60s was the best decade in Rock nodoubt about that. The music of that era is refreshing even know and each album seemes like a ground breaking one. Your chart I think is a very good representation of that decade.

Thanks, really appreciate your explanation. I can totally see where you're coming from with "Magical Mystery Tour", its status as EP/compilation has always bugged me, but I've added it to my chart anyway, I think I've somehow convinced myself that it was originally intended as a proper studio album, though it's not really the truth. Haha, laziness is also totally understandable and always a great excuse... as long as it's not anything school/work-oriented! ;) Great to see "Rubber Soul" now, your chart is more or less complete! My current favourite Stones album is the aforementioned "Their Satanic Majesties Request", it's the only Stones album that grabbed me instantly and it's still fascinating to listen through even after many listens, highly psychedelic and out there, though not half as popular as other Stones albums!

Thanks for your feedback Mother Nature's Son!
No it's never boring to ask about The Beatles if you ask me! :D
Well I'll add Magical Mystery tour somewhere between #60-80. I love that album but I always think of that as a fantastic EP + containing singles released previously, so not 'a real' full album. When I listen to it, all the songs flow together perfectly, so I really like it. I have just expanded the chart, I'll add another albums soon, it just takes time. I'm so lazy sometimes.
I added Rubber Soul and my favourite Stones album, 'Let It Bleed', I'll see if I will add an another album by them.

I know it's boring to ask about The Beatles, but seriously, where is "Magical Mystery Tour", that should be right down your alley? Also, "A Hard Day's Night" is here, but no "Rubber Soul"?
And regarding the total absence of Rolling Stones, you should definitely check out "Their Satanic Majesties Request" if you haven't. Unlike no other Stones album and much similar to "Sgt. Pepper", just less perfectionistic.
Otherwise good chart with loads of inspired choices. Hopefully you'll expand a little?
