  1. I’ll be honest — I didn’t realize that the Bee Gees existed pre-disco. But here we have what was evidently their 6th studio album, with not a hint of disco to be found.
  2. I’m not entirely sure what this album is doing on the list. It’s in no way groundbreaking, it’s not particularly good, it wasn’t popular at the time. I’m unclear who this album is for. It’s not for me, I can say that.
  3. Really nice flocked album cover, though evidently the design of it caused an allergic reaction among the workers assembling it and it had to be scrapped. And that’s all I have to say about this album!

Next up: something called Pentangles!
