For the purpose of the present review, an album is taken to be any release
of 3
songs or more, packaged in a hard-cover sleeve displaying artwork (and in
some
instances, incorporating liner-notes). Only original albums are covered here.
Compilations in the various formats have been ignored in order
to focus attention on
the manner in which the artist's works were first
introduced. Extended-play recordings
(EPs) whose tracks appear on original LPs
are also excluded. In a few cases
re-issues on Compact Disc have featured alternate takes or
edited tracks.
This topic is the subject of a separate discussion.
