One that hasn't been mentioned yet: Focus 3
GYBE! - Lift Your...
GG - Playing The Fool
Floyd - Umma Gumma
The Softs - Third
Generally though, double albums tend to be pushing it. TFK's Unfold The Future springs to mind. There was a mind-blowing single disc in there somewhere, we got a flabby double one instead.

Ah, the innocence of youth! 
They were double LP's in their original format, but now fit on a single CD.
