Yup, me too. Literally changed the course of my life and I've never regretted a moment of it.
Although I would add Rocket To Russia and Leave Home.
Those albums and The Who's Quadrophenia made me, for better or worse, the person I am today.

One album released in 71 that didn't make that list is ' 'Rocking the Filmore' by Humble Pie, one of the greatest live albums ever.
Also in 71, Allman brothers band live at the Filmore is another great live recording.

Crikey! What a year for great albums. Those of us around then were blessed but perhaps didn't realise it at the time

Loads of decent albums from that year but Rattus Norvegicus - The Stranglers, gets my vote simply for it's raw power.
