If not for my personal bias, this would be the greatest album ever made! I'm sure everything and anything has been said about it, but I'll just reiterate how impressive the transitions are.

Though Born to Run is THE SPRINGSTEEN ALBUM, this album doesn't get the love it deserves for creating that full band rock sound. Rosalita may be his best song. Springsteen is such an engrossing songwriter by pulling the listener into a story that he should write a movie already.

Cool top 40...I look forward to seeing more. Nice surprise to see the under appreciated (not under rated because those that do listen to it rate it well) Tash Sultana here.

Also, I'm surprised you know Ripe. I saw them in Pittsburgh earlier this year and they were great! I think they're out of Berkley, Boston.

Some pretty good picks on this list. Some hot takes on classic albums from the 60s and 70s. Nice list!
