1. Britney Spears - Circus, I know this album off by heart, every single bit, every instrumental quirk, every background vocal.
2. The Saturdays - On Your Radar
3. Sugababes - Taller in More Ways
4. Danity Kane - Welcome to the Dollhouse
5. Justin Timberlake - Future Sex Love Sounds
6. Kesha - Warrior
7. Kelly Clarkson - Breakaway

Tricky question. I'm sure I'm not alone when saying that some of my most listened too albums would probably actually only mean I regularly would listen to say 3, 4, 5 tracks, whatever, out of however many there actually are, so I've gone slightly OT possibly and I've listed the 10 albums I'll happily listen to all the way through without skipping a track:-

Nicola Roberts - Cinderella's Eyes
Soft Cell - The Art Of Falling Apart
Berlin - Pleasure Victim
Sisters Of Mercy - Vision Thing
J C Chasez - Schizophrenic
Icehouse - The Berlin Tapes
Prince - 1999
Billy Mackenzie - Transmission Impossible
The Last Shadow Puppets - The Age Of The Understatement
Joan Rivers - What Becomes a Semi Legend Most (bit of a curve ball there I know, but it was still a commercially released album!).

All of which I suppose shows the scale of my eclectic taste if nothing else!

dearmrman · 31/05/15 - 07:39

Any of Prince's albums from Dirty Mind to Lovesexy (though don't have much choice with Lovesexy as the whole album is one track so cannot skip tracks).
Pet Shop Boys - Behaviour
Depeche Mode - Violator
Counting Crows - August & Everything After
Soul Asylum - Grave Dancers Union
Lenny Kravitz - Mama Said
The Beloved - Happiness
Madonna - Like A Prayer
The Beatles - Sgt Peppers, Revolver & Rubber Soul

Probably many others especially best of albums.

Hard to remember as most of my vinyl, I never liked playing to death. Here are some LPs that over the years were dubbed to cassette and put on endless rotation:

Curtis Mayfield - Curtis (1970)

Dead Kennedys - Fresh Fruit For Rotting Vegetables (1980)

Dr Alimantado - Sons of Thunder (1981)

Sly & the Family Stone - There's A Riot Goin' On (1971)

Rick James - Come Get It (1978)

The Wailers - Natty Dread (1974)

The Stranglers - No More Heroes (1977)

Rufus featuring Chaka Khan - Rufus featuring Chaka Khan (1975)

Stiff Little Fingers - Inflammable Material (1979)

The Damned - Machine Gun Etiquette (1979)

The Slits - Cut (1979)

Carroll Thompson - Hopelessly In Love (1981)

Black Uhuru - Red (1981)

Gregory Isaacs - Extra Classic (1977)

Marvin Gaye - Trouble Man (1972)

I tend to buy albums on CD now (mostly) and if a handful arrive in the post, I've been known to put one one and play it through four or five times in its entirety i.e. for several hours (which is probably at odds with those people who don't get through a single play without track skipping).
