Happy New Year! We’re feeling 2023 is going to be quite the year. Along with new releases we are anticipating, 2023 also marks some pretty significant anniversaries of many legendary albums. 1973 was one of the greatest years in rock ‘n’ roll history, and it blows our minds that the records released that year will be turning 50 in 2023. Here’s just ten albums that are hitting the big 5-0 this year so you understand our shock:

• Dark Side of the Moon – Pink Floyd (March 1st, 1973)

• Houses of the Holy – Led Zeppelin (March 28th, 1973)

• Aladdin Sane – David Bowie (April 20th, 1973)

• Queen – Queen (July 13th, 1973)

• Brothers and Sisters – The Allman Brothers Band (August 1973)

• Pronounced ‘Leh-‘nerd ‘Skin-‘nerd – Lynyrd Skynyrd (August 13th, 1973)
