The top 50 acts of the 1960s. This list is based off of the 2.3.0061 version of website tsort.info. The top 50 were calculated by a scoring system, by taking an artist's/group's hit songs and albums into account. Each act plays two or three of their (often arguably) biggest song hits of the decade. Based on the speed, a song can play anywhere from 15-24 seconds. For any further questions on how the top 50 acts were selected, I suggest that you visit tsort.info and ask them, as they will have all the information you will need.
