Ready To Die
The Notorious B.I.G.
Whyyyyy are there so many sex noise/porno skits?! Why do they feel the need to add those in? Even if you're someone who isn't bothered by the misogynistic side of it, it's just annoying to listen to! Though it's not my typical genre, this isn't my first Biggie album. There's some more enjoyable tracks on here, but I still prefer his 'Mo Money Mo Problems' over anything else.

American Beauty
Grateful Dead
A chill, pleasant album. It gives me βsummer afternoon barbecueβ vibes. No particular song rose above the rest, but I wouldnβt complain if one showed up on a playlist.

Mar 18 2022
Meat Is Murder
The Smiths
As Tom said to me, the singerβs voice is the progenitor for all βhipster/indie bullshitβ and I do love my hipster/indie bullshit. While not quite something I would listen to on my own, this is the closest to the kind of music I enjoy of the albums so far.

Mar 21 2022
Horses
Patti Smith
Meh, there were a few times where I thought things were getting better and then it just went back to feeling like spoken-word poetry.
2
Mar 22 2022
Synchronicity
The Police
That was a trip. The songs ranged from enjoyable, to weird, to⦠about dinosaurs? They do have some entertaining lyrics at least.
3
Mar 23 2022
Live!
Fela Kuti
This was fun! Great music to work to as itβs upbeat with a nice variation in instrumentation.
3
Mar 24 2022
Kala
M.I.A.
I really liked the beat of Mango Pickle Down River. She kept things interesting with all the different elements mixed in to each song, though it could be too much at times. Would probably listen to certain songs again.

Mar 25 2022
Trans Europe Express
Kraftwerk
Is this what itβs like to live in an 80s video game?
2
Mar 28 2022
Is This It
The Strokes
Really enjoyed the guitar riffs in a lot of songs. The vocals arenβt my favorite but I get why they fit with this style. Listened to it twice through since itβs so short!
4
Mar 29 2022
Tracy Chapman
Tracy Chapman
Iβve loved Fast Car for years and have listened to this album before, though not recently. Talkinβ Bout a Revolution is a fantastic opener. Not quite 5-stars, but I definitely understand why this is on the list.
4
Mar 30 2022
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Beatles
Ahhhh yes, an album Iβve never listened to but with four songs I recognize. The opening song and Lovely Rita were the standouts of new-to-me tracks. A solid 4 and one that I could probably grow to like even more.
4
Mar 31 2022
Ingenue
k.d. lang
Constant Craving is good, but I found the rest of the album underwhelming. There were some enjoyable moments within songs, but nothing else really stood out.
3
Apr 01 2022
Iβm a Lonesome Fugitive
Merle Haggard
Okay, so, this was better than I thought it would be. Still not something I would listen to on my own, but it made me want to head out on a road trip down south.
3
Apr 04 2022
Brilliant Corners
Thelonious Monk
Itβs justβ¦ not that fun to listen to. The first song was almost painful. This may have historical relevance, but the enjoyment was not there.
2
Apr 05 2022
The Score
Fugees
Some really great songs on here surrounded by alright songs. As usual, could do without the skits.
3
Apr 06 2022
Nick Of Time
Bonnie Raitt
Easy listening, sounds very much of its time.
3
Apr 07 2022
The Dark Side Of The Moon
Pink Floyd
I do enjoy an album where the short intro song leads into the first full track. This one goes above and beyond with that. The beginning of Time is meh but the guitar solo isππΌ. I feel like I enjoyed parts/elements of the songs, but rarely the entire thing.
3
Apr 08 2022
Your Arsenal
Morrissey
Heβs not someone I would hang out with, but I canβt deny he creates some good music. The opening track is my favorite.
4
Apr 11 2022
Green River
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Good vocals and guitar. Lodi was the standout from the new-to-me songs.
3
Apr 12 2022
The Hour Of Bewilderbeast
Badly Drawn Boy
Iβd never heard of this artist before so I didnβt know what to expect. It was more pleasant than I thought it would be. The album could use some editing though.

Apr 13 2022
The Sounds Of India
Ravi Shankar
Too long, would have preferred it without the instructional bits.
2
Apr 14 2022
Paul's Boutique
Beastie Boys
Wow, that was way more irritating than I thought it would be.

Apr 15 2022
Beach Samba
Astrud Gilberto
Pretty forgettable
2
Apr 18 2022
Paranoid
Black Sabbath
War Pigs to Electric Funeral, all bangers. After that I feel like it loses steam. The vocals arenβt my favorite, but sometimes they work well.

Apr 19 2022
Fear Of A Black Planet
Public Enemy
This album wasnβt created for someone like me and thatβs fine.
2
Apr 20 2022
Vento De Maio
Elis Regina
Pleasant to listen to.
3
Apr 21 2022
Selling England By The Pound
Genesis
I found this too chaotic to enjoy. There were moments that worked and Iβd start to get into the song and then it would completely change.
2
Apr 22 2022
Emergency On Planet Earth
Jamiroquai
The first few songs were quite enjoyable. It didnβt hold my interest until the end, but still fun to listen to. In the end, 3.5/5 rounded down
3
Apr 25 2022
Music For The Jilted Generation
The Prodigy
Better than I thought it would be considering the album cover. Good for listening to while getting work done.
3
Apr 26 2022
Off The Wall
Michael Jackson
Starts strong, but fades quickly. Still relatively enjoyable overall.
3
Apr 27 2022
A Grand Don't Come For Free
The Streets
It felt like I was listening to the part in a musical where the music keeps going, but the lead talks and addresses the audience. Him being off the beat all the time really irked me.
1
Apr 28 2022
Playing With Fire
Spacemen 3
Not particularly interesting, but okay to get work done too.
2
Apr 29 2022
Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs
Derek & The Dominos
When the best song on the album is over 7 minutes long you know they can create some good music. Enjoyed this and would listen again.
4
May 02 2022
Fetch The Bolt Cutters
Fiona Apple
Bit too grating for me in moments (I donβt need to hear your dogs barking for an extended period of time), but it was alright.
3
May 03 2022
Time Out
The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Take Five is pretty great. The rest of the songs are pleasant, but nothing really stuck out to me.

Buffalo Springfield
I wanted to like this more, but in the end it was just βfineβ.

Pink Moon
Nick Drake
A very pleasant listening experience. I would definitely listen to more of his work.
4
May 11 2022
Superfuzz Bigmuff
Mudhoney
The first song was okay, like I enjoyed the guitar, but the vocals were iffy. Then it slowly got more grating, to the point where I was glad the album was over.
2
May 12 2022
Qui sème le vent récolte le tempo
MC Solaar
This was a great time. I think my favorite song is the title track, but there were a lot of good ones.
4
May 13 2022
KE*A*H** (Psalm 69)
Ministry
I didnβt despise this like I have with other 1-star ratings, but two stars seemsβ¦ generous. 1.5/5 with Jesus Built my Hotrod being one of the more entertaining song titles Iβve ever come across.
1
May 16 2022
Garbage
Garbage
Nothing stuck out to me, but it was still fine to listen to.
3
May 17 2022
The College Dropout
Kanye West
Remove the skits (though they werenβt THAT bad) and the 12-minute finale and youβve got an awesome album.

May 18 2022
Berlin
Lou Reed
Thoroughly underwhelmed
2
May 19 2022
Histoire De Melody Nelson
Serge Gainsbourg
I thought his voice sounded so creepy so I looked up what the album was actually about: βIts Lolita-esque pseudo-autobiographical narrative follows the illicit romance that develops between the middle-aged Gainsbourg and 15-year old girl Melody Nelson.β Yeah, no. This was gonna be a 2 based off what I initially heard and now itβs a 1.

Moondance
Van Morrison
Went back for a second listen because the first time through was so nice.

Bryter Layter
Nick Drake
Enjoyable, but didnβt stick with me.
3
May 24 2022
Heroes
David Bowie
I listened while on a run and although it was enjoyable to start, the group of instrumental songs toward the end were kind of a drag.
3
May 25 2022
The Wildest!
Louis Prima
Fun to listen to.
3
May 26 2022
C'est Chic
CHIC
The big song off this album (Le Freak) typically annoys me so I was a little worried, but it wasnβt too bad. Sometimes it felt more like elevator music.
3
May 27 2022
A Love Supreme
John Coltrane
Probably would have been a three except for when the saxophone kicked in. The way it was played (breathy, crackling) irked me too much

Elvis Presley
Makes me nostalgic for a time I wasnβt alive for, hah. Great to listen to while working but no song really stuck out.
3
Jun 03 2022
Lazer Guided Melodies
Spiritualized
Not offensive, so it has to be higher than my 1-star albums, but it was also incredibly boring, so it canβt get more than two.
2
Jun 06 2022
Cypress Hill
Cypress Hill
Some fun beats
3
Jun 07 2022
Stand!
Sly & The Family Stone
I thought this would be better than it was. The instrumentation irked me at times. Maybe it was the mixing, but I had to stop listening with headphones because certain sounds were grating. Everyday People was enjoyable at least.
2
Jun 08 2022
Soul Mining
The The
The first few songs were better than I was expecting and I would willingly listen to them again. The latter half donβt hold up as well, so this is more like a 3.5/5 for me.
3

A solid 3. There were some songs where the guitar sounded great, especially Down on Mission Street.

I was not expecting to enjoy this album as much as I did. I recognized some songs, but there were new ones that grabbed me and caused me to listen twice through. My first 5 star on a new-to-me album!

Straight Outta Compton

Coldplay was my favorite band for a number of years starting around the release of Viva La Vida. I threw myself into their music with the exuberance and devotion that only girls in their teens can. Iβve listened to this album too many times to count and it, along with other early albums of theirs, hold a level of nostalgia (for me) all their own. Top 3: In My Place, Politik, Green Eyes
