Any Coventry music aficionado knows this is the launchpad for the 2-tone revolution, but according to voters at the Coventry Music Museum, our tastes in the city reach wider than ska.

To celebrate National Album Day, the 2-Tone Village held a vote for the best of Coventry's homegrown LPs.

Visitors voted from 18 top 20 albums, beginning in the 1960s with Frank Ifield, all the way to We'll Live and Die In These Towns from The Enemy, taking the title of the only number one album by a Coventry artist.

The top ranked Coventry albums
