I read everyone's choices and they all work for me so no way to pick one per decade. The 60s in particular were such an explosion of talent you could probably do one per week and still not narrow it down. Anyway..

60s, Purple Haze

70s, Dark Side of the Moon

80s, Sunday Bloody Sunday

90s Mary

00s ?
