I primi cinque accedono di diritto alla fase finale, Abbey Road [in corsivo per questo] invece può ancora farcela, qualora si qualificasse come una delle due migliori seste delle due categorie.

Commentino personale: la classifica che più o meno mi aspettavo, sono felice non si ripetano gli artisti nelle prime posizioni [il sergente può benissimo essere "rappresentato" dei Beatles, e nonostante gli preferisca altri lavori, non troverei rappresentante migliore].

Mi dispiace un sacco per In The Court, maledetti.




Seconda categoria: 1970 - 1979!
