"Obviously no one knows the answer to this for definite. But I'm sure most people would have a good idea. Obviously as we're mainly old farts on here, over 50, Obviously would be albums you got into in your teens or early 20s. Quite possibly albums you no longer listen to. Or albums that you've loved for decades and still play on a fairly frequent basis. A lot of people don't really listen to albums anymore, but I get the impression that a lot of people on WHO still do. I personally do stil tend to play albums about 80% of the time. Cone on, be honest. What would you say are your most listened to albums in your life (so far)"

The Clash - Sandinista. There's a lot to listen to on a triple album! I learnt a while back that early versions of the album had the words West Ham graffitied on the brick wall behind the band members on the original front cover pic.

"Like most people I still listen to all the same stuff I did 30+ years ago, so impossible to tell which I've listened to most, but I'd guess it would be one of these: The Fall - Slates Nick Cave - Murder Ballads Birthday Party - Mutiny/Bad Seed Can - Soundtracks New Order - Lowlife Massive Attack - Mezzanine The Stooges - The Stooges Public Image Ltd - Metal Box Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks The The - Soul Mining Television - Marquee Moon Wire - Chairs Missing If not one of them then probably a compilation of Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf or Sonny Boy Williamson."

Id base it on the age of the album so I'd say over the years there are albums I always play and always will these fall into that category and are therefore most played to date.... All Mod Cons / Setting Sons /Sound Affects - The Jam London Calling - The Clash High Land Hard Rain - Aztec Camera Parallel Lines - Blondie Steve McQueen - Prefab Sprout
