I know that since you're not covering demos, for obvious reasons, but I've just been checking out some of Pentagram's, who never had an actual album till '85, early demos and singles and I think they deserve some kind of mention before you get to the 80's. They sounded fantastic even then.

The Batlord recently suggested that I put a 'best of' list to finish the decade, I'd already thought of this myself previously and therefore have quickly put together two lists of the best 12 albums from 1969 to 1979 to close the decade. The albums selected are only albums that actually made the Top 10 lists and no extras.
List 1: This is pretty much the objective list and the expected one. All these albums are there for their reputation, influence, impact and overall brilliance, and in my opinion offer the cream of the first decade of hard rock and heavy metal. It was hard enough to select 12 albums here without then trying to put them in some sort of order, so I've put them in a chronological order for a quick listening list. List 2: My own personal desert island selection from the bunch, these are albums that I personally love and can go nuts over, some are flawed but they pump where it really matters and all offer me something different. List 1 Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin II 1969 Black Sabbath Paranoid 1970 Black Sabbath Master of Reality 1971 Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin IV 1971 Deep Purple Machine Head 1972 Black Sabbath Sabbath Bloody Sabbath 1973 BOC Secret Treaties 1974 Aerosmith Rocks 1976 UFO Lights Out 1977 Judas Priest Stained Class 1978 Scorpions Lovedrive 1979 ACDC Highway to Hell 1979 List 2 Led Zeppelin Led Zeppelin I 1969 Sir Lord Baltimore Kingdom Come 1970 Trapeze Medusa 1970 Stray Suicide 1971 Flower Travellin Band Satori 1971 Hard Stuff Bulletproof 1972 Night Sun Mournin' 1972 Black Sabbath Vol.4 1972 BOC Tyranny and Mutation 1973 Alice Cooper Welcome to My Nightmare 1975 Scorpions Taken By Force 1978 Ace Frehley Ace Frehley 1978
