45 albums from 28 artists in common. I've never seen anything close to that before. Obviously you have good taste.

Great 60s chart, very inspiring. I've also got more into Jimi lately.
"The best decade ever. The number 30 on this chart is better than the number 2 on my 80s chart." - this sounds extreme, but I agree that the 60s were quite superior to the 80s, but I've always seen the 60s as only a half decade full of great music, extremely great music though to fair!
