After your top ten I started planning in my head how I was going to beg you not to retaliate after I drop a 50 on your chart...then I got to the rest of it, and wow! What an awesome chart! Hidden gems from the likes of Comus, Low and Big Star, all the great jazz, and classics from Cohen, Television and King Crimson show impressive variety.

At first I thought this chart would be too cool for school if it weren't for a few aberrations like Meatloaf and Lloyd Webber. I then realised they actually make it cooler because it shows you're not just trying to look cool. Unless of course you're second guessing us and it's all a double bluff ;)

Having two Weezer albums at 1 and 2 made you loose some stars but the rest of your chart is great. Thanks for the high rating. :)

My old chart!? I must confess I am unable to remember the difference between my now chart and my old chart. Which albums did the old one contain? There is going to be a change today or tomorrow anyway as I am almost finishing putting the album and song ratings back in order. Toodles!
