I think it is fair to say the triple album is officially on the endangered species lists. For the most part this beast roamed the earth during the sixties and seventies and by the time the eighties turned into the nineties it was overshadowed by its bastard cousin the double CD. Since then the CD has been replaced by the download and the download now finds itself struggling to swim up the stream. So many changes and so quickly, no wonder the record companies are having a hard time.
