Gonna be a tossup, because I was listening to two in heavy rotation on casette. The first was a couple of years old at that point, Alabama’s Mountain Music. Still a great album.
The other was essentially brand new, Joan Jett’s Glorious Results of a Misspent Youth, again on cassette.
My parents had the Alabama on vinyl, which got worn the hell out by the time I got the tape. The Joan Jett wasn’t something they had gotten for themselves until after I bought it with birthday money at the same time as the Alabama tape. Then they got it on vinyl.
I still listen to both albums in their entirety here and there, and have multiple songs from each in multiple playlists.
I think, at the time, I probably favored GROAMY (what a horrible initialism lol) a bit most of the time, but it would have been a narrow margin. As full albums I favor Mountain Music now, it’s just more consistently good songs across the album. Not that Jett’s album has any stinkers, it doesn’t; it’s just that Alabama really nailed every track.
Ten?

And yes, I’m fucking old lol
Not to be a pedant but since you can pronounce it as a word it’s an acronym, not an initialism.
If you can call that a word, sure, I guess. Wouldn’t have thought of it like that :)
