You got all the very best 70s classic rock here and all of my favorites anyway. I don't know why people always forget about Venus and Mars. To me it's one of the top seventies albums. But how come Blue is the only Joni Mitchell album that you ever see around here? It's not even in her top five in my opinion. Well, maybe number 5 or 6
