Paul Simon's Songbook. Basically Simon & Garfunkel without Art. 
...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined
to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology...

Bruce Springsteen is missing Confused

Great poll, Paul! Nice to see a discussion of American musicians.

From the list - Todd. Others, Frank Zappa, Adrian Belew, and Mike Keneally.

The Boss is included now, in place of George Benson at the top of the poll. Thumbs Up

Thanks Will. It's good to see you back on the PA forums again, and you're not grumpy at all. Wink

This should be interesting: there are a few artists here that I didn't even know had long solo careers! (That is, I assume they have long solo careers as this appears to be one of your "first," "second," "third" album series polls.)

Hard to vote over Stephen Stills' debut solo, but Runt is just to fun, happy, and memorable.

Sadly, the promisingly long careers of Tim Buckley, Jim Croce & Harry Chapin were all foreshortened due to early deaths at the ages of 28, 30 & 36 respectively.  Confused

Everybody Knows Neil Young, so by popular demand, I've added him to the poll in place of Van Dyke Parks. Let's hope he can Harvest a few votes before Time Fades Away. Smile

No Gordon Lightfoot or Bruce Cockburn??

I went for Crosby's album.

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

That Crosby album is really special and unique. Honorable mention to Dylan’s debut, which is often overlooked but very good.

I'm not familiar with the music of Bruce Cockburn. Embarrassed

I could add Gordon Lightwood to the poll, but who do you suggest I delete from the poll to make room for him?

I would've voted for David Crosby's excellent debut too if Stephen Stills hadn't also been in the poll. Wink

It's so long ago now since I put these polls together, I've no idea why I forget to include Billy Joel. That's Honesty for you. Embarrassed

A late entry for Billy Joel, in place of Randy Newman, who no one's ever voted for in this series of polls. Smile
