Quality chart. Nice to see 'Mellon Collie' so high, and Spiritualized (though I prefer 'Let It Come Down' to 'Ladies and Gents...'). Not sure about Kiss, and 'Sabotage' is possibly my least favourite Sabbath album - completely overblown and pretentious. But a list full of choices that are both brilliant and unpredictable.

Good chart. At least, it is much better than faceless porridge of charts on this site with artists ad nauseam.
