Top 100 Music Albums of the 1960s
by Madrocker 
Although I can't say I like all of these albums, I do have a great respect for all of them and the artists who created them. Their influence on the music of the 60's (in my opinion, the greatest decade for recorded music) is immeasurable. Please feel free to comment.
