I often think about stellar albums. The ones where they're really isn't a skip-able track. Off the top of my head, these come to mind: The Beach Boys Pet Sounds, Collective Soul Collective Soul (blue album), Bush 16 Stone, and Green Day Dookie. What are some of your perfect albums?

Second Alan Parsons Project album I've seen in this list! I Robot was one of my favorite records growing up, but I really thought they were a forgotten band.

Jon Hopkins' Immunity is one of my favorite albums for work and study as well as active listening. It can slide into the background without being drowsy or melancholy.

I got to see the Alan Parsons Project live about a year ago! It was a great show but Alan Parsons is definitely showing his age. It was an anniversary tour for "Eye in the Sky" delayed a couple years by COVID. I guess I feel bad that I'm hoping he lives long enough to get to a Stereotomy anniversary...
