#1 Posted: 8/22/2012 5:30:42 PM Or for those that do not remember vinyl records CD's that you have played so many times the laser starts to burn a hole into it. For me here are a few that I spent hours upon hours listening to. There are many others these are the ones that come to mind at this time.
Sticky Fingers, The Rolling Stones (I must have listen to Can't You Hear Me Knocking 1,000 times)
Breakfast in America, Supertramp (Was sick in early 20's with the German Measles this album got me through the 105 degree fever)
Damn the Topedoes, Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (One of their finest moments and a masterpiece)
Sandinista, The Clash (A three record set of brillance) |

I can remember being 13 years old in 1984 in the middle of KMart begging my parents..."I neeeeed this!"
I played it on my sister's cheap-behind Fisher Price record player and scratched it all to hell. Half year later, I was so pissed off because every song skipped I grabbed it off the player and threw it against a wall; shattering it into about 50 pieces. 
Rest of my faves are tapes or CD's but I'll keep the conversation focused on vinyl.
(Which by the way, despite the recent upswing in album sales, I don't miss vinyl one bit. If your CD skips...stop banging into your
CD player!)

Every Led Zep record until Bonham died.
Pink Floyd "Animals" (had the 8-track)
Jimi Hendrix "Are You Experienced"
AC/DC "Highway to Hell"
more to come...
