Post them here. Just recently I listened to Hot August Night by Neil Diamond. My mother loved this album and it’s the only one I recall her playing other than Jesus Christ Superstar original London cast brown sleeve. It seemed every house had Hot August Night in the collection shortly after it came out. Before this Neil was as much a songwriter of hits for others than a performer and 70s superstar.

Framptom Comes Alive. Nobody had his studio albums and suddenly he was on fire after its release.

Cheap Trick Live at Budokan. Fun basement rock and girls loved the band.

I can think of a couple others but am interested in others ideas and genres and eras.

Dickey Betts just passed...RIP. So I'll nominate the greatest rock live album of all time: The Allman Brothers, live at the Filmore East.
Can not top "In Memory of Elisabeth Reed" track. Rare instrumental by them written by him.
