Your (perfect) record


I have a few in mind but just finished listening to Brian Ferry "Boys and Girls" and I have to say..Awesome!  this one gets my vote!
128x128slaw
A few more: Dylan's Blonde On Blonde, John Wesley Harding, and Blood On The Tracks, Rockpile's Seconds Of Pleasure, John Hiatt's Bring The Family and Slow Turning, Loudon Wainwright's Last Man On Earth, Weezer's s/t ("green" album), The Byrds Sweethearts Of The Rodeo, The Dwight Twilley Band's Sincerely, Emitt Rhodes' s/t debut, Ry Cooder's Bop 'Til You Drop (musically, not sonically, unfortunately---the very first digital Pop album). So much music, so little time.
For me it's *Kind of Blue* by Miles Davis.  I own several copies, reissues and originals, including a very nice 6-Eye stereo LP,
Roxy Music’s "Avalon" LP

Blood Sweat & Tears - eponymous album

Pink Floyd - "Wish You Were Here" import SACD

Miles Davis - "Kind of Blue"

John Coltrane - "Blue Train"

Supertramp- "Crime of the Century"

Steely Dan - "Aja"

Donald Fagan - "The Nightfly"

Patricia Barber - "Cafe Blue" (un-mastered SACD)

Clark Terry - "Portraits"  (get the SACD if possible) - Possibly the most beautifully recorded jazz album ever.  No limits to soundstage with no "trickery".  Fabulous music from a combo of guys totally in sync. 

Dmitri Shostakovich’s symphonies as conducted by Vladimir Ashkenazy (he gets the emotional roller coaster that is a Shosty symphony)
Rubber Soul (U.S. version)
A number of others by the Beatles
All Things Must Pass
Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Avalon Sunset
Blonde on Blonde
Blood On the Tracks
Oh Mercy
Sittin' In
Who's Next
Zep II
Woodstock
The Concert For Bangla Desh
Teatro
The Band
The Last Waltz
Some Nights
Let It Bleed
Achtung Baby
DSOTM
Exodus
Kiko
Darkness on the Edge of Town

That's a start off the top
