Ah, that's definitely my favourite era - so much psychedelia, prog, jazz, classic rock and good music in general in that period. But I'm not sure what my favourite year of music is overall... it might not even be from that era.

There is no best year for music. They all usually coincide with the time that you truly discovered music. 1967 was good though!:

1972:

Wishbone Ash - Argus
Eagles - S/T
Genesis - Foxtrot
Led Zeppelin - Houses of the Holy
Wishbone Ash - Pilgrimage
Flower Travellin' Band - Satori
Jethro Tull - Thick As A Brick

And loads of obscure stuff.

Foxtrot FTW.

Comus · 02-05-2008, 06:30 PM

Seriously, probably my favourite Genesis album, although it's a huge toss up between it and Selling England By The Pound.

jackhammer · 02-05-2008, 06:32 PM

I love FOXTROT. My favourite by a country mile.

Comus · 02-05-2008, 06:34 PM

Supper's Ready is a masterpiece of prog, probably only dwarfed by King Crimson's Lizard.

I'm quite partial to Barclay James Harvest's Summer Soldier myself. My King Crimson knowledge is very limited.
