In 3-D (Scotti Bros., 1984) by Weird Al Yankovic

Weird Al beat the sophomore jinx of his "novelty act" with this album.  "Eat It" is a great Michael Jackson parody.  "Rye of the Kaiser" is an excellent take on "Eye of the Tiger" and "Nature Trail to Hell" is a funny spoof song styled around ideas in 80s horror flicks.  And although this album, taken as a whole, isn't Al's best work, he still earns major points for going Gold and getting a Grammy with it.
