This is a legit Rod Stewart contender

Every Picture Tells a Story, released May 1971, is the third album by Rod Stewart. It incorporates hard rock, folk, and blues styles.[2] It went to number one on both the UK and US charts and finished third in the Jazz & Pop critics' poll for best album of 1971.[3] It has been an enduring critical success, including a number 172 ranking on Rolling Stone's 2003 list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.[4]

This is in my top 10 of best thirds. BUT I'm trying to be objective and give the kiddies some options.

So back in 1998 wife and I were staying at Gasthof Simony, which is on the water maybe 100 yards behind where this pic was taken. One rainy afternoon we were sitting on the deck overlooking the lake under the eaves (Zimmer #14) sipping Fanta and eating Soletti pretzel sticks while relaxing doing some afternoon reading, when the couple next door came out onto their deck and started complaining to each other that they didn't come all the way from Minnesota to have it rain on them in Austria blah blah blah. She goes inside again as he stays out, leans on the balcony railing and looks out over the lake, and he sees two swans swimming close by the little lakeside terrace area at the base of the hotel. He says to his wife "Hey Honey, come look there are swans on the lake" and we can hear her loudly respond from inside "REAL swans?" Twenty years later my wife will still chuckle if I say "REAL swans?"

Great album! But am I the only one who thinks Thunder Road and Born to Run are the same song?

He cut it all off about four months later. That was 20 months ago, and it's now even longer than in the pic. Frizzier, too. That's the way he wants it, Def Lep High'n'Dry/Framptonesque.





I'm just glad that the fedora phase has passed

I was impressed with the son I met in Berkeley

He suffered with a quiet dignity as his dad hung out with some idiots in a bar

It was probably worthy to make it in. But we'll see how the boss does when we get to like the Best 7th or 8th album pole in the series.

I kept off a top 15 album for me. This is one of the all time great pantie droppers.

Race, would really like me in REAL life. I am respectful of my elders to a fault.

Who - The Who Sell Out

I voted for the Who? just because I know know one will vote for them, this album was hilarious I thought and was Townsend working on his rock operas



No offense to the guys who voted Springsteen. He is highly over-rated to me.

The Who are about to start doing well in this series of poles. Who Sell Out was a great record but their best albums were yet to come.
