A lot of people get (album) for the song (song) but get a real good album
A lot of people get Led Zeppelin IV for the song Stairway to Heaven but get a real good album
A lot of people get Hotel California by the Eagles for the song Hotel California but get a real good album
A lot of people get The Downward Spiral by NIN for the song Closer but get a real good album
Any other you can think of?

There is no way in hell you're not drunk this time JMan. No use in denying it anymore.

The ones that spring to mind that I bought when the singles off them were released
Radiohead The Bends for High and Dry
Oasis Definately Maybe for Live Forever
The Stokes Is This it for Last night
Damien Rice O for cannonball
Smashing Pumpkins Siamese Drean for Today
Come on Feel the Lemonheads for Into your Arms
Soul Asylum Grave Dancers Union for Runaway Train
And quick edit as I almost forgot the most important one, as it was the first album I bought that got me into music, R.E.M. Out of Time for Losing my Religion.

Yes, that's the purpose of singles (at least, in the vast majority of cases in recent years).

I listened to that album because of those songs, and found they were the only great ones 🙁
