Power In Numbers

Jurassic 5

4/5

Charlie 2na has one of the best voices in hip-hop. J5's harmonies and group floor is amazing. Cut Chemist and Numark also incredible.

Bad

Michael Jackson

3/5

Inconsistent effort overall. Some classics, others entirely forgettable. Amazing studio musicians though. Easy to forget that before his public life became such a mess that this was a portrait of Michael at the crest of his height before it would all come crashing down. Enough Cabot be said for the effects that Quincy Jones had on Michael's catalog.

Off The Wall

Michael Jackson

3/5

Listening to Off the Wall after Bad is... weird. There are some classic disco-adjacent jams on this record. More Quincy Jones magic. Again, the session players are top-notch.

3 + 3

The Isley Brothers

4/5

Good album overall, the "extra" content on the reissue just makes it seem bloated and repetitive. Outstanding musicianship. Their cover of Seals & Crofts classic is better than the original IMO.

There's No Place Like America Today

Curtis Mayfield

3/5

IMO not Mayfield's best work, but it's hard to beat 70s Soul/Funk. That album cover is the shit, however.

A Love Supreme

John Coltrane

3/5

I generally prefer Coltrane's earlier work. This is a little more challenging than I want to listen to on a regular basis but the musicianship is undeniable.

School's Out

Alice Cooper

3/5

This is music for theater kids. Is this a concept album? Like Screamin' Jay Hawkins before him and Marilyn Manson after him, the image of the artist is so much bigger than the actual music.

Nixon

Lambchop

2/5

This is the soundtrack of white people Twitter.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

Wilco

2/5

A collection of sonic sketches.

In It For The Money

Supergrass

3/5

Chirping Crickets
