Album which you have listened to most?

We all have favourites and we all keep going back to them every now and then. Some maybe permanently lying next to our systems and have been for years.

Is there an album or two or three at the most which gets most of your attention and is played on your system most often? Not necessarily the best sounding but the one which you are emotionally attached to.

I thought I would ask for a single album but to make it easier for all you may name three of them.

If you have have had the album for more than five years, it qualifies for inclusion here.

The reason I decided to post this message is because I am interested in buying something interesting and if there are only ten people responding it means 30 albums for me to be on the lookout for.

Thanks a lot for your input (if you have read this far I know you will post your three albums also) :-)

The new and current winner is Renee Olstead...left it all all day, the day I bought it.
WOW, for anyone who hasn't heard this girl--go buy the album, she's magic.

Good listening.

Mrdecibel,
Have you caught Jimmy Fallon's Neil Young impersonation?
He does a good job--AND his show is possibly the best thing to happen to Late Night TV USA, since a young Johhny Carson took over in 1962.

As to music I've listened to most?
Without a doubt, the most talented singer (female) in the world today...Renee Olstead--she's remarkable.

Good listening,
Larry

Reading the comments above, I'm reminded and or realizing that Audiogon, undoubtedly has some of the most gentle, tuned in souls in the universe in attendence.
It's almost like being in Vegas, showing wares, meeting new people who share the love of music, AND have a 'jones' for the look, feel and smell of audio gear.

Good listening.

An album that I can't recommend highly enough:
Stacy Kent's "Raconte-Moi".
The title is French and means simply, Tell Me.
I don't speak French...barely get by with English, with a little pig latin thrown in.
But...BUT, this album will melt your soul.

Her French, is seemingly perfect...OK, OK, after the 'I don't speak French'...admission how would I know? Sorry...but it's just so beautiful.
That, and the production quality...WONDERFUL...just WONDERFUL.
She's been on repeat for several days now...I wake up to her, go to sleep to her.
Funny...she's not sexy, buxom like Renee Olstead...but there's this quality about her voice that drives a man to distraction.
Her husband, Tenor man, Jim Tomlinson did the producers job and wow, just wow.

If you haven't heard it, you can youtube jardin D'hiver (?) OK showin' my ignorance here...it means 'something garden'...but if you youtube, pick the one that shows a stylus about to descend on a piece of vinyl...it's wonderful.

Hope you all enjoy...and breaking with Audiogon's no contact rule...if any of you would ever like to contact me...it's:

Best,
