PFM is great, but the album that should actually be #7 for 1972 is Modern Lovers. That's when it was recorded, and the context in which it merits to be evaluated. It's a blow to the band's efforts and artistry for the music to be evaluated in the later context in which it was belatedly released. See also Big Star's Third, and of course The Beach Boys' Smile. Yes, I'm bitter. Per Un Amico is actually #8 in 1972.
