I love Alice Cooper & this entire album.
I would argue that Unfinished Sweet is the best dentist song of all time & they absolutely ARE aching to get me.

Stevie Wonder
4/5
Enjoyed this, 1st time listening to a Stevie album, only familiar w the big hits.
Loved the funk, wasn't into the jazz. I'll own it, I don't care for Contusion. Some of the slower lovey songs got a little long for me. Depressing how relevant some of these lyrics are 45 yrs later.
My Highlights!
Village Ghetto Land
Sir Duke ☆☆☆☆☆
Pastime Paradise surprised me too folks
Ordinary Pain after 2:40
The harp on If It's Magic bc fucking harp
Saturn
Ebony Eyes
Sinead O'Connor
2/5
Well Sinead O'Rebellion! Shock me shock me with that deviant behavior!
Sinead does have a unique voice & I love Irish dialect. I recognize & appreciate the anguish that went into the album, it would be a good one if you ever need something to listen to during an ugly cry session.
My highlights
Feels So Different love love love the strings
I Am Stretched On Your Grave is my fave of the album
Nothing Compares is a classic of course, there's a reason that song has been so overplayed
If I'm being honest a big highlight was when it was over.
Mudhoney
3/5
Grungy & angsty, love it. Fave lyric There's a certain comfort in being confused.
I revisited the book Touch Me I'm Sick while listening - Charles Peterson's photojournal of the grunge scene. Made me long for my youth and another beer!
My Highlights!
Generation Genocide
Broken Hands esp guitar solo
Move Out
Shoot the Moon
Alice Cooper

Van Morrison

Super not into it.
Baaba Maal
2/5
I enjoyed listening to this, it was interesting. Researching the artist also led me to learn a few things about Senegal along the way. Probably won't listen to this again but enjoyed being exposed to it!
Led Zeppelin

The Style Council

First half of the album was ok - esp Mick's Blessings & The Paris Match. Did not care for the last half!
Jorge Ben Jor
3/5
Funky! Recognized some sounds I didn't know were borrowed from Jorge
Curtis Mayfield
3/5
This was all right. I was eagerly expecting a pizza delivery from a mustached delivery man that I simply don't have cash to pay for do you accept any other forms of payment? while listening to this album.

The Smiths

Echo And The Bunnymen
3/5
An all right listen, didn't overly grab me. Nocturnal Me is an unequivocal Ghost song in my head, it jarred me when it started to play! The Bunnymen get an extra star for that track.
X-Ray Spex

Today I learned about Poly Styrene!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs
3/5
Grew on me w additional listens!
Jimmy Smith
2/5
I just can't with these jazz instrumentals. But Jimmy gets an extra star due to my affinity for the organ!
The Everly Brothers
3/5
Incubus
4/5
I've long loved this album! And was infatuated with the brown eyed dream boat that is Brandon Boyd for a minute! Always loved that red tattoo on his arm.
Sometime near this album's release I won Incubus concert tickets from the radio. A friend & I drove a couple hrs to the show in my dad's hooptie grand marquis getting high af. They were nose bleed seats but it was fucking awesome. A MAJOR AWARD after all. GOOD TIMES INCUBUS!
Barry Adamson
3/5
Didnt know what to expect when this came up but I was excited to see Atticus Ross as a contributor! Upon playing I realized I was familiar w some of Barry's work from the Lost Highway soundtrack. Had a good time listening to this - will revisit!

Eurythmics
3/5
I enjoy weird synthy shit! The Eurythmics make me think of Friday Night Videos when I was a little kid - Annie seemed so exotic to me!
Sufjan Stevens
3/5
Not really my cup of tea but an interesting listen. Certainly a masterpiece of a concept album, I feel like I watched a movie about Illinois. John Wayne Gacy made me pause both times I played it thru. Loved the orchestral sounds & esp the trumpet on this album!
Franz Ferdinand
3/5
Don McLean
3/5
2Pac

Not my fave Tupac album but it's all right!
The Smiths
1/5
Even more mehhh than the last Smiths album.
Mercury Rev
4/5
I really enjoyed this & will be spending more time with it!
There is some very beautiful music in here- especially liked Tonite it Shows, the poetry that is the lyrics of Opus 40 & highlight for me is Endlessly. So melodic, it's the sound birds make when twirling around Cinderella or Snow White's beautiful kind head. And I've spent so many hours playing the eerie melody that is Silent Night just so lovely.
Guns N' Roses
5/5
I know this is overplayed but shit it's a good album & I love it!
System Of A Down
5/5
I've loved this album for 20 years - it still rocks! Part of the permanent soundtrack of my life.
The Cardigans
3/5
Ok background music, did not overly grab me. Honestly there are times I found her voice lovely & times it made me want to bang my head against a wall bc its so sickenly sweet. Overall ok tho & Heartbreaker was the standout to me!
Paul McCartney and Wings
4/5
Band on the Run is a masterpiece of a song in my opinion, just so good!
Beatles
4/5
The Rolling Stones
3/5
Not the biggest Stones fan. I get it, I just don't get it the way the real fans do. That said, I don't mind this album. Favorite track I Got the Blues!
Tom Waits
2/5
I'm down w/ Tom Waits, a fan actually, however this album just isn't really my thing. There's some humorous shit up in here but overall I simply prefer a little more music a little less chit chat ya know?
Run-D.M.C.
3/5
Dire Straits
4/5
Perfect album for a Saturday morning putzing around the kitchen. The whole album is kind of one song, but it's a good song!
Tito Puente
3/5
This album makes me wish I could move my hips & salsa dance! (I absolitelu cannot) Fun listen!
Missy Elliott
4/5
Loved it!
M.I.A.
2/5
Not a big fan of this-too marching band! Kept making me think of that dumb ass Gwen Stefani song w/ b a n a n a s in her dumb ass baby voice. Last 1/2 of the album was more bearable. I actually liked Mango Pickle Down River, Paper Planes makes me think fondly of Pineapple Express & Come Around w/ Timbaland was all right too.
Finley Quaye
3/5
Gang Starr
4/5
Wasn't familiar-now I am! Listened to Gang Starr all day. Who's Gonna Take the Weight was my fave song, but no bad ones here imo!
Kendrick Lamar
4/5
Poweful album! Love the funk & fucking love King Kunta! If you can listen to that song w/o moving your body we can't be friends.
The Magnetic Fields
2/5
Appreciate & respect the project, just not songs I'd seek out for three full hours. I listened to it all but it became background music... I know there were songs sprinkled in that almost caught my ear but not enough for me to stop what I was doing to see which ones. Maybe will try again sometime.
Randy Newman
3/5
All I can hear is Pixar Toy Story music or that Family Guy episode when listening to ole Randy. Mr President is an apt present day theme song. Guilty is an awesome song (especially when Bonnie sings it).
Bob Dylan
3/5
I've always felt Bob Dylan is best as a poet, sometimes his voice just grates on my nerves. But I have respect & there are some fine tunes on here, & enjoy the harmonica.
Sidenote we got this album on the day it was announced Bob sold master rights to his recorded catalog to Sony. It's a Bob Dylan kind of day.
Tim Buckley
3/5
Sounds like Tim likes to do it all with his big ole mamas! And everyone else! I especially enjoyed Hong Kong bar.
Suede

The Smashing Pumpkins
5/5
I love this album. So many good songs & sounds. Smashing Pumpkins sound like no one else. Rocket has always been my favorite pumpkins song, beginning of Hummer is amazing.
John Grant
4/5
Listened to this twice while working & thought it was fine, pleasing melodies. Then I listened again w/ the lyrics & fell in love. I like John's style & will check out more of his work!
My highlights!

Elbow
2/5
I am in a bad anxiety filled mood today & while this is soothing so should have helped it had the opposite effect. It really just pissed me off how it sounds like every other gd band. Maybe will try again someday in a better more objective mood (or not).

This one was hard for me to get through...I simply do not think jazz will EVER grow on me. It's like each instrument is playing its own rambling ass jam with no regard to the other players & no regard to a structured song. I suppose that is part of the allure for jazz fans? Idk. In MY opinion, this album is a good candidate to be piped thru the loud speakers of hell.

See what happened was - I was at the racetrack all day & my team won & I had a few whiskeys outside once arriving back home & I was about done w the last one to go to bed bc fauuuck I'm sunburnt & then I saw it was 1984 & only 33 mins...
And that is how I got blackout drunk in the driveway soaking up the moonlight. It was a 5 star experience! RIP EVH!

Idk today is one of those days - I'm like 900+ albums in & this is fine. It's a 3, like a whole bunch of em. It didn't really have anything bad that made me dislike it. But it didn't have anything memorable or fucking awesome sounding either. Somedays I wonder did I REALLY need to hear this? But ok it's fine I'd gladly listen to it some more if you provided a compelling argument. Threeee Starrrrs

When this album came out this dude at work listened to it quietly on repeat in his cube for months. And often one song at a time. I've heard My Sex is on Fire no less than 700 times. WHO FUCKING DOES THAT?

Aimee Mann
3/5
This was fine, 3 stars! TIL Aimee Mann dated Uncle Al & was in Ministry for a minute. She's quoted as saying she learned more effective song writing during her time w the band. Mind blown.
Mostly I just thought about that Portlandia episode where Aimee is a maid lol
Scissor Sisters
3/5
The 1st track sounded like it was going to be Dolly Parton 9-5! But it wasn't & I enjoyed it. The Comfortably Numb cover was interesting so different. 3.5 stars!

Nirvana
5/5
I know every sound of this album. And aside from normal teenage angst / it's actually just good music in spite of the hype / I love it - there was this summer I spent a week alone at my Granny's for some reason. They had just refurbished the upstairs bedrooms we weren't allowed in as little kids & it felt exciting that I got this special time in this special place....especially as I realized how boring being alone on a farm in the early 90s was. I spent SO many hours that week listening to this album (that I got in my Columbia House haul ha!) on my discman...good fucking times

Brian Eno

I'm getting close to the end & getting verklempt but I need to say Brian Eno is probably my biggest take away from the generator. I knew the name but only peripherally & fuck he made a lot of cool music. Solo & obviously all the collabs like I just had no idea how much shit he had his hand in. Bravo Brian Eno!

Very 90s. 5 stars if you're looking for 90s. I certainly enjoyed it more as it went on; which does correlate to amount of whiskey consumed. But correlation does not equal causation & Pete International Airport was killer so 4 stars
