Pretzel Logic

Steely Dan

3/5

Solid but not my fav SD album.

Veckatimest

Grizzly Bear

4/5

Very enjoyable and different. I hear a mix of fleet foxes, steely Dan, and my morning jacket. Beautiful music.

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

4/5

Loved the singles, other songs were just medium good to good for me

Power In Numbers

Jurassic 5

3/5

Great album for setting a vibe but nothing jumped out at me, the tunes seemed to run together. Nice but nothing exceptional.

Blackstar

David Bowie

3/5

Interesting and off the wall. Only truly loved 2 songs, the rest is too experimental.

Bert Jansch

2/5

Overall not my style of music. A couple pretty instrumental guitar songs but not a fan of the rest.

I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got

Sinead O'Connor

2/5

Very mixed feelings on this one. 30/70 lite to dislike. Couple songs were great, didn’t enjoy the rest.

Behaviour

Pet Shop Boys

4/5

Very enjoyable album from start to finish, lush sounds, great beats.

Bayou Country

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

4/5

Super enjoyable album, front to back.

Blur

3/5

Solid Brit pop rock album with some unique stuff, obviously created by strong musicians. Doesn’t have as nostalgic a vibe for me as similar records from that time period, which might skew my option slightly more negative. 3.3

Highway to Hell

AC/DC

4/5

Great guitar album, enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Fairly homogeneous but lots of fun. Really rocks.

Heaven Or Las Vegas

Cocteau Twins

5/5

Beautiful ephemeral pop that I could listen to on loop forever.

Groovin'

The Young Rascals

3/5

Fun psychedelic pop, nothing amazing but pleasant and nice . Loved grooving, how can I be sure, and opening track.

Deserter's Songs

Mercury Rev

2/5

Blah, didn't enjoy. Didn't like the wobbly theramine noises in a lot of the songs, thought they sounded pretentious.

First Band On The Moon

The Cardigans

3/5

Enjoyed a few songs on here, but overall a fun and forgettable record. Some places the vocals were too twee, some they felt just right. 3

Tubular Bells

Mike Oldfield

2/5

Impressive feat as an album but there have been much better created since. Kind of cool and atmospheric but not worth numerous listens. 2.3

The United States Of America

2/5

Had a couple cool songs that reminded me of beach boys mixed with jefferson airplane but also a lot of noise. 2.4

Arc Of A Diver

Steve Winwood

4/5

Loved this! Great songs, awesome music, cool vocals. Super solid. 4.3

Different Class

Pulp

4/5

Great britnpop album, probably the most theatrical and dynamic of all the Brit pop singers. 3.9

Physical Graffiti

Led Zeppelin

4/5

Amazing as always for LZ, but still very indulgent. Some perfect songs but then some that just go on for too long. 4.0

Deja Vu

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

5/5

Absolutely love this album. Beautiful songs with some awesome voices/guitars. 4.7

Emergency On Planet Earth

Jamiroquai

3/5

Fun, funky album but all runs together. Really nice, not amazing. 3.2

Odelay

Beck

2/5

Meh. Lots of pretentious weirdness just for the sake of it. 2.2

Led Zeppelin III

Led Zeppelin

3/5

Not my fav LZ album, too folky but some pretty songs. 3.5

Synchronicity

The Police

3/5

Musically very solid and eclectic (not always in a positive way). Some jarring changes that make it not super cohesive as an album but I really like the songs. More groove than I expected. 3.6

Searching For The Young Soul Rebels

Dexys Midnight Runners

3/5

Fun! Much more enjoyable than I expected, more talented than their famous single would have you believe. Fun, mod rock new wave 80s weirdness album. 3.5
