Yeah it is impossible to list only 5, especially as it is ever-changing.


The 70's went through a lot of change- Would help to maybe list Top 5 or 10 from 1970-75, then 76-79, or even 1970-'74, then 1975-1979.
The early 70's still had prog-rock, art-rock, glam-rock, etc. The latter 70's had punk, arena rock, and start of new wave.

That album is a masterpiece and is on par with some of the Beatles' best work.
