Bookends
Simon & Garfunkel
Surprisingly trippy for 1968 thought it would be pure folk but it was real interesting!

White Blood Cells
The White Stripes
Jack white is a somewhat imperfect singer and maybe that is part of the whole point - I only /really/ liked 3 songs on that album the rest was samey grunge sound
note to self : dont like grunge

The Atomic Mr Basie
Count Basie & His Orchestra
Only 4 up tempo 'explosive' songs the rest was kinda basic ngl. I have a love for jazz but some of these were too simple laid back saloon songs. Good to improvise with

Dusty In Memphis
Dusty Springfield
songs would be made perfect if sung by an actual soul singer but dusty brings a little different vibe i guess but part of me wonders why i should listen this and not a black singer
she was signed to the same label as Aretha so it makes sense

Bad
Michael Jackson
what is the moral stance on listening to a bad persons' music and enjoying it? should we have separation of artist and art? I think the answer to this is: if the artist commits the crime in the here and now and you are aware of it you should stop supporting them as they will receive the benefits of your support but in this case a) michael jackson isn't receiving anything from my listens b) when he recorded this album hopefully he wasn't up to any nasty behaviour
in answer to that - brilliant album - man in the mirror was the blowing in the wind of the 80s. Most of the songs to this day hold up very well and don't sound corny (minus i just cant stop loving you).
some of the most iconic basslines

The Seldom Seen Kid
Elbow
Experimental enough to not be dull and familiar enough to not be annoying
Did not expect it to be this good! A modern white band I like. How strange.

Great pop songs at the beginning however the ballads at the end really let the album down..

Excellent metal album got me pumped- some epic guitar solos although questionable (pedo) and bad lyrics on two particular songs

Good. Not the best Bowie has to offer course- heavily funk influenced some songs were forgettable though
