+1

It's amazing that Boston's S/T album is 32 years old, VH's S/T album is 30 years old, DL's Hysteria is 21 years old, and DT's I&W is 16 years old. But they STILL rock.

 

[J-Dubya 777]

I was hoping someone was going to mention these two as well, as I'm in agreement here.

IMO how could you NOT mention them? There isn't a lame song amongst either of them. Some people might consider them over played, and to an extent, they were. But a bad/subpar song or "flaw" from either? Not in my opinion. back at ya Diamond!

And that production on that Boston album still holds up today.....
