Top 72 Music Albums of 1975 by 
AAL2014 
Another spectacular year for music as the 70’s roll along. 1975 really feels like a pivotal time for music and music releases. Production values feel different going forward and genres have fully blossomed while some of those said genres have already dissipated. Some artists have given all they’ve got by ‘75 while others are just now beginning a tremendous incline.
Here you’ll find 7 albums in my top 100 main chart (including Born To Run my second favorite album ever) with a bunch of others I’d have in contention to join them. I’d say the top 30 here is very strong.
