So I'm sitting here reading and thinking. I start thinking about great albums where I enjoy the whole thing end-to-end and not just certain songs I skip to. I figure it would be a good topic to put forth, and maybe I'll get some good recommendations for future music purchases.
Just one ground rule: Greatest Hits collections don't count, soundtracks are fair game though.
For my part, I'll put forth the following:
Welcome to the Neighbothood by Meatloaf
--Good lesser-known album by a great artist. Particularly fond of "Where the Rubber Meets the Road", "Not a Dry Eye in the House", and "Original Sin".
The Bubblegum Crisis Soundtrack for the original series
--Lots of good 80s-esque J-Pop tunes.
Discology by Daft Punk
--Great list of songs. Highly recommend picking up the Interstella 5555 movie that puts the entire album to animation.
Americana by The Offspring
--Great set of songs. I originally didn't care for parts of this album due to overplay on the radio, but I find myself popping it in the truck's CD player fairly often now that they don't get played as often.
Hysteria by Def Leppard
--One of the great 80's rock albums. Excellent track order that makes the songs somehow mean more when you hear the whole album from start to finish.
I'll add more if I think of them. So what do you have to add?
