Best 5-10 Rock Recordings?

Without getting into high priced reissues I'd say Doors 1st couple albums on Electra are very good. Hendrix Electric Ladyland is excellent. Jeff Beck Truth with Rod Stewart & Nicky Hopkins on piano is very good. Any Beatles on Parlophone/EMI label(forget the Capitol trash), or many of the Japanese pressings. Early Cream is all bad and many Led Zeps are decent but just ok in my mind(others may disagree). Too bad most Stones are mostly just ok too but it's hard to deny there's a lot of good music. That's where a lower resolution system may be a blessing.

Who's Next on 200 gram clasic.

Given that opinions are like, well...Here's a few items off the top of my head:

Foreigner - Double Vision
Zappa - Sheik Yerbouti
Lowell George - Thanks, I'll Eat It Here
Linda Ronstadt - Simple Dreams
Richard Thompson - Old Kit Bag
Santana - Moonflower
Little River Band - S/T; Diamantina Cocktail
Toto - IV
Neil Young - Comes A Time
Queen - The Game

Nearly any Little Feat, Supertramp, Steely Dan, Eagles, Talking Heads, to name but a few....

BTW, these are all original issues of these LPs - no remastered, half-speed, reissues. They all get high marks for both sonics and music. There's too much great music out there to buy based solely on sonics - I've heard too many systems where the tired old "audiophile chestnuts" are trotted out. C'mon man, play some music!! Good listening,

Many good suggestions. Here's a couple more: Dire Straits: Brothers in Arms & Love Over Gold.

There's no accounting for taste.

I tried but there are just too many. I can't come up with just 5 or 10.

I think Palasr had a good list.
If you go with Supertramp - bolt down your table, play it loud and don't operate any machinery.
I've heard that being interrupted while listeing to "Bloody Well Right" or "School" is a known cause of domestic disturbance.
