Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

Jane's Addiction

5/5

I don't know what to say

Let Love Rule

Lenny Kravitz

4/5

Loved this album at the time (close to the end of when you listened to a whole album). Mr. Cab driver. Yeah

The Sensual World

Kate Bush

4/5

Ok...Love and Anger is an all time favorite I like the rest of the album too. Yes, she goes "out there" because she was more performance artist then musician. I forgive the kooky so I can enjoy the good stuff

Moving Pictures

Rush

4/5

Well, I fucking love Rush. The coolest all around band ever. This is a great album but there is so much more to Rush.

Boston

5/5

Another perfect debut album.

Van Halen

5/5

Greatest debut album of all time. Can you imagine seeing this shit in small a small venue

Are You Experienced

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

Hendrix was a talent beyond the hype. Amazing lyrics, hit the pop, and brought us to new places that still haven't been tapped today.

Frampton Comes Alive

Peter Frampton

4/5

Who doesn't have a specific memory or two about this album (if you are of the age). But a bit lackluster beyond the hits. "Tell me you or someone you know didn't have this album" Peter Griffin

Lady Soul

Aretha Franklin

5/5

Imperial Bedroom

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

3/5

Creative rocking. Often wish it was a different singer. I'll stick with the radio plays

Locust Abortion Technician

Butthole Surfers

2/5

Who let the high asses into the studio? Old days you buy the album cuz of the one song (Elictric Larryland) to find out the rest of it sucks. Has its moments of good guitar riffs

Rumours

Fleetwood Mac

5/5

While I switch the station on most of these songs today, I played the shit out of this album years ago

3/5

Love Ravi's influence on George Harrison.

I thought this was going to be a throw away for me. But it reminded me of John Lennon solo stuff I was into back in the day.

Wonderful Rainbow

Lightning Bolt

4/5

Don't know what it says about me but I'm able to focus on task at while listening to this. I'll listen again along with the genre.

I never had the respect for Blur while loving a couple of the songs

Rum Sodomy & The Lash

The Pogues

2/5

Just can't get into this genre as much as I think I should.

Liege And Lief

Fairport Convention

3/5

Great Sunday morning album. Last song my favorite. Would never have had this album in my collection. Like Sandy Denny better w Led Zeppelin

Central Reservation

Beth Orton

2/5

Soundtrack to a chick flick. And a bad one at that. Don't deny the talent. Just not for me

1999

Prince

5/5

Didn't realize how many hits are on just this one album.

Live!

Fela Kuti

3/5

I liked it but won't listen again. Only drum solos I can listen too are by Neil Peart

The Modern Lovers

3/5

I'd believe this is a recent album if I didn't know better (the Current play list). The sound can be tide loosely to Velvet Underground to show that it was a sound back in the early 70s. I like it.

Toys In The Attic

Aerosmith

4/5

Great album. Toys one of my favorites with No More No More. Don't remember Round and Round but dig it

Heavy Weather

Weather Report

1/5

Whatever

Birth Of The Cool

Considered there best album but not even close to debut album. Really like this album but wished Eddie lost his synth.

Speakerboxxx/The Love Below

3/5

Thought it would just be bongos. Listened all the way thru. Great guitar riffs. I'd listen again someday.

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

4/5

Punk with rhythm. Love it

Smokers Delight

Nightmares On Wax

1/5

I want my time back

Songs From A Room

Leonard Cohen

1/5

The legend. Lennon said to Dylan, he doesn't listen to the lyrics, just the energy of the song. That's me too.

Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul

Otis Redding

3/5

Good stuff but better stuff after album continuous play on Pandora

Aqualung

Jethro Tull

4/5

Far from timeless. Guess it didn't start a wind instrument jn rock craze. Loved it back then. Enjoyed listening again.

Slanted And Enchanted

Pavement

2/5

This is one of those bands I was never into and wonder why. Until I revisit them. Too noisy for me.

Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

4/5

So fun. Gotta listen when I can payment attention to the samples.

Back In Black

AC/DC

5/5

Oh man. I remember running to my turntable on rockin the rest of the day. The 1st note grabbed me and never let go.

The Stranger

Billy Joel

4/5

The crew making this album had to know how big it was going to be. Far from big fan of his but this album is undeniable

Raw Like Sushi

Neneh Cherry

2/5

Thought this would be a quick buzz thru, but it reminded me of Will Smith and others so I hit the skip button only a couple of times. Still, I'll never listen again.

The United States Of America

3/5

Good rhythms kept me listening.

São Paulo Confessions

Suba

2/5

Saw this pop up and went "crap". But listened anyway. I appreciated it after some time and even liked some of some of it

Grace

Jeff Buckley

Berlin

Lou Reed

3/5

Weird Lou but it did get musical. Crying baby freaked me out. Thought it was someone still logged on Teams. I'm a Lou Reed fan from afar.

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

2/5

I give it a 2 because I hear the influence in a lot of songs I like. Can't imagine going to a Kraftwerk show.

The Hissing Of Summer Lawns

Joni Mitchell

3/5

I thought I was going to be able to handle about 10 seconds per song but made it thru whole album. Actually had some groove here and there. Thought it would be acoustic guitar with that Muppet voice. I'll have to give her more consideration going forward

Fear and Whiskey

Mekons
