Not one of my favourites of his albums, but Springsteen's The River is certainly as good as some listed above.

1999 & Sign O'The Times - Prince
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

what u perceive as filler may be someone else's favourite track

that's the beauty of double albums, they always have something for everyone

for example, The Ballad of Dorothy Parker. I myself always skip it, yet some people here absolutely love it.

I always ignore the superlatives (best, greatest, of all time) in subject headings at this point and just post some favorites.

1999?! I'm sorry but there's great debate as to whether it's a single or a double, even warner couldn't mkae their mind up!


"1999" is definately a double album with no doubt. It was released in 1982 on vinyl before there was any such thing as CDs. It's on one CD because CDs hold more music than vinyl. There's no way all the music from "1999" would fit on one vinyl record.

beauty is in the eye of the beholder. then again, if the ablum was 45 minutes to begin with, it wouldn't really matter, because there's not much filler on that one in the first place.
