I love that album, but I think it has more to do with Jim Steinman (song writer and producer) than with Meat Loaf, although he can wail. He also wrote and produced Bonnie Tyler's "Total Eclipse of the Heart"
"Bat Out of Hell" is also the 4th top selling album of all time.
A few more that I can still listen to in their entirety for the list:
AC/DC - Back in Black
Queen - A Night at the Opera
Prince - Purple Rain
Eagles - Hotel California
James Taylor - JT
And for the really obscure
Uriah Heep - The Magicians Birthday - Any Uriah Heep fans out there?

What a great thread! Tons of good music here!
I can't do without:
Emperor - Wrath of The Tyrants (thebeginning of something great)
Emperor - In the Nightside Eclipse (these guys are serious)
Emperor - Anthems to the Welkin at Dusk (possibly the best black metal album in history)
Emperor - IX Equilibrium (Now they're just toying with us....)
Emperor - Prometheus (The Emperor died with the biggest explosion in the black metal scene)
Kiss - Hotter than Hell (the grungy sound and feeling in that album is awesome)
Rush - Rush (??? No name on the cover)
Johnny Cash at San Quentin
Meshuggah - Cath 33 |

Yeah, Heep was a fav of mine back in the drug-hazed days. Saw them at North Central College in Naperville in '74, I think. Had Magicians Birthday, and Demons and Wizards on vinyl.
There's probably not a lot of country and bluegrass fans out there, but Alison Kraus and Union Station "New Favorite" is top notch beginning to end. Love it.
And Alison Kraus and Robert Plant "Raising Sand" is incredible as well.

AC/DC suffered from a horrrrrrible drummer. Just imagine if they had someone who could wail back there. Most AC/DC songs have the same drum beat the whole album. Still amazing band, and Hell's Bells is one of the best intros ever. Hell, AC/DC rules at intros to songs. |

I heartily concur with these:
Bruce Springsteen - Born To Run / The Wild, The Innocent, and the E Street Shuffle
Elvis Costello - My Aim Is True (also Trust / Imperial Bedroom / Punch the Clock)
Blood on the Tracks - Bob Dylan
Joni Mitchell - Blue
Fleetwood Mac - Rumors
Add these:
Tom Waits - Heart of Saturday Night
The Pretenders - The Pretenders
Talking Heads - Little Creatures
And a couple old softie favorites:
Carole King - Tapestry
Stevie Wonder - Songs in the Key of Life
Why yes, I *am* old. :-) |

| Tom Waits is a mind blower haha. That voice is ridiculous, but it just works so well. I am a big fan of the album "ALICE", which at times he sounds like Cookiemonster. |

Oh neat stuff - Bruce was just honored at the Kennedy Center Awards or whatever you call them.
Pretty solid Obama quote: I may be president, but he's The Boss. (something to that extent) |

THIS ANSWER IS MENT FOR AJSULLIVAN!
Nah, we stopped doing that a few years ago :p But Norway 92/93/94 was crazy... He more or less just got out of prison. I'm actually much more interested in this than his new album.
To get back on topic,
Opeth - Damnation is a record everyone should check out. Cool, unperfected, bordering to easy jazzpop played by a death metal band. |

You can never go wrong with some Opeth.
Yeah, Varg just got out earlier in the year and has already got a new album together. His prison stuff was nutty and he is just a little bit to far gone mentally now a days (Norweigans evolved from Aliens who hate black people) |
