Dark side, Sgt. Peppers, and Kind of Blue are popular for being masterpieces. What others would you include. I’ll start by saying Operation Mindcrime, a Rush trio of: 2112, A Farewell to Kings, and Hemispheres. Back in Black and Hysteria as well. | ||

Stevie Wonder’s classic period in the 70’s. This was after he renegotiated his contract with Motown to have full creative and artistic control. And when he added the synth. Music of My Mind Talking Book Innervisions Songs in the Key of Life What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

After a quick browse of the music on my phone: Ten Summoner's Tales - Sting Seriously excellent musicianship. Only -Tommy Emmanuel The best blend of his styles, nothing too over the top. The Dave Brubeck Quartet, At Carnegie Hall Hard to believe it was recorded live, outstanding. Chris Thile and Edgar Meyer - Bass and Mandolin Two virtuosos. ![]() ![]() | |||

Semper Fi - 1775![]() |
Without Googling or referencing anything, top of my head: Harry Connick Jr: We are in Love XTC - Skylarking Metallica - Master of Puppets Alice In Chains - Dirt Guns and Roses - Appetite for Destruction ___________________________ All it takes...is all you got. ____________________________ For those who have fought for it, Freedom has a flavor the protected will never know ΜΟΛΩΝ ΛΑΒΕ | |||

This thread is more like a listing of favorite albums than "Masterpiece" albums. That's because there are sooooooo many really great albums (when you call it albums, you know we're getting old, LOL). All 60-70-80's for the most part. Nevertheless, love seeing them here. ![]() Mine start with (but in no way end here) Steely Dan: Countdown to Ecstasy Rare Earth: In Concert Little Feat: Waiting for Columbus Marshall Tucker: Where We All Belong I cold go on for a long time with more....... ![]() Lot of really great tunes ... Masterpiece to me ... | |||

I was going to put that one on the list as well. Not sure why I kept it off. It's definitely their best album and surely defined the genre at the time. | |||
