Digging the chart. Same taste in many artists and have a number of similar albums in my chart. Big Bowie fan and love Radiohead also. I love the Beatles but feel there are too many weak songs on their albums to give the album such a high rating.
Last year or so I've got into Arcade Fire - don't have Reflektor but if it is better than Funeral it must be some album.
Try Harvest by Neil Young - fantastic.
If you've not heard Strokes First Impression of Earth that's almost as good as Is This It
Note you've no Lou Reed on his own - try Transformer as it has some great songs with extra special Bowie backing vocals on Satellite of Love.
