what planet do you guys live on with these?
Outside nick drake, all of these were huge hits commercially. They might have gotten panned but they were commercial successes.
Television Marquee Moon was a commercial flop but is considered one of hte highlights of the 70s these days.
Suicide's suicide is hugely influential but hardly any notice until 10 years later.
You might be able to add Galaxy 500 On fire to this list too. And maybe Spaceman 3's perfect prescription, although that was a modest success.

I'm going with: Ramones - Pleasant Dreams. Only 3 stars at Allmuisc, and it's their best album by far. I own almost all, and it's the only one worth listening to all the way through with no skips.

It was also widely received as a masterpiece and the foundational album of a new form of music -- punk rock. Critics fell over themselves to fellate this album (and it is pretty awesome). It was incredibly well-received for an album released by a bunch of heroin addicts in an insular art music scene unknown outside of NYC at the time.
