I think it's rather that it's just something that doesn't happen often.
I've most likely got a lot of this life still to live though and fully
expect to be grabbed by other albums in the same way (or better) in future,
whether they be old or new...
It's a horrible thought though that some albums I (or anyone else) might
consider utterly perfect are never going to be heard by me... this list
helps to lessen this of course, but there's no way to know of everything
ever made, and some of it's just going to be oblivious to me forever
(This is common sense to most, but it is something I find very disturbing
sometimes, although it's not quite as scary as the concept of eternity.
An eternity of not knowing my favourite song/album? I'm not even going to
think about that one.)

Thanks for the list. I have Unknown Pleasures, but it sounded a bit flat
on the first couple of listens (I'll give it some more chances). The rest
of them I'll check out when and if I can...
