If I Could Only Remember My Name
2.  If I Could Only Remember My Name by Crosby Stills Nash & Young
The list author says:
  "It's very CSNY of course, but more trippy than that. The vocal work on "Orleans" is exceptional. Rhino's 2CD set is a great remaster and there's a fantastic outtake too..."

3.  The Complete Reprise Recordings 1971-73 [International Release] by Crazy Horse
The list author says:

In My Own Time
4.  In My Own Time by Karen Dalton
The list author says:
  "One of the gems in the "Light In The Attic" catalogue - a US-only LP on Capitol Records, Dalton sounds like Janis Joplin gargling gravel meets a strangled version of Madeleine Peyroux - with tunes...."
£11.37
3.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (9 customer reviews)

Dando Shaft
5.  Dando Shaft by Dando Shaft
The list author says:
  "An obscure folk-rock LP on RCA's failed prog label Neon, this 2003 Akarma remaster comes in a 5" hard-card repro sleeve. Sorta Pentangle but quirkier. Nice songs. See detailed review..."

Nod Is As Good As a Wink to a Bl
7.  Nod Is As Good As a Wink to a Bl by Faces
The list author says:
  "Their 3rd and best album from November 1971 on Warner Brothers. This Japan 2010 remaster makes me weak at the knees. I love this album beyond reason. Check out the beautiful Ronnie Lane on "Debris""
£49.76

Living Game
8.  Living Game by Mick Greenwood
The list author says:
  "I bought this as a teenager in Dublin and have loved it ever since. An obscure album originally on MCA given a stunning remaster. Features members of Fotheringay. See detailed review..."

Stormcock
9.  Stormcock by Roy Harper
The list author says:

£9.99
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (12 customer reviews)

Everything Is Everything
10.  Everything Is Everything by Donny Hathaway
The list author says:
  "The sublime Donny Hathaway. There's a keyboard break about 1:50 into the opening track "Voices Inside (Everything Is Everything)" - it sends me. It also has the stunning social-funk of "The Ghetto"."
£5.47   Used & New from: £2.70
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions
11.  The London Howlin' Wolf Sessions by Howlin' Wolf
The list author says:
  "Still possessed of his awesome voice and mojo, the all-star line-up rose to it on this 1971 Chess LP classic. Beautiful Erick Labson remaster. A hidden gem in the DE series of double CDs."
£9.99   Used & New from: £7.78
4.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (5 customer reviews)

Original Album Classics
12.  Original Album Classics by The Isley Brothers
The list author says:

£14.57   Used & New from: £10.73
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)

Rosemary Lane
13.  Rosemary Lane by Bert Jansch
The list author says:

5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (8 customer reviews)

Alexis Korner: Expanded Edition/Remastered
14.  Alexis Korner: Expanded Edition/Remastered by Alexis Korner
The list author says:
  "Inbetween CCS albums, Korner dashed off this great album for Mickie Most's RAK Records. "Black Woman (The Wild Ox Moan)" is an acapella version of an old 1930s Vera Hall Ward song and is extraordinary"

Home Is in My Head (Remastered and Expanded)
15.  Home Is in My Head (Remastered and Expanded) by Jackie Lomax
The list author says:

Dave Mason & Cass Elliot
16.  Dave Mason & Cass Elliot by Dave Mason
The list author says:
  "Originally on Probe Records, this 2008 Revola remaster is awesome in its sound. A nice meeting of Traffic's songwriter with one the great Mamas & Papas voices. Very musical."
£12.00   Used & New from: £6.96
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Songs for Beginners: (CD+DVD)
17.  Songs for Beginners: (CD+DVD) by Graham Nash
The list author says:
  "All of their debut albums seemed to be dripping with songwriting magic - and Nash's solo debut was no different. The Rhino remaster is gorgeous and the DVD offers a life in photographs. See review."
£10.09   Used & New from: £8.40
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (12 customer reviews)

Here Comes Shuggie Otis / Freedom Flight
18.  Here Comes Shuggie Otis / Freedom Flight by Shuggie Otis
The list author says:
  "Raven of Australia put out this 2LPs on 1CD set in 2003. Both albums are stunning, but it's 1971's "Freedom Flight" that is the lost classic. The 11-minute title track is a fab trippy instrumental."
£17.28   Used & New from: £7.75
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

Reflection
19.  Reflection by Pentangle
The list author says:
  "Released on Transatlantic in 1971, this is another superb remaster by Castle. The album wasn't folk, but folkish - the lovely Jacqui McShee on vocals. "When I Get Home" is plaintive like John Martyn."
£5.77   Used & New from: £3.99
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)

Songs/Hey Love
20.  Songs/Hey Love by Rotary Connection
The list author says:
  "The 1971 LP "Hey, Love" was on Cadet in the USA and featured both Minnie Riperton and Sidney Barnes on vocals with Charles Stepney producing. "Hey, Love" & "I Am The Black Gold Of The Sun" are genius."
£12.65   Used & New from: £8.48

Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus
21.  Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus by Spirit
The list author says:
  "Spirit's 4th album turned up on Epic in the UK and it's a gem. Featuring Randy California & Jay Ferguson (later of Jo Jo Gunne) the album had many styles, great songs and it works as a cohesive whole."
£5.47   Used & New from: £3.92
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)

Time Will Be Your Doctor: Rare Recordings 1971-1972
22.  Time Will Be Your Doctor: Rare Recordings 1971-1972 by Tucky Buzzard
The list author says:
  "Contains "Tucky Buzzard" (1971 USA-only on Capitol), "Warm Slash" (1972 UK & USA LP on Capitol) and a further Euro LP. Although rocking, they were also funky like Spirit & Rare Earth. Try "Gu Gu Gu"."

Darkness Darkness
23.  Darkness Darkness by Phil Upchurch
The list author says:
  "A 2LP jazz-fusion funk-soul set on Blue Thumb Records (1971 USA, 1972 UK) which is now on this fabulous-sounding SHM-CD out of Japan from 2008. See detailed review..."

Loaded -Fully Loaded ed.-
24.  Loaded -Fully Loaded ed.- by Velvet Underground
The list author says:
  "September 1970 in the USA, but April 1971 in the UK on Atco. This 2CD set has a whole disc of outakes and superb remastered versions of "Sweet Jane" and "Rock & Roll". Very Lou Reed too."
£9.37   Used & New from: £4.02
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)

War
25.  War by War
The list author says:
  "April 1971 UK LP on Liberty - this 1992 Rhino Remaster has lovely sound. It's a great combo of rock meets soul. The instrumental "Vibeka" always brings customers to the counter enquiring "who's this?""
£14.99   Used & New from: £9.00
