Our annual ritual of hitting The Big 5-0 for albums continues, focused on 1974!

This episode starts with a grunge.com article about albums released in ’74, and turning 50, but The Imbalanced Boys realized there was much more to 1974 than the writer covered. How can you fail to include Rock n’ Roll Animal by Lou Reed, as an example. So, Markus and Ray dive into that rabbit hole in the second half of this week’s podcast.

Starting with Joni Mitchell‘s Court And Spark, and rolling through the year, and capping things with a special release by a RRHOF group, who changed the sonic landscape that year! Incredible releases from Steely Dan, Rush, Frank Zappa, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Stevie Wonder and many more. A few artists (David Bowie, Kiss and Queen chief among them) had two releases in ’74!

So kick back in your bell bottoms and your favorite throwback bright vertical striped shirt, fire up the bong, and let’s hop into the Imbalanced Time Machine: Set to 1974!
