Suereal has a list I could work with. Fabulous to see someone remembering the genious of Harry Chapin. -- And I would throw the late Jim Croce's "Photographs and Memories" in that category, too.

I think I would have to remove Jackson Browne and Willie Nelson though. I like both albums but would probably replace them with

Janis Joplin - Pearl

Crosby Stills and Nash - Deja Vu

Of course Carol King's "Tapestry" has been mentioned.

A few others that I wore out Pat Benatar's "In The Heat of the Night." Kansas "Dust in the Wind". Oh sheesh, lots and lots more. But I thought I would drive my Mother mad with the "Easy Rider" soundtrack. (-8

I have two. "Piece of Mind" and "Somewhere in Time", both by Iron Maiden. If live albums count, then I will add "Decade of Aggression" by Slayer.

Ahh, this thread wasn't 'dead', it was just 'dormant' and you've revived it!

BTW, that album is a classic!

Sammy Hagar "Standing Hampton" is one album/compact disc that I always tell people that they need for their collection. They are hooked once they listen and pass it on to others.

I like a lot of older rap and newer independent rap, but I know they aren't very well liked around here. So I'll just stick to one from that genre (although I could list probably 10-15 "perfect" albums).

That would be Nas - "Illmatic".

A couple others have mentioned are on my list:
Nirvana - "Nevermind"
GnR - "Appetite for Destruction"
3 Doors Down - "The Better Life"

I would also throw in the "Once" soundtrack and Static X - "Wisconsin Death Trip".

Had to really think hard about this lot .... Bob Dylan's "Blood on the Tracks". Springsteen's "Darkness on the Edge of Town" and The Cars "Heartbeat City" are the few where I could listen to each and every track

there are soooooo many out there though where there's just that one track that sees me head for the skip button

Nice pick on King Crimson. I've listed some on here already but here are a few more. Each one has something different to bring to the table enjoy.


"Eldorado, a Symphony"- Electric Light Orchestra
"Close to the Edge"- Yes
"Abigail"- King Diamond
"Focus"- Cynic
"The Mantle"- Agalloch
