Not disagreeing as I said they got a lot more interesting later in their career. I think I stated that early on they were pop bubble gum I still think that is true.

Popular music for sure but even there the Beatles moved the needle. From a Hard Days Night to Help to Rubber Soul, even their pop music got more sophisticated,

Wow, this thread made me realize that I don't listen to a lot of rock albums, just a lot of songs from the genre. But for whatever it's worth, and I've only heard a couple songs off of it; I this should be in there and I don't think it was mentioned

I would say the following are at or near the top for me:

Led Zepplin- Physical Graffitti (better than their others because it is a double album!)
The Rolling Stones- Sticky Fingers
Pink Floyd- Dark Side of the Moon
Soundgarden- Superunknown
Tool- Aemina
The Beatles- Abbey Road (Rubber Soul is close though)
Nirvana- Bleach (yeah, I said it! Better than Nevermind IMO)
The Who- Quadrophenia (beats out Who's Next by a whisker because of cohesive theme)
UFO- Strangers in the Night (Best live album of all time? Another subject to discuss I guess).
The Jimi Hendrix Experience- Are You Experienced?
Queens of the Stone Age- Songs for the Deaf


Many, many other great albums out there but too many to list all. Besides, most probably will not agree that Opeth- The Round House Tapes or Melvins- Stoner Witch, etc. etc. are at the same level as the others so I will leave it at that.

I like the way you categorize your lists, both on this board and on the entertainment forum.

Excellent addition to the discussion. Not one weak song on the entire album and it comes with the added instruction :To be played at maximum volume"
