DAVE-FM's lastest list is the Big 30 Albums of the last 30 years. Apparently Michelle Engle thinks these are the best albums of the past 30 years. Once again she is completely out of touch with music and her listeners.

A discussion on the merits of each album is futile. Instead, let’s mess with her. I urge all of you to vote for the following albums as the best of the last 30 years:
Alanis Morissette "Jagged Little Pill"
Def Leppard “Hysteria”
Huey Lewis & the News “Sports”
Madonna “Like a Virgin”
Rush “Moving Pictures”
Remember, if these albums win, DAVE will have to play them. Imagine Margot saying, “Dave-FM listeners voted Madonna as the best album of the past 30 years.” What a frickin hoot. Besides all the boardies and lurkers we will need some help. I implore all of you to email this link (http://929davefm.listenernetwork.com/DoSurvey.asp?SurveyScheduleID=22162) to all your email contacts and have them vote for those albums too. Forget the political elections, this is an election that we can control, that’s the Chicago way.
