“Hours” might be excessive. But I love music, and used to play as well, so I‘ve been known to repeat tracks quite a bit if it’s a track that reveals new things with each listen, or I’m trying to make sense of something, or it had something I wanted to integrate into my own playing or whatever.
There were several tracks on Aphex Twin’s “Syro” that I listened to over and over on headphones, just taking in the programming, the subtle changes, etc.
When I was 16 or 17 and discovered Tom Waits, I got through “Bone Machine” that way the first time. Just listening to a track over and over before I moved on to the next one, as my teenage brain was trying to figure out “what the fuck IS this record??”
