    The last album where every song was great imo, with no filler.

    The B-sides and download extras are every bit as good as the album itself, not to mention "Love And Death" and "The Stolen Child".

    I'd say Steven Wilson's The Raven That Refused To Sing. Fantastic album front to back

    That's a great pick, and I'm going to second it. If this was released in 1976-77, it would have been a classic.

    These are the last three albums that were great to me:

    The Rising
    (2002) Bruce Springsteen
    The Year of Hibernation (2011) Youth Lagoon
    I Like It When You Sleep, for You Are So Beautiful yet So Unaware of It (2015) The 1975

    No Filler

    But sure... there have been lots of CD releases that were great, that were 60 minutes or more in length, and if you removed the filler down to one "LP" length album, would be chosen over this 1971 release.

    Lots of truly great albums. Lots of them every year. The greatness is often lost on the closed mind. Power Trip's Nightmare Logic qualifies.
