I would say Born in the USA. All the songs have been on the radio at some point in time. Many of them are still played on the radio today. Many of them are still played live. The artwork is a classic 80s iconic image.

After all the praise you've heaped onto this album, I'm expecting this album to cause a total eclipse of the sun when I finally give it a full listen tonight.

As has been noted it's all about the definition. These, however, are albums without any low points and where every song is substantially better than good (position on my chart included):
#1 The Allman Brothers - Live at Fillmore East
#4 Bruce Springsteen - The Wild, the Innocent & the E Street Shuffle
#7 Lynyrd Skynyrd - Pronounced Leh-Nerd Skin-Nerd
#8 Iron Maiden - Powerslave
#10 Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
#12 Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks, Here's the Sex Pistols
#14 Santana - Santana III
#18 Van Morrison - Moondance
EDIT: Haven't given any note to the cover art as that doesn't really matter.

Well, as far as I'm concerned, every track on A Night at the Opera and Superunknown is a 5/5 any day. I don't think either of them is objectively perfect, but I don't think any album in the world is deserving of that title, but those are two for which I can certainly say I wouldn't change a single thing.

Euh.......
No ?
A great album with ugly cover art and a stupid name is NOT a perfect album.

Meh, I've never been so crazy about Unknown Pleasures' artwork. Maybe it's because I see it on the shirt of every other hipster whenever I visit Kensington (Toronto's Williamsburg). |
Totally irrelevant. I own an Unknown Pleasures T-shirt.

Pfft, okay, so, I just finished listening to it. I don't see what the big...
...
I'm... I'm getting this strange compulsion to play it again...
...
I'll... uh... I'll be right back...
