Wish The Kinks could have cracked the top 5. Paul and John ain't got shit on Ray Davies.

Highway 61 was #1 for a while before being overtaken. It almost managed to make it back to the #2 spot at the very end but fell just short.

Thanks, Joaquim! Great presentation. Like these results even if many were kinda obvious ... with this decade, the essentials are just pretty undeniable. Can't wait for the '70s, which should be even more interesting.

Great work again Joaq... and very good results.
'70s should have double the turnout at least... or else we're really dealing with a bunch of bozos.

Glad to see the proper #1 come out on top And with a pretty considerable margin of victory!! Yea it took the lead a bit towards the end and never looked back.
Well it lost the lead to The Doors for a little bit while I was counting my ballot and then took the lead right back since it was on my ballot too.

Great job Joaquim - Can't say I agree with the position but this is a very good list overall. Can't say the list didn't reflect the 60s it totally did that..........

The right Beatles album made the top 5, but Rubber Soul is way too low. Revolver is overrated. Zeppelin's first album is absurdly low (only 2 ballots?!) No Big Brother and the Holding Company Cheap Thrills or Dusty Springfield Dusty in Memphis I've tried liking Astral Weeks, but I've always found it mind-numbingly dull. I also just can't stand Van Morrison's voice and get bored listening to the same vocal inflections over and over again. Never could get into Velvet Underground, but I'm glad The Doors placed so high. Great job, Joaquim!

Which I just noticed means someone else also put it at #4. That was me Sgt. Pepper's is probably my favorite Beatles album, but not by far. I like all of them. Best band of the 60's by far. Great work, Joaquim! This was fun. I need to start thinking about my list for the 70's...

God save the Kinks!
Days of Future Passed and the Coltrane albums made it on single handedly because of me.
VU & Nico is a fine no. 1 even if it wasn't mine.
Abbey Road is a big Beatles album that I don't like much. It just sounds too contrived and fake to me. Revolver/Pepper/White Album are their holy trinity.
