Top 100 Music Albums of the 1970s by 
jhuik 
Big parts of this decade were still before my time. Mixed bag of albums I loved when I was a kid, (albums I actually played too much during this decade because I was a kid, alright!?), along with music that deserves recognition, even if some of it I didn't have a clue about at that time.
