My Take

In my case, the albums that have become my favorites are the ones I feel I absolutely have to listen to from start to finish. Of course, there are standout tracks, and some, though good, might pale in comparison to others. But it’s the experience of listening to the entire album that captivates me.

Examples:

  • “Flowerboy” by Tyler, The Creator.
  • “Affinity” by Haken
  • “Brat” by Charli XCX
  • The debut album by Gentle Giant

What are your favorite albums and why?

    Booker T and the M.G.'s Universal Language

    The album was dedicated to M.G.'s drummer Al Jackson, Jr., who was murdered in 1975;[2] the remaining members recruited Willie Hall to replace him on this album.[3] The group would not record another album for seventeen years, returning in 1994 with That’s the Way It Should Be.

    There’s something so deep and unique about this album. Last Tango in Memphis is my favorite track, but this is one of the few albums of any genre I enjoy just putting on and listening to all the way through.
