Fugazzi Grand III : My Top 500 Albums (#184)

 (#184, 69 Love Songs by The Magnetic Fields)

For those of you just paying attention to this list to see where the greatest triple albums of all time fall, the road ends here.  This is the greatest triple album of all time.  This album is not an ode to the popular sexual position the kiddies are all talking about, but rather Stephen Merritt's attempt to write 100 love songs.  He stopped at 69, and recorded them all.  This is nearly a three hour experience, and I still make time for it frequently, usually on weekends.








Take a listen to "Come Back From San Francisco", "Papa Was a Rodeo" and "I Can't Touch You Anymore" ...
