana. Looking at that list, I only remember listening to lots of Public Enemy, Living Colour, LL Cool J, ATCQ, Digital Underground and Faith No More.
