goose Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 (edited) The key to a great album? It's as simple as ABC... So, what are the greatest album closers of all time? Is it a classic track from the Age of Vinyl, or is it a hidden track from the CD Era? Or maybe, in true TRF contrarian rock-historian form, it'll be one of those closers only found on an 8-track's re-ordered tracklist. First 90 songs will make up the field.

goose Posted May 3, 2018 Author Share Posted May 3, 2018 The list so far explains why coffee is for closers. The ten listed so far would fare very well against any of the openers. Nice work, people! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
