Are there any albums you consider perfect?

Sit, point taken. Maybe I should have ended my post with one of these :)
The way I see it is there are many recordings which can be enjoyed start to finish but few which over the years have maintained perfection. So many good recordings fall short by one or two songs. The Counting Crows "August And Everything After" is an example that for me is so close to perfect. Also, there are several selections on your list where I would not consider the particular album one of the artists stronger works. That shows how much this is simply a matter of taste.
No wrong answers here.

Timru,
This music hobby/obsession/passion is incredible, isn't it.

I find I need a music fix no less than several times a day. My ears and mind are always open to something new. Love it!
Lots of fantastic recommendations on A'Gon I've picked up on. People who enjoy the muse as I do.

I'm fond of something that Abram Chasins once said, "The more you love music, The more music you love".

I was told I would grow out of this. That was 36 years ago.

Music up!

There is no way in my heart to list as many "perfect" albums as sit did. A long list such as his simply diminishes the word and concept for that matter.

I have over 7,000 vinyl records now and could personally not apply the word "perfect" to more than 3 or 4.

The terms perfect and great are grossly overused in the forums and this thread is no different.

Michael jackson albums are the best ever, the king of pop for all the time.

yow. this could take a while. [big smile]

um ... i would have to begin with a few Beatle albums because that's where my listening began. "Rubber Soul" and "Revolver" certainly qualify as perfect, as do the obvious, "Sgt. Pepper's" and ["Abbey Road" (agreed, Vegasears!)].

a fairly obscure album by today's measure, at least, is one by Steppenwolf --- "At Your Birthday Party." that vinyl got countless miles of airplay on my little Sear's portable stereo!

jump a couple of decades (missing *many* an album) to Paul Simon's "Graceland": genius from start to finish.

lasso in The Pretenders' "Pretenders II" (i mean, the cover art, alone, is perfection. >>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pretenders_II).

and finally, (although, i could stay here, listing several more that qualify!) i have to include an album by Neil Finn, "Try Whistling This".

that's a beginning!
