Albums First Released in 1977
Punk challenged the music industry in 1977, while disco, reggae and electronic music reached wider audiences. Albums that help explain 1977 include Rumours by Fleetwood Mac, Aja by Steely Dan, Exodus by Bob Marley and the Wailers and Marquee Moon by Television.
The year was not defined by one movement. Punk stripped rock down, disco prioritised the dance floor, reggae travelled further internationally and records such as Aja and Low showed how much detail the studio could still add.

Our Pick of the Year: Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Rumours turned strained relationships inside Fleetwood Mac into a tightly sequenced pop-rock album. Dreams, Go Your Own Way, Don't Stop and The Chain give different writers and singers room without breaking the album's flow. Its songs remain familiar, but the detail in the arrangements is what keeps the record rewarding after repeated plays.
