Welcome back to this special retrospective music-posting feature. The gimmick is simple — each week, you post your favorite 25 (or whatever) albums of a given year. We are now moving backwards until we run out of either albums or years.
Let’s give it up once again for yet another stellar year from the 70s. Next week we’ll recap our overall favorites from the decade, then after that we’ll begin moving through the 60s! Interesting times, probably. List 1970 favorites below:
