Default perfect albums.

There are a few record albums that were perfect. Every track was excellent in it's own right.

A few that come to mind.
1) probably the best overall album, Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon.
2) again Pink Floyd, Wish You Were Here
3) Dire Straights, Brothers at Arms.

you thoughts?

Across the board for me, yep, Pink Floyd. I honestly think there are very, very few bands as good at creating amazing albums as they were. Hard to order them for me but I guess I can try.

1) Wish You Were Here
2) The Wall
3) Dark Side of the Moon

Those last two could swap places given when you ask me about it I love the cleverness of how things link up on The Wall. And if one has not yet, pay close attention to the very last thing you hear at the end of the album/2nd disc and the very first thing you hear at the start of the album/first disc It is just one big loop! lol

When I answer this though, I am not just answering about albums that I love all the songs on, but also how well the entire album was thought out and designed end to end. And that part makes it hard for me to choose anything but Pink Floyd. Lots of albums I like every part of out there in terms of just liking the songs. Self titled Clutch album is one I really like as well.

Man, there are many to choose:

I gotta say ,

The Cars, The Cars
Led Zeppelin IV
AC/DC - Highway to Hell
Deep Purple - Machine Head

I could have put in some Bon Jovi albums, Jimi Hendrix, Rainbow, all so close. What I prefer to do with all my favourite bands is buy their greatest hits compilations all on one album.

Dark Side of the Moon album.
Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band album
Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars album
Jerry Lee Lewis Live in Hamburg album (Sold only in Europe)
Boston 76 is a good one. My original went missing in action and I had to get a new remastered one. Great university party album as well as Ziggy Stardust. The "To Be Played at Maximum Volume" instruction on the back of Ziggy Stardust has always been followed by yours truly.

Far Side of the Moon and Sgt Peppers are some of the great all time master class albums in mixing. Groundbreaking at the time and even to this day are remarkable.

The Jerry Lee Lewis Hamburg is considered to be one of the best albums ever made for many reasons and it is one of my all time favorites. It took me a while to finally find one in perfect condition. I found it in England.

Have you seen Rolling Stone’s list of 500 greatest albums of all time? Some cool stuff on there.
