Obviously this chart is a work in progress. My collection doesn't seem to have much variety from the sixties, a situation I will need to remedy. Feel free to offer suggestions to help me flesh this out.

I feel like there really needs to be some Jimi Hendrix in here. I would also put The Velvet Underground and Nico and White Light/White Heat in here. For variety maybe some Coltrane and Miles Davis as well.
