 Yeah, agreed, it's all subjective. I assume a lot of fan's of 
Fogerty or CCR would think I'm all wet in my assessment 
of "Centerfield".  I admit a bias that I think "hyped comeback 
albums" sometimes are more about the reviewers DESIRE for the great 
comeback then the material. I think The Rolling Stone was very 
guilty of this through the years (when I read it years ago). 
 Thus, that's part of why I'm curious of what are "true" come back 
albums that hold up over time too (subjective I know).  I can see 
New York is considered as such but I like some later things around 
that time more (but again, just my response to it).  
  The prior post brought up Blood on the Tracks..that fits for me.

This doesn't just have to be the major label artists. Maybe the 
Cowsills of a few years ago would fit for example....
