Dry by PJ Harvey

great female vocals. gritty rock sound.

i couldnt find the studio album so I listened to the originals by Ornette Coleman. While my depth of knowledge of jazz music is limited I thoroughly enjoyed his work.

brazilian psych pop/rock. Might also listen to "A Divina Comedia Ou Ando Meio Desligado" by them

S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things
Feb 14 2021

really dig this group, some nice classic rock sounds with some beatles-like psychedelic nature

The Slider by T. Rex
Feb 16 2021

Didn’t really stand out to me

The Healer by John Lee Hooker
Feb 17 2021

good blues and soul

Music From The Penguin Cafe by Penguin Cafe Orchestra
Feb 19 2021

"The band's sound is not easily categorized, having elements of exuberant folk music and a minimalist aesthetic occasionally reminiscent of composers such as Philip Glass." - From their Wiki page. Would be good as background music

Debut by Björk
Feb 21 2021

such an interesting song writer. a great fusion of jazz, pop, avant-garde, and dance/club sounds

Feb 22 2021

classic album, song to song fluidity is there but honestly not a totally huge fan of the music

The Who Sell Out by The Who
Feb 23 2021

i loved some of the songs and others i didnt. not bad work from the who

The Contino Sessions by Death In Vegas
Feb 24 2021

semi dark and grungy sounds, not my cup of tea.

White Light by Gene Clark
Feb 25 2021

just some real nice folk music. Gene White - founding member of The Byrds

The Doors by The Doors
Feb 27 2021

great sounds, the doors are a hit

Joan Baez by Joan Baez
Feb 28 2021

Joan Baez has a beautiful voice. this is a great collection of folk covers

Clandestino by Manu Chao
Mar 01 2021

Manu Chao has a unique, memorable voice. not knowing the lyrics gives me an unusual appreciation for the music

Slanted And Enchanted by Pavement
Mar 04 2021

I'd like to give this a 3.5/5 and not a 3. I thought their indie rock style was impressive. Worth a revisit or perhaps a look into their later albums

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
Mar 09 2021

this album did not grab me. not a huge fan of Iggy Pop's sound on this one

i couldnt find the studio album so I listened to the originals by Ornette Coleman. While my depth of knowledge of jazz music is limited I thoroughly enjoyed his work.

Fever Ray by Fever Ray
Mar 11 2021

I was pleasantly surprised by this record. I enjoyed the music style. lots of varying vocal tones, mysterious feels to it. this is good music for soft background listening with the occasional rise in tension and sound (suspense like)

Strange Cargo III by William Orbit
Mar 12 2021

cool instrumental electronic music. some songs are vibey and some have techno or grungey sounds. i like Water From a Vine Leaf

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Mar 13 2021

love these tunes, jazz influenced, alternative rock I believe.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Mar 16 2021

crazy this album was released in 1979. this is basically what Daft Punk is built on. i give it a 4/5 for sound and historical significance

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg by Jerry Lee Lewis
Mar 17 2021

Goodness, gracious this man has true energy. The live set was an incredible experience. I will revisit this record when I need a pick up. I couldn't stop moving along with the sound

Vivid by Living Colour
Mar 18 2021

i really dig the lead vocals. electric bass slaps pretty hard. all in all, id say this is a pretty solid rock album. some socially progressive lyrics to boot

Femi Kuti by Femi Kuti
Mar 19 2021

some real groovy ensemble, african group with themes of prospertity, non violence, peace, etc

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Mar 20 2021

more groovy ensemble brazilian music

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Mar 21 2021

southern rock at it's finest right here. i'm so inclined to give it a 5 just off of their rendition of "Heard It Through The Grapevine" alone!

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Mar 22 2021

well rounded music, worth a revisit

Synchronicity by The Police
Mar 23 2021

this is a well put together album. worth it to listen to it all the way through. i thought the songs were upbeat, had compelling lyrics. the police have begun to grow on me

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Mar 24 2021

pretty solid rock music. worth diving into this bands disco further

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Mar 26 2021

bob dylan has a very unique sounding voice. besides that he has compelling lyrics and guitar compositions. I enjoyed this record. probably a 3.7/5 for me

Mar 27 2021

an interesting, melodic, instrumental group. very progressive style of rock i think. long drawn out songs with ebbs and flows of feeling. probably a 3.4/3.5 for me

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Mar 28 2021

i discovered this record a while back and it has become a classic in my library. the tunes they have produced are great pieces of rock. giving it a 4 but for me its probably a 4.3/5

Headquarters by The Monkees
Mar 29 2021

i thought this music sounded good with a beatles-esque, early rock sound. then i learned that the group was manufactured for a tv show. it lowered my interest in the group.

New Forms by Roni Size
Mar 31 2021

90's electronic. chill dnb and jazz vibes. I actually digged this album even though im not the biggest dnb fan. A good album for ambient sound

All Hope Is Gone by Slipknot
Apr 01 2021

i am not a heavy metal fan mostly due to the vocals. but i can say that i do enjoy the guitar and drum instrumentals. there were a few songs on the album which reminded me of the theme song from BMS and that I liked

Astral Weeks by Van Morrison
Apr 02 2021

not much to say other than Van Morrison is king

Face to Face by The Kinks
Apr 03 2021

really good sound here by The Kinks who are a 1960's UK rock group. probably a 3.2-3.3/5

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
Apr 04 2021

some great sounds by Donal Fagen here. jazz vibes and interesting lyrics. 3.4/5 for me
