Pop acts have been releasing double albums since Bob Dylan's Blonde on Blonde in 1966. There have been countless classics since then, from The White Album by the Beatles all the way to Reflektor by Arcade Fire.
So we have a question for you: What is your favorite double album? We're going to count anything that was originally released on two vinyl records or two CDs. (Some releases, like London Calling and Exile on Main Street were two records, but fit onto a single CD. Those will obviously count.) There's a ton to pick from, including Pink Floyd's The Wall, Genesis' The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway and OutKast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below.

Love them-- of course, my avatar kind of gives that away. 
STILL kicks butt!!!
Townshend is brilliant.
The Stones best.
Something along the lines of "It's a lot to digest, but I think people will find SOMETHING they like on it."
There is a core set of albums...Let It Bleed, Get Yer Ya Yas Out, Sticky Fingers, and Exile...that represent, for me, the Stones at their peak.
By the time of "Goats Head Soup" they were already turning into something else.
By the time of "Only Rock & Roll," they had already turned into the Ron Wood Stones, just waiting for Ron to show up.
Led Zeppelin, so I would have to say, "The Song Remains the Same".
Like most Led Zeppelin fans I enjoyed "Song" when it was released, but after "West" came out, I preferred it.
Featuring a then relatively unknown 20 year old guitarist named Peter Frampton and some of the the best vocals from Steve Marriottt. The 25 minute complete LP side Dr. John take on "I Walk On Gilded Splinters" is unreal.
...the "Leaving Trunk" insert in "Gilded Splinters." My personal opinion is that the single greatest vocal performance of Steve Marriott's career came when he split the sky on the line "I'm going back to Memphis babe, where I'll have much better luck..."
Stellar album, but only 3 sides had music, the 4th side was smooth vinyl.
followed by "Layla and other Assorted Love Songs" 
I LOVED the first one...never really cared for "Axis." I always felt that of there was a single Hendrix album that had the greatest influence on Prince, "Axis" had to be it. But "Ladyland" was a MONSTER. I see the first three albums and "Band of Gypsys" as the "official" Hendrix catalog. I've listened to pretty much every other album that followed his passing but NONE of them equal the albums HE had a hand in assembling.
Even "Cry of Love" which turned into "Voodoo Soup" which turned into "First Rays Of The New Rising Sun"...the "4th studio album" he was working on at the time of his death...nice stuff on it, but who KNOWS what the hell THAT one would have sounded like after he had final say?
Highlights: "in The Cage", 'The Carpet Crawlers".
(Thanks, guys. I didn't want to piss away my 10,000th post in a gun thread....)
Normally, I wouldn't do this, but 
Those who know the album, know what I mean.

All of these are pretty good choices, at least the ones I've heard of.
