And what was it?
Occasionally, in this age of Spotify playlists, and shuffle, on the rare occasions I have the luxury todo so, I'll have a trip down memory lane and shove Dark Side of the Moon or Screamadelica on, but I just Downloaded Public Service Broadcasting - the Race For Space - and listened to it from start to finish, while pottering around in the kitchen making a roast. It was absolutely bloody brilliant!! All the better for feeling like an album rather than a collection of tunes.
I need to do this more often. Next one up is the Streets - a Grand Don't Come for Free - because that has a proper narrative.
What should I listen to after that? What's you recomendation then? Full albums only. The newer the better.
GO!
Bing Crosby's Christmas album, last Christmas. Seriously.
Spotify and Youtube have given me ADHD when it comes to music.
Actually, that's not exactly true. I will listen to an entire classical or jazz album all the way through. I just love to DJ rock/pop music when I am writing at at the kitchen table, so I NEVER make it through an entire album anymore.
New order - Music complete. 1st one in ages though!
Friday at work. Stone Roses first album.
Fuzz II on Friday at work. Along with killing jokes new album and cancer bats hail destroyer. Had a load of CAD to do.
Often listen to stuff at home. I can't be arsed to compile playlists or wotnot. Pick an album press play.
Listened to my vinyl version of sleeps holy mountain and the daughters royal blood on Wed night.
quite often on Spotify, last one was probably Rush, Signals....
Dark Side of the Moon is an album I always listen to all the way through, but more recently was Radiohead 01 10 where you alternate tracks from OK Computer and In Rainbows to make one big album. That was worth it (youtube can help here)
The new Libertines album. It's the first thing in years I keep going back to.
The new Richard Hawley album seems good, but I only got half way through earlier
I've listened to 3 today.
I love you Honeybear by Father John Misty, Postcards from Ursa Minor by Will Varley (several times) and The Bones Of What You Believe by CHVRCHES.
If you like A Grand Don't Come for Free then try "Everybody Down" by Kate Tempest. Similar style and a single narrative thread throughout the album.
I am old, so tend to still view albums as a collection of songs to be listened to in order from start to finish.
Slade Alive on vinyl (so I had to turn it over) about a month ago.
Got the War Rooms EP on now. I fancy the New Order and the Libertines. I bloody love them both. Good call!
Keep em coming!
quite often as i hate random switching back and forth through music styles .....
Most albums have undertones of telling a story as well so many songs go better in an album situation
MuppetWrangler - I love Kate Tempest. Saw her live earlier this year. Best gig I've been to in years! She's amazing!
A couple of weeks ago - Public Service Broadcasting

Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not
I listened to two last night, two Friday, and three on Thursday; last night it was Paper Aeroplanes, Friday Guy Garvey and Shawn Colvin's new albums, and Thursday Guy Garvey, Shawn Colvin and Patty Griffin.
If I'm out with the pod or phone, they're always on shuffle, but if I'm at home, then I select albums on the computer and play them right through on the hifi.
As often as I can.
Today I've listened to 3 complete albums.
Art Pepper - Straight Life
Dave Brubeck - Giants of Jazz compilation
G Love and Special Sauce - Sugar
And some Lou Donaldson
Leftfield - Leftism quite often.
Just finished Squeeze's greatest hits and half way through Massive Attack's Blue Lines. To complete the picture, wood burner is on, drinking a cheeky Fidencio red sourced for under 3 euros and had a 45km club mtb ride in clear blue skies this morning. Did I mention I was in Cataluna 😉
What's the story (morning glory)? A few weeks ago. 50 minutes of aural pleasure
This afternoon - Robert Johnson The Complete Recordings
Josh T Pearson Last of the Country Gentlemen (My daughter plays cello on this album)
Technique by New Order a few weeks ago in the car. I don't have an IPod, MP3 etc, so if I listen to music it will be a CD in the car on a long journey. I tried listening to a Spiritualized album whilst driving from Aberdeen to Manchester after a night shift......lasted about 5 minutes before I realised it was not a good idea.
Can't help you with the new stuff though, I stopped listening to new bands in about 1996.
For some strange reason my pic didn't show up ^^, but anyhoos' for me there is nothing better than coming in from a ride, shower and something to eat then crash on the sofa listening to an album.. yesterday was this..

Today:
"Kimono my House" and "Lil' Beethoven", both by Sparks.
About 75% of "Screamadelica" just afterwards, then ran out of time.
Yesterday, "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot" and "Homework".
Keep going back to Air - Moon Safari and Les Rhythmes Digitales - Darkdancer. There's not a bad tune on either of them.
Today I've listened to the Darkness' new one - Last Of Our Kind. It's properly superb 80's rock done right.
I'm still [i]old school[/i] with my listening tastes as i don't have/use spotify or streaming services so i tend to pick something that matches my mood or state of mind and play it through it's entirety, last night i sat and listened to [i]Nils Frahm - Solo[/i], [i]Andy Stott - We Stay Together[/i] and i drifted off to sleep with an oldie (but one of the most sublime compilation albums of all time) [i]Nick Warren - Back To Mine[/i]
This afternoon whilst out on a bimble with the bike & dog i worked through [i]Chvrches - Every Open Eye[/i], [i]Sexwitch - Sexwitch[/i] (natasha kahn/dan carey/toy) and i brought myself back down with [i]Tunng - Live at The BBC[/i]
It helps that i live by myself so i can listen to whatever i like/whenever i like.
I only listen to cds and don't have an ipod or any stored music so I always listen to whole albums
last night, in the car, via a cd player (remember them?)
rumours, fleetwood mac.
and it still sounds ****in great.
Just now, finishing listening to Girls, Girls, Girls by Motley Crue. Often listen to full albums as if the radio is doing my head in driving the van I'll put a cd on and leave it be
1D's new album.
All killer, no filler.
I bought Post War Glamour Girls album ( blue vinyl ) on Friday - played it all the way through .....excellent !
Err - today, Presidents of the United States of America. Pretty much their whole back catalogue has been played in the back ground today.
Saturday was Dave Pearce - Trance anthems
Friday was Saxon - St Georges day sacrifice (disc 2, inc an awesome version of Princess of the Night).
Thursday was disc 1 of the above.
Wednesday was Bloc Party - weekend in the city
Tuesday.... Err either James or more saxon.
earlier today, The Adolescents LP.

Last week on the tube - Rudimental, We The Generation.
Yesterday. Was tidying up in the office/study/den/games room and thought I'd actually use the turntable I set up in there when we moved in.
Got through a few 90s gems on vinyl. Nowhere. Peggy Suicide. Sebastopol Road. Finished up with Who Cares Wins.
Prodigy: '[url= https://itunes.apple.com/gb/album/the-day-is-my-enemy/id951064864 ]The Day is My Enemy[/url]'
About 20 minutes ago while making dinner - Get to Heaven by Everything Everything.
Kasabian 48:13 back when it was released so June 2014
[i]Get to Heaven by Everything Everything.[/i]
went to see them on Friday, they were bloody amazing!
last full album would be that then as they did all of it (not in the same order), does that count?
other than that, the Staves, If I Was, on Wednesday
I often play whole albums right through, while on trains or driving, but the last one I actually sat and listened to all the way through would be Ghostpoet, Shedding Skin.
Yesterday, on youtube obvs 😉
The Strokes; Is this it.
"The Weight of Your Love" Editors
