My 5 preferences in no certain order...
1.Ike Turners Kings Of Rhythm/ I’m Tore Up (1976)...17 smoking tracks from the 1950s hardest rocking cat & his crack shot band, best described by the label it’s on Red Lightning,not for the faint hearted
Pick to click: Sad As A Man Can Be
2.Miles Davis / Agharta (1975)...with Peter Cosey who was as under appreciated as Hendrix was revered, sadly this was as close as we would ever get to a Miles & Hendrix collaboration
3.Television/ Marquee Moon (1977)...during the 70s this record & Derek & Dominos / Layla were 2 of my preferred guitar albums
4.MC5 / High Time (1971)...I have always said if more kids had listened to this as much as LZ & Pink Floyd the 1970s would have been much different indeed...
The mighty 5’s swan song & Kramer & Smith shine at every turn
#5.The Yardbirds / Shapes Of Things (1977) ...A 2 record comp with licks from Clapton & Beck so dangerous you could cut yourself on them.More than essential
