This may have been posted already but if not…Joni’s best album and therefore one of the greatest contemporary albums. 10 beautifully crafted songs, the majority cast iron classics.

For me it’s got to be Def Leppard - Hysteria (already mentioned)

But for something a bit different;
My Dying Bride - Like Gods of the Sun

Creedance Clearwater Revival - Willy and the Poor Boys. Maybe not their best (imo) but certainly a great 4th Album.

I’m going to throw one in from left field.

Take That - Beautiful World (2006)

This is first album after the split and then reformation without Robbie Williams.

Another ripper than I only just came to mind as I played it:

The Church - Heyday

Pulp - His n Hers (really start to hit their stride here)
The Smiths - The Queen is Dead (#1 on NME’s greatest albums of all time)
LL Cool J - Mama said Knock You Out (Don’t call it a comeback)

I’d call this their 3rd. Hatful was a compilation.

Dylan was just warming up by #4.

As was Pink Floyd

Velvet Undergrounds best record, for me.

Right you are sir. That said, Strangeways will happily slot in its place.

After going on Friday night to see Depeche Mode Tribute band Strangelove at Billboards I must include dm’s 4th album Some Great Reward here.

This album really was the beginning of cementing them along the way to becoming a worldwide heavyweight of a band and live act.
