Yankee Hotel Foxtrot
Wilco
The most successful Wilco's album. Great calm and melancholic mix of art-rock / indie rock. Recording sessions were documented for the film "I Am Tryind To Break Your Heart". Reprise Record refused to release the album because they felt unhappy about the end result so the band streamed the album for free on their website in 2001. Later in 2002 the album was oficially released by Nonesuch Records and critics acclaimed the album as one of the grratest albums of the 2000s.

The vinyl record inside was wrapped in a pair of panties, though this was later discontinued as the paper panties were found to be flammable.

Black Sabbath
Black Sabbath
One of the most important musical albums in people's history! The first "heavy metal" album at all! The sound of the album has got the roots in rock, hard rock, jazz, blues and psychedelia with adding of heavy distortion and creating completely a new genre. It was a starting point of separation heavy metal from "rock and roll" and also a prototype to a lot of future rock musical genres. This album was also credited as the first record in sludge / stoner rock and goth genres. Long guitar solos reminds of progressive metal sound. Also Kurt Cobain wanted Nevermind to sound more like Black Sabbath so this albums also has got an influence to alternative rock and grunge sounds. Completely must listen and must have in collection if you re a fan of hard rock / heavy metal / alternative music!

Histoire De Melody Nelson
Serge Gainsbourg
1971 concept album by French songwriter Serge Gainsbourg. Histoire de Melody Nelson is considered by many critics and fans to be Gainsbourg's most influential and accomplished work, as well as one of the greatest French-language albums in popular music. Its Lolita-esque pseudo-autobiographical narrative follows the illicit romance that develops between the middle-aged Gainsbourg and 15-year old girl Melody Nelson. While it became a pivotal album of the 1970s and was instrumental in the development of French rock music and trip hop genre... Thanks, Wiki! I was surprised by the sound of this album. Spoken word "whispering" vocal... The funky bassline is cool! Since I like trip-hop it was interesting to hear the music that influenced some representatives of this genre... French female voice pronouncing "Melodie Nelson" is sitting in my head all the day :)))

Debut Brian Eno / David Byrn album. Eno described this album as a "vision of a psychedelic Africa". Rather than conventional pop or rock singing, most of the vocals are sampled from other sources, such as commercial recordings of Arabic singers, radio disc jokeys, and an exorcist. So sampling here is the main vocal. In later years this album has come to be regarded as a highly influential album. I liked it. Especially good for driving at night. :)

Pink Moon
Nick Drake
Pink Moon was the third and final studio album by the English musician Nick Drake, released in the UK by Island Records on 25 February 1972. Recorded without backing band. The lyrical content of the album has often been attributed to Drake's ongoing battle with depression. Pink Moon was not sold well like previous two Drake's albums (fewer than 4.000 copies of all three albums sold totally). His reluctance to perform live, or be interviewed, contributed to his lack of commercial success. Later in 1999, "Pink Moon" was used in a Volkswagen commercial, boosting Drake's US album sales from about 6,000 copies in 1999 to 74,000 in 2000.
Drake was being credited as an influence by such artists as Robert Smith of The Cure and Peter Buck of R.E.M. By the early 1990s, he had come to represent a certain type of "doomed romantic" musician in the UK music press and was frequently cited as an influence by artists including Kate Bush, Paul Weller, Aimee Mann, Beck, Robyn Hitchcock and The Black Crowes. There is no known video footage of the adult Drake; he was only ever captured in still photographs and in home footage from his childhood.
This is a gem! I don't want to rate it. It's just 5 stars without any doubt. Warm sound, nice guitar techniques. I also liked the cover of the album with Dalí-esque art by Michael Trevithick, who was incidentally a friend of Drake's sister Gabrielle. Will definitely get this one on vinyl. (16/02/2023).

A Love Supreme (1965) is recorded in one session on December 9, 1964. Often mentioned in manu lists of top jazz albums. A Love Supreme is a through-composed suite in four parts: "Acknowledgement" (which includes the oral chant that gives the album its name), "Resolution", "Pursuance", and "Psalm". Coltrane plays tenor saxophone on all parts. One critic has written that the album was intended to represent a struggle for purity, an expression of gratitude, and an acknowledgement that the musician's talent comes from a higher power. Great album!
