    Let it Bleed - The Rolling Stones
    I’m envisioning a 64 album tournament when football is cancelled this fall. Some years will just get 1 album in. 1969 May get the conference champ plus 2 at larges.

    It's hard not to vote for Neil here. It's just really hard to compete.

    Neil Young had a shit ton of terrific albums, but @alumni94 I think Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere was the 1st among equals. He never surpassed the greatness of this recording.

    You maybe right, but some strong arguments could be made for a few others, such as Tonight's the Night, Harvest....

    Dazed & Confused is a kick ass song. Probably my favorite Zeppelin song.

    Goldrush, Harvest, Beach, Tonight, and Rust will be featured in this series. Not sure if there are any wins here but maybe some podiums for sure.

    You could add in Ragged Glory, Mirror Ball and Broken Arrow.

    On the Beach usually wins my internal polling. Time Fades Away is way under rated as a live album. Yonder Stands the Sinner he calls my name!

    City in the smog.
    The Black Crowes (with Marc Ford) did an excellent live version of L.A.

    The LZs and CCR were all neck and neck. Ramble On was my personal tie breaker.

    The first time I remember hearing a vinyl record is was Whole Lotta Love playing. This record wrote the metal blue print. Sabbath took it to the logical conclusion.
    My dad's copy had a scratch on Whole Lotta Love. Later, it didn't sound right without the scratch & hiss. Thus a vinyl love was borne.
