Solid list! Lots in common, too! But very heavy on the 70's...

I have to say this is probably the best chart I have seen - yes better than my chart. There are a number of albums in this list that I have only just started listening to like Rolling Stones, Stevie Wonder, Radiohead, etc. So they haven't quite worked up enough listens yet to get into my Top 40!
