    I'll go with Rock and Roll High School. I think Phil Spector (batsh!t crazy as he may be) as a perfect producer for End of the Century.

    Bowie and Pink Floyd.

    I’ve been listening to a ton of classic rock lately. I miss the stories in music.

    They were really freaking amazing and you have to imagine what that would have sounded like with a better studio and better production. I've heard their vinyl, and it's not just a youtube problem.

    The answer is all.

    My early adult years were in the 1990s which had some damn fine rock but nothing tops the 1970s for musical innovation.

    Nilsson would be more successful today as a singer-songwriter & producer in the mold of Pharrell Williams.
