Revisionist history (Loose canon updated)
This is an update to a list I made back in January 2018, this time not limiting the number per decade but choosing only one title per artist (I cheated with the Who, Hendrix, and Beefheart), limited to 100 total. Numerical order has no significance. Unsurprisingly, there are more from the '70s than any other decade. The golden age of anything is when you came in. And with that, let us be done with compulsive list making till at least the end of the decade. (On the web, you can see the stuff I added because the spacing becomes irregular even if the HTML looks identical. Thanks, Google!)
