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!
