semi-Grunching:
I'd be more interested to hear what she thinks the best album of the last 3 years is.
fwiw, I just don't consume music through whole albums now - I've probably listened to <10 albums all the way through in the last 10 years and ~-0 more than, say, 3 times. So while, eg, I thought Artic Monkey's AM seemed like a pretty good record I really wouldn't be able to start to rate it against the first Stone Roses album, say.
But assuming we're going back to before LO daughter was born, and while agreeing with 72o that there many possibles, I'm pretty certain that the best album of the 90s was Underworld's dubnobasswithmyheadman.
