Either Or

Elliott Smith

5/5

Some of the greatest songwriting ever. Elliot's style is so unique, intimate, passionate, vulnerable, and engaging. I will learn guitar, because of this record.

Van Halen

4/5

Fantastic rock. Some really great riffs and outstanding guitar from Eddie.

Cross

Justice

3/5

High production value. Hate to love "The Party". New workout music.

Led Zeppelin

4/5

Outstanding vocals and guitar. Love the bluesy jams. A couple less memorable cuts on the latter half.

The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

3/5

Pretty dated. I really liked the mellower b-side.

Illinois

Sufjan Stevens

5/5

Humorous, heartbreaking, groovy, beautiful. Such an enjoyable listen. Really, really unique.

At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

3/5

Loved hearing the interaction with the prison audience. I found many of the songs very repetitive in form, but an entertaining record nonetheless. 3.5 rounded down

Calenture

The Triffids

2/5

Not my style.

Tracy Chapman

4/5

Really enjoyed the conscious lyricism here. Tracy Chapman has a great voice with a lot of subtle, gentle soul.

Searching For The Young Soul Rebels

Dexys Midnight Runners

3/5

Love the instrumentation. Lead singer's voice doesn't quite do it for me on most tracks. Fun, high energy pop. 2.5 rounded up.

Don't Come Home A Drinkin' (With Lovin' On Your Mind)

Loretta Lynn

3/5

Enjoyed this more than I thought I would. There isn't much going on here, but these simple tunes are all extremely well sung and performed.

Treasure

Cocteau Twins

3/5

I really liked the ethereal vibe and harmonies. I did not like the nonsense lyrics and boring drum machine.

Either Or

Elliott Smith

5/5

Some of the greatest songwriting ever. Elliot's style is so unique, intimate, passionate, vulnerable, and engaging. I will learn guitar, because of this record.

Kid A

Radiohead

5/5

One of the greatest albums of all time. How To Disappear Completely may be the most beautiful piece of music I've ever heard. Absolutely brilliant songwriting and performances on every track.

For Your Pleasure

Roxy Music

3/5

I really liked the back half of this album. In Every Home a Heartache is fantastic. Wasn't crazy about the "glam" elements of this project, such as the style of the lead vocalist.
