Wow an old album that rocked your world

I know this is a Hifi forum but isn’t it about the music as well. Has anyone recently played a
Vinyl, disc or whatever you are into. One that you forgot was so good and totally was blown away by the music and the recording? If so share it with us. Mine was Mahavishnu orchestra Birds of Fire. Have not listened to that for some time. Wow. FORGOT HOW GOOD THAT WAS. 
This is what Hifi is all about IMO.

The 13th Floor Elevators - Easter Everywhere deserves a listen even if (like me) you didn't have it back in the day....this and the first album are classics (that stuttering sound you hear in the background isn't an effects pedaled guitar....it's a jug!).
All good choices this string....12 Dreams, Guess Who, Mahavishnuetc.
James Gang - Rides Again brings it like no other!

I thought of another gem...
Even if you think that you have no interest in The Kinks, or all that you know of them is "Lola" (yuk) or "You Really Got Me", you need to get Village Green Preservation Society. I've been listening to it for about 45 years and I never get tired of it. It is fresh and brilliant. Ray Davies and the band at their best, which is very good indeed.

@roxy54, you are SOP right about VGPS! Ray's other masterpieces are the two previous Kinks albums, the equally great Face To Face ('66) and Something Else ('67). Three in a row!
