I try to listen to every album by my favorite artists. In the past, it used to be hard to do. You used to be able to collect every album by your favorite band & artist by buying every album but now that “streaming music” services is finally here with the likes of Spotify & Apple music… that makes listening to every album by your favorite artists a lot easier.

Some people are very selective of what albums to hear by their favorite artists but not me. I find it important to listen to ALL OF THEM. If you want to show that you’re a die-hard fan then you must listen to them all, even all the live albums.

I don’t listen to the entire discography of albums by every band & artists out there… just the ones that I love like Led Zeppelin, the Allman Brothers, Metallica, Black Sabbath, Megadeth, Dream Theater, Motorhead, Kiss, Joe Bonamassa, Beth Hart, David Bowie, The Grateful Dead, etc.

On Apple Music, I still got more artist to listen to… their entire body of work. Right now, I’m going through KISS albums.

Next I’m thinking of going through Joni Mitchell, Rush, Ac/DC,  Sonic Youth and maybe Peter Gabriel. Not sure yet.

It’s important to listen to all albums by your favorite artists. That way you can know all their songs and know their history. It also shows that you’re a true lover of music.  Don’t be so selective and picky, listen to it all. That’s how you support the artist.

Listening to as much music as possible is good for you. It’s good for your mind and it’s good for your own music if you’re a musician. Get inspired and learn that there is all kinds of music out there.
