An amazing Timberlake single and a very good (verging on great) Molina record aren't enough to beat a team that includes that brilliant Callier record and that brilliant Mingus record and that brilliant Morrison record, let alone 'Skylarking' and 'Tiny Dancer', both of which are among the greatest songs of all-time. Easy vote to '72 for me.

Yup. Voted '72.

If anyone has watched the brand new episodes of Trailer Park Boys, "Tiny Dancer" may be enough to clinch a victory by itself.

Gonna need to sit and think on this one. both have some records I need to spin, but right now may be leaning towards 1972, because I really love that Raspberries single

Yay! Thick as a Brick! It's in my top 15, in my vinyl collection. Go All The Way was THE best single of 1972.

2002 will have to be really good to beat 1972, but I will give it a fair listen.

1972 is a "probably vote" for me (that Callier record is incredible), but I need to listen before I make a decision.

Hmm tasty matchup. I haven't heard a few 1972 albums but from what I have I like a great deal (although it's a lesser Jethro Tulll record), and the singles are very strong. 2002 may just do a little for me personally though, the great Songs: Ohia record and a pretty stellar lineup overall, and the singles win many nostalgia points (Don't Know Why <3). Will do some more listening but leaning 02
