can people please refer to the spreadsheet before nominating

the blow up was recorded in '78 so it's fair game

xps

Does this count? Much of it's basically Stones + Springsteen territory:

Patti Smith Group - Easter

xpost
Did I nominate something that was on there already? I tried to check before each nom.

John McLaughlin - Devotion

thx for the spreadsheet ag!

Brian Eno - Here Come the Warm Jets

Not sure I'd support any other Eno albums but this one's a noisy rock album imo. Fripp's solo on "Baby's on Fire" alone should seal it.

Radio Ethiopia is the Patti Smith album that fits for this poll imo so -
Patti Smith - Radio Ethiopia

EIII please check email

And with thanks to mr balls for the reminder -
The Runaways - self-titled

The Tony Williams Lifetime - Turn It Over

The Scream is on that spreadsheet twice.

Pretty Things - Parachute

I wasn't sure if the Rallizes album counted or not! \m/

The Dictators - Go Girl Crazy

Brian Eno - Here Come the Warm Jets

Not sure I'd support any other Eno albums but this one's a noisy rock album imo. Fripp's solo on "Baby's on Fire" alone should seal it.

I wanted to nom this and Taking Tiger Mountain but the Tosser-erateri scared me off. It's all gotta be be fucking rock music and you are a dick to suggest anything else :(

AG : devo is in the spreadsheet twice for same album, are we not men.

also, cant believe only one bowie album has been nom'd so far.

or, is the whole point of this to highlight albums that dont get the love they deserve ?

but the Tosser-erateri scared me off. It's all gotta be be fucking rock music and you are a dick to suggest anything else :(

maybe because, like the 80s poll , its a rock poll

Amon Düül II - Wolf City
Ramones - Road to Ruin
Pink Fairies - Neverneverland

thought about eno, decided i wouldn't nominate but would be happy if someone else did

could a mod please change thread title to Nominations for a 70s ROCK Albums Poll

we can dump the rolling stone part.

fwiw would love if some ilxor started a 70s hippie folk & singer songwriter poll. walking dogs just now thought that a 70s tracks poll of artists that belong nowhere near this poll but have a couple of tracks that totally would fit eg 'all the girls love alice' by elton john, maybe doesn't have to be a poll but just a thread, but on that basis those first two eno albums would have like at least 60% of their tracks on there so they totally qualify i think, at least as much as siren for sure

maybe because, like the 80s poll , its a rock poll

The weakness is that you widen or contract your claws on what is 'rock' when it suits you. Need more wider minds.

Sorry that sounds like a sack of shit! Not had a cigarette in 4 days and am going insane but still mean it!
