Hmm, interesting question Bernhard.  What do we mean when we judge a period?
Recording output? Stage work? Or both?  If, say, Warrior is your favourite
album but the first gig you saw was Black Sword how can the period be
judged?  As HW is such an audio visual experience you can't even get there
from just listening to tapes.

But, recording wise:

76/77 (am I the only person who views Astounding Sounds as the bands finest
hour/most neglected work?)

Live:

89/91 (which proves the point. 1990 Space Bandits album has it's moments but
not great, Space Bandits tour - wonderful)
