    Far too many to mention, including KISS, Sweet's Desolation Blvd., Jackson Browne's Late For The Sky, Deep Purple's Burn and Stormbringer, Frank Zappa's Apostrophe and (I think) one or two Queen albums.

    The Lamb from that list followed by Caibou and Pretzel logic, but yeah, Craig is right. A ton of great ones that year.
    Don't you boys know any nice songs?

    I went with Bad Company, but this was a hard choice.

    Definitely other for me. Some good albums listed but none would make my top 10:

    1. Neil Young - On the Beach
    2. Gram Parsons - Grevious Angel
    3. Lynyrd Skynyrd - Second Helping
    4. Bob Dylan - Planet Waves
    5. Tom Waits - The Heart of Saturday Night
    6. New York Dolls - Too Much Too Soon
    7. Big Star - Radio City
    8. Richard & Linda Thompson - I Want to Hear the Bright Lights...
    9. John Cale - Fear
    10. Robin Trower - Bridge of Sighs

    Aerosmith- Get Your Wings with Robin Trower's Bridge Of Sighs real close behind.

    I'm voting for the Stones' It's Only Rock n' Roll. Boy was there some great music in '74 or what?
    If I’m able to offend you so easily, to me that means you already recognize some truth in what I’ve written, but you aren’t ready to face it consciously yet. If you read something from me that provokes an emotional reaction, then a seed has already been planted. In other words, it’s already too late for you.

    No one has. It's just that it came out in 1973.

    Maybe he's thinking it was '74 because it came out in December of '73.

    I concur 100%. Why do they always leave the Kiss albums out of these polls.
    I'm a spark on the horizon!
