Are there any albums you consider perfect?

My daughter gave me an ipod for my birthday and I have been loading music to it slowly. As a perxon who listens to albums start to finish I have been loading albums I consider high quality beginning to end.
Makes me wonder how many perfect albums there are out there. Steely Dan's "Pretzel Logic" is to me perfect. What I mean by perfect is not one sound needs to be added or subtracted to make it better. Funny thing is, "Pretzel Logic" is not my favorite Steely Dan album, but its sound is perfect. I can only come up with a few.
Pink Floyd, "Wish You Were Here"
Tears For Fears, "Songs From The Big Chair"

I'm not even sure who that barb was aimed at...Steve Hackett? The first album that I listed(Neutral Milk Hotel-In The Aeroplane Over The Sea) is nothing but open chords and barre chords but to me it is inspired and perfect. The musicians must know music theory to make a perfect album?

Agnes Obel - Philharmonics. I can find no faults with this album.

Madfloyd, just out of curiosity what haven't you heard on that list? Every album is very well-known in my eyes. I usually get irritated when artists aren't listed with songs/albums but in this case there was no need.
