'Perfect albums'

[Gutter Boy]

Lots of good shouts on here. However, I’m surprised The Stone Roses hasn’t been mentioned. It completely passed me by until recently when a mate brought me to watch a (brilliant) tribute act.

I discovered the album in July and, wow, it blew me away. Absolute classic.

Im not sure its perfect - the start and end are brilliant, but the middle 3rd is ropey. It doesnt have Elephant Stone or Fools Gold on it either, even though they are from that period.

The received wisdom is usually that Complete Stone Roses is the better album (although that misses This Is One)

Disintegration - The Cure

Songs of Faith and Devotion - Depeche Mode

Electric Warrior, The Slider and Tanx by T-Rex are all pretty much perfect.

Talking of 3 consecutive studio albums,
Bowie's ZIggy Stardust, Alladin Sane and Diamond Dogs take some beating. As does Let it Bleed, Sticky Fingers and Exile On Main Street from the Stones.
