not bad. A lot of *obscure* titles, and some that are not really all that obscure. And mostly older albums from the 60's and 70's, which is understandable given the magazine and people submitting the lists. I should try and check out some of these, namely the Jazz-Rock and some of those Psyche records I've never heard-of.
I'm really not all that clear on what the difference is in some of the genres tho. namely "Country Rock" and "Southern Rock." Maybe that's like early Metal and Metal now, or "Hard Rock" and "Metal." Definitely there are times the lines get awfully blurry.
