    I’ll always vote for ‘69.

    It’s a strong contender.

    I'm pretty sure ll these albums were released in 1979 - the year of the greatest rock album ever created, Highway to Hell.

    Highway to Hell - AC/DC
    London Calling - The Clash
    The Wall - Pink Floyd
    Van Halen II - Van Halen
    Damn the Torpedoes - TP
    The Who - The Kids Are Alright
    Scorpions - Lovedrive
    Foreigner - Head Games
    ZZ Top - Deguello
    The Cars - Candy O
    Led Zeppelin - In Through The Out Door
    Neil Young and Crazy Horse - Rust Never Sleeps
    Supertramp - Breakfast in America
    Bob Dylan - Slow Train Coming
    Cheap Trick - Dream Police
    Ramones - It's Alive
    Prince - Prince

    That's a pretty good batch of albums to choose from.

    Disagree. But you listed Pink Floyd, The Wall, so we’re good.

    Tough choices...66 has too many of my top cuts to deny
    In doing research (because I’m bored), I found a list with the top 4 being

    Rolling Stones - Aftermath (British edition for me, Out of Time was a revelation with marimba)
    Beach Boys - Pet Sounds
    Beatles - Revolver
    Dylan - Blonde on Blonde

    Plus albums by...
    Willie Nelson
    Ray Charles
    The Kinks
    Cream
    The Sonics

    The guy gets it. 1966 is really the year album oriented rock came into existence. Pet Sounds and Revolver are right behind Pepper in Rolling Stones top 3 albums of all time.

    45 singles were the currency pre album orientated rock aka AOR

    We listened to all three on a dirty rainy night in Yella’s gimp basement.
    The chord changes on Giant Steps are as difficult as anal sex.

    This story checks out.

    Separating some chaff, you make a strong case.

    True. Over the years I have noticed that for roughly 90% of the albums / long form recordings I own, the song that inspired me to buy it eventually became my least favorite song on it...
