Just an idea I came up with the other day, I was getting averages for all my U2 albums in Excel cos I was waiting for a song to download (dialup) and then I threw some of my other favourite albums. And this is waht I came up with:

1 Achtung Baby 8.83
2 The Joshua Tree 8.36
3 Dark Side of the Moon 8.33
4 Zooropa 8.2
5 All That You Can't Leave Behind 8.17
6 Bat Out of Hell 8.14
7 Rattle and Hum (Studio Only) 8.11
8= War 8.1
8= Boy 8
8= How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb 8
11 The Unforgettable Fire 8
12 Waking up the Neighbors 7.93
13 Pop 7.92
14 Speakerboxxx 7.85
15 Ziggy Stardust 7.82
16 Sgt. Peppers 7.69
17 October 7.64
18 The Love Below 7.45
19 The White Album 6.03
20 Passengers 5.64


I hit the limit at 20 albums, including all U2's. I originally had UABRS in there, but it was a bit unfair as it would have been first or second because all the live versions are great. I was surprised Rattle and Hum was so high, and Pop so low, and TLB so low, I love that album.
 
I think he listed all the songs of the albums in Excel, gave the songs a rating from 1 to 10, and then let Excel calculate the average.

and now he wants us to do the same. :)
 
Know what you mean about the lazy bit, but here are my top ten from all time.
1-Achtung Baby-U2
2-Stories From the City, Stories From the Sea-P J Harvey
3-Love Is Hell-Ryan Adams
4-Puressence-Only Forever (UK band that were big in Italy a while but please dont let that put you off. If you like Achtung Baby you will love this.
5-In Search Of-N.E.R.D
6-Zooropa-U2
7-The Bends-Radiohead
8-By the Way-Red Hot Chilli Peppers
9-Pop-U2
10-The Joshua Tree-U2

Honourable mention to Get Ready by New Order.
