Lists, lists, lists. Some of you that frequent Pitchfork probably already saw today's first installment of their top 100 albums of the 70s. And I'm sure it will have many inspired choices to go along with the curious and mundane selections that inevitably populate their lists. But who cares about what Pitchfork thinks? Bunch of arrogant knownothing twentysomethings! Let's do our own!

Pick your favorite 10 albums from the 70s. Put them in order, 1 to 10. Anything goes. We'll apply a weighting to the list, ten points for your number 1 and one point for your number 10. That way if we get enough responses, say 25 or so, and tally all the results, we're less likely to award a less than perfect album the top spot just because a few people had it somewhere on their list (such as the questionable choice of Stone Roses for the top spot on the Guardian Top 100 British list).

All suggestions concerning guidelines encouraged and welcome. It will probably have a lot of similarities to our Rave Recs Essential Albums list of the past, but we didn't apply a weighting system to that one.
