Albums that are fun to listen to (pop, punk, rock)

For me, this is the ultimate:

It's crap compared to NMTB, but it's so entertaining (assuming you skip the McLaren tracks). The Johnny B. Goode breakdown always makes me smile, and the juvenile asides in the title track are great ("Elvis Presley died in 1959, Ian Dury, ****ney fraud").

Runner up:

This, and Vol. 3, are two of the very few albums I can listen to over and over again. The songs are cheesy, and Lynne's production is arguably inappropriate, but it feels so good!

Pretty much any Groovie Ghoulie album....It's always a good time and humourous at times.
Oh and the canadian pop punk band ChixDiggit! albums...fun things to listen to.

hmm...Well, "fun" I think of something that get's up and makes you want to move and just rock out too....If it's good, I guess it could also be fun if your getting into the music.

The Black Arabs should have had a full album

I have to say, the transition is hilarious. At the end of Roadrunner, Johnny asks, "Do we know any other f---ing people's songs?" and then the disco beat of Anarchy kicks in. Classic!

I don't know...even though I think they're great albums and I enjoy listening to them, I don't play Blood On The Tracks, Psychocandy, The Ghost Of Tom Joad, John Prine, etc. when I want to have fun.
