Good chart: Pavement, Blur, P J Harvey as top artists.. like it.
I feel reading your Chart is a bit redundant, meaning there are only a few artists and no real surprises,

Outstanding nineties chart! I really love OK Computer (I know everyone does, but it's for good reason), Keep It Like a Secret, In the Aeroplane Over the Sea, and Nevermind, among many of your other selections. I also really like American Water as a top ten pick--I've spent a lot of time driving across the Nevada desert listening to that one.
