Perusing Rolling Stone's The 40 Essential Albums of 1967 it's hard to fathom a more satisfying year in rock ' 'n' roll history. Fans were treated to everything from mind-blowing guitar rock (Hendrix) and sublime soul (Aretha) to strangely beautiful psychedelia (Jefferson Airplane) and nascent country-rock (Dylan, The Byrds). Oh, yeah, and The Beatles put out a pretty good record that year, too.

Because we love lists and creating controversy, Senior Editor Eric Snider and I have submitted our own Top 10s for '67, based as much on historical impact as on what we actually find ourselves listening to in 2007.

Snider's Top 10

1. Jimi Hendrix: Are You Experienced

2. The Beatles: Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band

3. Jimi Hendrix: Axis: Bold as Love

4. Aretha Franklin: I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You

5. Cream: Disraeli Gears

6. The Doors: Strange Days

7. The Byrds: Younger Than Yesterday

8. Beach Boys: Wild Honey

9. Moby Grape: Moby Grape

10. Otis Redding & Carla Thomas: King & Queen

AND TWO THAT DIDN’T MAKE THE ROLLING STONE LIST, BUT DEFINITELY SHOULD HAVE:

The Young Rascals: Groovin’

The Lovin’ Spoonful: The Best of the Lovin’ Spoonful

Tatangelo's Top 10

1. Jimi Hendrix Experience: Are You Experienced

2. Velvet Underground: Velevet Underground & Nico

3. Aretha Franklin: I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You

4. The Beatles: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

5. Cream: Disraeli Gears

6. The Byrds: Younger Than Yesterday

7. Jefferson Airplane: Surrealistic Pillow

8. The Rolling Stones: Between the Buttons

9. Bob Dylan: John Wesley Harding

10. Moby Grape: Moby Grape

The way of Earth is enlightening. I am one with the Earth. The Earth and myself are one mind. Not I but we - may it be fulfilled! May my life be the sacred performance of the art of universal unification. May Earth be realized as a work of art. pandora pandora schmuck pandora
