Albums you've listened to the most

Thanks for clarifying. First off, I have seen that album.........and asked my guy all about it. Fascinating stuff. 

 

As for my vinyl that I've listened to the most? I've only had them for nearly two years now, so many of your albums already listed would count, but not for vinyl.

 

I'd say:

 

Pink Floyd, DSOTM

Elton John, Madman Across the Water

Rolling Stones, Exile on Main Street

Black Crowes, Southern Harmony

Buckingham-Nicks (self titled, the album they recorded in Sound City when Mic Fleetwood discovered them)

David Bowie, Ziggy Stardust

Neil Young, Hitchhiker

Santana, Abraxas

Grateful Dead, Europe '72

Supertramp, Breakfast in America (honestly, the best-sounding album out of them all that I own.)

 

There are SO many more that I've heard WAY more, but not on vinyl. 

 

Audio Technica AT-LP120 turntable, with an AT VM540ML cartridge.

I'm not the OP so I don't know what he meant... I just said that I'm going with vinyl. 

 

This may be unpopular but I never liked Exile on Main Street... it just never clicked with me although I've had it dozens of times. Stones stuff before and after but not that one.

I used to think Sticky Fingers was the their best work. Then I got studio monitor headphones and listened to Exile on vinyl through those......and that was all she wrote. Also, Quadrophenia on headphones is DOPE.

Black Keys - The Big Come Up (with the exception of 240 Years Before Your Time, which is a few minutes of nonsense and 20 minutes of dead air)

The Revivalists - Men Amongst Mountains 

Soundgarden - Bad Motorfinger

Any Beastie Boys, Rage Against the Machine, or Nirvana album 

Foo Fighters - Sonic Highway 

Nine Inch Nails - Pretty Hate Machine or Broken

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood, Sugar, Sex, Magic

Social Distortion - White Light, White Heat, White Trash

Stone Temple Pilots - Core

Alice in Chains - Facelift

 

Not all recent or often, but when I listen to them it’s typically the whole album start to finish

I like Metamorphosis quite a bit... but everything other than EOMS up to Some Girls is excellent here. Have Quadrophenia on CD in the car... listen to it around once a month, Loud. Genius Lp. Lately I've noticed that half of it is the album and the other half is Moon's drumming... dude was a monster on the kit.

 

If you like Stones music... Rico does as well... this is a good listen:

Man, the people responding in this thread are AWESOME music lovers.

This isn't a top-10 album in terms of listen time, but it's my FAVORITE physical album I own. I paid way too much for it, and I have the special clear vinyl with smoke inlays. The way it opens and how it looks is unparalleled. And the music is dope. (File photos below, not mine)

I’d need a time machine to recall the last time I listened to an entire album.

I love the sound of the needle..my albums are banged up but listenable.Target sells players..won't help the old 45's /lp's but it gives you that chance to go back back in time..

last I played..Sunday evening..Rush 212.I put the plastic insert in..(bride did)..she played my Sharona (horrible)..Saturday Night(Bay City Rollers)..brutal song.

Cars.. "Since your gone".Even with my back..we danced light.

Yes, yes I can.

 

It's REALLY weird to have good music, and then hear the Muppet vocals.......I never thought Jim Henson's voice would come through a turntable in my apartment, at age 41. But it has.

i love trash (can take on more connotations since then)

 

and

 

Big Bird's song singing out the alphabet still rings through my mind when tired from the rat race

I already named my no.1 and no. 2.

 

No. 3: Appetite for Destruction. I know every single word to every song on that album. 

 

This is not a favorites question. But if it was...I'd say Master of Puppets and Dark Side of the Moon.

 

It is impossible though for me to name a favorite band, album, artist, etc...I get super amped when I here Quiet Riot on the radio! Many other songs/bands too! Have a Drink on Me nearly blows my speakers every time!

If you're talking album sides... the Stones Aftermath (US), side 2.

 

Album sides. What's that?

 

If it's album sides, I'd still stick with Zappa/Apostrophe side 1 as a fave but Zeppelin/Zoso side 1 is the GOAT.

That is really cool and part of what makes vinyl so great!  I've got Physical Graffiti, Some Girls, In Through the Out Door....and a few other cool LPs.  I love all the artwork on the liner notes on American Prayer

Hardly ever played side 2 of Apostrophe, but side 1 is tremendous, played that more than any other Zappa.

 

Side 1 of Zoso is great, love Black Dog & especially Rock and Roll, but When The Levee Breaks is my fav on it, so that doesn't work for me.

More than any other Zappa except maybe for Billy The Mountain, side 1 of Just Another Band From LA. I'm playing it again now, serious drugs there.

Billy is an end to end must listen. Haven't indulged in a while. 

 

Cool thing about this thread is I revisited the Wall...and now Billy (who had two caves for eyes and a cliff for a mouth that would go up and down...) is next.

This was a couple of months earlier... Mark asking if she's wearing panties. Wonder how much she loved the Turtles during the Next 4 years.

Yeah, I was just looking at the two sides.  Tough call on which is better.  Four Sticks and When the Levee Breaks make me lean toward side 2.  But side 1 is solid.  Great album.

For my fav LZ side, I would pick Physical Graffiti side 2 by a nose over PG side 1.

This topic (Zep sides) could easily consume me.  Zep 4 side 2 is tough to beat.  But I'm a big Zep 3 fan and I'll give the nod to Zep 3 side 1.

I think it's my favorite Zep album.  Side 2 is beautiful.  The entire album was such a separation from the first two.  Brilliant, really.

For me, it starts off good, but ends weakly. Gallows Pole is great, Tangerine is tremendous. Never been a fan of That's The Way though (LZ3 or live), Br Stomp is good, but Roy Harper is skippable. JMO.

Roy Harper is definitely skippable.  I love That's the Way, though.  I'll never understand how Hey, Hey What Can I Do? didn't make it onto the album.  If they'd replaced Roy Harper with What Can I Do?, we're looking at a phenomenal side.

 

It's like Revolution #9 on the White Album.  Total junk and it took a lot of real estate.  I'm certain there were a couple great tunes that were left off that could have replaced that crap.
