From CharlieBarley 01/19/2017 00:29

46 albums in common in my second favourite decade for music after the 70s. Although it had loads of good music many artists which had their infancy in the 60s produced terrific albums in the 70s, from Pink Floyd, Neil Young, Led Zeppelin even the Rolling Stones and the Who, although they all had good albums in the 60s. Even the Beatles produced some sterling solo work in the 70s. But you have to give the 60s their due. Musicians took the baton from rock'n'roll of the 50s and produced pop music. All different kinds. Such a musically rich decade for music. An a very good chart.
