the list is a drag, brrrr. i'd like to cross out something like 90%.
er...make that 99%.
the beach boys are still great in my book. i just bought all their early
stuff& it all rules, including "pet sounds" which i always believed was
hippy shit.
i got the pink slip daddy,

> 12. SLY AND THE FAMILY STONE

This here is a nice surprise, although I'm left wondering how the Stones
managed to get only 9th place, and the Replacements appear nowhere on the
