Which are the closer(s) you think best sum up the albums they belong to?
For me When The Angels Fall off Sting's The Soul Cages album takes the cake. Incredibly sums up the sombre, cold yet delicate mood of the whole album, especially with Sting's gentle "Good Night" wish at the end of the song. It's followed closely by Decades by Joy Division off their second and final album, Closer (pretty ironic album name, eh?). Plus, almost all album ending epics by Dream Theater deserve a special mention

Brain Damage/Eclpse has already been mentioned, and consequently Shine On You Crazy Diamond part IX immediately sprang to mind... |

And the last part of the "Golden Slumber/Carry that Weight" is a song by itself called "The End." That song is great because is shows the distinctive guitar playing styles of Paul McCartney, George Harrison, and John Lennon. They takes turns in 2 bar solos.

The first one I thought of though is Into The Sun - Live Album by Grand Funk Railroad.
