    damn, I didn't even know there was an album between the two. guess it is pretty obvious that there had to be some "transition" between those two albums.

    It's been disappeared and folded into other releases. I think you can stream it or listen to it on YouTube. I found it at a record shop in Winter Park, Florida, a few years ago.

    It's not terrible; it's just a bit of a stinker by Beefheart standards.

    ACDC's Highway to Hell/Back in Black is as strong a two album punch as there might be, but of course... Scruffy hasn't heard ACDC.

    For my tastes, the Scorpions' Blackout/Love At First Sting is too.

    Sorry, McG, I've chimed in here previously yet realized I hadn't voted.  I went with The Beatles,  Rubber Soul/ Revolver.  If No Code/ Yield had been an option, I'd have gone with Pearl Jam.

    The Fragile is a masterpiece.

    As much as I love Vs., IMO Achtung Baby was the best album of the '90s, and Joshua Tree isn't far behind.

    They just aren’t my cup of tea. I grew up on pj, Nirvana, rage, ska, punk and hardcore.

    The Cult Love/Electric were two fantastic albums (still are).
