The Depths of Double Albums: The Beatles, Guns N Roses and Beyond

[@jdd3786]

Use Your Illusion is not a double album. It's two separate albums.

It's two separate double ablums- a vinyl record can only hold roughly 40/45 minutes of music, and I believe both Use Your Illudions clock in around 70. It is possible each one fits on one CD though

@@vincentturnersnotes In 1992 when I bought the albums, they came on 2 separate cassetes: Use Your Illusion I & II. If the sequencing is changed to fit a vinyl record, that doesn't make it a double album.

Fair enough, I guess by the early 90's CDs (and cassettes) had replaced Vinyl as the dominant form of music consumption. I appreciate the input

@vincentturnersnotes Yea man, appreciate the video. IMO If it was the artist's intention for it to be a double album, it would've been released on 2 tapes or 2 cds because that's how it would've been consumed at the time. Yet, the albums were released on a single disc or cassette.
