Anyone listen to entire albums?

on that "when I grew up right around CDs" angle:

when and where I grew up, an album cost 2 weeks' salary. A turntable would cost twice that. Most people had 10 or 15 records total. (One for Christmas and one for a birthday - slowly adding up) We were poor so we didn't have a turntable. When I started working, I could afford to buy a used one. I also bought my friend's record collection about 30 albums (he was super rich - for us). 

When your monthly paycheck buys you 2 albums, it better be good to listen to every side and song. 

I grew up listening to vinyl so I still listen to albums in their entirety even though I dumped my vinyl decades ago in favor of CDs. The only exception is when I’m streaming in the car or at the gym. 

When my vinyl rig was working, I generally listened to albums straight through. Now that I'm forced to listen to CD's, I have to admit I skip around if I don't care for particular tracks.

@grislybutter we were not well off when I grew up either.  I do remember listening to my parents collection of Billy Joel albums though when I was all of maybe 10.  I think they had maybe five or six albums and that was it.  That and The Beach Boys Endless Summer.  I loved those records. Can’t recall, but I believe I listened to those all the way through at the time.

Yup. I’m old school. I find it much easier to do while playing a LP. The 20 minute interval keeps me engaged. I can get lost and bored while listening to a CD or digital file.
