Dan,

I agree with everything except one - Some Girls.

That album was the end of the Stones. I had my one and only chance to see them right after that album was released. I spoke to one bloke who went, and he said the concert absolutely sucked, starting with Peter Tosh as warm-up.

Jan Akkerman!! His guitar playing is pure genius. One of the other fellows in the defunct Focus band, Thijs van Leer, had a classical background, and his compositions are really audible mathemetics!

What did you have to go and start this thread for? Between this one and the 80's one, everytime I go to go do something I think of another and come back down. At this rate I am never going to get anything done today. LOL

Wings-Greatest Hits

Yeppers on ABBA. And don't forget Rick Wakeman's "Journey to the Centre of the Earth," a marvelous sprawl of an LP.
