Display Posts by Date

I was just wondering if there was a way I can display all the posts on my blog by date? For example, on the front page I want to display all the posts from the year 2007, on the next page 2006, and so on. I also want to separate the posts by month. Basically I want to get the same functionality as an archives page except I want the post content on the page as well.

So yeah just wondering if anyone knows of any plugins or any way I can configure wordpress to make it happen?
