Attica Blues is the best thing on either team, whilst I'd take Europe '72 and possibly every other album on that 1972 album over anything on that 2012 team (barring, perhaps, Quarantine or Channel Orange). Seriously, all those 1972 albums are at least very good, even if Mitchell, Wonder, and Cluster all did better, but that 2012 team just doesn't appeal to me very much at all. Singles are a bit closer (I've been disappointed with 1972's singles in every match so far), but 'Whiskey in the Jar' and particularly 'Love Train' are the best things here, which is just the cherry on top, I guess. So yeah, vote to 1972, by lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots.

I actually quite like the 2012 team, but I haven't decided how I'm voting yet. Still some listening to do.

Revolver def is no slouch in getting me wet with those singles (Laurrrrrraaaaaaaaa) two of which are my favorite songs of the decade and that Miguel and Killer Mike selection out of nowhere is brilliant, but that albums team is very inconsitent. I always thought Channel Orange was three or so very good songs packaged in one massively overrated album, The Money Store does nothing personally and Bloom is very good but BH did better. Quarantine and Shields are excellent though. With 72 I like the Wonder album, never cared for Europe 72 and For the Roses is a very strong, underrated Joni album but followed by two masterpieces that overshadow it a bit too much. Singles are strong but with more than a slight dose of cheese. Haven't heard Cluster and apparently the pivotal Attica Blues album, so Ill listen and that might be the deciding factor as both teams have their ups and downs.

Not sure who I'm voting here yet, but I just want to give mad props to nachosbob for pulling out 4 stellar teams.
