Perfect Albums

Q-Tip - "The Reinassance"
RATM - "RATM"
Mobb Deep - "Hell on Earth"
Michael Jackson - "Thriller"
Dre - "Chronic", "Chronic 2001"
 
If I were to put an R.E.M. album on this list it would be Reckoning. That is incredible from beginning to end.
 
The closest R.E.M. album for me is "Life's Rich Pageant" but that has a couple of songs that rarely get played, but I make up for it by replaying "Fall on Me" a few times. 20+ years later and I still love that song.

I actually meant to bring that up originally. I don't either.

generally I'd agree, but for stuff that came out in the 60's & 70's when a lot of music first came out on "singles" it's sort of a different situation. Part of the decisions of what might go on the album was based on what had been the hit singles.

Rod Stewart - Every Picture Tells a Story - I've got to agree, that's another favorite of mine
Buffalo Springfield - their first album, I think it's just called "Buffalo Springfield"
Cream - their first album, Fresh Cream - haven't listened to it in about 20 years probably :-(


and I'll omit their "Greatest Hits" but add "Bridge Over Troubled Water" to my list - - except that I really couldn't stand the title song. Other than that, it was perfect.

For years I said that I hated "Bridge Over Troubled Water". It was too slow, too this, too that. Then one night I was listening to my mp3 library and that song came on and I was shocked to find myself actually enjoying it. The twist is that it wasn't Simon & Garfunkel, but rather Elvis. His version is amazing. I now also appreciate the S&G version, but LOVE the Elvis version. Aretha also has a great version of the song.
