As it currently stands, the poll results seem pretty accurate for how I’d think these albums deserve to be valued.

Unsurprisingly, I chose the two most popular ones. Nilsson made better albums after this, I hardly even remember the Butterfield record (though I own it), I admire more than love the Parks, and I like about half of that Donovan LP (thanks Charlie O, for the mono version!).

I love 'Song Cycle.' Don't think I've heard any of the other albums on this list all the way through, though.
Where would rock 'n' roll be without feedback?
