Oh yeah, I think Young has some clusters of great to perfect albums after that like Dylan, and Zuma is a banger, but I'm always shocked by how consistent that initial stretch was

I think Neil Young must have pulled off the 5 in a row in the 70s. Everybody Knows This is Nowhere to Tonight's the Night? Sounds about right but I may be forgetting some albums

nah he really went to all of those places
