101. Dead Can Dance - Within The Realm Of A Dying Sun (1987)
I love pretty much everything Lisa Gerrard and Brendan Perry have done together since their genesis in the early 80's, but
Within The Realm Of A Dying Sun is where they fully transitioned from a post-punk group with "exotic" dream pop leanings to a fully-fledged, larger-than-life sonic architecture. Easily one of the best "World" music albums ever and a huge influence on a lot of bands/artists.
There's a certain time and place for the musical equivalent of a religious experience in a Gothic cathedral, but this is one of the best for that sort of hypothetical occasion.
