I have indeed heard every single album you listed at least once, despite being 5 years old at the time

Especially Floyd, Zep, Yes x 2, Doors, and Tapestry.

I didn't say 1991 was THE BEST, I'm just saying it was very notably great ... I don't know there's a BETTER one, IOW. There's some equals though
