I thought about voting for the Can but decided it would get plenty of votes without me, so I voted for Funkadelic instead.

POLLing and turning, how can I sleep?: The Roxy Music & Bryan Ferry Results Thread

somewhere else I think I read that it was also a single take, as well as a first take?

I have a 1969 list ready to poll and for everyone to tell me what's missing.

Atem and Head Hunters deserved better.

Headhunters is magnificent but earthbound; Sextant is transcendent.

Checking for Here Come the Warm Jets release date, I ended up on this page which discusses the discrepancy between the vinyl and label information, and concludes it was because of the oil crisis: https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/brian-eno-here-come-the-warm-jets-what-was-the-original-release-date.755536/. So, recorded in September, scheduled for November and that's what the first UK pressing says, but apparently no-one heard it before early 1974.
