The lads fired up the time machine for the latest episode in their quest to find the greatest rock album of all time, journeying back to the farthest limits of the Enter Sadmen Podverse.
1970 is the arbitrary stepping off point for the Hard Rock and Heavy Metal Hall of Fame, so it was no surprise when the Tico Torres Tombola of Topics and Themes finally cranked it out as the focus of episode 37.
The boys went off in search of musical riches and reconvened on WhatsApp a week before the show was recorded to share their discoveries.
Mark, it turned out, went more or less mainstream, breaking the elasticity of time to offer up Climbing!, the debut album from Mountain (if you discount the Leslie West solo album Mountain, which is now largely viewed as the spiritual start of Mountain's recording career).
Steve went deep into the unknown and unearthed a then much admired but long since forgotten self-titled debut from US prog rockers Bloodrock.
And Richard emerged clutching the better-known and eponymously-titled calling card from Lucifer's Friend, featuring future Uriah Heep vocalist John Lawton, the only Brit in an otherwise all-German line-up.
