These days, I only ever really get into singles... it's like albums are a lost art.
For me though, the last full album that I really loved was Lauryn Hill's "The Miseducation of..." back in 98 (gulp). The whole album told a story... I loved all those kids talking about love.
What's your favorite album of all time?

I'm a crazy Pearl Jam fan so I'm always drawn to the concert bootleg I saw in 2005, it's amazing quality for a live band (they're so super talented!), they play so many of my favorite songs and it bring me back 8 years!

U2 Joshua Tree, The Police- Synchronicity, Beatles- Rubber Soul, Jimi Hendrix- Are you Experienced, Led Zepplin-Led Zepplin, Coltrain- A Love Supreme, Simon and Garfunkel- Bridge over Troubled Water, Beastie Boys- License to Ill...
I'm leaving out some of my favorite Indie Pop. I 'll have to think on that.

@Rubies: Good one.
@KJfromNJ: That was definitely a formative album for me!

@Mrs. Jacks: agree with you on Joshua Tree!
And I first heard some devil while studying abroad in Sicily. We'd all share our CD discmans (it was RIGHT before iPods I got one when I got back actually) and on the beach one day my friend Erika let me listen to it. The world just fell away and it was like a musicgasm! Listening to that album brings me back to Lido di Pirata in Taormina!

@Mrs. Jacks: Haha I think we define "favorite" differently!
blogger / pineapple / 12381 posts
@mrbee: Sorry, it's a different favorite for every mood I suppose. I can be super fickle. But if I had to pick one, I'll stick with Joshua Tree (which I put first)... It's just that I get tired of hearing things over and over. Thus the many favorites.

@Mrs. Jacks: we love New Order/Joy Division! LO had on a New Order onesie yesterday!
My all time favorite album is Fiona Apple's Tidal. Got me through a lot of living!
blogger / pineapple / 12381 posts
@yoursilverlining: Oh my god, that is so awesome! I bow down to your coolness!
I don't love Fiona, but it did remind me that I went through an intense time with Alannis Morrisette and Jagged Little Pill as well as Sarah McLachlan and Fumbling Towards Ecstacy.

@Mrs. Jacks: LO rocks New Order and Elvis Costello onesies on the regular; we joke that's how everyone knows that LO belongs to "old parents" 
blogger / pineapple / 12381 posts
@coacheswife123:
@yoursilverlining: You are very good (not old) parents! I think I just developed a crush Elvis Costello is fabulous too, but I think Mr. Bee wanted me to stop listing albums!

@Mrs. Jacks: New Order, Joy Division, Housemartins, and Smiths, but no Suede, Blur, Oasis, or Pulp?
Favourite album? Dog Man Star, by Suede.
blogger / pineapple / 12381 posts
@apis: Oh, Suede. I saw them at the Fillmore in 1994 and still have the Gig Poster. Totally awesome! Oasis was great in the beginning but too overplayed after awhile. I don't know Pulp well to be honest. I guess I should listen to their discography.
kiwi / 575 posts
@Mrs. Jacks: for Pulp, start out with His 'N' Hers.
Appropriately enough for HB, one of the best singles is called 'Babies'

Oh so many good ones on here! I think I'll always be able to listen to DMB "Live from Red Rocks". For some reason it makes me think of spring... although really I have many other all-time-favorites as well.

I think it's a tie between Weezer - Pinkerton and Radiohead - Ok Computer.
