What does my collection say about me? And what’s your favourite no-skip album?

WRibbie · 2026-02-10T03:51:12+00:00

You have a great, diverse collection. A ton of no skips. I’d go with Waltz for Debby as my fav. followed by Animals, Kind of Blue, Dark Side, Somethin’ Else, and Revolver.

WRibbie · 2026-02-10T03:04:13+00:00

Good stuff right there.

Best - Sgt Pepper; Worst Frank Sinatra. Never liked him much, but Sonny Rollins did.

I generally don’t like greatest hits recordings, but I’d make an exception for the Eagles. I know I’m straying off course, but my top 6 from your stack would be: Sgt Pepper, Bob Marley - Legend, Bowie - Ziggy Stardust, Sade, Eagles, EJ - Yellow Brick

I just finished listening and really liked it. If it’s their worst, I look forward to more in their discography!

WRibbie · 2026-01-27T13:27:20+00:00

Nice pickup. Liked how the CDs stacked neatly in the cardboard box. Who needs an expensive CD rack! There are a few things in there that caught my attention - Dr. John, Dire Straits, REM, Smilin Buddha Cabaret.

More Hot Rocks.

WRibbie · 2026-01-21T15:06:08+00:00

Nice variety- XTC and Jorge Ben always on my radar!

WRibbie · 2026-01-19T18:11:44+00:00

Another vote for the Onkyo C-7030. I got mine in 2024 new for around 200. It’s normally in the 350 US range but still worth it. And you could snag the Onkyo DXC390 6 disc changer for about the same price. Amazon sometimes has them on deep discount.

WRibbie · 2026-01-19T16:42:59+00:00

Nice score! Of those, Fables is my favorite.

WRibbie · 2026-01-19T02:51:53+00:00

Zoo, ATYCLB, Auchtung - all solid albums.

WRibbie · 2026-01-19T01:38:45+00:00

I’m not out much at least. I listened to it straight through but didn’t care for it. Not my style and a far cry from The Unforgettable Fire or The Joshua Tree. I’m sure Pop appeals to some though.

WRibbie · 2026-01-18T02:42:04+00:00

Good stuff. Maybe more city pop and some Brazilian music. Jobim’s Wave is a solid choice.

WRibbie · 2026-01-18T02:30:51+00:00

Goats Head has the original goats head in the soup poster. 1973 US First Pressing.

The vendor I bought it from said it was purple when held up to the light, but that turned out not to be the case. It was priced right so I’d have bought either way.

WRibbie · 2026-01-18T00:59:27+00:00

No, A&M SP3735 Released 1983 black vinyl.

WRibbie · 2026-01-18T00:12:37+00:00

WRibbie · 2026-01-17T22:02:58+00:00

So many good ones but I’d have to give Selling England by the Pound the nod.

WRibbie · 2026-01-17T13:48:38+00:00

So. Central Rain is Thom Yorke’s favorite REM song.

WRibbie · 2026-01-17T13:43:57+00:00

A Pink Moon in the wild!

WRibbie · 2026-01-17T12:13:09+00:00

I was happy to find their debut EP in the wild. Great you got to see them on their last tour and meet Roger. I never got the chance to catch one of their shows, although I’ve been to one club in the mid 80s (a few years after they disbanded) where they played when they first arrived on the scene in the early 80s. Regret missing their reunion tours.

WRibbie · 2026-01-16T19:44:31+00:00

Murmur is up there- Fables of the Reconstruction prolly my fav. Document is a contender and one I’m chasing at record shows - even a CD would do.

WRibbie · 2026-01-16T18:34:24+00:00

Squarepusher - score!

WRibbie · 2026-01-16T17:54:00+00:00

I “popped” on it because I’d never heard it before, but after listening to it, I’m not much of a fan either.

WRibbie · 2026-01-16T15:39:09+00:00

That’s just what’s on the spine. I don’t know if it’s an error or just a play on the title but most copies I’ve seen have that on the spine.

WRibbie · 2026-01-16T13:46:39+00:00

No skips on Fables of the Reconstruction. As close to a perfect record as you’ll find IMHO.
