  1. Some rock albums have every song getting played on the radio. Boston's first album and Led Zeppelin IV are good examples of this.
  2. The order of songs on an album can really change how people enjoy it. Great albums like Boston and Sgt. Pepper have well-thought-out song sequences.
  3. Bad song sequencing can hurt an album's success, especially if listeners miss the best songs. An example is Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run, which has a sequencing issue that many fans notice.
