Best Album Of 1973

[BimboBob]

Old twats. I've never heard of any of these bands/ albums especially Goats Head Soup or Aladdin Sane.

 

[brass neck]

Well the two standouts from 73 were obviously quadrophenia and dark side. For me quadrophenia as it isn't as pretentious as dark side and it was Townshend in his pomp. The home made demo is probably a better album than other good stuff from that year!

Tres Hombres seconded. ZZ Top were a great band in the 70s.
