Yeah, a pretty anecdotal list. Good thing it wasn't rated or I doubt I
would've spent as much time as I did on it.

The Serpent Power took me by surprise also. Never heard of them before. That
sent me off to bittorrent where I found myself alone except for one other
person looking for the lp. No luck there at all, so thanks for the link.

It's nice that they remembered Moby Grape. But, the ultimate boo-boo for me
was the absence of Traffic's Mr. Fantasy LP. That was a big one, and one I
still listen to on occasion.

Agreed. Traffic was influential, hence essential, even in retrospect.

As mentioned, the list contains too many redundancies (eg. Between the
Buttons/Flowers, Smiley Smile/Wild Honey, etc.) out of which one could
have been dropped to include any number of the following, if...
