  1. What a wonderful year for music! Amost every album a favorite and still in roation thirty-mumble years later.

    Vangelis, Asia, McCartney and Springsteen were picked up later but the rest were essential as soon as possible pick-ups.

    Am I reading the table right? It wasn't until the final week of the year that all three charts synched up?
