Share albums where EVERY SINGLE song is good
It rarely happens to me, but in a pile of records I bought over the summer I
found one with no cover. Shocking Blue’s 2nd album. 'At Home' (I’m your Venus is on it).
Even most Beatles albums have at least one song I could pass on, but not this one. Horrible fidelity, scratched to hell, but damn...
So I’d love to hear of other records that you all could suggest.
All submitted in my humble opinion: Peter Frampton - Fingerprints Snarky Puppy - Culcha Vulcha Mick Jagger - She's The Boss Jeff Beck - Orange Album Elton John - Tumbleweed Connection The Band - Stage Fright Tom Scott - Tom Cat Santana - Caravanserai Rolling Stones - Sticky Fingers and Let it Bleed Doobie Brothers - Stampede Steely Dan - Pretzel Logic Jethro Tull - Stand Up The Who - Who's Next Honorable Mention - The Allman Brothers Live at the Fillmore East

@mitchagain "A Space in Time" - Good mention. Not a bad song at all. |
There have been many discussions on here about why audiophilia is dying. This thread is an interesting glimpse into the reason (or symptom). The average album age looks to be about 45 - 50 years. Which either means there are only us old people on here, or a bunch of old people in young people's bodies. Believe it or not, there are some great newer albums. Even spotless ones. Music availability has never been more prolific than it is now, which does make it harder to sift through all the crap, but gems are out there. Music doesn't end at age 20. For instance, I didn't include EPs on my list, but if I had I might have included an album that is not too "modern" for "old" progressive rock-oriented audiophiles, and is audiophile-friendly, David Maxim Micic - Eco. Release date - 2015. If you're into epic movie soundtracks, Brand X Music - Battle for Dawn might make this list. Heck, I'm not a huge soundtrack fan, but when I'm in the mood for loud epic music I always listen to this album all the way through, so I'm adding it to this thread's list. Release date - 2016. I won't go into all the great modern metal. I know metal is outside the scope of most people here, but even if you got stuck on 70's or early 80's metal there's plenty of new stuff that would possibly make this list for some, like Dee Snider (from Twisted Sister) - For The Love Of Metal, release date - 2018. I dare say Dee is older than most people here, but he's rockin' harder than ever. He puts cheesy Twisted Sister to shame. My most-played album is the doom metal release Trees of Eternity - Hour of the Nightingale. Easily in my top three metal albums of all time. And I bought my first metal album in 1971, so it had to beat out thousands of albums for that honor. Release date - 2016. |
