Yo - I looked at 1971 and it was just too ridiculous in terms of possible great albums I skipped it in favor of 2001.
I am still not getting the "black rock" as 100% rock...yes it has heavy guitars and some riffs, but there is nothing on that album as rock as "Super Stupid"..the bar kays is still a funk LP before it is a rock LP...
Aw, dude, that is such a copout ('specially from someone like you who knows his stuff)! I don't think '71 would be any more ridiculous than any other year! Although any 12-month period that gave us both You're So Beautiful and Teenage Head was definitely
Maggot Brain isnt 100% rock either.
Black Rock had "how sweet it would be"
Maggot Brain had "can you get to that"
both albums are tied one for one as far as having a conventional soul song bustin' up an otherwise fuzzed-out funk-rock set
any other '71 picks?

I went a grabbed a copy outta the bins(as I hadnt listened to it in awhile and I wanted to make sure I wasnt mistakin), and I still dont hear much heavy rock that can compare to Maggot Brain on Black Rock..."Baby I Love You" has a pretty cool heavy riff..but besides that...just soul tracks..."Street Walker" from "Gotta Groove" is a lot heavier than anything on Black Rock.
Is this one really that good? I think I've seen it mentioned here on the Strut a few times, but I've never yet had the chance to hear it...

Compare 1971 with 2001. All years are definitely NOT equal.
71 has:
Blue
What's Going On
Sticky Fingers
Tapestry
There's a Riot Going On
Let's Stay Together
Maggot Brain
Just As I Am
Revolution of the Mind
Electric Warrior
Imagine
Hell, even a cornball ass album like "American Pie" would sooner get a spin from me then most of what came out in 2001.
asked and answered in the same year!
how much shit am i about to get for STILL not owning "what's going on" (even though i must admit its getting harder and harder to find...)

Hmmm, the sight of Marvin Gaye close-up in the rain with his coat collar turned up is still a familiar sight to me...
