I did however notice I missed out one album which was Van Morrison's It's Too Late To Stop Now from 1974 which I've since read about and listened to.

I really enjoyed this, I'm surprised by how many artists / albums I've not heard of before. I now need to research the new editions to see which albums have been removed / added since this addition.
