Australian ambient artist Steve Roach has about 150 albums:
http://steveroach.com/Music/discography.php?query=
Plus, the guest appearances on other albums. I see that some entries in that list are duplicates/re-releases, so maybe the "real" number is around 130. On the other hand, he also likes to record 4-hour long albums like "Mystic Chords & Sacred Spaces". Many of his records are relatively same-y though, but occasionally, there are gems and new ideas to be found. I guess electronic ambient artists are pretty high on such a list. Tangerine Dream also has tons of albums, or their collaborator Klaus Schulze.
I guess jazz artists don't count because at some level of fame every live appearance sees a studio release, and these are not really studio albums.

WoW. Th
James Last has left the world at 76
and then ten years later at 86.
Hmm, dying twice is quite a feat I suppose
86 is probably the number of chart albums he had as well.
Number of albums 65. Changed his name from Hans to sound less German. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-33075466. Thank providence for the BBC.
In Germany, he even had 115 albums in the charts. It's the record.

His biggest claim to fame is probably producing/"engineering" John Lennon's "Imagine" album. Though he also worked with lots of other artists.

http://www.huffingtonpost.de/2015/06/08/paul-sahner-gestorben_n_7532606.html (link in german)
His speciality was to make his guests confess private secrets. His interview with then-german minister of defense Rudolf Scharping, half-naked at and in a swimming-pool, showing him kissing and embracing his aristocrat girlfriend, led to his (Scharping's) resignation.

After he got convicted, the verdict was overturned and now...the case is being taken up again:
I guess this trial is very much indicative of the power struggle between the old military guard and the deposed government of the Halibut brotherhood.

But apparently, the prognosis is good.
Some people on twitter however think that the cancer is "karma" for his coverage of the Scottish independence vote:
Nick Robinson has successful surgery, will start chemotherapy now:

Nick Robinson's cancer is "worse than feared", though the prognosis is still "good":
