[bomp] Double Albums

practice that has tapered off of late. favorite doubles? >>

It's tapered off because now many bands are just making overlong single disc 
CDs...some of which are actually longer than some of the double albums of the 
1960s/early 1970s. ('Freak Out' will *just* fit on a C-60....the readout time 
says it's over an hour but I've never had the tape run out on me when I've 
taped it for others...I think you have to put 'You're Probably Wondering Why I'm 
Here' at the start of Side Two though.)

And speaking of 'Freak Out,' that's my pick for favorite double.
