I think that Deep Purple's "In Rock" is likely the greatest hard rock album ever made. First of all, it includes the greatest rock song of all time, IMO, in "Child in Time". Secondly, the rest of the album is just straight-up awesome heavy Blackmore guitar riffs, great Gillan screams, frantic Paice drumming, thick Glover bass-lines, and distorted, brilliant Lord organ playing. The album just never lets up, except for a few quiet moments in "Child in Time". I was listening to "Hard Lovin' Man" last night and I was thinking to myself "Geez, this song was made in 1970! This is one of the heaviest songs I've ever heard!". And then of course, you have other masterful rock songs in "Speed King", "Bloodsucker" and "Flight of the Rat". Other possibilities for greatest hard rock album ever include:

Black Sabbath - Paranoid
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin

What do you guys think?
