Re: album lengths -- quality or quantity?

regarding Greatest Hits albums, I agree that those should be filled to the brim. They're not meant to be cohesive albums, but collections of the biggest hits. And it's odd seeing a huge hitmaker...

Re: album lengths -- quality or quantity?

I feel the same way. I know some people feel like a CD should be filled to the max, but I think that a band to churn out a good 45-50 minute album is better. In the days where vinyl was the...

Re: album lengths -- quality or quantity?

I think one sign that an album has "filler" or not is usually by a general consensus of what the weakest songs off an album are. To use Madonna as a good example. Like A Prayer is generally...

Re: album lengths -- quality or quantity?

I think it is too, although Innervisions comes close. Stevie was so brilliant in 1976 that even 21 songs wasn't quite enough

Re: album lengths -- quality or quantity?

aren't most classic 70's 2-record sets always debatable? For instance, I know a lot of people who think Songs In The Key Of Life is Stevie Wonder's magnum opus, but I know plenty of people who...

Re: album lengths -- quality or quantity?

Don't forget that 2112 and Moving Pictures are products from the vinyl era and both top out at 40 minutes. Those two albums are classics and will continue to sell for decades to come whereas the 70...

Re: album lengths -- quality or quantity?

Re: album lengths -- quality or quantity?

great example. Eno, Rubin and O'Brien are three of the best producers around for that reason IMO, they treat albums as ALBUMS, not "collections of songs".

album lengths -- quality or quantity?
