The Beach Boys - Surf's Up (1971)

IMO one of the best album covers ever, but every time I break it out, my phone shows the picture of Sunflower instead because my copy was a combined Sunflower/Surf's Up album.... granted, first world problems, right

No thanks. I've decided to kneel in protest.

Just kidding, but WTF? So much great Zep over the dam(n) before this one, which is (incidentally) also fantastic.

We mentioned Zep earlier and haven't looked ahead to future picks by them. Still, though I'm a big fan of Houses of the Holy and Physical Graffiti, it's had to imagine most music critics ignoring Zep II (and many critics would have included Zep I and/or III).

David Bowie - Hunky Dory (1971)

Mickey Newbury - 'Frisco Mabel Joy

Nice surprise - out of the early 70s country singer/songwriter would have thought Kristofferson's debut or some other albums would have made the cut over this one, but this is a good 'un.
