Artist: BOB DYLAN
Album: Blood On The Tracks
His fifteenth and one of his most
memorable LPs.
All Music: “This is hardly nostalgia, this is the sound of an artist returning to his strengths, what feels most familiar, as he accepts a traumatic situation, namely the breakdown of his marriage. This is an album alternately bitter, sorrowful, regretful, and peaceful, easily the closest he ever came to wearing his emotions on his sleeve.”

Band: FLEETWOOD MAC
Album: Fleetwood Mac
Their 10th.
Pitchfork said: “Though far from their debut, the band’s 1975 self-titled album felt like a debut: a pop-rock statement and the unexpected intersection of two parallel spheres that offered something genuinely new.”

Artist: NEIL YOUNG
Album: Tonight’s The Night
His sixth LP.
The record was dedicated to Danny Whitten, guitarist of Crazy Horse,
who wrote the song ‘I Don’t Want To Talk About It’ made famous by Rod
Stewart.
Rolling Stone wrote: “Tonight’s the Night finds Neil Young on his knees at the top of the heap, struggling to get back to his feet… Crying over the death of his real and imagined friends, Neil Young seems at once heroic and mock heroic, brave and absurd. Like the best of both, he leaves us as he found us, ravaged but rocking.”

Artist: PATTI SMITH
Album: Horses
Her stunning debut.
Rolling Stone wrote: “Patti Smith’s debut album was a declaration of committed mutiny,
a statement of faith in the transfigurative powers of rock & roll. Horses made her the queen
of punk before it even really existed, but Smith cared more for the poetry in rock.”

Band: PINK FLOYD
Album: Wish You Were Here
9th longplayer, dedicated to the late
flamboyant co-founder Syd Barrett.
The Village Voice wrote: “The music is not only simple and attractive, with the synthesizer used mostly for texture and the guitar breaks for comment, but it actually achieves some of
he symphonic dignity (and cross-referencing) that The Dark Side of the Moon simulated so ponderously.”

Album: Young Americans

Rolling Stone: “The music works best when Bowie combines his renewed interest in soul
with his knowledge of English pop, rather than opting entirely for one or the other.”
