BBC Radio Devon (god save me from this godforesaken little patch of land that sticks into the sea and that I love so much APART FROM THE BLOODY PEOPLE) recently polled thier listeners via the internet (I know, crazy huh, that all these people who are waiting to die have net connections?!) to find out "Devon's Top 50 Albums" which is a bit like asking for "Alaska's Favourite Pig Farms" or "Zimbabwe's Favourite Dry Ski Slopes" only MORE INSANE.
