Great stuff you mentioned. I realize personal taste goes a long way deciding what gets included but I would add The Who "Tommy" and "Quadrophenia" and Cream "Wheels of Fire".
Hi Glen…..that double Bruce is an excellent album! Zep Phys Graffiti? Yep! Beatles? Yep! Nice picks, sir- my list would be dramatically different…this might be a fun thread! 😎👍
Songs in the Key of Life was so grand it needed 2 lps and a 7in. to get it all in. First purchase with my own money! Bela was my entry to bluegrass with Tales from the Acoustic Planet in 1999. I'm one of those weirdos that still listens to Hackney Diamonds, I still really enjoy it!
Glen, I completely agree with your top 2 picks Dylan and Excile are classic double albums! I would have dropped some of the Chicago records and put in Skull and Roses from the Dead but otherwise a great list
Good point about what makes a REAL double record, versus a more recent album that requires two records. That would be hard to determine what post 85 releases may actually qualify :)
Nice list. Yes's Tales has always been a problem for me. I was a huge fan when it came out, so i really wanted to like it. But it never did it for me. I've tried through the years, even recently, but still a no. As you mentioned abou CTA, this one may have been better if it was three sided. That was also Rick Wakeman's opinion. They forced extra material to fit a double because the album was too long for two sides. I'm glad you mentioned in a reply that you stuck to studio albums only for this video. When i didn't see Fillmore East included, i was in shock, lol. Cheers!
Hey Glen! Speaking old man to semi-old man, I agree on your take of what qualifies as a true "double album." 3 was a good point to drop off from Chicago, for me "Saturday in the Park" killed them. I have 8 of your top 10, but 4 of them I never listen to. Too funny that you mentioned the dust collector 'Hackney Diamonds.' I recorded a video tribute to you yesterday that will post today....Cheers!
Since I grew up mainly listening to CDs (just had about two or three years with cassettes and vinyl) double albums really don't mean that much to me. I had/have a few that you have shown on CD and it really is not the same. Love the rant about the Ringo album, only listened to it for Molly, Billy and the Lowell sisters (aka Larkin Poe) and was really disappointed how small their contribution was. What a wasted opportunity.
Hi Glen!!! To me double records are hit or miss..... some are masterpieces, but many are just ok records with to many songs or music bloated in in a cd or double vinyl. to me the highlights have to be Zeppelin and the Stones. cheers and be well

Blonde on Blonde would probably be my No 1, too ❤
No London Calling? The Wall ?
Nice video again, thanks for sharing
I think The Wall is a bit bloated and I love The Clash but I don’t have either of those on vinyl so didn’t mention them..
My favourite double studio album on LP is probably Freak Out but that can change. Great video Glen.
Such a great album..thanks Pat..❤👍glen
Love that Marshall Tucker album!
Awesome..it is a great record no one ever mentions
Very good Glen. I have Exile at #1 and BOB at #2. Visions is also my favourite Dylan tune. Fun stuff.
It is a coin flip..thanks Jeff..

Love to see your list..I tried to stick with studio albums..there are a lot of amazing double live albums..enough for its own video..

Finally someone else who likes Bela..😁😁😁😁Keeping the dust off Hackneyed Diamonds..atta boy👍
Good list. Blond on Blond is the best album ever, single or double.
You are correct sir👍❤
Nice list, Billy is making his way higher and higher in your list
Billy is the best and that album is 10 / 10
@GlenKellawayfromthebasement I thought I was the best
@@Americanasam1994 if you were a record you would be number one🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
@GlenKellawayfromthebasement aww shucks

I will never argue with a Dead album..

It’s up for debate..I think us old timers might be more picky..

Well I hated all Yes albums in the seventies..but love them all now..
Frampton Comes Alive. Beatles, (red trim, and blue trim, best of) Beach Boys Endless Summer.

lol..cool..can hardly wait to get roasted..
I'm somewhat surprised that Live/Dead wasn't on your vinyl list this time around.
Kept it to studio albums..

Totally agree..how can you have such talented musicians on your album and not showcase that talent..More surprised at T Bone Burnett than Ringo..
My #1 is Physical Graffiti. The frank zappa album I would have put would have been uncle meat because it is the first zappa album I heard.
I won’t argue with your choices👍👍👍

They can be bloated for sure and I love your two favourites..
Songs In The Key Of Life is a step down from the previous three single albums.
The only one of those I think is better, is "Innervisions".
They are all great but It is the best one in my opinion..
Pink Floyd - The Wall!
Glen, you left out Layla, van morrison It's too late to stop now, little feat waiting for Columbus, yellow brick road....
I left those out because I don’t own them on vinyl..Waiting For Columbus was left off because I was focusing on studio albums.
Waiting For Columbus?
For sure..I was trying to stick with studio albums..live double albums could be my next video👍
Zappa, Yes, Led Zeppelin and The Beatles for the win!! 😃
