Produced by John Fogerty. The worst album cover of all time hides one of the best rock and roll albums ever made. The height of everything that was great about Creedence, Cosmo's Factory contains a bunch of Fogerty's greatest songs, along with some nice classic covers, including a full 11 minutes of the glorious "I Heard It Through The Grapevine". At the sixties end and the dawn of the seventies, this was maybe the greatest band on earth. This album is living proof that they really were on the same level as The Beatles & Stones...for awhile.

Produced by Geoff Haslam, Shel Kagan & The Velvet Underground. A lot of people dismiss Loaded, but I think it deserves a place next to the rest of the Velvet's work. Even above it. I know...Cale is gone, as is Mo Tucker. It's a Lou Reed album, but it shows that the Velvets could have done great pop music if they had stuck around. Some of Reed's best songs..."Sweet Jane", "Rock & Roll", and the best Velvet's song ever in "Who Loves The Sun", the saddest piece of candy ever. [First added to this chart: 04/11/2012]

Produced by Tom Dowd. Way too short at 30 minutes, the second album by The Allman Brothers Band is simply otherwise masterful. Containing only seven songs, they all rank among the best by this band. Dickey Betts contributes "Revival" and the beautiful "In Memory Of Elizabeth Reed", Berry Oakley sings one ("Hoochie Coochie Man"), and the guitar mastery of Duane Allman can be heard everywhere. Another 15 minutes of music would have been nice, but when it comes to the classic lineup of this band, it's hard to complain. [First added to this chart: 04/11/2012]
