Rain Dogs by Tom Waits

"Rather have a bottle in front of me, than a frontal lobotomy" - Tom Waits. Enuff Said.

Vincebus Eruptum by Blue Cheer

Not for me ... at the time I could see it as breaking new ground, maybe. From the current paradigm, it feels derivative of all influences that are contributing to the sound, its a half-formed thought of what music should be. I imagine I hate people that point to this album as life changing.

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Yeah yeah yeahs, I know Karen O, and two fellas Amazing wall of noise.

Maggot Brain by Funkadelic
Jan 14 2021

Forgot about this gem - should set a reminder to listen to it with the winter solstice or some other oft-forgotten day of import.

Fishscale by Ghostface Killah
Jan 19 2021

Wutang Clan Forever, maybe this album only once in a while - a few tracks were amazing, several samples felt juvenile.

Moon Safari by Air
Jan 21 2021

Not in my top 1000 albums of all time! Even referencing the release date, not sure this one has much wow factor.

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Jan 22 2021

This is the one that turned me off in College - on a revisit it's better but still requires a bong hit to fully appreciate.

Tigermilk by Belle & Sebastian
Jan 26 2021

Reminds me of 2000 - Hope St. Always preferred Boy with the Arab Strap, think the pop jangle of Dirty Dream #2, sold me on Belle and Sebastian.

Queen II by Queen
Jan 27 2021

Queen II, wow - not sure how I missed this one an acid fueled love child of Marc Bolan and Abba, when playing with stereo was still novel. #OhMrFarhenheit

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Feb 01 2021

Reminds me of being 16(ish) - really great album

Feb 02 2021

Revisiting this was surprisingly enjoyable. Maybe too many exposures from dope smoking hippy kids in college turned me off? Maybe an older?

Fragile by Yes
Feb 03 2021

Walked into this one with preconceived notions - and I still maintain them. Rock Classical Guitar - c'mon.

Rapture by Anita Baker
Feb 04 2021

"Growing on me? No. Lady Michael McDonald with a keytar, bleh."

Goo by Sonic Youth
Feb 05 2021

“Sonic youth, High School. Now I'm Old, damn noisy kids Goo did not age well.”

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Feb 08 2021

Yeah yeah yeahs, I know Karen O, and two fellas Amazing wall of noise.

Aja by Steely Dan
Feb 10 2021

My ears naked lunch’d but gently, oh so gently. Thumbs up - Don’t judge me.

Dec 31 2021

Greatest hits, not quite Jamaican Jerk-off a gem you won't find elsewhere.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Dec 15 2022

1959 Really! That voice though inflection and warmth.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Dec 16 2022

Nostalgic soundtrack Emotes feelings of a time simpler and sunny
