Can't go wrong with the Velvet Underground. Great chart even if I think that your criticism for the Arctic Monkeys is a bit unfair.......

Thanks man, I try to keep it that way, when I don't rant about the perceived injustice in the rankings of my favorites, I should probably add something about how it's sad how ignored the Blues is.
