Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

Would do it for the music, but not the gear..here's a list

1972 was one of the last truly amazing years for releases in that great rock explosion that began to run its course around 1974. I was 17 and the number of now considered iconic recordings is lengthy. Here's a sample (add your own to flavor).

Bowie--Ziggy Stardust
Deep Purple ----Machine Head
Genesis---Foxtrot
Jethro Tull--Thick as a Brick
Mott the Hoople--All the Young Dudes
Rolling Stones---Exile
Lou Reed--Transformer
Todd Rundgren---Something/Anything
Steely Dan--Can't Buy a Thrill
Yes-Close to the Edge
Neil Young--Harvest
Rod Stewart--Never a Dull Moment
Wishbone Ash---Argus
Roxy Music--debut
T. Rex--The Slider
Mahavishnu Orchestra--Birds of Fire
Stevie Wonder--Talking Book
Stephen Stills---Mannasas
Randy Newman---Sail Away
Van Morrison--St. Dominique's Preview
Allman Bros--Eat a Peach
Grateful Dead--Europe '72
Al Green--Let's Stay Together
War--The World is a Ghetto
Miles Davis--On the Corner

Not too shabby....


(i've got personal faves like Family's Bandstand, but this wouldn't be a consensus pick.)
