Basically all the Beatles albums...especially their later ones, in my not so humble opinion.
Josh Ritter's album Hello Starling has also always been one of my favorites.
Icky Thump and Elephant, both by the White Stripes, are AMAZING albums.
Surrealistic Pillow, and Volunteers, by Jefferson Airplane.
Plastic Ono Band, by John Lennon
The Wall and Dark Side of the Moon, Pink Floyd
yeah!

"Classical"
Viva Voce! - Sotto Voce Tuba Quartet
Listen to This - Adam Frey, euphonium
Classical
Adagio for Strings - Samuel Barber (any recording of it)
Ska
Anthem - Less Than Jake
Am I the only one here that listens to classical music?
I highly suggest that everyone listen to Adagio for Strings by Samuel Barber. That music is absolutely incredible.

Slon in Sadež - Štafeta Mladosti:p
It's a CD made from audio from a show on TV, with funny audio inserts and songs with great and funny lyrics. There's only one song I have to skip, though

I'm not a big fan of Barber.
I like Oliver Messian myself. Anything twelve-tone is worth a listen.
Does anyone else listen to jazz??

I'm not sure if there is a cd with no song I'd want to skip...even the best of Led Zeppelin CDs have a couple I'll skip in favor of some other song.
The only album I can think of off the top of my head that I'd listen to and thoroughly enjoy every song is Ten by Pearl Jam.

The CD with the music from Scrubs (the TV show) was also my favorite a while ago. No song skipping for quite a few months. They are still good.

I have about 20 cds I can name right now that I havent skipped a track.
But, one of them I have listened to fully 4 days in a row now is Dream Theater. I cant say which cd, cause I usually listen to about 2 or 3 of their cds a day, with no skipping.
I do the same with Nightwish, Symphony X, Porcupine Tree, Necrophagist, Dying Fetus, Blotted Science, and a lot more.

Until JC chimed in the oldest person in this thread was 25. Can you imagine if this was a Geezer thread?:
When i say best LPs i mean LPs where you can listen to every song on that cd and not get tired of it or have to skip any of those songs. So does anyone know of any LPs like this?
22 minutes per side and you had to manually find the space to skip a song on vinyl.
Top candidate would still be Dark Side Of The Moon.

I grew up in a time of LPs and cassettes. You didn't much random access listening. You listened to the entire album. It's inconvenient to skip songs on an LP and even more so on a cassette. Albums tended to be different back then. It was the days of album rock.
I still listen to music an album at a time. I'm listening to Don McLean's American Pie album right now. I don't just listen to the title track -- I listen to the entire album.
Pretty much every CD I have I listen to all the way through with no skipping. I don't even consider randomizing the tracks, that would be unthinkable.
I was slow to jump on the MP3 wagon because my listening is so album based. When I browse my MP3 collection I browse by album and not by song. I have very few tracks that are not part of a full album.
Classical music is a given. You naturally end up listening to the entire CD (or 2 if it's a Mahler symphony). Even if you just listen to Adagio for Strings you're going to listen to the entire CD even though Adagio for Strings will be only one short piece on the CD.
I don't own any Linkin Park or Greenday or many other new bands. I couldn't listen to an entire album of that if you paid me. It hurts the ears and grows tired before the CD is finished.

I almost never skip songs in albums. A good album is meant to be listened to in its entirety. If it isn't then its not an album its just a cd with songs.
one of my favourites lately is ztrip's "uneasy listening vol 1"
The cd I have probably listened to the most in my life though is probably Green Day's "Dookie". It was my first ever cd, my brother gave it to me when I was four. Again I listened to the whole album usualy but sometimes I would listen to song seven... or what it 14, I don't know but I'm pretty sure it was called basket case.
