I am the exact same way. My wife will ask me to do something, and 2 minutes later I can't for the life of me remember what it is, but I can recite pretty much every lyric to every album in my collection-- which my wife brings up when I forget everything she asks of me.... "You know the lyrics to hundreds of songs, but you can't remember to put the laundry in the dryer." I hear it all the time.

When "learning" an album, I also look to see who the individual players are... for me it adds to the album, and knowing who the players are gives me a more personal connection or album, or at least it feels that way.
