my quick ranking. 3-10 nearly interchangeable though

Country Joe famous for Fixin To Die Rag singalong at Woodstock but was low-key the master of the vibe

@HeyFella @twinkletoez

Gotta consider the singles as well Your Mind and Laughing Stock easily could've made the album

recorded in january 1968

Oh good makes things easier

Post your rank

duwap - shopping spree

Working on it still

@twinkletoez Norman Whitfield gets credit for pioneering psychedelic soul but HDH beat him to the punch tbh also Hendrix but for Motown this is the first one.

Also Dianas got insane charisma when shes not doing that weird smile/sing thing :ohno:

another year another low-key Marvin banger

last classic from Martha and the girls

Levi Stubbs the only lead singer that didnt let Barry Gordy turn it into "Levi Stubbs & The Four Tops" like the rest of the Motown acts did that year even though he was the most cataclysmic singer on the whole roster

Motown SOTY

@twinkletoez great song (devastating when you know the backstory) but also feel like its set the mold for the "too smooth, imo" soul that dominated the next decade

edit; further research shows this was recorded with LA session men and not in Detroit wth the Funk Brothers and his usual right hand man Marv f***ing knew it

luckily he didnt fully sell out this was the year Dylan called him "Americas greatest living poet"

all my physicals for '67

@RVI pull up

all i got for 67

Your Left Banke cd

oh yeah forgot

I get it
