Terrific 70s chart. Would have been a clear 100 if it wasn't for the fact that I cannot get into Yes. Not yet. Ok that's a lie, I thought Fragile was interesting but I hated Close To The Edge. Maybe I should give their albums a few more listens. Its not always easy music but there's no denying they have talent. Personally I think Rick Wakeman is a genius piano player, I love his work on Bowie's Space Oddity and the Hunky Dory album.
Btw I really dig your top 10, well your top 20 is excellent. I have about 40% in common with you. Very cool chart.

What a terrific seventies chart! I love Songs in the Key of Life and London Calling, as well as a number of your less conventional choices. Pretty tough to argue with What's Going On in the #1 slot, as it's as important and relevant now as it was in 1971.

Led Zep 4 is on there - probably too low at 43
