100 Lost Rock Albums From The 1970s edition by Matthew Ingram Arts Photography eBooks
As a book, it reads a lot like a magazine article, which isn't a bad thing since that was the original intention of this list.Although the author's socio-political assertions are best taken with a grain of salt, it's a very interesting collection ranging from underrated releases by well known artists to the utterly obscure.
Well worth a couple of dollars for something to dip into when you're at a loose end.

100 Lost Rock Albums From The 1970s edition by Matthew Ingram Arts Photography eBooks Reviews
Some great discoveries here, so well worth the few pounds spent. If you're into seventies' eclecticism, from countryrock to punk (and possibly back again), this is an absolute delight.
100 lost albums? Gentle Giant Octopus, Focus Hamburger Concerto, Supertramp Even in The Quietest Moments. Lost? In 14 chapters, each covering a genre in rock the author show us a picture of covers (his own?) of albums he perceive lost. But one wonder, lost for whom? This is a very idiosyncratic listing of some rare, some not at all rare albums from the 70s. The taste of the arbiter (author) is the guiding principle for rating the discs. And that taste can be discussed may I confess. All in all a very personal, but sometimes also both uneducated AND informed, evaluating of some more or less interesting albums from 40 years ago.
If you're a backstory geek, this is for you.
...while I'm fanatical about the early to mid 70's stuff (any and all), in my opinion the late 70's music was a lot of hit or miss. Still enjoyed the book...
A steal at twice the price, the danger with this book is that you will be compelled to search out so many of the albums and tangents within. An easy book to dip in and out of (and probably best read that way) the writing is informative and top quality, the style is easy and this humble tome should be required reading for anyone with open ears and an eye on past glories (both known and hidden).
A lot of cool things I never heard before. Recommended!
Mr Ingram writes with subtlety and humour. He doesn't take himself too seriously, and doesn't always conform to Rock Critic orthodoxy in his opinions. One quirk is that there are a small number of records listed that the author doesn't actually recommend. Simply being a "lost" album doesn't automatically qualify it as good. Refreshing. I've got quite a few expensive drink coasters bought on the assurance that some obscure effort was a work of genius, and instead turned out to be obscure for a very good reason.
I've been a music tragic since I was 8 or 9. Nearly 50 years later, I think I've got a reasonably in depth knowledge of pop music culture. I was well pleased to find some albums listed (indeed some artists) I've never heard of.
The title of the book sets out its limited scope. There's not much point picking holes in Mr Ingram's selections when he's clearly forewarning us that there's only room for 100, and only from the '70s.
Warning! This could get expensive if you decide to fill in your record collection with some missing recommendations.
As a book, it reads a lot like a magazine article, which isn't a bad thing since that was the original intention of this list.
