461 Ocean Boulevard

Eric Clapton

3/5

not a lot of "guitar god" clapton on this but solid cuts. I shot the sheriff just made me want to listen to bob marley though.. claptons version is not great.

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

3/5

Quite dated, if this was a first listen I would be underwhelmed. I have nostalgia and that holds up but outside of that little is brought to the table. Here Today is a banger though.

L.A. Woman

The Doors

some good dirty, smelly, filthy rock and roll
