The Number Of The Beast
Iron Maiden
Reminds me of the Metallica concert with the Cowboys. Never an album I'd seek out, but I love it. Not as dark as expected. This site was already a great decision. So many chord progressions/runs that are iconic; curious where I'll hear them referenced in more recent music.

Impactful and refreshing. Not the last time I'll say "oh, this is the original?"

Looking at the track list, HOW is all of this on one album. Stacked.

Disappointed that I didn't enjoy this more. Can't deny Elvis, of course. Just wasn't feelin it

Weird. Interesting. Liked the end better than the beginning. I'll be listening for someone to say they know this so I can ask questions lol

Ocean Rain
Echo And The Bunnymen
I've heard a few different styles through the first half of the album... driving and almost uplifting for a moment (with a tone like Styx does sometimes), then weird and ethereal

Parallel Lines
Blondie
lol @ the hair on this album cover. I thought "I Know But I Don't Know" was going to be an underrated favorite until 56 seconds in and then it fell off; that guy coming in to harmonize sounds horrible

Follow The Leader
Korn
Just... Really not my kind of music. Semi-enjoyed Children of the Korn and All in the Family though when they crossed genres a bit. And I realize I have bias against them so that gives a slight bump

I'm Your Man
Leonard Cohen
Okay I guess this is from later in his career, but he sounds like he's old (first album on Spotify is '67). Maybe enjoyed it more as I got further into it? OMG I'm dying laughing at the beginning of Jazz Police. Ok maybe all of Jazz Police. What in the hell is this song.

What a great album. You gotta love when the bookends are just two great songs. I can't believe I'm just now hearing "The Song is Over." That one's underrated

Tim Buckley
Really enjoyed this one. It was over before I knew it though, which means it didn't stand out enough and probably shouldn't get 4 stars
