every year has it's fair share of the best and worst songs of all time on average.

that's why the best decade for music debate is null and void.

The song came out in '73 sorry

Well I’ll be reposting it. Let’s not go by single releases. The album dropped in 74.

Nah too late Ive been going by single release dates the whole time. It's a song thread not album.

Especially when the single comes out like half a year before the album.

@Elric

whew

Always makes me think of the last track on American Heartbreak @RVI @RASIE

i kinda hear it

youre definitely the first person in human history to make a connection between Zach Bryan and Gong though

Gong got their best album IMO coming next year. not sure if youll feel the same though

Not sonically obviously. But I get the same effect from;

"It is night, it's not night
I'm happy, I'm not happy
I'm sad, I'm not sad
It's early, It's late"

And

"I'm lost but I know where I'm going,
I can't make out the name but I know every word,
I don't know where I am but I know exactly where I am"

American Gongbreak

Roadmaster revisit hitting hard. Might be my favorite Gene album tbh. The songwriting is just so consistent. Perfect melodies everywhere. Really tight timeless songs.

Same man can't believe I neglected it for so long. Every song exquisite.

His peak Byrds stuff and No Other still my favorite but Roadmaster might have surpassed the Dillard & Clark album for me which is crazy enough.

"Fanny were one of the finest rock bands of their time, in about 1973.... They're as important as anybody else who's ever been, ever; it just wasn't their time"

Their album is great tbh. Between them and Suzi Quatro this is easily the best year for female rock since the days of Wanda Jackson and Brenda Lee.

managed to make a Yes/Beatles mashup sound awesome lol

did you check this album out @Fella

not the biggest early tom fan but this is nice

men of good fortune

often cause

empires too fall

I haven’t but it sounds up my alley.

I never could get into much Suzi Quatro. I like Devil Gate Drive from 73, but the only other song of hers that has connected with me was If You Can’t Give Me Love from 78.

this performance sold me

also this

looks like Devil Gate drive is 1974
