Bands with great second albums

Bands that had a great second album. We all know the obvious ones Led Zeppelin, Hendrix, The Beatles. What are your votes for great second albums. Some of mine are:
Neil Young - Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere
Elvis Costello - This Years Model
Allman Brothers Band - 'Idlewild South'
Badfinger - No Dice

I'm pretty sure Tom Petty's "Damn the Torpedoes" was his sophomore effort. Better than the 1st, to me.

@motown-I6,

Nope! "You're Gonna Get It" was his 2nd lp.

Yes- Indeed, Fragile is great... But their second album Time and a Word is a strong album. I really like their their first four, with Close to the Edge next. I am always engaged by their first two, and Time and a Word early press LP sounds darned good. Agree on Joni: Clouds, but I feel it is sandwiched between two better albums.
