The Beach Boys Today! by The Beach Boys
May 07 2021

bland schlep that's aged terribly if it was ever good to begin with. At least it's usually boring and inoffensive enough to be forgotten quickly. Pop has gotten so much better since this.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
May 09 2021

Surprisingly fine. Didn't hate it. A little long.

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
May 10 2021

Not really my style, but I'm still impressed.

Time (The Revelator) by Gillian Welch
May 11 2021

Reminds me a lot of Laura Marling (or I guess the other way around). Nice, calming country sounds.

Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin
May 12 2021

Classic record, one of Led Zeppelin's best. Happy this came up, as I haven't listened to it in a while.

Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen
May 13 2021

It's fine. Bruce Springsteen's singing is the worst part. I was braced to hate it, but listening has been a good time. Still got kind of bored in the second half of the record.

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
May 14 2021

Aretha Franklin's voice is amazing.

Roger the Engineer by The Yardbirds
May 18 2021

Surprisingly good for something from this era. Really enjoyable album.

Tical by Method Man
May 20 2021

It's wu-tang, what more do you want.

Teen Dream by Beach House
Apr 28 2022

lovely, dreamy indie rock. Great band, relaxed music.

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
May 02 2022

It is Bruce Springsteen. Don't know.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
May 04 2022

One of the best rock records.

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
May 06 2022

Comfy post rock, might last for a little too long.

OK Computer by Radiohead
May 07 2022

Karma Police has been stuck in my head for 15 years.

Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver
May 10 2022

I am a sucker for this vocal style.

The Slim Shady LP by Eminem
Aug 30 2022

aged poorly, lyrics are rough, rapping is great, emotional content real, ugly mirror to society-type album.

Sep 04 2022

fascinating, but not up to the level of Live in Reading or the originals. Having the variety is nice.

Cheerleader
