Thirty-two tracks.
No real barrier to the distribution of music might just mean we're getting less curation from the artists. There was a "discipline" that 12" of vinyl imposed that I miss.
- troyvit 3y agoI was going back through Pink Floyd's discography the other day and was reminded that The Wall was a four record album! And yeah I do think that exception proves your rule. They coulda trimmed that up a wee bit.
- mondobe 3y ago*four sides, two records. And "only" 80 minutes (not derogatory, it's my favorite album).
- rav3ndust 3y agoalso a favorite album of mine, and contains one of my favorite guitar solos in history ("Comfortably Numb") the whole album is timeless, but that solo in particular has always stood out to me. David Gilmour almost evokes something ethereal in those notes.
- greenie_beans 3y agoimagine suggesting that pink floyd edit down the wall so it's shorter hahaha
- mrbluecoat 3y agoPerhaps Taylor Swift chose a middle ground by releasing both a curated set of 16 tracks, then an anthology of 31 tracks.
- wahnfrieden 3y agoThat is a decision about streaming money.
