You bring up a good point... At the same time, I'm not listening to an album of 31 tracks no matter how short it is. That's gonna have to go. Completely. Sorry.

Nah, I've changed the format already and I'm comfortable with it now. Thanks for the suggestion though.

I get offended by being told I'll be offended just for questioning something as small as album length.

In fairness though, yeah, some albums with longer songs don't run as long as you might think. Let me look at Husker Du: yeah, see, over an hour. Elliott Smith as you say 52 mins so not as bad but for my own sanity I'm going to place the cutoff point at 50 mins. I think that's a reasonable time I can work with right now. Note that this is only until after October; I'll be a lot freer then but at the moment I've just too much to do.

So: no albums, double or single, that have over twelve tracks and/or run over 50 mins, just for now. The list will be readjusted later when I get time. For now though, here is a track review...
