Which brings up another topic for discussion-- what do you consider to be the best albums all time, side A and side B, from beginning to end, with no bad songs?  The kind you just want to sit down and listen to the whole thing, never wanting to hit that skip button or lift the tone arm to the next track.

I'll throw out The Cars The Cars as a starting point, I love that whole album.  There are many others.

Golderned thread thief,can't stay on point

Sort of along the same lines, Willie Nelson Stardust is a compilation album, but it's so, so good.  Absolutely a full listen for me, and a common one these days since I own the vinyl.  My daughter has gotten really into Willie Nelson lately, so I'm a proud papa.

But I'll forgive you just this one time and after that album you can put on Red Headed Stranger

In fairness, I don't think they've had a song in 15 years that I've loved, so I get it.  to me, that's the Eagles. and In fairness I didn't hear them until they were done, so it's not like they ever had new music for me to find. But at one point, they would have been in the running for my favorite band, and now I'm just so sick of the same dozen songs.  The only song of theirs I still have to listen to is Doolin Dalton.  And it's not that I dislike them, I think. I just honestly listened to five albums cover to cover too many times, and now I just can't do it with them anymore. I did it to myself

We can always spin some Bob Seger/SBB for you

Have not seriously listened to RHCP album since the early 2000’s. 

But as an album I listened to Blood Sugar Sex Magic a lot, and there is a lot of songs on that radio that never get played on the radio that I loved.

London Calling - the Clash

I absolutely love “Wildflowers” from Tim Petty. The whole album, from start to finish.

I know it's sacrilege down here, but man, I can't stand Tom Petty. The music is fine, but that voice... ouch.

[MrNubbz]

Ya well aren't you a fan of Steve Perry? 

[utee94]

Steve Perry has an incredible voice.  

[847badgerfan]

Yep.

My wife can't stand him either.  Strange --- the both of you.

Hmm....more strange that a Vol does like him.... 

I'm now suspicious that you're secretly a Gator.

I mean, so did Jon Bon Jovi and pretty much every other guy that was a great singer 40 years ago and is just old now.  I suspect many of them wrecked their voices smoking cigarettes and other crap.

Although I'll say that I've recently (within the past 4 years) seen both Sammy Hagar and Simon Le Bon live, and both could still kill it onstage.
