Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield

This record is a beautiful snowglobe of the late 60s period. Classy, perfectly arranged orchestrations gently roll down like snowflakes on a landscape and Dusty's voice glows gold with the warmth of the hearth.

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino
Jan 14 2021

An interesting mix of blues, jazz and rock. The recording privileges voice over the instruments which is a shame because it sounds like the playing is good. I like this.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield

This record is a beautiful snowglobe of the late 60s period. Classy, perfectly arranged orchestrations gently roll down like snowflakes on a landscape and Dusty's voice glows gold with the warmth of the hearth.

Transformer by Lou Reed
Jan 18 2021

I have always had a difficult time with Transformer, I love Walk on the Wild Side and Perfect Day, Satellite of Love is good but I find Lou Reed's country-blues thing just not my thing. I know this is a great album but doesn't feel that consistent to me.

Architecture And Morality by Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark
Jan 22 2021

Seems like an influential record in the Electro-Pop genre, Joy Division sounds like OMD. Some nice, experimental yet accessibly pop songs.

Jan 25 2021

Maybe some songs in the album, Like The Fear, are so great that makes the other songs look less good than they are.

Slippery When Wet by Bon Jovi
Jan 27 2021

What a collection of chart-topping head-banging hair-metal anthems. Talk about a genre classic. This used to represent all that was wrong in the world of rock but the mellower disposition of mature age helped me appreciate it for the great craft it is.

Court And Spark by Joni Mitchell
Jan 28 2021

It's OK. Hard to get into for me.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Mar 08 2021

Amazing record, easily 10 years ahead of its time.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
May 19 2023

It's OK, sounds like a showcase of 90s dance music styles with a couple of very decent tunes.

The Blueprint by JAY Z
May 22 2023

It's OK, I guess the Eminem song is the best one

Vento De Maio by Elis Regina
Jun 24 2024

Not my cup of tea but a very well made record in the Brazilian tradition

Kimono My House by Sparks
Jun 26 2024

Very glammy and free spirited, definitely an influential album but not my beat
