not necessarily the best that can be but these are albums I have a sentiment to and will listen to probably until the end of my days
no specific order:

Pink Floyd - Dark Side of the Moon
Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms
Nirvana - MTV Unplugged
The Beatles - Abbey Road
Opeth - Deliverance
Radiohead - Kid A
U2 - The best 1980-1990
Tool - Aenima
Meshuggah - Nothing
Massive Attack - 100th Window

The best of for U2 crossed my mind, but I decided to stick with individual releases, not compilations. Since you included the U2 selection, I'll add the Eagles Greatest Hits. There is no single Eagles album that jumps out at me, but they did release some great songs.

well, if I'd have to, I'd obviously say Joshua Tree but this compilation has a much greater sentimental value for me - it introduced me to their music and sticked around with me for the good and the bad so I had to :D
 
Good to see a little love for Houses of the Holy, the most overlooked 5-million selling album of all time.

Mr. Bungle - California
Emperor - Welkin
Frank Black - Teenager of the Year
