super here for this! have been listening to a diff rec’d album by a diff friend for every week this year :)
and then do it again and again, even if not all songs seem equal. It’s the best way to find out that the worst track is actually the best track
when I was dumping my scholarship stipend into CD’s, i never ever bought a single, only full albums. this is the way
this Is why I still do vinyl! consuming with no skips, enjoying all the artists intentions, and an inherent nostalgia factor from jump.

Yes!
And on the “this song comes before that one for a reason” of it all, I do miss/appreciate the intentionality of an specifically ordered DIY mix CD or cassette.

100% I almost exclusively listen to full albums and have always lived life that way (lol grew up on the iTunes Store). Truly the way to experience music and actually have *~*an experience*~*.

You’re not alone! for the most part, I only listen to music this way. It just feels right. my dad hammered this ideal into me with my iPod. I wasn’t allowed to buy songs, only albums. It was his account, so I had to run it by him first every time i wanted to buy something, but he never said no. I know for a fact he still listens to Animal by Ke$ha lol, banger
