Albums good from start to end

[soccerdad72]

I’m in the middle of a long solo drive )getting gas). I’m driving my son’s car to his college (he left earlier today with my wife).

So anyway, instead of just listening to a mix of music, I’ve been picking whole albums to listen to. Here’s been a few so far:

The Stranger - Billy Joel
Rumors - Fleetwood Mac
Thriller - Michael Jackson

What would be on your list?

 

[Neapolitan Ice Cream]

Simple Things by Zero 7

 

[TippyThomas]

Probably not the most popular out there, but Kansas, Leftoverture is an album that I really enjoy start to finish.

 

[Micca]

Anything by The Beatles, Stones Let It Bleed, Who's Next, Radiohead OK Computer, Wilco Yankee Hotel Foxtrot. Somone will recommend Pink Floyd, but I'm assuming you'd like to stay awake during your drive.

 

[kyton]

“Hotel California” Eagles
“Night Moves” Bob Seger
“Hot August Nights” Neil Diamond

 

[tvguy]

22 Explosive Hits by K-Tel
Believe in Music by K-Tel
Switched on Beatles

 

[Lumpy1106]

Talking Heads, "Remain in Light"
The Cure, "Head on the Door"
The Police, everything before "Synchronicity" which was just OK
That said, I'll offer an alternate; audio books. A single audio book will probably be longer than your drive and they are easy and free to get. Just go to Libby and put in your library card No. then pick one off the list. It plays through the app. Easy.

Thriller is a great dashboard beating album... love to roll my window down at intersection and turn the sound high

 

[Kathryn Merteuil]

I think Meat Loaf's "Bat out of Hell" a good start to finish, along with Prince and the Revolution's "Purple Rain" soundtrack.
