Springsteen's masterpiece "Darkness on the Edge of Town"

 

Possibly ...

Pet Sounds.

 

seen and observed. : )

 

stereo or mono?

 

there are no sides on my CD copy. I especially like that convenience...

 

back in 1969 when I first heard their debut album i was blown away...It seems most prefer Fun House...

 

Smashing Pumpkins - Siamese Dream

 

Al Stewart Year of the Cat

 

A bit of a longer answer: for one, although I have used song shuffle, too, ever since it was first a practical option (with the arrival of changers), whenever I play an album I always play the whole album--I never skip tracks. I've always played through every album I own by an artist before I play one again (and more often than not I have complete discographies). And I've always cycled through artists in some sort of order, too.

I don't play through every artist an equal amount --I've always had rotation levels of some sort, but my highest rotation has always had a large number of artists.

In a nutshell, I've always listened to music systematically in a way guaranteed to maximize variety while still slightly biasing a large pool of favorite artists, so there's no way for me to answer. As another person said above, I organize my music listening more like it's a "chore," and I've always done that, but because I enjoy the results of it.

 

I listened to it today and realized it's been years since. My OG copy is worn and needs replaced, has a skip right at the beginning. This is one of those albums I "over listened" to and burnt out on so the recent More Blood,More Tracks isn't something I'm chomping at the bit to git. I'll pick it up in due time but first I need an upgrade of the OG. I know there's threads and opinions a plenty already but I'm open right now to receive due to this mornings discovery of my poor old OG.

Edit in...the music sounds fresh to me this morning and I'm loving it Clangy,snappy acoustic guitar sounds real to me. Think I'll go snap and clang a bit on my own wood box.

 

Probably

Bob Lind - Don't Be Concerned

which I have had in various formats since I first started taking interest in popular music.

 

REM Murmur or the Throwing Muses S/T.

 

Grateful Dead, American Beauty

 

The REO Speedwagon trilogy of Tuna Fish, Hi Infidelity and Good Trouble or Lindisfarne's Nicely Out Of Tune, I reckon.

 

Stop Making Sense
Rubber Soul
Station to Station

I'd like to think it was one of those but it's probably some Belinda Carlisle album or some other shameful guilty pleasure.

 

For me. Pink Floyd
Wish You Were Here vinyl been playing since I was 10 yrs back in 1975, still do an will continue, a classic album played many times all through..

 

In all honesty no idea but pretty near the top of the list I’d say

Hounds of Love
Station to Station
Songs From The Big Chair
A Secret Wish

 

Christopher Cross - Christopher Cross (really)
Quadrophenia
Who's Next
Rubber Soul
Revolver
Chicago V
Tapestry
What Were Once Vices, Are Now Habits
Captain and Me
Year of the Cat
Time Passages

 

Maybe Starless & Bible Black, Red, UK, Oxygene, Equinoxe, Force Majeure, Enigmatic Ocean, Who's Next, You Can't Argue With A Sick Mind

 

Too bad discs don't have built-in counters. I'd be interested to know myself. During the late 60s and early 70s, it was undoubtedly the Beatles and their first solos records. But after that, as I moved on to other favorites, their records took over, depending on how obsessed I eventually became (Cooper, Sabbath, Zeppelin, etc.). I've eventually come full circle, with the Beatles back in front of the rotation, though I am not sure which album I've played most; maybe Abbey Road.

 

John Philips - Wolfking of LA

 

I don't really know but I guess it's probably one of the Beatles albums and probably "Sgt. Pepper's".
