Amazing Album Sides

There are amazing album sides that rock and swing from the first song through the last. The albums they come from are usually outstanding, but one side seems to get played over and over.

I'm going to start with a somewhat obscure and less obvious choice...Talking Heads' "Remain In Light" Side 1: "Born Under Punches (The Heat Goes On)", "Crosseyed and Painless", "The Great Curve".

Which one does it for you?

I'd put the entire second album, or CD of Jimi Hendrix Electric Ladyland as one of the best all time rock albums.

Starting with "Rainy Day, Dream Away", then "1983 (A Mermaid Should Turn to be)", "Moon Turn the tides...", "Still Raining, Still Dreaming" "House Burning Down" "All Along the Watchtower" and ending with "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)"

I'm sure many other good ones will come out, but this album to me is one of the best put together musical pieces in rock history, and that rainy day groove rides right on through the entire thing.

An oldie but a goodie; Rod Stuart's Atlantic Crossing.--It has a slow side and a fast side (called ,such) Depending on one's mood.
