My #1 (not listed here) would be Judee Sill's s/t debut. #2 might be "Sticky Fingers" (also not here), or something else I'm forgetting. Of the ones shown here, I'd probably vote for "IV".

oh well, if we're going to go off-list, please consider Sir Douglas Quinter's The Return of Doug Saldana, times Miles Davis's Jack Johnson and Live-Evil. So many other albums I thought were 1971 are actually '70 and '72.

if it were here, I'd go for Live-Evil instantly.

1971 is one of the all-time great years but most of my favourites aren't here so Crosby it is.
― Deafening silence (DL), Wednesday, 13 February 2013 10:21 (eleven years ago) link
voted Stormcock cos it's the best 1971 alb w/ jimmy page on it
― Ward Fowler, Wednesday, 13 February 2013 11:00 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah, I would have voted for Maggot Brain if it was on the list.
Uh and "There's a Riot Going On"? Though it's not rock music so doesn't count obviously.

Yeah Riot is probably my favorite album not on here

I'd think he'd be into Flower Travellin' Band's Satori, but he probably hasn't updated that list in years. Master Of MFin' Reality, must not be his bag.
― Fastnbulbous, Thursday, 14 February 2013 20:57 (eleven years ago) link
Both are further down; Satori is 25

Master is 48
Maybe I will repost the entire list the next time I'm not on my phone

The Bruce Palmer album is filled with lotsa late-nite bongo jams. You can practically smell the incense. And it's got Rick James!
― InternationalWaters, Sunday, 17 February 2013 14:49 (eleven years ago) link
Yeah Master of Reality would be my #1 (xposts).

Missed this poll somehow -- Tago Mago would have gotten another vote.

I can't get that excited about Roy Harper's output in sum but he bottled the lightning on that one

wd totally love it if KM played a song that sounded like ^that btw

I'm a pretty big Beefheart fan, but "Mirror Man" is like kryptonite to my ears.
― o. nate, Wednesday, 20 February 2013 16:02 (eleven years ago) link
Waht? Album or song?
― harvester of lols (Drugs A. Money), Wednesday, 20 February 2013 17:24 (eleven years ago) link
The album. It just sounds like half-assed jamming to me. Give me the well-rehearsed, cleanly-recorded Magic Band of "Trout Mask" over this any day.

tried this?The Mirror Man Sessions
In 1999, Buddha Records (which had renamed itself to correct the earlier misspelling, 'Buddah') reissued the album under the title The Mirror Man Sessions, which was released with a newly expanded track list and a 12-page booklet explaining the history of the recordings. The additional tracks included on this release are also taken from the abandoned Brown Wrapper sessions, and thus yield a track listing which is somewhat closer to the original concept. Other tracks from these sessions are included as bonus material on Buddha's 1999 issue of Safe as Milk.No. Title Length 1. "Tarotplane" 19:082. "25th Century Quaker" 9:503. "Mirror Man" 15:464. "Kandy Korn" 8:065. "Trust Us" (Take 6) 7:146. "Safe as Milk" (Take 12) 5:007. "Beatle Bones n' Smokin' Stones" 3:118. "Moody Liz" (Take 8) 4:329. "Gimme Dat Harp Boy" 3:32

^that and Shiny Beast were my gateways into Beefheart. I still think of those sessions as basically the 2nd Beefheart album (ie the missing link between Safe as Milk and TMR)
"Kandy Korn" is probably in my top 3 songs from Van Vliet
