Their latest album, from 2012, is titled Tits 'n Ass, so I'm tempted to say no.

radar love was definitely the single of 1973. when that song came on in the disco everyone went down to the knees and whirled around with the hair. remember at the time boys & girls had long hair.

There is some nice psychedelic moments on Moontan, it's a pretty good LP.

yes fans were clearly the greta van fleet fans of their day

or possibly people voted _before_ hearing "tales from topographic oceans"

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

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.
