Thanks for your comment on my chart. I find yours an interesting chart, wtih some unique choices for top 10 like that Haken album. I wish it could get to 100 picks and there were some comments about your choices. As it is a relatively new chart, I guess that will happen at some point so I won't rate it badly for now :)

Excellent rocking chart. I love to see The Lamb in the top 10, as well as Elliott Smith and his hero, Elvis Costello. Lots of better more obscure picks as well, some I recognize and a few I don't.
