What Album(s) Have You Been Listening To NonStop During Quarantine?

Appetite for Destruction,

Chrome,

Master of Puppets,

The Immaculate Collection

Jesus Christ Superstar

"Abie Baby", "Three Five Zero/What a Piece of Work is Man", "The Flesh Failures", from the orig. broadway cast album of "Hair." I just downloaded the lyrics for "Abie Babie" a month ago and now I can understand why they're unintelligible. And the double verse singing at the end of "The Flesh Failures" stirs me every time I hear it. I've been listneing to it for 51 years. My neighbour made me a cassette copy of "Hair" and "Woodstock." I was all of 9 years old at the time. Bless him.

Phantom of the Paradise (soundtrack by Paul Williams)

I'm listening to M.I.A. during this time too. I've owned a couple of her albums for years and years but never really spent time trying to get into them. I guess now is the time. I've only really listened to the first two in depth so far, but Arular is SO good! I think Kala has some songs on it that are better than anything on Arular, but Arular works better as a cohesive album. Anyway, am enjoying listening to her properly for the first time (prior to this I was really only familiar with "Paper Planes" and "Bad Girls", despite owning her albums).

Stan Getz and surf music.

Mainly: Fetch the Bolt Cutters-Fiona Apple

Set my Heart on fire immediately- Perfume Genius

i,i - Bon Iver

And now I’ve added Phoebe Bridgers “Punisher” which is so, so lovely.

Old Thomas Dolby. Both Golden Age of Wireless and The Flat Earth. I forgot just how beautiful his music could be. He was so mistakenly discounted by his easy hits (She Blinded Me With Science and Hyperactive!). The Flat Earth, Dissidents, Screen Kiss, One of Our Submarines, and Europa are such great 80s songs.

Motorhead (s/t)

Blizzard of Ozz

Blonde on Blonde

Music for the Masses

Bohren & Der Club of Gore - Patchouli Blue

Speaking about M.I.A., her last album, AIM, is not half-bad. I love it.

Barbra. Every album.

Butterfly? I'd sooner break quarantine for a Trump rally.
