8.Montrose - Montrose
9.Tokyo Tapes - Scorpions
10.Double Live Gonzo- Ted Nugent

As you can see I've picked a few live albums,for the groups concerned they are near- perfect anthologies.

well when you say top 10 heavy metal you mean albums from classic heavy metal groups right? i mean no death metal, no power metal, no thrash metal, no doom metal, no black metal and no progressive metal. ok in my opinion the 10 best CLASSIC heavy metal albums according to the records i own and i've listened are:

1) Judas priest-screaming for vengeance

2) iron maiden-powerslave

3) black sabbath-headless cross

4) heavy load-stronger than evil

5) stormwitch-tales of terror

6) accept-metal heart

7) saxon-denim and leather

8) angelwitch-angelwitch

9) demon-taking the world by storm

10) dio-holy diver.

Not all really metal, but it displays what I know, and what I like.

1. Rainbow Rising (Stargazer is beautifull, A Light In The Black is a heavy 10CC song)
2. Metallica - Ride The Lightning (Amazing bass and guitar stuff)
3. AC/DC - The Razor's Edge (sounds somewhat commercial, but I love it)
4. Led Zeppelin - IV (not really metal, but some great tunes there Rock & Roll)
5. Deep Purple - In Rock (Flight Of The Rat, Child In time, Speed King, all classics)
6. Black Sabbath - Symptom Of The Universe (A compilation, but all classic ingredients)
7. Iron Maiden - The Number Of The Beast (classic album hallowed be thy name)
8. Arena - Pride (I'll use any excuse to promote Arena, Fool's Gold, Empire Of A Thousand days, Sirens, maybe not real heavy metal. but really great)
9. Dio - Holy Diver (just included him, because Zargus mentioned him, and I remember giving that album an infinite spin in the good old days)
10. Angra - Holy Land (Carolina IV, download the song from PA, great, some classical influences (Beethoven I think))

 

Like is obvbious from this list I know little metal, know enough for an opinion, but like too little to search really deep

I agree that it's hard to compare 70's "metal" with 80's and beyond metal, but for the sake of brevity, I'll combine 'em all. I also included some prog metal.

1. Black Sabbath - Black Sabbath
2. Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffitti
3. Black Sabbath - Paranoid
4. Megadeth - Rust In Peace (probably my favorite pure thrash album ever )
5. Metallica - Master Of Puppets
6. Deep Purple - Machine Head
7. Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger (grunge metal?)
8. Dream Theater - Awake
9. Dream Theater - Train Of Thought (yep, it's more thrash than prog, but I like it a lot; sometimes I feel Snow Dog and myself are the only ones on this site that do)
10. Opeth - Blackwater Park
