En-Tact

The Shamen

1/5

I pride myself on being somewhat of a chameleon. And being able to adapt. But someone, anyone, get me out of this gay bar.

The Velvet Underground

4/5

This is an album you put on when you're in love with someone and there's nowhere else to go and nothing else to do.

Pink Flag

Wire

4/5

Believe the hype. This album schools.

If I Should Fall From Grace With God

The Pogues

3/5

I'm totally out of my element with this one. I don't hate it. Better than the Dropkick Murphys. But, isn't everyone? Also, I'd like to think, if you're not drinking while listening to this, you're doing it wrong. If I Fall...is a great morning record. Day drinking!

Smile

Brian Wilson

3/5

Again, out of my element. Believe this will be a recurring theme with this list. Hit and miss. But, overall enjoyable. With some welcomed odd wtf moments. And an excellent reimaging of "Good Vibrations."

Queens of the Stone Age

4/5

This is the sound of locking yourself up in a motel for the weekend with hookers and drugs. Sounds fun, but, it just turns ugly and you become paranoid. Would you do it again? No. But, are you glad you did? Yes.

Live!

Fela Kuti

2/5

Opens with a BANG then settles into the background. Put this on while cooking your favorite meal with your favorite person.

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

I mean what can I say that hasn't already been said? Hendrix just had it. He had it all. He was a great singer, a great songwriter, and an unbelievable guitar player. A Sonic Wizard. And this is his Magnum Opus.

Modern Kosmology

Jane Weaver

2/5

I imagine this is what being able to breathe under water sounds like. And breathing underwater is low on my wish list.

All Directions

The Temptations

2/5

Starts out strong. And ends silky-smooth. But, I ain't feelin' that mild ground. Favorite tracks: Funky Music Sho Nuff Turn Me On, Papa Was a Rolling Stone, Do Your Thing ☆☆1/2

Either Or

Elliott Smith

5/5

Congratulations, now I feel just as shitty as you. You're an asshole.

En-Tact

The Shamen

1/5

I pride myself on being somewhat of a chameleon. And being able to adapt. But someone, anyone, get me out of this gay bar.

The Stranger

Billy Joel

2/5

I mean, this is fine for a Doctor's office

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

4/5

True pioneers.

KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka

4/5

Excellent psychedelic soul. That comes across very cinematic.

Steve McQueen

Prefab Sprout

3/5

I'm really perplexed by this album. At first, the coffee shop hipster vibe really turned me off. I've now listened to this album four times. It's uniqueness has me coming back and trying to figure out what's so special. I have to live with this one before I can truly give it a honest rating. But, for now...

Deloused in the Comatorium

The Mars Volta

4/5

Have you ever met a dumbass sporting an afro? Me either.

Cee-Lo Green... Is The Soul Machine

Cee Lo Green

4/5

I know what I'm putting on at my next cook out.

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.

5/5

The Real Deal

Like A Prayer

Madonna

3/5

“What I do is total commercialism, but it’s also art.” - Madonna

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

small-time criminals, desperate people, desperate times, love and love lost. But, in the end, somehow, we find a reason to believe.

Manassas

Stephen Stills

2/5

Next.

Heartattack And Vine

Tom Waits

4/5

"Don’t you know there ain’t no devil? There’s just God when he’s drunk" Alternating Dive-Bar Shenanigans & Seedy Streets with Bizarre ballads. Although I'm not a fan of the sequencing, this album is ridiculously cool AF.

Fetch The Bolt Cutters

Fiona Apple

3/5

This album absolutely embodies the philosophy of not giving a fuck and doing whatever the fuck you want as long as it works for you.

The Score

Fugees

5/5

Essential Hip Hop

Arrival

ABBA

4/5

ABBA is Pop Perfection.
