Top 100 Music Albums of the 1960s by Hyggevinyl 
This is a work in progress. I am doing a year at a time from 1960 to now in random order. I've gone through all years of the 60s except 1960 and 1968. Also, I'm going through some of the years one more time to look for anything I might have missed. Please let me know if you think I'm missing something.

Im a big Dylan and CCR fan so I was disappointed to only see 2 and 1 entries... but I guess I understand if you're into good vocals and jazz.. Absolutely love the rest of your selections of course, and like your 90s chart, you leave me with a lot more to discover.
