Phew. Well That was an interesting exercise for me, as it highlighted my music collecting periods over the last 30 years and what I was buying at those times and what magazines I was reading that had an influence on what I brought. Also there are around 40-50 albums on this list that I use to own or am quite familiar with as someone I know had them.
