See the first post. I think they shouldn't be unless they consist only of music released in the 70s, if that, but that's not what the first post says.

So something like Al Greens greatest hits works ? I guess compilations where the music was recorded and released in the 70s should be allowed.

Hmmm...see, if that's the case, I'd want to include something like the Jackson Five Anthology--basically all-70s (one song released in late 69) and filled with some of my very favorite music of the decade. But, really, it's three albums picking and choosing from the best of sixteen different albums (it draws from Michael and Jermaine's solo work as well as the group's releases).

I mean, on the one hand, I hate to leave out this great music, and there probably isn't one album from their Motown era that makes it for me because their albums then did have a fair amount of filler. But, still--is that really fair? :confused: (What I really want here is a "thinker" smiley.)

just make sure the comps you choose are released in the 70's. That's really all I require. I mean if you found a compilation with 80's material but it was somehow released in the 70's, I'll take it, I mean my head would explode but I'd take it.

Good examples would be Buzzcocks' Singles Going Steady or The Harder They Come Soundtrack

Well, those are compilations with large amounts of material that hadn't been on an album before, so they certainly ought to be eligible. I'm more thinking that greatest-hits type albums (and, for that matter, K-Tel sorts of various-artists albums) don't seem to fit.

i also have an itch to pack the top 10 with keith jarrett and bill evans albums, but that would look ridiculous, and this was already difficult to make, as it is... :-/

go with your first instinct. there is nothing ridiculous about it.


by the way, i could actually use some Jarrett recs. The Koln Concert is a top 10 choice for me, but i'm also a newb who went straight for the most popular album first. and i'm a little unsure where to go next.

as far jarrett's '70s albums go? check out "Sun Bear" and "Bremen/Lausanne".

My list would currently look something like this (because this is a draft list I did months ago on the matter). I'd say some things may drop (I think Paranoid will surely be a victim), some may rise (esp. Cosmo's Factory) and some others may get on (including From Here to Eternity, Zombie, and John Prine). And then I still have to listen to and account for all the awesome current and incoming suggestions.

And I'll do some blurbs in the near future, Led!

2. King Crimson - Red
3. The Rolling Stones - Exile on Main Street
4. Marvin Gaye - What's Going On
5. Pink Floyd - Meddle

7. The Stooges - Raw Power
8. Stevie Wonder - Innervisions
9. Miles Davis - On the Corner
10. Sly and the Family Stone - There's a Riot Goin On

11. Led Zeppelin - IV
12. King Crimson - Starless and Bible Black
13. Michael Jackson - Off the Wall
14. Nick Drake - Bryter Layter
15. Ramones - Ramones
16. Iggy Pop - Lust for Life
17. Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here
18. Led Zeppelin - III
19. Neil Young - On the Beach
20. Iggy Pop - The Idiot
