Can - Future Days (1971)

ZZ Top - Tres Hombres (1973)

Lynyrd Skynyrd - (pronounced 'leh-'nérd 'skin-'nérd) (1973)

Good ol' southern-fried rock... I'm assuming. It is a Lynyrd Skynyrd album, although it is their first, so who knows. Maybe they were a different band in 1973? Ah, who am I kiddin'?

Lou Reed - Berlin (1973)

I'm of two minds on what I want to do next. On the one hand I've developed a pretty strong opinion of Lou Reed, mostly informed by others and partly based on having heard one of "his" albums. With that in mind I almost feel as though I should give Lou Reed and his ardent followers the best chance at proving this music is as good as they all claim it is. That would lead me to review the albums in chronological order, which would give me a chance to settle in and evolve along Lou Reed's musical path. That would mean the next album I should hear is The Velvet Underground's White Light/White Heat.

The Isley Brothers - 3 + 3 (1973)

I suppose it's just as racist as assuming Terrence Trent D'arby's music was hip-hop/rap to assume that The Isley Brothers, who released the above album in 1973, will be playing funk. Maybe I'm just really hopeful.

Roxy Music - Roxy Music (1972)

I think I've burned myself out over this project. My recent reviews have been much longer than my early reviews and I find myself not wanting to listen to new music. It's become a chore to come up with paragraphs to write about music I don't really find appealing. It's been a while since I've heard something on the list I hadn't heard before and really wanted to hear again.

Faust - Faust IV (1973)
