At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

5/5

Amazing album! Amazing that it was performed live and the flaws and asides and prison chatter add to the overall vibe, rather than detract. I'm normally not as much a fan of live music, but this was great all the way through.

Heroes

David Bowie

3/5

I'd give it 3.5 stars. +1 in there for Heroes, and I liked the oppressive trance of Sense of Doubt + Moss Garden + Neukoln leading into upbeat exotic The Secret Life of Arabia. Overall, though, I was underwhelmed.

Let It Be

The Replacements

4/5

It was overall solid, a good mix of "alternative" (pre-dating the musical style) and punk music. There's a few songs I really dug, and I can definitely see the influence on alternative music from the '90's.

At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

5/5

MTV Unplugged In New York

Nirvana

5/5

An amazing album. I forgot how good it was!

Synchronicity

The Police

4/5

A classic rock great album! I've loved these guys for years so this is not new to me, but even the less popular songs on this one are solid - if a little quirky. Is it "great" all the way through? I don't think so, but it's definitely very good all the way through with a handful of outstanding songs.

Apocalypse 91… The Enemy Strikes Black

Public Enemy

4/5

A groundbreaking album. Public Enemy dropping solid raps as per usual, funny segues between songs, and a collaboration with Anthrax for the final track. This is the first time I've actually listened to a full PE album - good all the way through.
