    10. One Size Fits All by Frank Zappa & The Mothers of Invention

    Released when bands like Yes and Rush were kings, One Size Fits All is perhaps the closest to straight prog rock Zappa ever got during his instrumental jazz fusion period. Despite…

    Of all these albums, there are only two I hadn’t heard. Overall, this was an A+ List for sure. Definitely worth the wait, Sam. I even agree with the honorable mentions, though considering my musical upbringing, Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath would’ve been number one and two, respectively.*  Thanks again. :)


    *if my family ever discovered my list with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath not on it, all hell would break loose.

    Yeah I think most people would consider those two being relegated to honorable mentions blasphemous. It is no secret that I like both bands (especially Sabbath), but I think both of their 1975 releases to be pretty sub par.

    EDIT: And no thanks are necessary. I genuinely enjoyed making it, probably more than you enjoyed reading it.
