(Banging head against the wall) This is a freaking 1972 album. Period. It's not that revolutionary coming out just as punk was blooming. It's monumental in that 1972 context.

This, on the other hand, is one of those "Punk wasn't necessary" albums. And the last 5-star album on this list.

This epic, made such by Bob Ezrin's huge, professional production, has become underrated. "Beth" is very solid for what it is (a '70s pop culture phenomenon), and the other 8 tracks (including Gene's long-tongue-in-cheek "Great Expectations;" get lost, haters) are fantastic. Has a big enough sound to compete with Boston, and it's more fun.

Their "We're still a hard rock band" opus with Eddie Kramer. Banger after banger. "I Want You" is probably the heaviest single track from their initial '70s run.
