The Gasbuster Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 Between Led Zeppelin IV and Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the Moon. Too close to call a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhistleHappy Posted March 10, 2016 Report Share Posted March 10, 2016 This might help nudge a few memories and may make your choice not quite as easy or obvious as you first thought.... there's quite a choice out there.... http://m.pitchfork.com/features/lists-and-guides/5932-top-100-albums-of-the-1970s/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, Blue Oyster Cult's Agents Of Fortune had to be up there. Absolute classic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
