In A Silent Way
Miles Davis
First time hearing this. Insanely impressive. Recorded in one session according to Wikipedia, unreal. Was somewhat surprised to hear electric guitar, but this is a bit of a rock crossover album it seems. Miles’ work on the trumpet steals the show, it’s like listening to how a hug feels. and whoever is on sax is also incredible.

Tonight's The Night
Neil Young
Enjoyed the music and particularly the guitar. As always, Neil Young's vocals are not the bright spot.

Fast car is obviously a classic track, but the rest of album seems to fit into the "filler" category with totally uninspiring backing music, and none of the pacing of the vocals that makes fast car so interesting. "Why?" might be somewhat of a outlier, but generally this album didn't live up to expectations.

really hard to get through this. Hard to imagine how anyone would have ever wanted to listen to this album.

Eliminator
ZZ Top
I tend to think of zz top as gezers but they seem like they might have been pretty hip back in the 80s. pretty decent classic rock album but likely not one I'll come back to often.

very solid album across the board, but also highly nostalgic. For this genre of rock, I'd consider this a high water mark

Since I Left You
The Avalanches
First time hearing the whole album, it actually holds up well. First album I'm aware of to be basically 100% samples, which was ahead of its time

Murmur

Definitely sounds a full decade ahead of its time. I'd only heard the first song before, and it's probably the only one I'd come back to

This album is a blast and reminds me greatly of my teenager rage. Was surprised how much I liked the handful of songs that didn't become singles from this album.

not bad. Wonder why this band never really achieved lasting success like a lot of the similar bands of the era. probably the name was just too stupid

I like a few songs on this album but find the rest pretty hard to listen to. in some sense it feels like it dates itself badly.

I was surprised how much I liked this album and is another one that was way ahead of its time. The vocals were weak for me and prevented a 4 start rating

seemed like a relatively primitive use of computers/synthesizers in electronic music production. may have been groundbreaking in its day but lacks impact in a modern listening environment

Didn't love it. I'm confused how he came out with this and lust for life in the same year. That seemed like a much greater success musically than this record.
