So I’m guessing you weren’t grooving to the tune Lovin’ You?

BTW I probably have at least 40 from the list on album or CD.

Good guess.

We probably have that many, but no Minnie Riperton or Betty Davis in our collection. YMMV.

NO record player and no albems.

[Steve_R]

The list in the first post is subjective, not based on popularity or sales. It says this:

These albums were chosen for their initial and lasting popularity and their influence and impact on rock music in general. Also considered is critical acclaim. The list includes rock and roll and related genres that were influential on rock music.

The list of the 100 top selling albums for the same year is here. It's a VERY different list.

[Bruze]

How about a list for REALLY OLD people? Like music from the late 1950s to around 1970?

Never mind, I can hear it all on You Tube, and often see them live.
