From the Beginning - Emerson, Lake and Palmer
Best list yet. It was hard not to vote for Bama, but From the Beginning is one of the best things ever recorded.
-
Smoke on the Water - Deep Purple
I'm a ELP guy myself
Need more thought
-
Reelin' in The Years - Steely Dan
Also, one of the great earlier synth rock records.
Had a hard time with this year. Exile especially puts me in a quandary since it's my favorite album of any genre, but the riffing is more Yella centric vs what the plebes here want to see.

From the Beginning - Emerson, Lake and Palmer
Greg Lake had some mad skills. That's him doing everything but the congas and synth.

Just Got Paid - ZZ Top
That is a killer list…I had every one of these recordings (album/45/8 track), sans In the Street, in 1972 (got into Big Star later)…I’d like to thank Columbia House for building my music collection, for 1 cent…

Reelin' in The Years - Steely Dan
Big Star is a cult band that know one knew at the time.
I have everything here on 33.333 LP except for Edgar Winter. Have some Johnny Winter on vinyl though.

From the Beginning - Emerson, Lake and Palmer
Columbia House and some other one I can't remember the name of. I used both 3 or 4 times for a total of about 80 disks.
Anyone have an address? I should probably send them a check some day before I die.

Smoke on the Water - Deep Purple
This isn’t hard. Smoke is arguably the most recognizable riff of all time. Its fucked out big time but I was just at our high school basketball game and they played it. 52 years later
