If there’s a more @creepycoug academis superiority guy song than My Old School I don’t know what it would be.
 
Trying to not go “off the board” here (TYFYS Yella!), it came down to 2 criteria...then vs.now
THEN: Dark Side (I remember my “smoking phase”); Skynyrd...I ain’t the one ++; Countdown...
NOW: Iggy; Quadrophenia; Countdown...Strong top to bottom for me, My Old School and Showbiz Kids (may have been the first time I heard an F-Bomb on radio)...
 
Getting old sucks...it may be just me, but every time I hear a “classic” song on KEXP / KBCS, my first thought is “Oh shit, did Stevie Wonder die? Did George Clinton just kick?”...FML
 
@BleachedAnusDawg this album “rocks” harder than anything ever recorded.

Sounds like a punk garage band to me. There are only a handful of artists I like prior to the late-70's. Respect many, but don't care to listen to them (The Beatles, Stones, etc).

They were perhaps the most influential Proto punk group of all time.
 
Great year. My junior year in high school

I like Floyd better now than then. All time weeks on the chart

In 73 it was Houses of the Holy, Skynard. and the Who

What the fuck is Paul Simon on this list for? Was Rod out sticking gerbils up his ass?

When I think back on all the crap you learned in High School, I say Fuck Off.

I don't care for punk. Sounds sloppy to me.

If we are gonna bash sloppy rock and roll then I’m fucking out.
 
It's Dark Side but Skynyrd was really close for me.

Pretty stacked year.

For sure. It’s one of the most stacked. Probably a year where 3 albums get into the album tournament.
 
Shame on usº

It wouldn't have changed my vote, but still. Great album. Waiting for The Bus/Jesus Just Left Chicago is a fantastic opener.

Agree @GrundleStiltzkin. I’ve screwed over ZZ Top. But they don’t have an album that can win one of these years sadly.
 
This is basically a first among several equals for me.

What a great year. Like Penny,

First off, kudos for all the solid pictures that start these threads off ... mad respect

I'm terrible when it comes to albums and whatnot as it's never been my cup of tea listening to albums from start to finish ...

I'd definitely echo Elton John and Goodbye Yellow Brick Road though ... that's a super strong entry
