I love / like almost all of the artists on your chart, really good taste but....... I have a real overersion to compliations / best ofs being in a best ever albums list. They may be a collection of great songs but they aren't a single body of work. The only exceptions would be artists like Robert Johnson who did have the means to make albums, The Stones (Hot Rocks), would get a thump down, 'cos they could & did.
