Led Zeppelin IIIn my expert opinion, this comes down to Zep II and Nevermind. Hard for me to say which was more influential...Zep II basically was the blueprint for an entire genre of music and Nevermind is the most important rock record of the past 30 years. I went with personal taste for the tie breaker.
Some notable honorary mentions...
The Band - The Band
Countdown to Ecstasy - Steely Dan
Freewheelin' Bob Dylan (not really a rock record though)
Rolling Stones - 12 x 5
Rumors - Fleetwood Mac (they basically were a whole new band in 1975 just with the same name)
Imagine - John Lennon
Odelay - Beck

The queen of diamonds let you down,
She was just an empty fable
The queen of hearts you say you never met
Your twisted fate has found you out
And it's fin'lly turned the tables
Stole your dreams and paid you with regret -

Neil Young - Everybody Knows this is NowhereDirt would win, but they released at least one EP between facelift and dirt. Maybe two I can't remember for sure.
Ride the lightning would win, but I didn't feel like voting for it.
Many good candidate albums on the list, but I'm going with Neil because fuck this board and the generic frat boy fucktard tastes that pervade it. -

She can't get even arrested in Hollywood anymore since Beatrix snatched out her other eye. Still not bad looking though.PurpleThrobber said:

Personally I like The Tubes Completion Backwards Principle.

Neil Young - Everybody Knows this is Nowhere
Well that's true. I think of jar of flies as a full length, standalone album but not so much Sap. I think JOF came after dirt too, so my whole statement was nonsense in retrospect.YellowSnow said:

They felt pretty unique and original from about 1972-75. Then the category they occupied got pretty full and it's hard to remember how fresh they felt in those early years.YellowSnow said:
