So , today at work I was thinking about how I have some albums that never tire to me and are always my " I'm tired of everything else" picks . So I'm wondering what everybody else's are.
A few of mine are :
Cannibal Ox - The Cold Vein
Nas - Illmatic
Luscious Jackson - Natural Ingredients ....
I have more , but these are the ones that were played today .

Good topic, happens to me all the time as well. Too many albums to even think of fit the bill but a few off the top of my head as they were played recently as well:

Nas - Illmatic
ATCQ - Midnight Marauders
Leroy Hutson - Feel The Spirit
Curtis Mayfield - Curtis
Eddie Kendricks - People...Hold On
Bob Marley - Kaya
Shuggie Otis - Inspiration Information
Harlem River Drive - Harlem River Drive
Ruben Blades - a particular greatest hits comp. I have, can't remember the name
Buena Vista Social Club
Bobby Hamilton Quintet - Dream Queen (just posted this one up recently)
Donald Byrd - Places And Spaces
Donald Byrd - Stepping Into Tomorrow


A bunch more here as well but those occurred to me first.

Great Topic.

I go thru phases but there are definitely some albums that I never tire of despite umpteen-thousand listens and return to often.

Lately I've been in the rock vein:

Megadeth - Cryptic Writings
Megadeth - Countdown to Extinction
Masters of Reality - Sunrise on the Sufferbus
Faith No More - King For a Day…
the Cure - Starring at the Sea (A Singles Collection not an LP)
Rage Against the Machine - Self Titled
Stone Temple Pilots - Purple
Wire Pink - Flag
Gang Of Four - Entertainment!
Soundgarden - Down On the Upside
Alice in Chains - Jar of Flies

^just to name a few right now. I'll add on.
