R&P: Would you like to contribute an album to the 'R&P's greatest albums of all time' list?

Ok R&P, the latest inductee is an album I was actually happy to see receive plenty of TU's; I don't want the list to appear biased. The album was: Master of Puppets by Metallica, thanks to Suicidal Ice Cream Truck Driver. BUT! I have also decided to put two more albums in! Which are: Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division, thanks to The Mokus AND Fancy Squirrel for mentioning it, and London Calling by The Clash, thanks to The Game... You Lost It. Why did I decide to put them in? Because their induction was inevitable and were always just a couple of TU's off from being inducted and were mentioned repeatedly. Here's the list currently:

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground (1967)

Doolittle by Pixies (1989)

OK Computer by Radiohead (1997)

Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd (1973)

In Utero by Nirvana (1993)

Horses by Patti Smith (1975)

Kind of Blue by Miles Davis (1959)

Are You Experienced? by The Jimi Hendrix Experience (1967)

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine (1991)

Daydream Nation by Sonic Youth (1988)

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan (1965)

The White Album by The Beatles (1968)

Either/Or by Elliott Smith (1997)

In the Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel (1998)

Master of Puppets by Metallica (1986)

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division (1979)

London Calling by The Clash (1979)

So, you know what to do. Choose ONE album, and TU the other ones you agree with. The one with the most TU's will be inducted into the 'R&P's greatest albums of all time' list.

BQ: Listening to now?

BQ2: When considering this list is in no particular order, what would you rate it out of ten as a whole?

BQ3: Have you heard the new Kate Bush album? If so, is it worth checking out?

Update:

@Fructose, I could not... I want to see albums that are more out of the ordinary being added. I knew eventually London Calling and Unknown Pleasures was going to go in so.... might as well put them in now!

Update 2:

@Oxy, I know they are, and once all of the generic albums added to a list like this, more interesting stuff would get added.

    BA2: Not counting the two albums I haven't heard; Kind of Blue and Either/Or, I'd give a 10. Besides those two, I really love the albums on this list, and I plan on listening to the two that I haven't heard soon.
