This is a rather new concept for me, this listening to an album as a whole.
I generally like entire albums of music that I have, but especially with the advent of digital players and my beloved "shuffle" option, I rarely listen to any one artist's work all the way through. I see where albums, particularly rock, it seems (jazz does too, to a degree), would produce a work meant to be enjoyed "in order". It's just interesting to me...it's not how I listen to music.
Not saying that won't change, tho...
This is all very educational.
