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) :-)

That's pretty easy for me, Peter Gabriel "Plays Live". I've listened to this many, many times. Great music (if you like Peter Gabriel, that is) and a good recording.
At home it's Days of Future Passed, I've been crazy about it since I first head in '70. I am so familiar with it I can tell when there are pitch issues in turntables or tape decks, and it is my primary auditioning recording. Evening will demonstrate the quality of a tweeter like nothing else I've heard. Different albums hold 1st place for months at a time, but nothing competes with it for my attention over tha last 30 years.

For travel - Beethovens 9th conducted by Bernstein, is always part of my playlist for drives over 3 hours and airplane flights, it gets me 70 minutes closer to my destination leaving me refreshed and in a positive frame of mind, particularly good for connection layovers.
Greg Allman, "Laid Back"...bought this album when I married my wife 30 years ago. We've listened to it at least once a week since. Wow, that's over 1500 plays on the same piece of vinyl and it still sounds new. Speaking of the original vinyl release only, it's an excellent recording with some of the best material I know of.

Bob Dylan, "Blood On The Tracks"...my favorite Dylan record. It prompted me to explore the remainder of his recordings. FWIW, all his recordings (at least the original pressings) are good quality. Maybe not by audiophile standards but very listenable.

Neil Young, "Harvest"...my hero. The Nautilus pressing is my favorite mix.

Too bad the limit is three. I have at least a dozen albums that almost never get put back into their proper resting place unless guests are coming.
Tool - Aenima, if you like heavier music this one is excellent. Decent sound as well. Unusual for stuff this heavy.

Joni Mitchell - Herija, after reading another post here on Agon about people's favourite Joni albums I picked up this one at a discount price. I have been playing it very frequently since getting it only a week ago. Love it.

Budgie - In For The Kill, a Welch power trio from the 70's with great music that gets the blood flowing and has me singing along (as long as no one is around to hear).

I have many more favs and what would be my pick of three will vary greatly from day to day and week to week. Some weeks the selections might have been three classical albums. But that's for another post. Happy music hunting.
Alice Peacock-her newest one, the name currently escapes me.
Tim Mahoney "Live"
Exit "Two Words"
