Thanks to you, I'm discovering Marillion. Look for them on my future Best of the 80's charts.

Full of bands that takes themselves way too seriously. I'd like to see diversity of genre and era as well. Sorry - I'm not a fan.

This chart is awesome. I'm overjoyed that the only nineties album here is Little Earthquakes.
