Some fantastic albums so far, and some that I never heard of! Can't wait to listen to some new music. Glad we can talk about this!

Default Perfect Albums?
A few hot takes:

1) A Farewell to Kings- Rush
2) Aja- Steely Dan ( There are other Dan fans I see!)
3) Electric Ladyland- Jimi Hendrix Experience

As a fellow Rush fan, I'd love to hear your reasoning for choosing AFTK over all the other '76-'81 records.

To BobbyStrawberry aka Matthew- I chose AFTK because too many people choose Moving Pictures or 2112. AFTK contains Xanadu, which is musical perfection, so I named it. ALL Rush is great, the list could simply be Rush- this isn't an all Rush forum though

2112 is my favorite RUSH album, classic.

Beatles-Abbey Road
Aretha Franklin-Delta meets Detroit
Ramones-greatest hits
AC/DC- Powerage
Montrose-self titled
Dave Brubeck-Take Five
Tom Petty & the heartbreakers-self titled
Led Zepplin 1
Patsy Cline-greatest hits
Green Day- American Idiot
Pink Floyd-WYWH

There's a few off the top of my head. I love music.

I'd like to add 3 more albums to my previous selections. The first album is Deep Purple's "Machine Head". The second is a 2 album set from Lynyrd Skynyrd, "One More from the Road". Lastly the self titled release from "Blind Faith".

There's been some great albums mentioned in this thread, I just thought I'd add a few more.

My personal favorite is Hemispheres, but anything from that era is a great add to this list IMO.

Rush - Moving Pictures
Rush- Permanent Waves

Give a listen to Natural Science on Permanent Waves. It got no airplay on the radio but is a great song

If you have not figured it out yet, Rush is my favorite group. RIP Neil Peart.

Also, I agree with Boston’s debut Album.

Thanks

Duane

Great call on Jesus Christ Superstar, must have listened to that Full Album at least 200-300 times (I listen to a shit ton of full albums) in the past 10 years alone. Tremendous intro!!!! Total jam session......and Love how it ends to...great dramatic effect.

I believe that's Ian Gillian of Deep Purple as JC

I'm going with "Rattle & Hum" by U2.

Covers of the Beatles and Bob Dylan. Dylan on another track. BB King showing off the pipes. A taste of Hendrix. A homage to Martin Luther King Jr.

A mixed studio/live album, with a mix of musical styles and voices, that just "works".

Oh, and it's worth noting that coming off the success of Joshua Tree, the album DIDN'T include what was just about the biggest son on the planet "With or Without You".

Ah, good fun.

Doubtful most have heard of Son Volt, but their debut album Trace is a masterpiece.

This album took me a little time to warm up to.
But yes, it is VERY good!

Nice call...

One of my favorite albums of all-time for sure. As I was emerging out of my punk only phase, I met Uncle Tupelo which brought me to Son Volt that then brought me to Wilco which opened up further doors musically. Damn I love that album. Was playing "Tear Stained Eye" on my guitar last week.

I really do have a taste for all kinds of music, but one that is kind of out of the genres described here is Jagged Little Pill. My daughter and I really both enjoy it and it is solid front to back. I'm on the doormat of 60 and she's 22, but we both find it interesting and relatable. My playlist ranges from John Prine to Ozzy to 2Pac to P!nk.

Every Beatles Album. I never skip a song on any of them. Not many albums ,if any, were very good before 1964. How many singles do you have that you actually listened to the other side ? Only on The Beatles ( mostly double sided hits.. My dial is glued to Sirius Channel 18

Picture this: Meadowlands early 90s. A hot summer day. Faith No More goes on at like 3PM opening up for Metallica and Guns n Roses. Of the three bands that day, Faith No More was the tightest.

Have you heard the alternate takes? They're fascinating. The alternate take of Shelter From the Storm was used in the film Jerry Maguire.
My brother, girlfriend and I listed to the album endlessly when it was released. It was a revelation, stunning.
