Break in period for albums.?


okay, I've been a big B-52's for a long time, my favorite album being Good Stuff.

I bought Funplex when it came out on vinyl. it came with a CD as well.

the first two times I sat down to listen to it I couldn't listen to the whole album. I got bored and put on another album.

So I popped in the CD and played it for back ground music as I was cleaning the house. after listening to it as background music I found I really enjoy the album. how can sit down and listen to it all the way through enjoying it.

I've noticed this for a few other albums as well. I might not like them when I first sit down to listen but after letting them play as back ground music I will sit down and really enjoy the music.

Anyone else out there have this experience?

inquiring minds would like to know. Thank you.

happened to me more than once. Bartok's string quartets, Prokofiev's "The Gambler" and Schoenberg's violin concerto were most recent. usually the music that "grows" on you is going to be the stuff you like most.
