I wish I could give this chart a better rating but I'm just not familiar with any of these albums, I am sorry.

Interesting. It's as though you listened to music for about 10 years and then just stopped. There are a handful of really solid 80's era selections here (Orange Juice, Teardrop Explodes,The Go-Go's first album, More Specials to name a few) and a lot of period pieces for those nostalgic for the 80's. Sorry, but I'm not one of them.
