^ Sounds good

The Best of Playschool

As a children's album it is utterly perfect. Great musicians playing great music with great actors reading from great scripts. The production is excellent and even the sequence of all 38 tracks is well planned.

Strangely I am beginning to really like this.

Surprised to see Dark Side of the Moon on here so much.  "Money" is one of the most popular filler songs of all time IMHO.  The rest is absolutely flawless though.

Animals, Meddle, and Wish You Were Here are all pretty much perfect, as previously mentioned.  I listen to too much Floyd.
 
 
I'd add Quadrophenia and Tommy to the list, but since they're rock operas I think they kind of bend the rules...

The Times They Are a-Changin'.
 
And some non-Dylan:
And Justice For All - Metallica
Surfing With The Alien - Joe Satriani

That's all I can think of at the moment.

Beggars Banquet - Rolling Stones
Let It Bleed -  Rolling Stones
Sticky Fingers - Rolling Stones
Exile on Main St. - Rolling Stones
 
Possibly the most consistent output of quality rock music by any band in any era, but of course, that's just my opinion.

One of the (if not the) most monumental runs of rock albums there!

Converge - Jane Doe 
I have listened to this whole album 100 times on itunes alone. This is near the top of my list for best album ever but that's going off topic.
 
Isis - Oceanic
I absolutely love every track on this album from the untitled noise track to Hym. One of the most moving pieces of music I've ever experienced. 
 
 
I know the albums are talked about a lot, but I have not seen them mentioned yet.
 
Phillip Glass - Einstein on the beach
I don't know what it is about this album, but I keep coming back to it. Some times I like to have one copy playing on my itunes then go to youtube and start another one so they sink up at times.
 
Harvey Milk - My love is Higher than your assessment of what my love could be
This is my left field album. It's not perfect, it's not easy to like, the mix doesn't sound perfect so it adds flaws but those flaws push it to a higher level.
