    Hell yeah. Illmatic is especially flawless, although I prefer 36 Chambers. Nothing on Illmatic excites me as much as Da Mystery of Chessboxin' or Duel of the Iron Mic but it's the only hip-hop album I can think of without ONE wasted second.

    The only flaw on that is Noel's effort, Little Miss Strange.

    excellent thread. i can't read what everybody else is saying, out of fear that my head will explode.

    but the first thing that came to mind was Tool's Aenima. it is an absolute work of art, and completely transformed the way i listen to, and play, music.

    From start to finish great album

    If I read any more of this thread I will get influenced.

    Here is my picks

    Blind Melon-Soup
    Live-Throwing Copper
    Pink Floyd-Meddle
    Pearl Jam-Vitalogy
    Grateful Dead-Europe 72
    Radiohead-From Bends up.
    Paul Simon-Graceland
    Phish-Lawn Boy
    Green Day-Dookie
    Jack Logan-Bulk
    Neil Young-Zuma, Harvest and Harvest Moon


    There are others I'm sure.

    Listened to Astral Weeks again this morning, while reading Ulysses no less. What a wonderful poetic combination :D

    I don't know why I never paid that much attention to Slim Slow Slider. Becoming one of my favourite songs.
