[Closed] Which album(s) have you listened to most over the years?

James - Le Petite Mort

Darkness on the Edge of Town, by a mile.

Joshua Tree by U2 is my most played for sure, but is also one I've been aware of since it came out so my first real full album I liked.

Most played in recent times is probably American Idiot by Green Day.

Three, in no particular order:
- The Levellers - Levelling The Land;
- Urban Species - Blanket;
- Nirvana - Unplugged in New York.

All still on regular rotation on the MP3 player.

Probably Let Me Come Over by Buffalo Tom or Copper Blue/Beaster by Sugar

Pink floyd - dark side of the moon & meatloaf - bat out of hell

Has a lot of meaning

Queensryche- Operation Mindcrime.

Without a doubt this,

Close second, not really a proper album though.

In terms of total listening time I reckon it's this:

[img] [/img]

That album was pretty much the soundtrack to my life from 2006 -2009 I know every word. Which means that I'm somewhat chuffed that about 2 hours ago this arrived in the mail.

And a very mery Christmas to you too!

Black Sabbath Live Evil

'It's Too Late to Stop Now' live from the Rainbow, 1973

first album by six by seven, the things we make. one of those where its not instantly great, but every time you hear it theres something new in there.
first saw them in a sheffield pub and it was one of those 'hairs on the back of your neck' moments, ive followed them ever since.

Neil Young Decade. It's never left the Cd player

The Stranglers: "Black and White"

Beatles: "The Beatles"

Rolling Stones: "Exile on Main Street"

Depeche Mode: "Violator"

Wilco: "Yankee Hotel Foxtrot"

Win: "Uh Tears Baby! (a Trash Pop Icon)"

Scritti Politti: "White Bread, Black Beer"

Better than the first album, which is majestic. And not technically an album, but the opening screech of Hallelujah still has the hairs on my neck standing up, and always gets cranked up to 11...

Neil Young Decade. It's never left the Cd player

*Like*

Prince - Purple Rain.
First listen on cassette just after the first showing on telly circa 1990 probably.

Possibly this...
[img] [/img]

But just because it was the only album we had for a long weekend trip to Wales in the late 1990s.

Or more likely this, based more on merit...
[img] [/img]

This century either...

Probably a tie between shai Hulud - hearts once nourished with hope and compassion.

And Morning Again - as tradition dies slowly
[img] ?partner=allrovi.com[/img]

Sound amazing today and a massive influence on me.

Probably...the best of the Beatles.
[img] [/img]

Not forgetting this..

[IMG] [/IMG]

Ooooo, this has been a pretty constant presence

[img] [/img]

Probably this- still listen to it today.

[img] [/img]

I also had this on repeat for about 3 years in my teens, much to the annoyance of all those around me.

[img] [/img]

This too

[img] [/img]

and this still get regularly played.

[img] [/img]

Ooooo, this has been a pretty constant presence

'like'

It's the sound in my head when neil isn't on.

over the years... probably burning blue soul by matt johnson or the last two talk talk albums.

Probably portishead dummy.

Some really, really excellent Albums above!

I've rarely got the attention span for Albums, even before MP3 and now the streaming services sort of killed the concept of putting an album on and listening to it in order in it's entirety I would usually play 3 or 4 of the tracks I liked and then move on to another CD.

There are a few though.

There's a couple of others, but they're 'Best of' compilations and I don't really think they're in the spirit of this - but Queen, Bob Marley, The Who and Dusty Springfield get a spin on my Apple Music quite a lot.

Better than the first album, which is majestic

There are some excellent truly albums here. I know what you're saying about compilations, but I'm exempting Simons choice of New Order Substance from that as it doesn't feel like a 'Best of...'

It actually sounds like a complete album in its own right

Better than the first album, which is majestic

Are you shitting me?

I know its controversial, but I just think the Second Coming is betterer.

The Verve - A Northern Soul
Lo Fi Allstars - How to Operate With a Blown Mind
The Charlatans - Melting Pot (if compilations are allowed)
Orbital - The Brown Album
Asian Dub Foundation - Rafi's Revenge
MC Conrad - Logical Progression
Jean Sibelius - Symphony No 4
Charles Mingus - Pithcanthropus Erectus

Volume 2 led zeppelin
Volume 4 black Sabbath
Sixteen stone - Bush
Ten - pearl jam

I know its controversial, but I just think the Second Coming is betterer.

The Wall - Pink Floyd
Iron Maiden - Iron Maiden
Heaven and Hell - Black Sabbath
Overkill - Motorhead
Permanent Waves - Rush

Leonard Cohen - The Best of

U2 - Under a Blood Red Sky (I haven't played to for years, but the amount I played it when I was a teenager probably puts its annual average at about 100 times a day.)

The The - Soul Mining

The mention of Matt Johnson and The The bring back memories- I used to listen to them a lot.
U2 War and The Joshua Tree were 2 of my most-played albums.
Also The Offspring's Smash.

I would guess...

Manic Street Preachers. The Holy Bible.
Ride. Nowhere.
Julian Cope. Jehovakill.
New Model Army. Thunder and Consolation.
