If there was only ONE album/cd/release you can listen to, over and over.............


Your " best ever " recording, which has likely been discussed ad nauseam, would you select, say, if given a choice of only one ( whatever the scenario would be; stranded on an island, locked up in isolation, all music gone, but this one ). As hard as this is, as there are so many to choose from, I have selected " A Tribute To Jack Johnson ", by the esteemed Miles Davis ( 1992 Columbia version ). I have selected this, specifically for the performances, as I do with all of my listening. The playing.....the musicianship.....the arrangement.....the story, set to music, by the esteemed M.D.. And, my system delivers the message, so I feel proud of my set up. What can I say ? I hope everyone well, and, ENJOY ! Always, MrD.

Abbey Road - The Beatles, just slightly ahead of Astral Weeks.

There's an awful lot going on in that album.

I've got a copy of the Gold CD but the 2003 Blonde on Blonde is quite good too.

Better would be picking 12-14 individual songs to make one "album" of favs that would be more listenable over time.

 

Yes, this is what I usually do.

There aren't many albums I can sit through in one listen more than a couple of times. Probably no more than 10 - 12 that never get stale.

 

Seeing DSOTM mentioned so many times on this thread makes me want to give it another spin.
