Don't know how much this helps, but they appear to have updated the '67 list:
http://ultimateclassicrock.com/summer-of-love-songs/
Like Uncut, it's deemed a "summer of love" list despite not every song being released in that summer. It's unordered, so I don't know whether it's counted instead of the top 10 (which is still on the site) or in addition to it.

Buffalo Springfield, 'For What It's Worth'
Rolling Stones, 'Ruby Tuesday'
Jimi Hendrix, 'Purple Haze'
Bee Gees, 'New York Mining Disaster 1941'
Young Rascals, 'Groovin'"
Turtles, 'Happy Together'
Music Explosion, 'Little Bit O' Soul'
The Doors, 'Light My Fire'
Jefferson Airplane, 'Somebody To Love'
Mamas and Papas, 'Creeque Alley'
Procol Harum, 'Whiter Shade of Pale'
Scott McKenzie, 'San Francisco'
Strawberry Alarm Clock, 'Incense and Peppermints'
The Kinks, 'Waterloo Sunset'
Pink Floyd, 'See Emily Play'
Jefferson Airplane, 'White Rabbit'
Beatles, 'All You Need Is Love'
Monkees, 'Pleasant Valley Sunday'
Beach Boys, 'Heroes and Villains'
Rolling Stones, 'We Love You' b/w 'Dandelion'
Young Rascals, 'How Can I Be Sure'
Eric Burdon and the Animals, 'San Franciscan Nights'
The Box Tops, 'The Letter'

Although UCR sometimes have lists signed by the whole team, there's a single author's name behind these three lists. Not eligible for now.

Edit: On the other hand there's a single writer's name behind the yearly top 10s for albums too, and I said tgey were eligible, didn't I? :?

The '67/'68 songs lists are already in the summary, as are the umpteen other song/album lists.

If it helps, I'm adding all the album lists to the spreadsheet, so don't worry about 'em.
