Which albums do you enjoy listening to front to back?

edited February 2019 in Other

This can pertain to any genre. What albums do you consider so good that you can't help listen to them front to back? (I.E. albums where you don't skip any tracks.)

Here are my personal picks...

-Justice - †
-Justice - Horsepower
-Sash - S4! Sash!
-Michael Jackson - Thriller
-Brian Eno - Music for Airports
-Brian Eno - Thursday Afternoon (okay, it's one track only, but it is so good!)
-BT - This Binary Universe
-Carly Rae Jepsen - Emotion
-Paul Van Dyk - Out There and Back
-Paul Van Dyk - Reflections
-Don Diablo - Future
-Daft Punk - Random Access Memories
-Giorgio Moroder - Déjà Vu
-Skrillex - Recess (his first truly creative sonic endeavor since Nice Sprites and hasn't been able to match it since, especially that bizarre "Doompy Poomp" track)

I'd add Brian Eno's "Reflections" on here, but it's a neverending album, so no real front to back, so it gets an honourary mention. :lol: I'd have also added Jean-Michel Jarre's "Waiting for Cousteau", because the titular track is a massive ambient masterpiece, but the Calypso tracks that precede the titular track are pretty blasé.

So, what are your "must listen front to back" albums? :)

    I tried listening to Out There and Back by PVD a few months ago (listened to that album a lot early 2000s) but I found it sounded very dated now.

    You mean "vintage". ;) LOL! Yeah, it's very older fashioned by now. I'll give the DJ Shadow album a shot as well as good ol' Public Enemy. Lots of great choices to help expand my musical palette.

  • Ziggy Stardust. Rare album where the whole is far greater than the sum of its parts (and it’s parts are incredible). Hot take, I know 😊

    Love it to Death by Alice Cooper. Most under appreciated rock album of all time.

    Berlin by Lou Reed. Will utterly destroy you. Caution advised.

    All very good choices and in my personal cd collection except the last one you named which I can't even mention because of my overall disdain for said band...😁 Are you sure about that one? Surely you're mistaken.

    the live via isdn radio shows were amazing

    Love Lifeforms, ISDN and especially the Cascade single/remixes. All of these certainly fit the thread for me.

    I agree that they might not fit in the collection but man - i love that band. I saw them life and had VIP tickets. It was awesome. I have all their albums. Songwriting is marvelous. I am sorry to destroy you with this ;)

    But i also love some older works from "Einstürzende Neubauten" so there are some extensions to both ends of that scale :)

  • None: Too much music everywhere I go . Every Starbucks , every coffee shop, restaurant, every store . I’d love to get some silence back to back but it almost never happens. Disclaimer : I’m over 60 and I’ve heard it all twice . I love this forum and iOS though and spend way more time here than I do on Spotify . I love music but I feel as if I’ve internalized it at this point . I lived through the very exciting times where most of what you’re hearing today was created . I was there.. Hendrix etc. I saw it all.
