from my perspective.......it's a tossup between.....
The VU & Nico / Are You Experienced / The Doors.........and I'd probably say The VU & Nico is the most important of the 3. All 3 are from 1967 coincidentally.

A great list! Out of these I would say My Aim Is True, The Clash, The Band and Marquee Moon are the strongest. I'll have a look at my collection when I come home to see if anything is missing on this list.....
