Amused to Death by Roger Waters. It took me years to get through the entire album as before I was listening to just a few choice songs. The Q sound is excellent as well. The DSD version is incredible and the soundstage extends far beyond the speakers.
Tell Us about an Album That Took a Long Time to Grow on You
I'd love to hear about records you own that left you cold or disappointed when you first heard them but really grew on you with time. I'll give two examples.
The first is Paul Simon's collaboration with Brian Eno from 2006 entitled "Surprise." I really, really disliked it at first – so much of it felt to me like noise. But over time, I came to appreciate it.
The second is Donald Fagen's "Sunken Condos." I am such a huge fan of him and Steely Dan that I was shocked by how little affection I felt for that record when I first heard it. Now, the better part of two years later, there are songs on the album that I can't get enough of. Strange how this happens…
