Dec 20 2021

Normally I'm not a big hip hop fan, but i knew some of these tracks and could listen to them again.

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Dec 21 2021

Great opening track (Son of Sam). I found most of the other tracks to have much the same sound, a bit too in-one-ear-out-the-other. Fine for background music.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Dec 22 2021

Some eternal classics, but by the second half of the album I lost interest.

Celebrity Skin by Hole
Dec 24 2021

Grunge light, it's not bad but it's not great either.

Berlin by Lou Reed
Dec 29 2021

Minimalist album, very underplayed. That said, I like the band. A niche album, not for me.

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Jan 12 2022

Nice songs, but the sound becomes a bit repetitive. Very much underplayed.

Darklands by The Jesus And Mary Chain
Jan 13 2022

A bit of a surprise that this album is from 1987. It clearly was early and/or inspirational for some of the 90s sound. Shoegaze is an appropriate category.

Smokers Delight by Nightmares On Wax
Jan 14 2022

Not for me. Not a big fan of heavily sampled music, this lacks personality. A bit like listening to a soundtrack for a movie you don't know.

Elastica by Elastica
Jan 19 2022

Forgettable

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Jan 20 2022

I've listened to this album several times before. Not much voice left in him, but what a voice. Great feel for the music.

Chris by Christine and the Queens
Dec 16 2022

Nice electronic pop songs. Sounds like early The Knife or La Roux. The songs are varied in tempo and rythm but the sound is much the same
