The History Of Jop Part 12 aka Just lovely and delicious

Another day, another decade - it's the 1990 Pazz and Jopp poll.

No particular gerrymandering this time so you get the full NINE picks. I left off some EPs (MBV's Glider, Ride's Smile) which I knew might have brought smiles to ageing Brit faces, but I figured the "I've heard of them" defense wouldn't really justify them being included when others weren't.

Boo Radleys ace early records (Ichabod & I -> Everything Alright Forever) ought to count.

Sonically, yes. But weren't they from Liverpool or something? No OX or SL postcode, no ticky. :)
