Home Is Where The Music Is by Hugh Masekela
Jan 13 2021

Songs that made me look and ask "what's the name of this one?" The Big Apple Maseru - great piano section w/ double stops & uptempo baseline starting around 4:00 Inner Crisis - great groove Maesha Not a bad album overall, worthy of another listen - particularly the first half where I was a bit distracted. The last song can be skipped, though

Bad by Michael Jackson
Jan 15 2021

What's a pederast, Walter?

Jan 18 2021

Impressed that I made it all the way through this one, not my jam. But better than I was expecting

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Jan 19 2021

Some killer extended jams in here. Very raw sound but also very well arranged. Haven't listened to much Zappa but this shows me that I should

Trans Europe Express by Kraftwerk
Jan 20 2021

As far as German electronic music goes, I guess this isn't bad? Sadly, I couldn't make it all the way through this one.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jan 21 2021

Not bad, but nothing that I loved or that really caught my attention musically

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Jan 22 2021

Shabby Doll caught my attention. The rest of the album was largely meh. Some interesting arrangements here and there but a little too poppy for me

Brothers by The Black Keys
Jan 26 2021
You Are The Quarry by Morrissey
Jan 28 2021

First song was hilarious. Rest of the album sounded about the same, just with different lyrics for each song. Maybe shoulda paid more attention to the lyrics because they're clearly the focus of the music. Beyond the lyrics, there's not much here musically.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Jan 29 2021

That was fun!

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Feb 01 2021

Really feel like this should be a 3.5 but gonna round up

Revolver by Beatles
Feb 04 2021

Solid Beatles album, but not their best
