The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips
Jan 14 2022

Pleasant enough music. Nothing unique to my ear. I don't own any of their music. Based on this album I probably will not be buying any either. Very average. Rate 1-2.

Horses by Patti Smith
Jan 15 2022

Couldn't take her voice. I know she is well recognized. But not for me.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Jan 16 2022

Too much metal for me.

Tigermilk by Belle & Sebastian
Jan 17 2022

Not my thing.

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Jan 20 2022

It could have been interesting instrumental music. But there was not enough that changed. Not a fan.

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Jan 21 2022

Excellent album. Lots of familiar songs. Stevie Wonder is a classic. Not my favorite kind of music but enjoyable.

Harvest by Neil Young
Jan 22 2022

I don't even need to listen to this one. I already know every song. I have seen Neil live over 25 times. Classic album. All great by one of the greatest musicians and song writers of my lifetime. I especially enjoy Alabama, Words, Old Man and Man needs a maid. (Don't we all?)

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Jan 25 2022

Good album. Some classics on here. Ozzy dining is great at this point in his career.

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Jan 26 2022

So obviously Marvin Gaye is a great singer. And Let's get it on is one classic song. For me most of this type of his music here all sounds the same. I cannot really connect to it. Almost like high end background music to my ears. Not my genre.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Jan 27 2022

Very upbeat high energy music. Some songs better than others. The vocalist can tend to scream a bit too much for me. This would definitely keep me awake on a long car ride. Otherwise I probably would not listen to it often.

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Jan 28 2022

I first heard Dire Straits as a freshman in college. Great sound. Mark Knopfler has a very strong and unique voice. His guitar skills are top notch. The other instrumentals on this album are also high level. The first 3 songs were very popular and are the most familiar. The rest of them are unique. Although some do get a bit slow at times. Nice to hear again after many years.

Dear Science by TV On The Radio
Jan 30 2022

Weird album. Did nothing for me. Meh...put on my own Santana Lotus live CD from Japan in 1973. Now it can really crank.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Jan 31 2022

Not sure where to start. Jimi is one of the greatest to ever pick up a guitar. Shear guitar greatness. Sad for such a short life. This was his debut album. Crazy right. There are 4+ songs that are all time greats. This group defined what a power trio was in the late 60's. I love his voice on Wind cries Mary. A ballad mixed in with great guitar solos. I'm a guitar fan so I love this album. Only complaint is some of his solo's are so crazy it becomes noise in parts. Overall great music. I have not listened in years. I will play more often for sure. Gotta love ..move over....let Jimi take over.

On The Beach by Neil Young
Feb 03 2022

I am a Neil Young fan. This album sounded great to me. Haven't heard it in a long time. Great to hear it again.

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Feb 06 2022

Light up beat album. Kind of fun. Not sure it's my kind of music. Never heard it before this listen.

White Ladder by David Gray
Feb 08 2022

Nice album. Easy listening, mellow music. Enjoyable sound, nice vocals.

Elephant by The White Stripes
Feb 18 2022

Interesting sound. Nothing special here for me.

Murder Ballads by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Feb 20 2022

Is this music? I couldn't take it after 4 songs.

John Prine by John Prine
Feb 25 2022

An Ok album. A bit country and twangy for my tastes overall. But pleasant to listen to mostly.

Something/Anything? by Todd Rundgren
Mar 01 2022

A decent enough album. A bit long. There is good guitar and instrumentals throughout. Some songs pretty mellow where others rock harder. Strange mix. A few classic hits...Hello it's me... Overall ok. Although nothing truly exciting to listen to repeatedly for me.
