Evita and Phantom of the Opera are probably his best works.  I'm not a huge ALW fan, but I still enjoy these two shows. Jesus Christ Superstar is good too, but I still find that it always leaves me cold.

I have seen School of Rock twice. I totally agree. It does JAM for sure. I also love how they expanded on the kids lives and why they were so effected by Dewey. It makes the ending really have meaning for them that the movie didn't.

It's gonna be a happy new year.......RENT

I feel like CATS hasn't been mentioned enough on this thread. I vote CATS.

Jesus Christ Superstar. Evita isn't one of my personal favs, but I admire it and agree it should be prioritized. Sunset Boulevard. And Song and Dance, as others have said, is lovely, and reveals a less bombastic ALW.

Why do you feel guilty about liking Sunset Boulevard?

I really do enjoy ALW. The only shows of his I just can't get into are The Woman in White and Love Never Dies. 

Other than those I have seen and/or listened to everything he's wtitten and love them all. 

Favorites: School of Rock, Evita,Whistle Down the Wind, Sunset Boulevard, Aspects of Love, and Starlight Express (my guilty pleasure).
