Good list, yourself, Rocketman!

You know I love all FM albums and eras but mostly those years with Bob Welch, so I gotta add Penguin or Heroes are Hard to Find.

[Baz]

I'd include this one as well........

[Baz]

Can't forget this gem either......

And it not just older stuff. In recent years Markus Miller has done some great stuff and "We Are" (John Batiste's latest - released in 2021) is really good.

Yeah. I understand the lists posted, Aka, DSOTM, Wish you were here etc. but none approach Kind of Blue, Blue Train or Maiden Voyage

Two more for my list:


Hard to pick just one FZ, but IMHO this narrowly beats out "Shiek Yerbouti"


It's really hard to pick between this one and "Maiden Voyage"

Not seen these yet-

Loggins & Messina - Sittin' In
Cat Stevens - Tea for the Tillerman

I'm surprised no one has said "the perfect album" was one that opened up, usually a "double album", and along with your Ralph's card or a playing card was used to de-seed your bag of dope.

Kids are scratching theirs heads over this one .... double albums ... seeds ... WTF?

Everybody had a designated double album deseeder back then!
