Peasant
Richard Dawson
My first optional album after having completed the full list. If this is the quality of what people are putting on here it will be a good bonus list. This was a little bit out there while still being strongly rooted in tradition. Good listen.

All Hail West Texas
The Mountain Goats
Found this record early in the pandemic. Not sure how I missed them before then. Quickly fell in love with their music. From here I’ve explored many more bands. Lots of things I dislike about Spotify, but the radio play after this record was part of an opening up to new music that got me out of just the 90s (although my heart will always be firmly planted in that time).
I’ll always consider this an important record in my musical journey.

I’ve tried listening to this more than once now. Just not my thing.

I’ve really tried to get into this over the years but it’s never taken hold.

Before These Crowded Streets
Dave Matthews Band
I think this is the first time listening to a whole record of his. It’s well done. Well recorded. Well produced. It just doesn’t grab me.

Comfort To Me
Amyl and The Sniffers
Came across them with their newest record. I hadn’t listened to this one yet so it was good to hear. Nice to hear a current band with something interesting in their sound.

Don't Say No
Billy Squier
Straight up rock record. Enjoyed listening to it. Had heard of him before but didn’t know his stuff.
