Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Nov 01 2021

So much of this album is a lot of the same. Doesn't quite take me on a "journey" the way my favorite albums do. That isn't always a problem, but I am not in love with Oasis' sound. Good music, but not necessarily for me. 3.5/5

Femi Kuti by Femi Kuti
Nov 02 2021

Love these long songs, layers of instrumentation and vocals that sustain the energy throughout. Really excellent music. A bit pit off by the homophobia(?) In the final song. 4.5/5

Cypress Hill by Cypress Hill
Nov 03 2021

I don't have much to say. A lot of this late 80s/early 90s hip hop sounds very similar to me. Cancel me if you must. 3/5

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Nov 04 2021

I have listened to all of Dylan's major works, but I'm so glad I re-listened. Took some time to get into, but this is brilliant. 4.5/5

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Nov 05 2021

Wasn't familiar with their earlier stuff. Interesting to hear how it evolved. 3.5/5

At Budokan by Cheap Trick
Nov 08 2021

I am a believer that music is meant to be heard live, but live albums rarely capture the experience. This album really takes off during Need Your Love and maintains that energy. 4/5

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Nov 09 2021

I'm not saying it's a bad album, I'm just saying I have listened to it multiple times and I can tell you maybe what two songs sounds like 3/5

Is This It by The Strokes
Nov 12 2021

I understand this is the literal blueprint for 2000s rock, but it's not exactly something I am gonna throw on fir casual listening. 3.5/5

Dust by Screaming Trees
Nov 17 2021

Good stuff. Managed to surprise me more than once.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Nov 19 2021

Not quite a concept album, but there's a common emotion woven throughout. Wonderfully melancholic. 4.5/5

The Undertones by The Undertones
Nov 23 2021

Not terribly memorable.

Live At Leeds by The Who
Nov 24 2021

Maybe too much hype(?) but this wasn't as transcendent as I'd hoped. 3.5/5

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
Dec 01 2021

I know I said rap from this era was all the same, but Public Enemy was doing it different. 4.5/5

Low by David Bowie
Dec 02 2021

I don't care what y'all say, this is Bowie's best, and one of the greatest albums ever created.

American Pie by Don McLean
Dec 03 2021

A link between Nick Drake and James Taylor, the album never surpasses its title song, but Don's expressive vocals offer lots of gems. 4/5
