What I took out of this. Here is a multi- millionaire, very , very successful musician, well known , yet he seems super, super excited on a Thursday night to talk about music with another person on his level with knowledge. He deep down is just a regular JOE, who loves music like the 55k who listens to PETES show daily. His childhood memories about The WHO / Tommy was tremendous. He was not a good co- host, he was AWESOME. Absolutely, loved this Episode. Tremendous job PETE! 👍💯

SOT has always had fantastic guests on the show but having Mike Portnoy appear on the channel is the best coup yet, what I love about him is he's a true music geek but also happens to be one of the greatest drummers on the planet. Fantastic episode and excellent job as always Pete, keep it up.

One of the best episodes ever. Pete has found his musical soulmate. Both share such unbridled enthusiasm for the music they love...like two peas in a pod. This was a real pleasure to watch. Thanks, guys!

This shouldn’t be a surprise but I’m very impressed at Portnoy’s fandom. Pete and Mike would make for an amazing duo for future shows.

This is way better than just a straight interview, hope it’s a regular thing

Glad someone mentioned DNOTD! I was hoping Portnoy would talk about it. Incidentally, I recently listened to the 1984 episode of the Album Years podcast with Steven Wilson and Tim Bowness and they failed to mention it as well.

I want to share a small personal story about pink floyd the wall, I was not much of a music listener at all, except for some random stuff you might come across on the tele. but when I was around 15 I had a math teacher in school who was also a guitar player in a small band and he was always harping on and on and on about pink floyd as if they were the second coming of Jesus himself. so one day out of sheer curiosity I was like I want to see for myself what the hell is this pink floyd. so I went to a record store and I said "give me pink floyd" and they were like "which album?" I was such a noob when it comes to music that I did not even know what an "album" was but I did not want to sound like an idiot or show that I did not know what I was talking about so I just said nonchalantly "any album is fine" lol, so he was like ok this is the the wall and this is a double album, when he said the word "double" it rung a bell in my head, hmm double I guess I am getting something more, ha ha, so I was like ye that will do. And I bought it, and the rest as they say is history! maybe someone would find my little account amusing or interesting, it is 100 percent true story word for word!

Well Out of the Blue (1977)by ELO should definitely be mentioned too.Its fantastic,sold millions and still is many people's favorite record from that era..😉

It's funny how much love "Goodbye Yellow Brick Road" gets. We played the entire album live at Reggie's in Chicago about 4 o 5 years ago? Sonus Umbra as the band for Brian Harris, who is a local guy that has Kieth Emerson chops, but wanted to be Elton. My favorites are the opening tracks and Grey seal. Gotta say that playing it is a lot less fun than listening to it. Especially "Jamaica Jerkoff" and some other sleepers, by which I mean I was bored, but not the audience. Some of those deep track tunes are really clever. I was surprised by the harmony in some of them.

Love that Jethro Tull t-shirt. Love that album.

This was really good, such genuine enthusiasm. Missed Layla and Blonde on Blonde though.

Pete, just when it seems the SoT channel hits a peak then it goes even higher. An excellent and entertaining episode and Mike Portnoy was an outstanding co-captain, including this topic he recommended. Fun show and glad to see Rundgren’s Something/Anything in the honorable mentions as that would definitely be in my top 10. Thanks to you and especially to Mike Portnoy for such a great show. Hoping he will come back at some point for another appearance.

Amazing show! the LOVE of music is just POURING out of these two guys! Thanx so much for that!

If you haven’t been to Mike’s channel and listen to him talk about his album collection, you absolutely need to!

"The Lamb lies down on Broadway" Nick D'Virgillio did some ten years ago rejuvenated the album for me. And the Giraffe/Kevin Gilbert 1994 live version Mike mentioned.

Such a great and enjoyable chat. Love it deeply. Love to hear some of my fave double albums been mentioned and happy to hear the same arguments and povs. Regards from Mexico City.

This was so much fun. Mike Portnoy is the reason I play drums! The shared stories made this so interesting and easily one of my favorite videos. Thanks Pete and Mike!

Trout Mask Replica The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway Quadrophenia Physical Graffiti The Downward Spiral Can’t wait to listen driving to work tomorrow!

Trout Mask Replica is definitely on my top 10 doubles list also..much agreed!😉👍

#1. Exile on Main Street. #2. The White Album. #3. London Calling. #4. The River. #5. Physical Grafitti.

Great show! Love listening to you two talk music together. Need to have Mike back again.

What an enjoyable show. Kudos to Pete for getting Portnoy on the show, and Mike was every bit as entertaining and engaging as expected. And great chemistry between Pardo and Portnoy. And a new idea was birthed - a show on Best Holy Trinity of Albums (three albums in a row that form an almost flawless output of musical and creative genius)

Holy crap Pete! I was thrilled when you got Simon Phillips, now you got MP? Welcome to the big-time Pete! This is awesome!! I'm jacked!

Mike Rules! Great guy! Glad he’s finally on SOT!!!

Great episode! Thank you Pete for bringing Mike Portnoy onto the channel. I enjoyed it very much. He would be an awesome guest on The Hudson Valley Squares!

Like it has been mentioned, modern double albums are now single CD's. Double CD's are triple or even quad albums. My Top 10 are .... Nightwish - Dark Passion Play (75 mins). Nightwish - Imaginaerum (74 mins). Nightwish - Endless Form Most Beautiful (78 mins). Nightwish - Human. :II: Nature (81 mins). Chicago - Transit Authority (76 mins). Jeff Wayne - War of the Worlds (95 mins). Yes - Tales from Topographic Oceans (81 mins). Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (76 mins). ELO - Out of the Blue (70 mins). Focus - Focus III (93 mins). ================================ ... and those disallowed ... Pink Floyd - A Nice Pair (Piper at the Gates of Dawn / Saucerful of Secrets). Iron Maiden - Live After Death. Uriah Heep - Live 1973. Deep Purple - Made in Japan. Various - By Invitation Only (an Alan Freeman compilation) Various - V (Virgin sampler compilation).

That was a good episode. The enthusiasm that Mr portnoy had was great. Asked the rules which was cool. Hopefully he can do another one in time get him and John on together or with Mr Levin

If Smashing Pumpkins Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness isn't on this list I call BS. YES! Mike mentions it at 1:02 :52 Thank god you didn't forget about it. I love most of these classics too but you cannot overlook one of the best selling double albums of all time in MCIS.

Saw them live on that tour. Awesome show. Garbage opened up for them...

One of the best videos ! Great chemistry and a lot in common between both Mike and Pete and both are huge music fans and collectors talking about music and having fun!

Another great show on Sea Of Tranquility. I am a huge fan of Mike Portnoy. I met Mike in Toronto in 2020. In Fact, it was my last concert. He was touring with Sons Of Apollo. They put on a great show. I have the actual shirt he wore that night. I also have a signed drumstick and the band signed all my S.O.A. CDs and DVD. He was a real cool guy to meet. He belongs on this channel because he is not only very talented and has an awesome resume. He is a rock historian like Pete and myself. He is very passionate about music. I am glad to see Mike participating on ranking albums with my new friend, Pete. I have all of those albums they have mentioned. What a treat it was to watch this episode.

The backgrounds make it look like they’re in the same room, lol.

DO A "FAVORITE BOOTLEGS" WITH PORTNOY!!!

Miss you in Dream Theater Mike. Bought the next album after you left but nothing since. It's like when Zonder left Fates I just wasn't interested any more...and I am a guitar player. We need you and Derek back for the groove and swing that you guys were developing I think. 99.98% of the time When Dream and Day Unite is my favorite piece of music of all time. Cheers!

So great to have Mike Portnoy on board. True legend! My top 3 of favourite youtube channels 3. Sea of Tranquility 2. Sea of Tranquility 1. Sea of Tranquility. Keep up the great work Pete! Love it!

There are sooooo many.l from every genre. I love All Things Must Pass, Quadraphenia, the White Album, Tales From Topographic Oceans, Live Evil, and many many more

This is gonna be awesome! I’d also love for Pete to cover bad remixes/remasters and/or albums that got great remixes/remasters and improved on the original

Great topic!

Some of my favourite studio double albums: Pink Floyd The Wall Jimi Hendrix Electric Ladyland Thin Lizzy Live and Dangerous

Anybody reading this should check out Mike Oldfield's album 1978 album "Incantations." Best thing he ever did, imo. He's got rock instruments, full string and brass and woodwind sections, choir, synthesizers and keyboards, you name it. New age/multi-instrumental/progressive music at its finest.

Oldfield really is a musical genius! Excellent mention!

Elliott Smith: New Moon is an outtakes double album released after his death that I've played thousands of times.
