Dartmouth Soundoff: One and Done

By Margarette Nelson, The Dartmouth Staff | 1/30/13 7:00am

You know what sucks? Hearing a great song and upon researching the artist realizing they only have put out one album. The situation only gets worse when you discover that the band has broken up, or the artist has died, or some other circumstances have occurred that will prevent any and all future music production. So, in response, I did the only thing I could do about it, and put together a list of the artists that have done this to me.

Note: For the sake of clarification, I didn't count singles, EPs, LPs, live albums or any things that aren't completed, original full-length studio releases. Apologies if the title is misleading.
