It's hard to believe you don't like "At Fillmore East" from the Allman Brothers Band for 1971.
If you haven't heard it, I highly recommend it.
I don't dislike it at all, it was just one of those albums that was hard to fit in. There are plenty of albums I wanted to include on the lists but just couldn't make room for. And at times I wanted to extend the lists out to twenty or more, since some years were just too good (well, I guess I kinda did for 1980).
