What are your Perfect or near perfect albums in your collection?

Razzia - Tag Ohne Schatten. "The best punk album that made its way past the federal prosecutor's office". German HC punk, well-recorded, strong from start to finish.

The Ex - Blueprints for a Blackout. Experimental "jazzy" post-punk double LP, includes 12" multipage lyrics book with great collage artwork. You miss it if you stream!

The Ex & Tom Cora - Rambling at the Lock. Experimental "jazzy" post-punk with 'cello! The synergy of the musicians is outstanding.

Rites of Spring - Rites of Spring. HC punk - metal. Operatic high speed precision carnage.

Videotraum - Ebbe/Flut. German dreamy cold wave from Hamburg.

Everytime I put on Muddy Waters "Folk Singer"... I am wow'd!  Ray Brown "Soular,  Energy", Lucinda Williams "At Filmore West", ...a few.

Monkey House’s albums Friday and Crash Box will blow you away with their clarity and musicianship. A Canadian group that deserves a lot of respect in my book.

Let me add, Boz Scaggs/Come on Home, John Prine/In Spite of Ourselves, Richie Havens/The End of the Beginning. Thanks to all for your contributions, I am already discovering some great music. Enjoy the music

In my opinion, any album that I can happily listen to every single track with a smile on my face is a Perfect album.  I have so many I can’t pick just one.

From Michel Petrucciani to Michael Franks to Bill Evans to The Beatles to Jefferson Airplane to Lou Donaldson to Kenny Burrell….
