Soft Machine : Third Soft Machine: BBC 1967-1971 Who: Quadaphrenia Chicago: Chicago Transit Authority (and I've gone round full circle and stand Free Form Guitar, once more) I like many other double albums, but can't take them in one sitting, unlike the above. |

One that hasn't been mentioned yet: Focus 3 GYBE! - Lift Your... GG - Playing The Fool Floyd - Umma Gumma The Softs - Third
Generally though, double albums tend to be pushing it. TFK's Unfold The Future springs to mind. There was a mind-blowing single disc in there somewhere, we got a flabby double one instead. |

Ah, the innocence of youth! They were double LP's in their original format, but now fit on a single CD. |

Moonflower - Santana- Not a great fan of the album,but the Live version of EUROPA is in my top 20 favourite tracks of all time! I love the way that Carlos sounds like a horn section on part of this glorious instrumental track.
