The Black Crowes--Croweology. Yes, a compilation, but they're mostly acoustic arrangements of previous songs. Love it.
Hip Redux
A little before my time but it's really a classic album - Carole King: Tapestry
OOoh, and how about Violent Femmes (the first).

Dark Side Of The Moon for sure. The Wall has some throw aways.
Led Zeppelin IV is perfect. So is #2.
DMB--Under the Table and Dreaming

Well UTTAD wasn't a greatest hits. It was their second album, with one repeat song (first album released on their own). It was a "here's the songs we've been playing in concert for the past few years".
Come all you no-hopers, you jokers and roguesWe're on the road to nowhere, let's find out where it goes

I'm madly in love with Audioslave's first album. Every single song. Chris Cornell has an amazing voice. I just listened to the whole thing yesterday.

I didn't know they even existed in the '80s.

Back in my long-ago single days when I used to take a lot of solo road trips, that was a must-have in the ol' cassette deck. I remember one trip I forgot to bring it, so I just sang the entire album to myself, word for word, all the way through.
I will add something a bit more recent: Green Day - American Idiot
