Spinoff QOTD: What albums can you listen to from beginning to end...

...without skipping songs?

This is a spinoff from yesterday's thread about Janet Jackson's boobies, which turned into all of us ranting about how much music sucks. LOL.

What albums, past and present, can you listen to from beginning to end without skipping songs, and are actually WORTH the price you paid for them?

I'll start:

Old:
U2 - The Joshua Tree - I'd pay $50 for this cd.
Springsteen - Born To Run
The Beatles - Leave me on an island with The White Album and Abbey Road, and come get me in 30 years.
Billy Joel - Cold Spring Harbor, Songs In The Attic, Glass Houses, Greatest Hits 1, 2, and 3.
Led Zeppelin - Just leave me in a room for a week and I'll listen to all of them twice.
Stevie Wonder - Songs In The Key Of Life

New:

Norah Jones - Come Away With Me
Alicia Keyes - Songs In A Minor
Gavin DeGraw - Chariot (this is very new and SO good)
Coldplay - Rush of Blood To The Head

any ben folds or ben folds five
dave matthews crash
any billy joel
any elton john
shania twain up!
chicago greatest hits
dawson's creek soundtrack
jimmy buffet songs you know by heart

i could go on more but those are my faves right now. the newest cd i bought is shania twain's up! so i guess new music does stink! i can't think of any new artist i even like enough to pay $18 for their cd, maybe ruben studdard lol it's much easier just to use i-tunes and pick out the best song from each group.

Gotcha. Agreed. U2 is the best. I can really only listen to all their albums (with the exception maybe of 'Pop') from start to finish--especially Achtung Baby, Rattle and Hum and All That You Can't Leave Behind

AHHHHHHHHHHHH...I wish I had my CD's at work now!!!
