Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

Queen - A Night At The Opera

Fleetwood Mac - Rumours

The Who - Whos Next

 

Fine selection there. I'm  amazed no one suggested these before you did; you're the 30th post on this thread.

Carole King and Neil Diamond suggests my wife. I'd throw in albums by Bowie, Slade and Black Sabbath. It all depends on your musical preference. Some people would plump for Simon & Garfunkel or even Nana Mouskouri!

Oh now THAT is a stunning album. When I grew up and discovered it's not actually all about punk, ska, indie and rave, Carole King became a constant on my playlist. One of the first on the team sheet and a regular starter ever since. Great voice, insanely talented songwriter.

A fine choice @One Team In Keynsham

Sounds like we are the same on this:  I discovered this album way after my indie years.  Cracking album, overflowing with classics.

Punk came late to Street, Somerset, :ph34r:but hearing Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables by The Dead Kennedys changed the way I related to music fundamentally.

Nowadays I like all sorts of 70s stuff that my younger, more puritan self would have rejected outright including Neil Young; Fairport Convention and even some Pink Floyd albums.

My fave pre-punk 70s album currently is probably Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan.

Dead Kennedys might have made it as far as Street, but clearly it never made it out to the sticks, knowing my wife and her sister grew up seemingly on a never ending diet of Abba.

Great shout of Fresh Fruit..

I have my mate "Wig" to thank for it, OTIK.

Now a senior council officer in a West Country authority,  I wonder if he ever reflects on Let's Lynch The Landlord during planning meetings? !

Great shout Robbo.

Only surpassed by Aja, IMO (as above).
