Albums which I have and are not all original presses, not necessarily the best, but what spring to mind and which I play regularly. 

 

60's Sgt Peppers.....

70's London Calling-The Clash

80's Alchemy Live-Dire Straits. Mainly because I was at the concert. Only has 10 tracks but hey ho, the CD has 11. 

90's What's the Story Morning Glory-Oasis

Ahh, only 11 tracks per album and make your own Album, thought you meant 11 or more for each year. Your heading is misleading due to the plural use for Album. Fuck it, I'm not playing.

Fucker.

 

You've misunderstood things like myself...I think.

 

TM wants us to make our own albums including our 11 preferred tracks from the 60's for album 1, from the 70's for album 2 and so on.
