What old Pop albums/CDs do you still listen to?

I have a ton of pop albums in my iTunes catalog. I rarely listen to them after their brief time of popularity--Mariah, Whitney, Janet, Michael, etc.

I tend to listen to their greatest hits instead.

What pop albums do you still listen to after their general popularity has waned?

by Anonymousreply 56April 16, 2020 8:30 PM

Born in the USA, several Bananarama albums, She's So Unusual, Madonna (the first one), The first Whitney Houston album.

I still listen to Belinda Carlisle's Heaven on Earth all the way through.

"Tracy Chapman" and "Third Eye Blind".

I can't listen to the old stuff. Well maybe Beach Boys and Beatles.

Mostly I listen classical music now (sometimes jazz).

I recently bought the Cherry Red/7Ts Partridge Family two-fers containing their first six albums. I hadn't listened to them since I was about 10 and I absolutely love the first three records, especially Sound Magazine. Just about every song on that album could have been a hit. The way David Cassidy sings "yeaaaaahhhh" on the pop masterpiece Summer Days is about the sexiest thing I've ever heard. What a great voice he had.

Eurythmics entire catalog. Sheer brilliance. They should've been bigger in the US.

by Anonymousreply 30May 29, 2016 3:51 AM

Sound Magazine is great r28... Most underrated pop album of the 70s. Summer Days sounds like it should be on Broadway...from the songs off the first four albums... Could be turned into quite the musical...

Agreed r24, anything by George and he did leave us to early, don't hate him for being human. He will be back.

by Anonymousreply 34June 1, 2016 5:48 AM

If it's like a whole album then it would generally be an OCR, as I've always preferred singles. One album I can listen to all the way through is Boyzone's album No Matter What.
