C'mon... no one chose "Death Valley '69"
It's one of the most significant songs of that "era" for them. It changed them, musically. Not to mention it's one of the rare moments when there's a guest singer. It puts the finishing touch on probably their darkest, scariest, and forboding albums (I dare you to find one darker).
It's also a cool moment on the album. You have the first side a continuous piece of music (on the vinyl version), and the second side follows the same formula. But, right before the last song, it stops. and then...
(click, click, click, click) "AHHHHHHHHHHHH"
"Death Valley '69"
Don't get me wrong, the whole album is great, but THAT song...
wow.
