Well, this question is all relative. But, if your asking about just shear brilliance and recording and sounds, and instrumentation and everything else in between then i would have to say...

Jellyfish - Spilt Milk

Heavy, Heavy, Production. Totally Humbling.

Many of my favs I have seen here posted.

But, one artist I don't see mentioned at all:

MC Solaar.

Mostly samples, and early albums sampled heavily from serge gainsbourg, but still top notch stuff, methinks.

That would be DJ Premier, he's a God.

Honestly, I was just thinking about some of the early albums, and I got goosebumps. I should dig them out if I still have them.....

very mean question. thats as few as i can think of after passing the very obvious 20y/o classics:

beastie boys - check your head
prodigy - experience
plastikman - consumed AND closer
biosphere - substrata
squarepusher - hard normal daddy
aphex twin - Selected Ambient Works 85-92
autechre - amber
Mu - afro finger and gel (well.. yes!)

enough
stop!

These all inspired the hell out of me, and I listen to em all almost everyday:

1. Pet Sounds
2. Loveless
3. Maximo Park - A Certain Trigger
4. Shins - Oh, Inverted World
5. Super Ape - Lee "Scratch" Perry

Hmm

Leftfield - Leftism
Underworld - Dubnobasswithmyheadman
Pink Floyd - Echoes
Motorhead - No Sleep till Hammersmith
BOC - Music Has The Right To Children

Five albums is just too hard to pin down, those 5 occurred at influential times in my life, and still stand up for me today. The more I start to think about it, the more just keep popping into my head, damn!

Ok I'll play along, my top 5 in no order:

John Coltrane: A Love Supreme
Miles Davis: Four and More
Radiohead: Kid A
Steve Reich: Music for 18 Musicians
Serge Gainsbourg: Melody Nelson

whoever mentioned Beck's Sea Change was way right. I just picked it up a couple days ago.. vura nice

Also.. I second the Hot Rats nomination--perhaps Zappa's finest hour. And I nominate XTC--Oranges and Lemons, and Skylarking.

plus... Captain Beefheart: Doc at the Radar Station
