Kinda like the other thread, but let's break it down to just one album that you've played/heard the most over your entire life.
Two if you're like me and can't separate 100,000 from 100,001.

For me, it would be:
Guns 'N Roses - Appetite for Destruction or
Beastie Boys - Licensed to Ill

Off the top of my head, I'd say Dolittle but I'm sure there's something I'm forgetting.

I'd be surprised if whoever kept the score said it wasn't Dire Straits' ST or Communiqué.

I think Petty's Hard Promises would be there along with J Browne's Runnin on Empty and Buffett's A1A.

Probably Brother, Sister by mewithoutYou. Simply because it was the only interesting thing I could listen to at work when I worked for the Christian bookstore.

Lots of Petty so far, and I'd have to think Damn The Torpedoes might be mine.

That, or Who's Next.

Unfortunately it's probably Led Zeppelin 4
Could also be Ziggy Stardust or Blood on the Tracks.

I made a tape for my car in college and it had both of these albums on it.
I really don't think I've listened to anything as much.

Slayer - Decade of Aggression
Neil Young - Zuma and Harvest
Sonic Youth - Goo & Dirty
Dinosaur Jr - Bug
Danzig - s/t
Sex Pistols - Nevermind the Bollocks
Dead Milkmen - Big Lizard in my Backyard
Grandaddy - Sumday & Sophtware Slump

I'd guess Ice Cube "Death Certificate" and "Exile" are my top 2.

This might actually have been my most listened to in 2011 so far. I got the vinyl as a gift and I regularly spin it.

Either the Beatles Magical Mystery Tour or Modest Mouse-The moon and Antarctica.

The first one was the the first tape I ever owned that was mine. I think that my dad gave it to me when I was like 6 or 7 and it was the only one I had for like a year and a half until I wore it out. The modest mouse one comes from sophmore year in college during a hazy period of a break up and the discovering of acid. I listened to it every night for a unhealthy amount of time.
