Go to link for suggestions from people in the music industry. Rob Da Bank chose 'OK Computer' by Radiohead. Brits list at the bottom. No Radiohead! No Portishead! No Stone Roses! No Smiths! No Polly! But I'm biased. Oh, and The Brits are always crap, so why worry. I'm not a fan of awards, anyway :

The 30th Brit Awards
The great and the good of the British music industry gather at the Earls Court Arena, west London, on Tuesday for the 30th annual Brit Awards. One new award to feature in this year's show, hosted by the comedian Peter Kay, is proving too close to call. It's for the best British album of the past three decades, and the 10-strong shortlist has been scorned in some quarters.
The nominated albums are:
Coldplay, A Rush of Blood to the Head
Dido, No Angel
Dire Straits, Brothers in Arms
Duffy, Rockferry
Keane, Hopes & Fears
Oasis, (What's the Story) Morning Glory?
Phil Collins, No Jacket Required
Sade, Diamond Life
The Verve, Urban Hymns
Travis, The Man Who
