If you're gonna go with classics, you might as well go with a bunch of the absolute best.

For what it lacks in creativity, it makes up in solid, respectable selections.

May be predictable, but you have great albums on this chart. Nearly half of these albums are on my chart. If you are going to increase the size of this chart, I may recommend If You're Feeling Sinister by Belle & Sebastian, Back to Black by Amy Winehouse and The Seldom Seen Kid by Elbow.
