# The Year You Turned 18

A curated list by [Chromium](https://waxlog.com/user/chromium) on Waxlog, submitted to the **The Year You Turned 18** challenge.

> Maybe not the very best albums of the year, but the best I actually bought... It was also the last year I bought vinyl as I switched over to CDs the next year.... which lasted over 25 years.
> And then began the great buyback of all the vinyl albums I had sold...like an idiot.
