Top 61 Music Albums of the 1970s
by 
mutley88 
This has to be my favourite era for music, full of classic albums. 100 is not enough to include every great album from this period. I have chosen what I think to be some definitive albums of the time as well as some lesser known that deserve recognition. As I backtrack through my collection I may have to reevaluate some my choices and upate accordingly.

Great personal chart of the 70', with the common desicion of taking The Dark side first. The nice variety of music makes the chart unique.
