1972

The year 1972 is again pretty awesome year in music. Most of the albums this year can be categorised in either glam-rock or folk genres. However, there's also some funk, psychedelia and pop-rock in there. Again, the vintage factor is quite high. It's weird to realise, how in 1972, almost all the best albums are considered mainstream, wheres today, very few mainstream albums are at all listenable. I guess this is due to the way record companies work these days. But back to 1972. This year did not wow me as much as the years around it, but that's no reason to say that this year wouldn't be as good. When I get closer to the 1960's I find that most of the albums I consider to be core albums of the 70's are actually really early 70's albums. This era has been one of the most influential eras in popular music since then.
