    I simply can't judge your taste on 5 albums. That would be unscientific or something. You think that one over and I'll grade it tomorrow.

    Jaysus, not much interested in the last 20 years at all? 4.7


    Gosh thanks Mister I really am thrilled with your rating. I wonder if I put GNR in there what I would have scored. I didn't realise there was music in the last 20 years, I guess I am just an old headbanger at heart.

    There's a limitation as this thread appears to be restricted to albums. It's probably why people are unsure and reluctant. Elvis (the seed of much of the names listed) didn't release great albums as albums weren't conceived as an income sources until the early 70's. Hit singles prior to that. Great thread though; I'll check out the higher detail.
