But I don't write a full capsule review of anything I haven't heard five times. It's usually closer to ten.
I was a big, big fan of Jimmy Burton. Anything with him on, I used to perk up and listen to it over and over and over again.
There is nothing like a Bach fugue to remove me from a discordant moment... only Bach hold up fresh and strong after repeated playing. I can always return to Bach when the other records weary me.
My favorite records are not easy - they're not records that reveal everything to you the first time out.
'The White Album' is a record I can go back to time and time again, and always find something different that I never noticed or appreciated before.
After a lifetime of listening to every Floyd album pretty much all the time - they're etched - 'Animals' is the one I can listen to again and again.
If I like a song, I'll just keep playing it, and it never gets old.
