"Older albums" you still listen to regularly! Nowadays people have such short attention spans when it comes down to music. Even soemthing from a couple of years ago are regarded as old but i'm talking about stuff atleast 15 years old or more. Here's my list!

actually, quite a lot of what i listen to is at least 15 years old. maybe even most of it. it would be interesting to talk to people under 20 and hear what kind of old stuff they like. i listened to the beatles, sly, jimi and janis a lot when i was a teenager. to me that was old skool. annie lennox is probably to kids today what grace slick was to me when i was a kid. weird. |

I'd say nearly all of the albums I listen to regularly are from the 80s or earlier anyway, with some notable exceptions from this decade being:
Once upon a time, in a deep dark forest, an old woman, tappin' her toes... | |

There are many more that i'll add on later. How about you?? Here is what is in my current rotation. 1. Abbey Road - The Beatles 2. Frampton Comes Alive - P. Frampton. 3.

I'm the opposite of most people here in that I listen to a lot of current music, like from the last five years. But the oldies that get played the most would be these two:

You ain't neva lied. Even music we didn't like before when it was new suddenly looks more appealing with age. [Edited 9/5/08 19:57pm] | |
