Good to see that "other" is polling well.

 

[rettucs]

no such thing as a 'good' double-album

 

[Diumraid]

I voted for 'Sing to God' by Cardiacs because it is a good double album. Very good.

Use Your Illusion midnight launch September 1991. Don't see this shop selling vinyl copies.

Can't believe I let this thread get this far without posting this. Fuck all that 70s overblown nonsense.


By far the best double album ever made.

Second place is this

Third

Nothing else comes close.

 

[Denny Oubidoux]

Of the ones on the list I like The Wall best but I voted for Don Juan's Reckless Daughter by Joni Mitchell. I'm struggling to think off the top of my head what double albums I have that are worth mentioning

Todd Rundgren - Todd
Roy Harper - Flashes From The Archives of Oblivion
Fushitsusha - Live 2 or I Saw It! That Which Before I Could Only Sense

I have Six by Mansun on double vinyl, therefore I'm nominating that. An amazing album.

The Tired Sounds of Stars Of The Lid

My favourite would be Do Make Say Think's Winter Hymn, Country Hymn, Secret Hymn. It's an album in three parts really.

Hold on what constitutes a double album ? Daydream nation and Tago Mago ? Trout mask Replica ? Really ?

They'd obviously be on my list too.
