My favorite part of this is The Beatles aren't in the Top Ten.

There are some great albums in your chart but it obviously isn't your decade (born in 1971) so I forgive the lack of variety. Judging by what you DO like I think you'll find some great albums in my 60s chart(s) to explore.

A great reflection of what the 60's was all about. Bob Dylan & The Beatles ruled in the 60's and it is impossible to ignore their influences. Also good to see Nina, Aretha & Otis included so many people tend to forget about the great soul/RnB music that was made in this decade. Great chart.
