Pictures At An Exhibition by Emerson, Lake & Palmer

I'm a sucker for prog rock, I love this reimagining of classical songs. Will def revisit this one many times

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson

Very atmospheric album, some great compositions, and also lots of crazy weird stuff. I enjoy the variety while still maintaining a sort of mysterious vibe throughout.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk

Very unique. It blows my mind that such a refined and crisp electronic, synthy sound was possible in 1978.

I gotta admit I had some stereotypical assumptions about how good a "female rapper" could be, and was a bit skeptical. Despite this, I ended up really enjoying this album and was happily proved wrong. It has great lyricism and great musical accompaniment. I love the themes as well. Well done!

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield

So funky and tight. Great variety of tunes. Love the additional textures and flourishment added throughout tracks. This is one of my new favorites

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners

Violator by Depeche Mode

Its unique enough, but across the album it all sounds pretty much the same.

Back At The Chicken Shack by Jimmy Smith
Jul 12 2021

Admittedly not the most engaging listen, but great soothing jazz for background noise from great players!

I gotta give it credit for trying to be unique, but it is grating at times

The Sun Rises In The East by Jeru The Damaja
Jul 21 2021

Love the unpolished gritty sound from early 90s hip hop albums. Plus this is fire and a lot of fun to listen to

Black Metal by Venom
Aug 04 2021

I can't tell if these guys are a complete farce or taking themselves way too seriously. Either way, I must admit it is entertaining.

Bitte Orca by Dirty Projectors
Aug 09 2021

Interesting. One of the male vocalists sounds like Jeremy of "Woody & Jeremy"

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Nov 04 2021

Admittedly a but too involved and complicated to be an easy listen for background music, but for a jazz fan this is a great one. The guitar really elevates the album while making it distinct from other Davis stuff.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Nov 25 2021

Oh my god I'm a little biased because I already knew of this album, but seriously I love it. The highly emotional vocal performance, the almost classical elements of the compositions, the timeless feel of the lyric content and music, the masterful production. A nearly perfect album that has resonated with me since I first listened to it, no matter what walk of life I'm at.
