Popular Reviews

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz

Relaxing warm smooth Jazz. I like it, but not something I would listen to often. Not very exciting/energetic. Definitely cozy and romantic.

Suede by Suede

Crooning power ballad after ballad, wanna be smiths.

Rain Dogs by Tom Waits

I don't like his voice. the music is kinds jarring as well. It is very dark. Base licks and guitar riffs are nice. Big Black Mariah is good-Very blues rock. Rain Dogs (the song) might have won me over. Over all a tough album to listen to, I did enjoy a couple of songs. Singapore is probably the most interesting song, not saying I like it, just am compelled by the playfulness in the music, and the darkness in the lyrics/vocals.

Entertainment by Gang Of Four

This is fun, and chaotic.

Master Of Puppets by Metallica

One of my favorite albums. Most Definitely my on ramp into metal.

I don't think I have ever hear "Within you without you" before... I could have sworn I had listened to this album before, but I must have only listened to the A-side. "When I am Sixty-Four" is great. "Lovely Rita"- Are the Beatles boot-lickers? I want to rewatch "Across the Universe". There are so many little nods to this album in the show. "A Day in the Life" Is a bit too on the nose for me this week, but damn it is good.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Jan 16 2021

It’s Rush! Not my favorite album by them, but is quite good.

Rio by Duran Duran
Jan 17 2021

Really not a fan. This is my least favorite album so far.

Clandestino by Manu Chao
Jan 18 2021

Clearly talented, just not my thing.

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Jan 19 2021

One of my favorite albums. Most Definitely my on ramp into metal.

Elvis Is Back by Elvis Presley
Jan 20 2021

Its Elvis, nothing to complain about.

Kid A by Radiohead
Jan 21 2021

I forgot to take notes while listening...

Jan 22 2021

I am a huge fan of this from the first track. I love the driving baseline. Lyrics are poignant. There is sounds that play at the end of each track before getting cut... It doesn't lead into the next track, wonder what it is for.

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Jan 24 2021

Seemed to be in the CCR vein of rock

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Jan 27 2021

I haven't listened to a ton of Elvis Costello. I enjoyed this album, very one note... it might just be the dynamics of a-side vs b-side, but i enjoyed the first 6 songs way more than the rest.

Garbage by Garbage
Jan 28 2021

Absolutely loved the 90's grunge vibe. Felt a lot like Eve 6 with the hard cuts in the sound of the music.

Little Earthquakes by Tori Amos
Jan 29 2021

It was fine, not amazing. Seemed like Sarah McLachlan.

Sail Away by Randy Newman
Jan 31 2021

You got a friend in me... I actually don't like his voice, it is very round, if that makes sense. The lyrics were also just meh. That said I like the feeling I get while listening to the albums.

16 Lovers Lane by The Go-Betweens
Feb 01 2021

Its' fine, its just a cooing lovey album

Suede by Suede
Feb 03 2021

Crooning power ballad after ballad, wanna be smiths.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Feb 04 2021

I enjoy the RHCP, but I am not sure what they are doing on this list. I lost track of how many times the lyric "suck my dick" was sung.

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners
Feb 06 2021
Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Feb 07 2021

Some of the lyrics are a stretch: "They expect you to give a check to a tax deductible organization"

Feb 09 2021

80's electro-pop with a dark edge. I love that the music video for the band was banned in the US for Annie Lennox being a "Transvestite" out to confuse the youths.

Harvest by Neil Young

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes

I love punk chicks screaming into the mic. This is fun.
