This is a great chart. Good variety of artists. Quite a few of my favorites and some reminders of great stuff I have not heard in a while, plus some I have not heard which always makes it interesting.

Awesome classic rock from the sixties and seventies. And some surprising personal favorites of mine like Mott, Boz Scaggs, Quicksilver, Ten Years After, Steve Miller. Even Loverboy and Sniff n the Tears.

A little different from most charts on this site, but severely stereotyped in its focus on 1970s and 1980s rock.

Nice choices. Great seeing Beggars Banquet at number one.
