OMG .. what a tough thread...

Songs in the Key of Life - Stevie Wonder
Whats Going On - Marvin Gaye
All Mod Cons - The Jam
London Calling - The Clash
Quadrophenia - The Who
Yell Fire - Michael Franti and Spearhead
Kaya - Bob Marley
Live at the Filmore - King Kurtis

Quadrophenia is great album of the rock-opera genre, far better than Tommy, IMO.

In the Best Soundtrack category, I'll nominate the Times Square Soundtrack of 1980.

Some fantastic choices Inspiration. You've got good, and varied, taste and can see beyond what's hot right now. 90% of what I've seen listed so far as the "best album" will most likely be forgotten in a few years. If this was 1976 I'm sure some folks would be listing The Bay City Rollers Graetest Hits. "Bay City Rollers?" some may ask. My point exactly.

Anyhow, a few I'd add to your list:

Otis Redding- Dock of the Bay
Allman Brothers- At the Fillmore East
Beatles-Revolver, Abbey Road
Bob Dylan-Blonde on Blonde
Steely Dan-Aja
