leviramsey Posted December 15, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 15, 2012 For some reason or other, I decided to listen to Billy Joel's studio output in chronological order (though I was too lazy to order each album in track order), and when River of Dreams came on, it struck me how much I remembered note for note even though I probably haven't listened to the album in at least 15 years. So in some sense, that album has been a constant for all that time because I don't have to put it on: I've just been wasting my brain cells remembering every detail of that album.

Seat68 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Orange Blosssom Special by Johnny Cash. Every Cash album is flawless but thats one that I have been playing for most of my life and still get something new from each listen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Oasis for me as well... WTSMG. Also Be Here Now... this conjures up memories of leaving college in 97 and starting full time work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 I think all of mine have been mentioned. Hatful of Hollow -The Smiths Whatever people say I am that's what I'm not - Arctic Monkeys Songs for the Deaf - Queens of the Stone Age. Those three go everywhere. Every iPod refresh, they're in regardless. Every playlist I create there's a song from one of them in it even if it doesn't quite fit and when I'm struggling to find something I want to listen to they're the go to albums. Especially the Arctic's debut. I've got a very varied and eclectic taste, but I love it's simplicity, it's rawness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Risso Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 Hard to narrow it own to one, it really is. It'd have to be one from the following three: The Smiths - The Queen is Dead Belle and Sebastian - If You're Feeling Sinister Spearmint - A Week Away I think if push came to shove, I'd have to go with Belle and Sebastian. That album had a massive influence on my life at the time, and no, not just a penchant for cardigans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted December 15, 2012 Share Posted December 15, 2012 with Small Faces edging it on duration / longevity, Furries edging it on social side and gigs, Jam taking it on life changing momentus first realisation music could be cool smugly, I have really early pressings of all three Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjmooney Posted December 17, 2012 VT Supporter Share Posted December 17, 2012 Kate Bush is one of those "I feel I ought to like her but I just don't get it" artists for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 is the closest I can think of. There are albums that changed my taste in music significantly more than civ dis, but this is one of the only albums from around ages 12-16 that i have listened to in the last few years, I reckon. So it wins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blandy Posted December 18, 2012 Moderator Share Posted December 18, 2012 Kate Bush is one of those "I feel I ought to like her but I just don't get it" artists for me. Have you heard any of "Aerial", Mike ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y7U1F-E9KLU or "50 Words for Snow" Because they're a different side of her, maybe to the Hounds of Love type stuff. They might even connect with your classical-liking side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa_chemist Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 Funnily enough, I've been having that very debate this week with other Hendrix fans. Most of them agree with you. But - while I agree that Axis is brilliant - I personally prefer Ladyland. I think electric Ladyland is a great album stretched over two. If he'd released: Crosstown Traffic 1983...a Merman I Should Turn to Be Long Hot Summer Night Come On (part 1) Gypsy Eyes Burning of the Midnight Lamp House Burning Down All Along the Watchtower Voodoo Chile (Slight Return) It would have been much better.

AVFC_Hitz Posted December 19, 2012 Share Posted December 19, 2012 I've been listening to music properly for 15 years now. It's always been 'Word Gets Around' by Stereophonics. Then come the Manics and Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
