| | Double album - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | A double album is an audio album of sufficient length that two units of the medium in which it is sold (especially records and compact discs) are necessary to contain the entirety of it. | | | Recording artists often think of double albums as a single piece artistically; however, there are exceptions such as Pink Floyd's Ummagumma, one live album and one studio record packaged together, and OutKast's Speakerboxxx/The Love Below, consisting of one practical solo album by each member of the hip-hop duo. | | | Albums which were originally packaged as double records are often sold on a single compact disc, such as the aforementioned Blonde on Blonde, The Who's Tommy, The Rolling Stones' Exile on Main Street, and Prince's 1999 (though not in all cases, such as the Beatles' White Album). |

| | Double albums happen for supergroups after the release of the Album that Made them Big. | | | Karin sings alone at the piano, and this is where the album drops anchor. | | | Since the album’s angst seems capable of capsizing it at this point, the band fortunately lets the sunshine in with “Show Me”—a clear choice for the first single. |

| | As the Beatles' "White" Album was flipped with Jigga's "Black," it was dubbed the "Grey" album. | | | I like DJ Cheap Cologne's Double Black Album (Jay-Z's Black Album mixed with Metallica's Black Album) a lot better than DJ DangerMouse's Grey Album (Jay-Z's Black Album mixed with the Beatles' White Album). | | | Both Metallica and Jay-Z have a "Black" album, so this CD is known as the "Double Black" CD. |

| | In January, LA-Based DJ Danger Mouse released The Grey Album, a mix of Jay-Z's vocals from The Black Album with music built from samples of the Beatles' White Album. | | | Cheap Cologne would use Metallica's eponymous "Black Album" as a backdrop for Jay-Z's Black Album's vocals. | | | When, in December of 2003, Jay-Z released an acapella version of his final record, The Black Album, many DJs took it as an opportunity to test their mixing skills. |

| | Neil Diamond Album Overview 1973-1980 |
| | Every song on the album is a cover of songs by other writers. | | | But, looking at it realistically, his subsequent live albums are vocally not as good as LATG- it's a darn shame that you will listen to it, knowing that he would never again sound that good on a live album. | | | This was Lee Holdridge's last album with Neil, as their partnership was terminated over a dispute over songwriting credits for the film. |

| | Even when they envisioned it as a double album they still wanted the theme of one disc to be "orcoustral" and the other electric. | | | It's widely known that the band envisioned AV1 and WS to be one double album but released them as separate discs for practical purposes, sequestering the more "organic"/acoustic songs onto AV1 and the more "electric" songs onto WS. | | | Yes, but those of us who think the album should have been double are purposefully messing with the idea of one being acoustic and one electric. |
