--------------------------------------------------------
Led Zeppelin has 6 albums.
Black Sabbath has 5 albums
AC/DC, Pink Floyd, Deep Purple, Rolling Stones and Beatles have 4 each
Free, Who, Genesis, Thin Lizzy and Yes have 3 each

Looking at this it seems like Free and Thin Lizzy are massively
underrated.

100 Greatest British Rock Album Ever (April 2006)

"Albums voted for must be British or Irish. We're considering bands
British if their core members/creative hub would qualify to play for a
national football team. By this reasoning, Jimi Hendrix does not
qualify, but AC/DC, with Scottish born Angus, Malcolm & Bon - and
Geordie Brian J - do. No Live albums or best of's were eligible for
the poll. Compiled by consulting a panel of experts: rock DJs, rock
critics, rock photographers, rock singers, etc."
