The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

3/5

I didn't realize how long ago this came out. The mix on my laptop wasn't great but that's noones fault. I didn't quite get into it but I enjoyed what I heard. Especially the "simpler" tunes I was surprised by.

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

4/5

Pretty neat. Good beats. Fun atmosphere. Inventive (naturally). Would put on again for studying/etc.

Wild Is The Wind

Nina Simone

4/5

Wow. Them vocals. Those feels. Loved.

Iron Maiden

3/5

Awesome raw force. Decent songwriting overall with one or two killer hits. One or two quite original songs, with some dope "loose" riffs that are pretty fun to ride alongside

Elvis Presley

3/5

I knew a lot of these tracks going in, and I'd like to know more about the originals, just to breath a different sort of life into them. But Elvis does good here.

The Band

2/5

It was an okay experience. Not overly my cup of tea but I respect and appreciate the guitar work and overall songwriting. The couple of singles have certainly grown tiresome over the years, tho they're not without a certain charm of life.

Stardust

Willie Nelson

2/5

Common

3/5

Good shit.

Now I Got Worry

The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion

Music From Big Pink

The Band

4/5

Better than I thought. Full of rich arrangements and musicianshio

Blackstar

David Bowie

5/5

Rocking, introspective, dark

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

4/5

Better than I always remember

Disintegration

The Cure

3/5

Moody, slow, gothic, one or two to hold onto or to throw on when feeling melancholy sad vibes. Rainy day?

Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul

Otis Redding

4/5

Lots of covers. Very rnb soul. Singer songwriter dreamland

Armed Forces

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

3/5

I don't understand a lot of the references but I latched onto Elvis Costello's songwriting. His use of asymmetric bars, his lyrical stylings, and not least the arrangements (big props to the band). Will return to educate myself on the UK and WWII

Aladdin Sane

David Bowie

5/5

Not done but rocking

World Clique

Deee-Lite

4/5

Super fun

Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins
