It's safe to say that, today, singles are more popular than albums. But there was a time when the album, as a concept, was more relevant. Putting an album together was not just about compiling some songs and presenting them in a single product; the conception of an album considered a number of things, including a theme, song order, running time, and a lot more.
Releasing a double album in a time when only vinyl was printed was sometimes necessary because all the songs wouldn't fit on just one record, but this was not always the case. Some music artists purposely released double albums as a concept, and for some, it paid off.
In this gallery, we bring you some of the best double albums of all time. Click on and give them a listen.
