#85. That Album That You Did'nt Like On First Listen But It Is Now Played To Death.


Sometimes these are the real beauties in your collection. Usually it is from a genre that you don't listen to or it is an album devoid of hooks and memorable riffs or content. However SOMETHING in the record makes you want to listen to it again...and again....and again...and again. These albums are ridiculously rewarding because each time that you listen to it, you find something new. A sequence of notes that you did'nt hear before. An ambience that was just lost on you. A lyric that fits so snugly into that track's musical theme.

Music is a strange beast and it is that unpredictability that keeps my world spinning.
