Actually I would disagree, I don't think any of the tracks on that are filler (its my favorite Beatles album), and I didn't say that filler makes an album bad, I said that I am less likely to listen to an overly long album than one that is perfectly paced and never drags on.
Unless of course, you are saying that the Beatles album is impossible to listen to all the way through, then I would ask why you are bringing up albums that you don't like enough to listen through.

I agree, but if its an album that only has ONE serious dud, then I will still listen through the dud. I am saying if I like an album AT ALL, I consider it worth my time to listen through the whole thing.
I think it says more about you guys that you are assuming that I am saying albums are bad because they have filler. I have almost 700 albums rated on RYM, and less than 50 of them are albums I would say I can't listen to all the way through. Even the albums I rated low I am perfectly happy to listen all the way through.

I was going to say anything by The Jam, but I was skipping through Sound Affects in the car today, so...
But here are some definite no-skips:
Metric--Fantasies
It's the best New Wave album that really should have the power to go back in time and be released in 1982.
Radiohead--The Bends
Adding to the applause, but it remains my favourite Radiohead album ever. The newer material, while I still buy it, just doesn't have the power for me that this album did.
The Beatles--Abbey Road
And the above posters have made me want to revisit Porcupine Tree tonight for re-evaluation.

Albums without songs you skip != favorite/best albums.
Remember, even London Calling, widely considered one of the best albums ever made, has at least one shit song - Lover's Rock - and maybe even two or three if you count the hit-or-miss songs like Card Cheat and Four Horsemen.

Dark Side of the Moon, the Division Bell, Images and Words, Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence, Kezia.
Divine Wings of Tragedy, Paradise Lost, Shadow Gallery, The Human Equation, Holy Diver
The Black Album, Master of Puppets, And Justice For All, Unbreakable, Love at First Sting
This is a fraction of the albums I will listen to all the way through. Just the ones I think of first at the moment. There might be a weak track or two in there somewhere, but with prog and concept albums I listen to all of the tracks regardless.

So many good picks here.
Sorry to be so shallow, but Madonna's Confessions album is still one of the rare pop gems that you can listen from A to Z without feeling bored. Price's production is peerless. Packed with simple details like an synth-heavy album ending on acoustic guitar. He's probably one of the only producers out there who rarely leaves "fillers" in his work.

Doggystyle - Snoop Dogg - pretty much one of the best west coast album ever (after No One Can Do it Better). Perfect blend of Gfunk and old riding beats. I loved the Chronic but I am not going to lie and say I listen to the whole album like I do with Doggystyle
Straight outta of Compton - NWA - Classic, paints a really solid picture of Cali life during the colors era.. also started the West Coast movement
ATLiens - Outkast - Their best album. Good mix of Andre's poppiness and Big Boi's down south roots.
Uncle Sam's Curse - Above the Law- Sadly under-rated album from a group that features one of the better rappers verse for verse from the West Coast. Cold 187 spits all album.. good stuff
Trauma - DJ Quik - Quik is one of the few rapper/producers who does both really well. Most of his albums are great. Way 2 Funky almost made it over this one, but I really loved how he came back to his roots with the album giving the feeling of his older stuff like Way 2 Funky and Quik is the Name.
Jimi Hendrix's Experience - Jimi Hendrix - Jimi.. what else can be said?
The Documentary - The Game - listened to a bunch of this album for the first time in awhile and thought how great it sounded all together and then he proceeds to release one good song per album after that... sad..
Death Certificate- Ice Cube - God damn I'm glad y'all set it off.. Hard to think the man who made this classic album is doing kid movies.
Michael Jackson - Thriller - Mike had a pass to do anything he wanted from me because of this album
Digital Underground - Sex Packets - Sad that nobody gives Shock G any love.. They had a really solid run of albums but Sex Packets was by far the funniest.. from the wacky Humpty crap to the more artful sounds to the west coast gfunk souns the album had a bit of it all.
4.21 - Method Man - Method Man is ill.. He is so good that he deserves to be on beats from all over the map.. Tical the Prequel and this album are my favorites because the productions are so varied making them so good.
Malpractice - Redman - Red is a little rusty these days but this album was nuts.
Silkk the Shocker - Silkk the Shocker (dirty pleasure of mine) - I was a big No Limit fan in high school. Like most teenagers I was mad at the world and No Limit gave me all the angry screaming I needed. But with being said this album is pretty solid.. and the beats are stupid banging..
In a Major Way - E-40 (in truth I could have filled half the list with 40 water albums) Man so many great albums from E-40 it was hard to pick one.. so I picked the one that started his national career instead of being sold only on the west coast. But in truth almost all of his albums I listen to start to finish
No One Can Do it Better - The D.O.C- annnnnd to me maybe the greatest rap album of all time. I know people will say Illmatic, Erik B and Rakim and many other classics... but if you have never heard this album and you are a hip hop listen to it and tell you honestly think it was recorded in 1988/1989.. The DOC pretty much helped create the West Coast sound that was popular through the 90s... And he did it with one album.. Before he messed up his voice box in a car crash.. then he pretty much made Snoop by writing for him..

I grew up on albums, so I listen to entire albums all the time, but these fifteen (randomly picked) are all ones that once I listen to a bit, I have to hear the whole album:
Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick - One of my favorite albums of all time. If I hear even a lick of it, I'll have to hear the whole 45+ minute song/album.
Sisters of Mercy - First Last and Always - Not even my favorite Sisters album, but for me it evokes a time and a place so strongly that the nostalgia captures me.
The Mountain Goats - The Sunset Tree - I listen to this entire album at least once a month. There are so many songs on this album that speak to me that I would have bought a copy for every song if I had to.
Lemon Jelly - Both .ky and Lost Horizons -- Every song amazing. I would literally kidnap their families to get another album of this caliber.
Low - The Great Destroyer - A wonderful album that moves from quiet to loud to insane, and back to quiet. Not much like most Low albums.
XTC - Apple Venus - I'm an XTC freak, but Apple Venus was the first album they put out after their long protracted struggle with Virgin music. Great songs, done with swelling strings and woodwinds instead of electric guitars and keyboards.
Pink Floyd - The Final Cut - One of the least favorite Floyd albums is my favorite. It's distilled Waters in agony, which is the bit I always liked about Floyd. It's one of those albums that killed a band, so you must respect its mojo.
Paul Simon - Songs from the Capeman - Paul Simon, Reuben Blades, Marc Anthony and a musical about the life of Salvador Agron. Certainly not for everyone, but it moves me very deeply.
Violent Femmes - Hallowed Ground - Country Death Song starts the album and It's Gonna Rain ends it. Never found a good place to stop. I've owned this on vinyl, cassette, and DVD.
Liz Phair - Girly Sound(sorta) - Not actually an album, but a collection of demos prior to Exile in Guyville I got from a friend in Chicago. I converted them to MP3 years ago. They eventually released all of them except a couple, but in different versions. I got used to these. I always listen to them in one big orgy.
Bad Religion - Stranger Than Fiction - Another once a month album. Almost always while I'm driving.
Bentley Rhythm Ace - Bentley Rhythm Ace - I want to fuck this entire album and give it babies.
1 Giant Leap - 1 Giant Leap - Not only every song on the album, but ever bar of every song. I routinely force people to listen to this album. It's always on my memory stick.
Soul Coughing - El Oso - Another band-ending album. So cohesive, so lyrically beautiful and funky.
That's fifteen, but I never got around to Key Lime Pie by Camper Van Beethoven. I love albums.
Jethro Tull - Thick as a Brick - One of my favorite albums of all time. If I hear even a lick of it, I'll have to hear the whole 45+ minute song/album.

There were plenty of other album choices from the artists I listed that I may actually consider better, but I haven't necessarily listened to enough, or may not be listening to as much at the moment.

I've grown out of Placebo over the years, but I still really like the variety and sound of Black Market Music. Spite & Malice, Black-Eyed, and Slave to the Wage are so good.

Eight Songs, seven of which are fantastic, and the last one which is okay. It also features the best guitar solo ever played.
Deep Purple - Machine Head
Such a great album from start to finish. This album nails the classic rock feeling. Also one of the most talented bands out there. Not a weak song on the album, all the songs deserve radio play.
