Has anyone mentioned 'Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars'~David Bowie. I think it came out about 72/73 & is still 1 of the all-time Greats, imo. I'm sure there's lotsa peeps who don't care for it, but the way it was put together & the songs that kinda run together, is an excellent piece-of-work.

Speaking of pieces-of-work.... :chin:.....how the hell are ya, Dociron & Doc Smitty? :wave: :woohoo:

Rellik said it right. Black Sabbath - Master of Reality. A truly prophetic album about what Could/Is happen(ing) on Earth and in the head of madmen.

Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick, Songs from the Wood

Genesis - Nursery Cryme, Foxtrot

The visuals you'd get with that song were heavy-duty... :pointlaug :wave:

Savoy Brown's Street Corner Talkin' is 1 of the best albums. I used to play that album until I think I wore grooves right thru it.
Plus the cover-design by R Crumb, who also did my avatar between Big Brother & the Holding Company's album & Street Corner Talkin', is 1 of R's many masterpieces.
