Re: Bands where one album is leagues above the rest of their output....

Bringing it back to the MR genre and classic era I would say Badlands.
Hey I liked Voodoo Highway and know there's some that rate that sophomore as much as sometimes higher than the self titled debut, but personally thought they went too swampy blues with that one and stepped too far away from their classic debut and lost something alongthe way.
I know Jake wanted to go that route while Gillan allegedly wanted stick with the slicker more mainstream style of the debut and ya know I wish they had. As much as I dug and still dig Voodoo Highway (and their 3rd), that debut was just something really special and IMO yes leagues above the sophomore...
