The official Stuck in the '80s list of 80 Albums Every '80s Fan Should Own continues with part 2 today. (Click here to read part 1.)

As mentioned yesterday, I followed certain rules for the list:No band has more than a single album on the list. No soundtracks were considered. No live albums were considered. No greatest-hits CDs are included.

Today's list: I own (or owned) 13 of the albums listed today. One I'll never part with? Duran Duran obviously. One I'll never buy: Guns N' Roses. Sorry, Axl.

I'd like to thank the dozens of Stuck in the '80s fans who helped nominate the albums you'll see listed (20 at a time, alphabetically by band name) over these next four days. Any omissions or mistakes are my own.
