Talk Talk & David Bowie are the first that come to mind.
Not sure whether I'd call it my favourite of them (they have loads of great stuff) but Art Zoyd's Phase V is a beast like hardly any other. It's 5 CDs but nonetheless was a regular release, not a compilation as which it is confusingly classified here. (OK, it was put together out of to some extent heterogeneous material from the previous 5 years, but all of it was originally released in that box.)

How many instances can you think of where a band's last (or latest) album surprisingly turns out to be their "best" album?

These are some of my 5-star favourites:-

Jan Akkerman - Close Beauty (2019)
Brian Auger - Retrospection (2020)
Curved Air - The Curved Air Family Album (2019)
Eloy - The Vision, the Sword & the Pyre - Part II (2019)
Finch - Galleons of Passion (1977)
Greenslade - The Full Edition Live (2001)
IQ - Resistance (2019)
Karnataka - Secrets of Angels (2015)
Jon Lord - Concerto for Symphony & Orchestra (2012)
Mostly Autumn - Graveyard Star (2021)
Renaissance - A Symphonic Journey (2018)
Roxy Music - Avalon (1982)
Roger Waters - Us + Them (2020)
Yes - The Quest (2021)

Non-prog favourite:-

Peter Frampton - Frmapton Forgets the Words (2021)


I still haven't heard The Quest by Yes, so I may have to add that long-awaited album to my list later. Wink
