The Beatles, "Abbey Road" (1969)

NICK DERISO: This album, because it has aged better than most of the very late-period Beatles albums, has actually gained popularity over the years.

That's even though, once side one is done, there is very little overt Lennon sprinkled throughout the rest. What there is, however, is important. ("One, two, three, four, five, six, seven ...")

See, if you're a Paul McCartney fan, this remains his brightest, most artistically satisfying, moment -- even thirtysomething years later. However, it's John Lennon's punctuations (and, to a lesser degree, George Harrison's), undoubtably, that make it so.
