I know this is about specific actual studio albums but man "The Immaculate Collection" which is just a greatest hits from the debut in 1983 up to 1990 is outstanding and one I have put on many times over the years. Not a genre I'm really into but yeah I guess because of my age it was just hard not to be exposed to Madonna so much in the 80's through the culture of MTV and the decade in general.
Madonna is one of those artists where you don't need to feel bad for only owning a 'greatest hits'. There's little in the way of 'deep cuts' to discover, and you get practically all the good stuff on one CD's worth of wall-to-wall bangers.
I'd put The Police in the same category. Phenomenal singles band, but albums full of skippable tracks ranging from the ok to the downright terrible.
