hehe - yeah, no worries mate, just saying I sometimes wanted to see "real" double albums... but totally agree with your selections (like 1% thought). Then there's the bloody legit single albums released as double albums on vinly... haahahaha. Ok, I'll chill out. Said it before and will say it again, fantastic list mate.

Seriously, Seth, you have a point. But I just went with albums I have which are double vinyls like The Cure and Chili Peppers. Compilations is cheating a bit but there you go!

I'd be curious what this would look like without the compilations or "long 90s albums released as single albums but possibly would have been double albums if they were released in the 70s"... hehe. Great list!

Very good. I wonder what that album called Hell by James Brown is like. I never heard of it. I bet it's a concept album. It's from 1974
