I really like this chart because it has great deal in common with my record collection. It does have things that I haven't heard yet, so I have some new sounds on my radar. And Piccadilly Records is a great record shop. Everyone should have a shop that they grew up with.

[Guest]

thanks Lanc.... and for the support for Piccadilly Records - undoubtedly the best record shop in Britain, if you are in the area try it out!

Obviously this is the best chart on the site... (or not but I am trying!! )

[Facetious]

A fascinating chart for sure. I like the focus on personal life, memories and personal choices. And it's not like the personal choices are not great!

[CellarDoor]

GORGEOUS !

Great chart other than the glaring omission of 'Saturday Night Fever'

[purple]

One of the greats. You can't find a more personal chart, and you can't find someone who has as much fun listening to music as soulsister, and you can't find a better representation of the underrepresented '80s, and everyone should rub cocaine on their genitals.

[rsongster]

Guess I am going to have to give The La's a listen.

[HigherThanTheSun]

Mmmm Hatful Of Hollow, perfect number 1.

My favourite chart on the site, more for the biographical comments than the albums
