Hahahaha

You ok, sonny jim?

Don’t get me wrong. This is not a joke answer. Compiling and sequencing an album is hard work, been there done that - twice. A lot of work goes into the order of songs etc. I’m an album kind of guy, I mostly listen to whole albums through, I don’t care much for playlists and such.

Reading the title, the first absolutely perfect album I thought of, was the one in the photo. It was a lucky accident that it happened to be excactly 10 tracks long.

Extra points for the elektronaut who knows which album it is without using google.

I’ve heard a lot of takes on “retro” production over the last ~25 years, and this is still my favorite.

For some reason I always think of Ween’s White Pepper of as a kind of a “sister album” for California. I guess they came out close to each other and had a similar all white artwork, but there’s something else in their DNA that they seem to share. The Ween -album is maybe more in the style of Thin Lizzy but still.

Separated at birth. Highly recommended. Unfortunately it has 12 tracks.

This is a difficult exercise, as a compilation would change day by day… and most of my favorite albums are usually 12 or more tracks. This one however is one of my all-time faves and happens to be exactly ten…

Here’s another fave of mine… 13 tracks, but there’s about 3 I could take or leave so maybe that counts.
