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.

"Blue" Joni Mitchell "Deja Vu" Crosby Stills Nash and Young "Tea For The Tillerman" Cat Stevens "Ziggy Stardust" David Bowie "Who's Next" The Who "Moondance" Van Morrison "Dark Side of the Moon" Pink Floyd "Wish You Were Here" Pink Floyd " Live At The Fillmore East" Allman Brothers Band "Sticky Fingers" The Rolling Stones "Blood on the Tracks" Bob Dylan "Rubber Soul" The Beatles Although this list is decidedly skewed towards the 1960's and 70's, this only indicates that perfection has apparently become harder to achieve.

@thecarpathian My spine is the bass line. |
Well, I for one will not take advantage of your youth & inexperience. Now I tried those that you posted and the only one which showed any sort of maybe being good (to me) was "lcd soundsystem - sound of silver" The main reason I don't listen to much of the newer music is because its just not compelling It has no soul, Its too mechanical like its being played by a machine rather than a human. And often that is the case. But if that's what you like, then good. |
Dig the Aja. Fantastic, but not in the top 3. Have to go with Boston's first. Every song is a hit and about as perfect as a studio album anyone could hope for. Next would be Alanis Morrisette's "Jagged Little Pill". I can't imagine arguments on this other than #2 or #3. Next would be Led Zeppelin's "Zoso". Need I say more. I have no problem rearranging those in order of preference. I also have no problem stating that DSOTM could belong in the mix but doesn't make the top 3 in my mind in regards to the question posed. |
I’ve other favorites, but these are ones solid throughout.: Janis Joplin/ Big Brother & The Holding Company "Cheap Thrills" Marvin Gaye "What’s Goin’ On" Sex Pistols "Never Mind the Bollocks" John Coltrane "A Love Supreme" Derek and the Dominoes "Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs" Wayne Shorter "Speak No Evil" Igor Stravinsky "The Rite of Spring" Erykah Badu "Baduizm" Grateful Dead The first "Live Dead" album (the orange one with ’Love Light’ on it) |
Dear leemaze, I'm an old guy, and my son-in-law keeps me on track with today's music, some of which I like. But what I find weird is that so few here picked Jazz and Classical recordings-- gentlemen, there are so many perfect recordings in those genres, performed by musicians who are masters of their instruments and dedicated to excellence. |
My list would look almost identical to "tony1954"s list, with the addition of Steely Dan’s "Aja", and The Doors "Morrison Hotel" and "Strange Days". Other additions would be Chris Isaak’s "Baja Sessions" and Jethro Tull’s "Stand Up" and "Benefit". Finally, Cat Stevens' "Teaser and the Firecat" is outstanding. |
