[Continuum]

Greatest hits compilations all the way! All killer, no filler!

 

[RaniBrandt]

[4StringTheorist]

So many that others have listed.

I'll add

Throwing Copper by Live

 

[Illini10]

I usually listen to most of my CDs straight through, unless my kids request a particular song (lately they've been requesting "De do do do, de da da da," and "Regatta de Blanc).

I absolutely have to listen to OK Computer by Radiohead from start to finish.

 

[Reaper Man]

Adding- thread is new enough I don't want to add something already said:

Guns and Roses- Appetite for Destruction
Deltron 3030- Deltron 3030

I'm sure I can add more if I really think about it- but this will do for a quick pass/place holder

 

[bolophonic]

The only album that I really listen to in its entirety is Fair Warning by Van Halen, which also happens to be the greatest American rock album of all time.

 

[Dana R Gregory]

Deep Purple Machine Head
Grand Funk Red album
Led Zeppelin I & II
Black Sabbath Paranoid, Vol 4

 

[MCF]

Abbey Road. Boom!

Diving back into The Frames... today i just finished Fitzcarraldo and its perfect from end to end. I would never dream of not listening to it from start to finish.
Todd Rundgrens Almost Human, Pink Floyd's Animals & Wish You Were Here, Steely Dan's Aja, and Bowie's Station to Station is in the same boat for me.

What recordings do you consider "perfect" and have to listen to them in there entirety?

Abbey Road. Ziggy Stardust. Rust Never Sleeps. Close To The Edge. Selling England By The Pound. Born To Run. Give 'Em Enough Rope. Armed Forces. Jackrabbit Slim. Past, Present and Future.

I really could go on and on. Even on Spotify, I listen to albums from start to finish. My (now grown) kids, on the other hand, skip all over the place with mixes. Drives me nuts.

 

[Benny the Finger]

Bob Segar - Stranger in Town

 

[enders89]

These albums have my favorite Lyrical and Musical Endings to albums, but Ill put in the lyrics too.

Opeth - Blackwater Park
"Sick liesons trace this monumental mark, The sun sets forever over blackwater park."

Between the Buried and Me - Colors
"WHITE WALLS, WHITE WALLS"

Protest the Hero - Fortress
"The silence inside you when the music has stopped."

The Receiving End of Sirens - The Earth Sings Mi Fa Mi
"Sticks and stones won’t break my bones
It’s the branches and boulders I shoulder
Stick and stones won’t break my bones
I can live with it
If I can learn to live with this
If I can learn to live"

What recordings do you consider "perfect" and have to listen to them in there entirety?

None, actually. There's some perfect albums but I can always listen to them in doses.
