haven't we done this already?

Just the top 5, I think.

 

It's important to get the bottom 5 in to support the top 5. Don't you think so FG?

While your question is pertinent, this isn't the bottom 5. It's the next 5 of one's favorite records. The bottom 5 records would be a lot harder to pick for me. Color me, pedantic. :16ton:
