For me, Led Zep II, hand down.

 

[BluesMan845]

i'll say ,

Blood Sugar Sex Magik, Red hot Chili Peppers - man, the production of this albums, the sound of all instruments, the switch between songs, the songs!! IMO one of the nearest to perfection...

PO

Right On with BSSM. I can think of plenty other albums that I can't turn off but none come to mind right away as far as songwriting, flow of the song order and production. BSSM is truly in a class of it's own for me. Killer , Killer album !
