We seem like a fairly pop-centric bunch so let's make a Hibees Bounce all time top Albums list

Post your top 10 albums here or pm me and I will assign each album the following points

10 - 2
09- 3
08 - 4
07 - 5
06 - 6
05 - 7
04 - 8
03 - 9
02 - 10
01 - 11

If each person votes honestly I think we could have an interesting non-Hibs debate.

I'll collate the points and post an honest and definitive top whatever.

I'll do mine first

10 - Hounds of Love - Kate Bush
09 - Green Day - Kerplunk
08 - Husker Du - Zen Arcade
07 - GoGos - Vacation
06 - Chameleons - Strange Times
05 - Misfits - Walk Among Us
04 - Pulp - Different Class
03 - Pixies - Doolittle
02 - Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks
01 - Neutral Milk Hotel - In the Aeroplane Over the Sea

Honourable mentions that I love but are getting no points (from me)

REM - Document
The Smiths - Strange ways Here We Come
Love - Forever Changes
NWA - Straight Outta Compton
Beach Boys - Smiley Smile
The Cure - Disintegration


I want this thread to be a harmonious thing, but a bit of argument is always fun so tell us is if you think the Beatles are massively overrated or Blur were shite...

10-Graceland, Paul Simon
9-Sheet music, 10cc
8-Desire, Bob Dylan
7-Theatre of the unheard, Darrel Scott
6- Sheik Yerbouti, Frank Zappa
5- Let it be (naked version), The Beatles
4-Aladdin Sane, Bowie
3-The lamb, Genesis
2-Physical Graffiti, Led Zeppelin
1-Dark side of the moon, Pink Floyd

All 10 could change depending on my mood but this'll do for starters.

Beatles superb and massively UNDERATED by many.
Yes Blur were shite.
I see this being a generational thing but good fun, good luck.

I have always switched off at 01.00, before God Save The Queen is played.

Saw the Tull live on the Aqualung tour on 28 February 1971 at the Gaumont State Theatre in Kilburn NW2. Lived 100 yards from Kilburn tube station at the time. We may be old, but at least we saw all the best bands.😃

Saw them doing TAAB at the Usher Hall, I think it was. One of the best and most fun concerts I ever seen.
