Lots of good suggestions in this thread. Let me introduce you to a few I have not seen mentioned:

Clutch - Clutch (hard/stoner rock)
Clutch - Elephant Riders - (same but with a little more funk)

Morphine - Like Swimming (experimental/jazz rock)
Morphine - Yes

Portishead - Dummy (was mentioned before, probably the best example of trip hop)

So at least one of my suggestions will be controversial, but my interpretation of the premise is what albums that I personally enjoy every single track... that being the case 4 jump to mind immediately.

Hybrid Theory - Linkin Park
My Own Prison - Creed
You Get What You Give - Zac Brown Band
The Complex - Blue Man Group

I always say that Merle Haggard is the greatest Country music singer/songwriter/performer of all time (and I included a Haggard album in my list on the first page), but... I got to looking though my music and I think I might have one or two more albums by Dwight Yoakum than Merle. Two that I think are outstanding are: “Blame the Vain,” and “This Time.” I think there are a few others that are almost “100% solid.”

In my C&W days...

"If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne

"Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24

Not really a best of album, but Eric Clapton, Unplugged. I could listen to Layla, Old Love and Tears in Heaven all day long. The rest of the songs are solid too.

Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Trouble: The Sky Is Crying. I literally listen to "Little Wing" on a regular basis since 1992.

Foo Fighters: One by One

Pink Floyd: DSOTM and The Wall

Rush: 2112

Cake (If you're into that sort of music): Fashion Nugget, Showroom of Compassion, Pressure Chief, Comfort Eagle

Mumford and Sons: Babel and Sigh No More

3 already mentioned.

Allman Brothers "Live At Fillmore East"
Keith Jarrett "Koln Concert"
Little Feat "Waiting For Columbus"...There were many more but these are stand outs.

Did not see these...

Grateful Dead "Dead Set" (skip "Space") and "Dead Reckoning"

Jethro Tull "Aqaulung"

The Who "Whos Next"

Tom Waits "Nighthawks At The Diner"

Now, some of the (old school) ladies whom have been neglected:

Bonnie Rait "Takin My Time", "Give It Up" and "Streetlights"

Joni Mitchell "Miles Of Aisles"

And for Jazz fans...

Mal Waldron Trio "Free At Last"

Never A Dull Moment.

Like Every Picture Tells A Story, a landmark album for Rod Stewart. These albums rocked hard with just acoustic guitar as the driving instrument. During the early 70s, Rod and The Faces were the equals of The Stones, IMO.
