Moving Pictures by Rush

Fun easy album to get through. 40 minutes fly by. I only knew 2 songs going into this album but loved every song. Rush has always been one of those bands that us "Band Geeks" talk about with their very weird time signatures. Definitely recommend.

Would actually rate 3 1/2 stars if I could. Tracks 5-6 reminded me of the end of David Bowie album Hero's. Definitely a album you should listen too.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Feb 18 2021

Classic. Here Comes The Sun and Octopuses Garden two of my all time favorites.

The Stranger by Billy Joel
Feb 19 2021

Didn't think I knew any songs on this album and ended up knowing almost all of them.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Feb 22 2021

Wasn't sure which version I was supposed to listen to, the U.S. or U.K. listened to both and actually like the U.S. better. One thing I noticed is every band at the time really loved the sitar and the Stones were no different it makes its presence known on this album!

Station To Station by David Bowie
Feb 23 2021

You can tell David's life was in shambles and his addictions were at an all time high through out the entire album. The album is a stepping stone for the British post-punk scene. The highlight is "Golden Years"

I am not a fan of Techno/House music. Overall a great album if you are in the club! But not something I would put on to jam out in the car or hanging around the house. 1) Valley Of The Dolls 2* 2) Sunworshipper 3* Defintly a song I could see sitting on the beach laid back with a drink in hand enjoying the sun. 3) Muscle Cars 3* 4) Drop The Pressure 4* Reminds me of 80's new wave mixed with Under Pressure by Queen 5) In My Arms 3* 6) Guilty Of Love 3* very jazzy feel. 7) Paris Four Hundred 3* 8) Destroy Rock & Roll 3* 9) Rikki 3* 10) Otto's Journey 4* only because it reminds me of late 80's and early 90's Hip Hop 11) Musclecar 3* 12) Zenophile 2* 13) Need You Tonite 2* Chill relaxing 14) Emotion 98.6 2*

Hypnotised by The Undertones

Back At The Chicken Shack by Jimmy Smith
Mar 01 2021

Closer to 5 stars than 4. I am not much on pure instrumentals but this album flowed. It was the fastest 40ish minutes. It was explorative smooth jazz at its best!

The Hour Of Bewilderbeast by Badly Drawn Boy
Mar 04 2021
