Best 5-10 Rock Recordings?

Hello All,

I've just back into vinyl after a 27 year hiatus.

I am interested in your opinions as to the best 5-10, 70's to present, Rock recordings ever

I have DSOM - MSFL release, AJA - Cisco release, SPLHCB - Japanese release and just ordered Abraxas - MSFL release but I need MORE choices for ear candy.

I'm looking for material that will make my humble system shine; where the engineering was par excellence, the sonics soar and energy leaps from the grooves.

Your critical opinions would be much appreciated.

Thanks and regards,

Jan

Hands-down contender would be the original Mo-Fi .5 speed Aqualung. Don't know about later reissues, but this one is spectacular.
