Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Aug 20 2021

Some classics I recognize like Band on the Run and Let me roll it

Third by Portishead
Aug 23 2021

Not for me

Abbey Road by Beatles
Aug 24 2021

Some excellent Beetles classics - good to listen to it in its entirety

Live! by Fela Kuti
Aug 25 2021

Funky, good musicians but didn't hold my attention (live albums make good background noise)

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Aug 26 2021

Ethereal synthesizer for over an hour

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Aug 31 2021

Not my type of music and no tunes I recognized... maybe I wasn't in the mood for it

Time Out Of Mind by Bob Dylan
Sep 01 2021

Dylan is someone I should spend more time with. I think his lyrics are very good, but his music almost sounds like spoken poetry at times. Will revisit and re-listen (to this and other albums)

Graceland by Paul Simon
Sep 02 2021

some gooders I knew like "call me al". cool to hear the south african influence, but all in all not an overly memorable album

Soul Mining by The The
Sep 03 2021

Cool sound! Sounds like it could be the inspiration for modern punk sound.

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Sep 06 2021

Immigrant song! Others kinda merged together

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Sep 08 2021

Not good. Disjointed sound that was discordant and somewhat whiny?

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Sep 09 2021

A nice and easy album to listen to. No one song stood out, but she has a great voice! Will want to check out other stuff by her

Junkyard by The Birthday Party
Sep 10 2021

Too grungy for me, not something I enjoyed listening to

Blood And Chocolate by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Sep 20 2021

not a standout album, solid listening but nothing I feel compelled to return to

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Sep 22 2021

Very Dylan - no standout tracks to my ears, a lot of them kind of blur together when listening in the background

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Sep 23 2021

important themes, not my go-to for type of music

Tapestry by Carole King
Sep 27 2021

Very nice chill album, she's great!

Marquee Moon by Television
Sep 28 2021

nothing much to say about it, solid album without any standouts

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
Sep 29 2021

Learned he was in the whalers and enjoyed some of the songs! A nice album for the genre

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Oct 04 2021

Great album I was aware of, but never committed to listening to

Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine
Oct 05 2021

Cool to listen to after playing the songs on guitar hero for years

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Oct 07 2021

Ozzy Ozborne was in Black Sabbath?? very good rock and roll album

Transformer by Lou Reed
Oct 12 2021

2 good songs (walk on wild side and perfect day) rest is blah

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Oct 13 2021

Shreds hard! Liked it

Metallica by Metallica
Oct 15 2021

Love Enter Sandman, meh about the rest

Imagine by John Lennon
Apr 01 2022

Like imagine, everything else faded into itself

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
May 04 2022

I know 'like a rolling stone', but didn't vibe with any others - something about Dylan I just don't get

Nixon by Lambchop
May 05 2022

Easy listening, interesting and fun!

S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things
May 06 2022

Deteriorated as I listened

With The Beatles by Beatles
May 09 2022

Some good Beetles songs that don't make the top charts. Solid album

Entertainment by Gang Of Four
May 10 2022

couldn't hold my attention. skipped to damage goods, and was underwhelmed. totally understand how this inspired music i like today, but it's not my cup of tea

New York Dolls by New York Dolls
May 11 2022

loud rock, but nothing that I could latch onto

All Hope Is Gone by Slipknot
May 12 2022

can appreciate it for what it is, i just have never been into metal. i can tell this is good metal, but there's nothing that sticking. But I liked Snuff!

Vanishing Point by Primal Scream
May 13 2022

one of the easier to listen to albums i've recently been recommended by the list. not saying i like it, but at least it wasn't pushing me away. A lot of it melds together, giving it a soundtrack feels. Overall is a weirder album. No standouts

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Jun 16 2022

A mellow and pleasant album. Nick's voice is textured and the songs are soft and well crafted. His biography adds to the intrigue. I enjoyed listening to it, but doubt I would ever re-listen to it unprompted.

Roots by Sepultura
Jun 17 2022

Interesting to read how a death metal band incorporated indigenous Brazilian music and themes into an album to represent their heritage. Not at all for me

Street Life by The Crusaders
Jun 20 2022

Easy listening, nothing stood out and I doubt I'd ever come back to it.
