What about Sandanista by the Clash? While parts of it
are indeed brilliant, I think even the most diehard
Clash fan would admit there's more than a bit of
rubbish there as well. As a 2 lp set it would've come
close to equaling London Calling as their best. As
released, it usually falls near the bottom in a
ranking of their albums.
-------------------
Other than live and compilations, there hasn't been
many triple albums but for some reason they're all
brilliant. Other than the aforementioned Prince
these come to mind:
George Harrison's - All Things Must Pass, by far the
best solo Beatle record.
Magnetic Fields - 69 Love Songs, a magnificent
sprawling collection of love songs from Joni fan
Stephen Merritt.
