Maybe shouldn't be surprised that one of the biggest and most important albums in musical history won the year, but... I dunno, I'm not the biggest fan of The Wall. But that gives the 'big-3' Floyd albums a 3-0 record in the votes. I was also surprised not to see more love for Unknown Pleasures. Nonetheless, an extremely important and top-heavy year.
1971 will prove to be another, as I'm having a tough time narrowing it down to just 29 albums. This may well be the deepest year, album-wise, in music history. As a big Joni Mitchell stan, I'm going to use my platform to encourage people to Vote for Blue! I know, I know... Lobbying. Still, such a great and fun year.
