Classics all the way down. I especially liked "Brooklyn (Owes The Charmer Under Me)", along with the songs you named.

Yea, it definitely qualifies as a "no skips" album.

OK, so this is something that has always fascinated me. The "guitar solo" in Reelin' In The Years is, to my mind, actually four guitar solos. After chorus #2, there are two solos played back to back. And then again, two solos back to back after chorus #3. Who does that? And, almost as rare, the song actually fades out during a guitar solo. Aside from being an unbelievably well constructed song for a debut album, RITY is the best kind of earworm. I can listen to that *almost* anytime I hear those first few guitar licks. And don't even get me started on what the lyrics mean...........

Only a fool would say that, on that album. I bought all their albums as they came out. Love that band. Still have the vinyl. I’m probably about your Dad’s age.

This is a great idea! I honesty didn't realize Discogs had a randomizer feature.

Yes! You can either shake your phone whilst in the app or selected random on your collection page if in a browser. I am one of those crazy people that catalogs every sing record I have on Discogs too.

Nice! I'm working towards cataloging mine, but adding them in one at a time as I play them.

Thankfully I started when I have half as many LPs as I have now. It was a snow day and I only had one kid at the time, haha.
