    Right out of college, I did some writing for a culture site (that paid criminally little money) and one of the posts I wrote was about awesome songs that are longer than eight minutes. I believe my top five was:

    1. Bruce Springsteen - Jungleland
    2. Iron & Wine - The Trapeze Swinger
    3. Something Corporate - Konstantine
    4. Bob Dylan - Desolation Row
    5. Prince - Purple Rain

    If I’m making the list now, number 1 is still the same, but “Purple Rain” probably gets the runner-up slot.

    If the question is songs longer than six minutes, though, that opens up a whole lot of additional options.

    I listen to way too much music that runs over six minutes to answer that.

    There's putting a color or two from the cover art into the variant, and then there's this.

  7. Whose dad's collection is that? There's hardly any women in there and none of it is even from this century

    i bought my sister a copy of Abbey Road on vinyl for Christmas years ago (and own the old Beatles remastered CD boxset from 2009), but own none on vinyl, nor do i really care to. might make an exception for Rumours and Kind of Blue, but neither are a huge priority

    I mean, who doesn’t like The Beatles even a little bit?

    Yeah, like, is it really surprising that a lot of people own some of the most foundational albums in music history?
