"Dead Babies," Alice Cooper. One of the songs that earned them the title/epithet "shock rock," and one of Dennis Dunaway's great bass lines. Nice live footage here.

"Whipping Post," Allman Brothers Band, Live at Fillmore East generally regarded as one of the greatest live albums of all time. This video evidence is a treasure.

"It's Too Late," Carole King. You could not avoid this song or this album even if you wanted to--and you didn't. Only one of the big ones from 1971.

"Changes," David Bowie, a monumental song, presaging the artist's entire career. TIL Rick Wakeman played the piano on this.

"Your Flag Decal Won't Get You Into Heaven Anymore," John Prine (R.i.P.). Another gem from 1971. (Poor babies, left behind by the rapture--evidently!)

"I Just Want to Celebrate," Rare Earth. I think I'm getting near 20 from '71, and still haven't touched on the majors.

"Mr. Big Stuff," Jean Knight. So much great stuff in 1971 surely raised the bar for the good stuff. (Also #DavidsMonthOfMusic "big" in the title!)

Originally, the entire band was "Alice Cooper." Gradually, frontman Vince Furnier took on the character and the name. Their second great 1971 album was "Killer," which included this rocker.

The original Alice Cooper band released two (2) albums in 1971. "Love It to Death" was really their breakthrough with "I'm 18" and other great songs like this one.

"Legend in Your Own Time," Carly Simon. She was a breath of fresh air, a revelation, a strong, smart, independent woman telling her truth. She still resonates today, 54 years later.

"Day After Day," Badfinger. People in '71 thought they might be the Beatles performing under a pseudonym. Understandable, with George Harrison's slide guitar and that McCartneyesque vocal!
