Since most people that bought Dark Side of the Moon and/or The Wall never bought any other Pink Floyd albums, and perhaps aren't "true fans", which album acquisition pushes them over that threshold?

No talking, just vote.

I believe that would make A Saucerful of Secrets the album in question. Fun fact: it didn't appear on the Billboard 200 until...April 2019, the same month I saw Nick Mason's Saucerful of Secrets twice.

I would say Animals. I suppose it's just one step beyond the more comfortable favourites.

(Stretching the definition of 'true fan' a bit - maybe 'Omayyad?')
