Re: Album of 1970 (II) - 1304 to VOTE
Oh the Cure will win it. I don't like the Cure but even I'd give Seventeen Seconds a listen.
If we're reserving, I'll go for Gary Numan "Telekon".

Seventeen Seconds is a standout album imo. It has that sombre tone, but is minimalist and highly innovative. It's the only Cure album I regularly come back to.

Thanks 64.
I didn’t expect that to win and tbh I prefer the follow up, Paranoid……..but both very good albums and Sabbath are one of my favourite bands. Although it all went a bit downhill after Sabotage, but H&H and MR with RJD are good. H&H a potential 1980 nomination
Re: Album of 1970 (II) - 1304 to VOTE
'Sabbath Bloody Sabbath' is my favourite BS album. Paranoid one of my fave singles of the 70sMuppet the Cat wrote: ↑Mon Jan 24, 2022 6:56 pm Thanks 64.
