Mine (in no particular order): Bruce Springsteen - The River The Clash - London Calling Stevie Wonder - Songs in the key of life Another Stevie album (this one in particular is criminally underrated!) "Journey Through The Secret Life Of Plants" Derek & the Dominos (Eric Clapton, Duane Allman and co.) - Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs The Rolling Stones - Exile On Main St. Miles Davis - Bitches Brew Prince - Sign O The Times The Beatles - White Album . An honorable mention goes out to... Prince - Emancipation James Brown - Star Time Miles Davis - Agharta (funky as hell!) & Dark Magus (urrghh very creepy sound, i recommend u don't listen to it at night or else it'll give u some badass nightmares) . am probably forgetting about a few though | |

Stevie Wonder ~ Stevie Wonder's Journey Trough The Secret Life Of Plants George Benson ~ Livin' Inside Your Love The Wiz ~ Soundtrack Saturday Night Fever ~ Soundtrack The Jacksons ~ Live! The Beatles ~ The Beatles Brand New Heavies ~ Brother Sister Madonna ~ Erotica Prince ~ 1999 James Brown ~ The Payback You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton | |

Dylan - Blonde on Blonde Hendrix - Electric Ladyland Bob Marley - Babylon By Bus Stevie - Songs Rolling Stones - Exile Prince - 1999 Led Zep - Physical Graffiti Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road Beatles - White Album Saturday Night Fever soundtrack And I think SOTT is the last truly great double album for the vinyl format | |

Husker Du - Zen Arcade Minutemen - Double Nickels on the Dime Who - Tommy Who - Quadrophenia 1999 SITKOL SOTT Exile JCS White Album
Those top two completely revised my idea about rock music, punk and human potential back in 1985. Of any of the albums we're talking about those are the ones I believe to be most overlooked. Punk rockers know them but most do not.

im pretty sure those all single vinyl releases when first issued.[Edited 5/18/16 17:27pm] Nick Ashford was someone I greatly admired, had the honor of knowing, and was the real-life inspiration for Cowboy Curtis' hair. RIP Nick. - Pee Wee Herman | |

I'm pretty sure I bought them when they came out and they're not single. The CDs were single. The albums were too long for a single LP. Heavy Rhyme Experience by BNH was a single LP. Many CD era albums were double vinyl and Michael Jackson's History is a 3 record set.

Quick off topic question, is that Tinashe in your avatar? If so then dope | |

Love Tinashe, it's cool to see other fans too. Anyway here's mineA few obvious choices and a few surprises from me. Ever since the CD age, we have albums that were released as 1 CD/2 LP, but these don't count imo. Here we go:
Bob Dylan: Blonde on Blonde Rolling Stones: Exile on Main St. Frank Zappa: Sheik Yerbouti James Brown: The Payback Prince: Sign O' the Times Marvin Gaye: Here, My Dear Kate Bush: Aerial Jimi Hendrix: Electric Ladyland Isaac Hayes: Black Moses Boudewijn de Groot: Een hele tour (two live CDs from this Dutch artist.)

you're absolutely right! couldve sworn it was a double lp cause it feels like an hour long at least, but it's actually 45 mins long, lol (i dont own a copy of it, i wish i did though)
Use Your Illusion I & II, which was basically a double album sold separately. "Never let nasty stalkers disrespect you. They start shit, you finish it. Go down to their level, that's the only way they'll understand. You have to handle things yourself." | |
