Have you encountered all albums containing only few songs that you like ?

One of the latest album in which i love all songs is "An End Has A Start" by the Editors. It's wonderful!

I hate it when you have this problem, you are led into believing that the whole album is going to be a classic from the Singles they put out on the radio or leak etc, then its only those songs that it turns out you listen to all the time! Now i just preview before i buy an album, normally though Itunes or something where you can listen to 30 sec clips of each song or amazon. Also read reviews and referrals from friends, its much easier than jumping head first into buying an album only to feel like you havent got your moneys worth, because there is only about 4 songs you listen to on repeat.

Well I guess because everyone has different tastes and they try and cater for everyone, what songs you like I might not so they sell more albums that way, this is where the new way of buying directly fom the artists webpage sometimes as like the artist I help you can go to his webpage and pick listen to a short version of the songs and only buy the tracks you like, and once the tracks have been paid for the songs are sent to your email address for you to download...I test this system for the this artist and had to buy every song and every album as he has them to and then I had to pay for them as any customer then doen load them, which was about 40 song in all, luckily he rebated me for them but this will be the way in the future...much better..
