I know what you mean! Outrageous there's something made in the last 30 years in the Top 10.

As far as albums go, to have six top 30 singles, is a pretty reasonable achivement. "So What" is one of the highest selling singles in Australian history, four times platinum. It's one of the more successful albums of the last few years and Australia is her highest market, per capita, in the world (sales per head of population). It's also a darned good album :)

Only own 3 of those (Live- Throwing Copper, P/finger- Internationalist, and Zeppelin 4)

Little wonder I don’t tune into MMM.

Likewise - I also own five. Much of that dreck has been thrashed to death on repetitive-playlist commercial radio for years; I never saw the need to actually buy many of those albums.

There is some great albums in there...with alot of crap albums too!!! (personal taste I guess)

But for me when the album was released and the time it came out...I usually purchased it.

Now, I cant remember the last time I bought a new release album. I just tend to by vinyl now.

Cant stand Pink, Robbie.....to me music these days has been killed by the digital era!!! :(
