Which record album is hard to listen to today

Which album (yes 33 rpm album) if you found in your garage would be hard to put on the old turn table and listen to the Whole Album

How about In-A-Gadda-Vita by the Iron Butterfly

 

Nah.... Love that album.

 

The Partridge Family

 

OK what if you had your friends over at your house, would you put on David Bowie "Ziggy Stardust"

 

Never was a fan of Bowie.....


And what are these "friends" you speak of? Nobody comes over here.....

 

That was my choice, before I even read the post. It falls under the "what was I thinking?" category.
But they tried and we did enjoy it back then, so it had some value.

 

It's funny I'm a little too young to be an "Old Hippie" but since studying audio production "Good Vibrations" by the Beach Boys is a hard one for me to listen to. I understand how groundbreaking it is from a writing, arranging and production standpoint. But I can hear all of the edits between sections and it drives me fucking nuts.

On the other hand I heard a long version or "What's Goin' On" by Marvin Gaye in headphones. There was something almost psychadelic about the panning in the mix and where certain instruments were and where they changed places in the stereo spectrum.

It's kind of funny listening to tracks from the dawn of stereo and comparing them to tracks done today.

I listen to that all the time. Both sides, I think it stands the test of time.

 

Probably Reggata de Blanc by The Police. Sting makes me wince today. Or barf. Depends on my mood.

 

East-West by the Paul Butterfield Blues Band

 

None of them ... I get even more enjoyment out of all my albums now because it brings back the memories of the people that were there, the parties .. my youth

 

Frampton Comes Alive.

 

Thats the only 8-track tape I have left. Nothing to play it on tho.

 

You know... I still dig that.

 

I think I wore the grooves straight on my copy.

 

anything from the bee gees, and damn sure their disco days albums, dont care much for alice cooper nowadays either

 

The Woodstock album always gets me a little nostalgic, Even though i had to work that weekend and didnt go the music represents a very prominent time in my life.

 

The hardest one to listen to because I 'm just not into them anymore is the MC5 album "Kick Out The Jams". Back in a day I think I lost 15db of hearing to them. lol. The hardest one to listen to for sentimental reasons is Leonard Cohen's album "The Songs of Leonard Cohen", especially the song 'Suzanne'. Lotta old me tied to that one.
