There was talk of such a thing after the 20th century poll last year but everyone was a bit polled out at the time so we decided to put it off for a while.

The problem with the '50s in terms of albums is that so many of the best rock & roll/doo-wop/R&B albums would be compilations that were released years after the fact. (Jazz'd be different, of course.) It's not a problem in terms of the music, but for a meaningful poll, maybe.

we should definitively do a 50's singles poll

I think Johnny's planning it for later this year. There are hip hop and blur polls (possibly others?) ongoing atm so no need to rush.
