Top 15 Music Albums of the 1970s by Fergenaprido

Studio albums, EPs, musicals, and soundtracks with at least some original compositions. If no songs are highlighted for an album, it's because I didn't rate any of them 80 or higher.
When I think of the '70s I think of Classic Rock and Disco, neither of which I'm particularly fond of. I'm slowly making my way through select albums, starting with what I found in my father's den.

I want to like this so much more than I do. I have some real favourites on this album, but there is so much filler that it's just okay. I guess Disc 1 is better than Disc 2. Mother; Goodbye Blue Sky; Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2).
