This is a legit Rod Stewart contender

Every Picture Tells a Story, released May 1971, is the third album by Rod Stewart. It incorporates hard rock, folk, and blues styles.[2] It went to number one on both the UK and US charts and finished third in the Jazz & Pop critics' poll for best album of 1971.[3] It has been an enduring critical success, including a number 172 ranking on Rolling Stone's 2003 list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.[4]
 
I love me some Race Bannon but Master of Puppets or GTFO
 
Also, The Clash was a good inclusion.

I respeck Master but it's not everyday listening for me. London Calling I can listen to all day long and not get burned out.
 

This is in my top 10 of best thirds. BUT I'm trying to be objective and give the kiddies some options.

Fuck @BearsWiin and the boat he rowed in on

So back in 1998 wife and I were staying at Gasthof Simony, which is on the water maybe 100 yards behind where this pic was taken. One rainy afternoon we were sitting on the deck overlooking the lake under the eaves (Zimmer #14) sipping Fanta and eating Soletti pretzel sticks while relaxing doing some afternoon reading, when the couple next door came out onto their deck and started complaining to each other that they didn't come all the way from Minnesota to have it rain on them in Austria blah blah blah. She goes inside again as he stays out, leans on the balcony railing and looks out over the lake, and he sees two swans swimming close by the little lakeside terrace area at the base of the hotel. He says to his wife "Hey Honey, come look there are swans on the lake" and we can hear her loudly respond from inside "REAL swans?" Twenty years later my wife will still chuckle if I say "REAL swans?"
