Share albums where EVERY SINGLE song is good


It rarely happens to me, but in a pile of records I bought over the summer I

found one with no cover. Shocking Blue’s 2nd album. 'At Home' (I’m your Venus is on it).

Even most Beatles albums have at least one song I could pass on, but not this one. Horrible fidelity, scratched to hell, but damn...

So I’d love to hear of other records that you all could suggest.

ELP 1, tarcus and trilogy. Jethro Tull thick as a brick

Most of the Miles Davis albums 

Some of mine already listed, but not The Houston Kid by Rodney Crowell (which really needs to be issued on LP). Did I miss any of Randy Newman’s early albums, Good Old Boys in particular?

IMO very, very few bands have produced perfect albums, as that demands and requires superior songwriting, which almost all bands lack. Imo, of course. One exception is The Kinks, whose Ray Davies’ songwriting is sublime. Their Face To Face, Something Else By, and Are The Village Green Preservation Society are perfect albums, imo better than ANY of their contemporaries. He on his own wrote better songs than the combined talents of Lennon & McCartney. Jagger and Richards? Surely you jest! ;-)

I’d add Manfred Mann,s Earth Band - Solar Fire to the list of superior albums.

Steely Dan-Gaucho or Aja

Beatles Sgt Peppers and others

Pink Floyd DS and WYWH

Kraftwerk Man Machine

Does a 20 minute Grateful Dead live song count?

Fleetwood Mac Rumours

Bryan Ferry Boys and Girls

Peter Gabriel 3(melt)

Talking Heads Remain in Light

Brian Eno Another Green World and Before and After Science
