My daughter gave me an ipod for my birthday and I have been loading music to it slowly. As a perxon who listens to albums start to finish I have been loading albums I consider high quality beginning to end. Makes me wonder how many perfect albums there are out there. Steely Dan's "Pretzel Logic" is to me perfect. What I mean by perfect is not one sound needs to be added or subtracted to make it better. Funny thing is, "Pretzel Logic" is not my favorite Steely Dan album, but its sound is perfect. I can only come up with a few. Pink Floyd, "Wish You Were Here" Tears For Fears, "Songs From The Big Chair"
Love that album. It was inspired by Big Star out of Memphis. Jim Dickerson's production was flawless--same studio where Alex Chilton recorded. The other under-rated Matts album is Let it Be!.
Although I have read all the responses at one time, not sure if I've seen Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On." Revisited this a few times in the last week. It comes very close.
I surely appreciate Audiofeil's and Sit's responses, but music is such a very personal thing. I hope that everyone can understand that one man's or woman's perception of perfect, is, just that... their own perception. After all, how can one person define "perfect"?
