Best Albums of 1979
Ranked by our critic's grades, best first.
London CallingNineteen songs, six or seven genres, one argument, and the album where punk proves it can grow up.Read the review
The WallAn enormous, well built and genuinely oppressive double album that few people play twice in a month.
PrinceThe hits arrive, the personality does not quite. Two great singles and a lot of very smooth filler.
