Is there a more solid tracklist of any album in history?

'Revolver' has Good Day Sunshine and Yellow Submarine
'OK Computer' has Fitter Happier
'Sgt. Peppers' has Within You Without You,When I'm 64,Good Morning Good Morning,Sgt. Peppers(Reprise) etc.

But Marquee Moon never goes down from that high level all the way through - there are no throwaway tracks

Re: Best

I like Fitter Happier for non-musical reasons. It makes the album better by it's presence.

I'd put Blonde on Blonde, Exile on Main St, Ziggy Stardust, Pet Sounds, My Aim Is True, Daydream Nation, Surfer Rosa, Queen Is Dead, and probably a few others all well above Marquee Moon in overall quality and in the same class of consistency.

funeral
blood on the tracks
Kid A
After the gold rush
Astral weeks
Remain IN Light
Loveless
Pink Moon
Let it Bleed
Abby Road
Ys
Doolittle
Blue

All of those albums I rank higher on my personal list because I feel they have better tracklists

Marquee Moon is great though. It will always be in my top 20
