Being There by Wilco
May 17 2022

Pretty decent, I liked some of the catchy upbeat songs. Would give it another listen.

Roxy Music by Roxy Music
May 18 2022

Impossible to really rate an album on first listen alone so I am rating based on how interesting I find it and how likely I am to relisten to it and the band/artist's other work. Overall this album was very enjoyable. The mix of simple song structure with some more experimental sounds reminded me of David Bowie. Also got some King Crimson vibes from the woodwinds. 2HB, The Bob and Chance Meeting was the highlight for me. The drums in 2HB sound so good. Definitely giving this album another listen and checking out the band's other albums.

The La's by The La's
May 19 2022

Nothing groundbreaking but just a really well executed album. Sounds like a 90s version of a Beatles album. Favorites were "I Can't Sleep" and "Way Out".

Revolver by Beatles
May 20 2022

Classic. I actually like Rubber Soul better as an album, but Revolver has some of the best Beatles songs.

The Doors by The Doors
May 23 2022

Somewhat boring and repetitive. They do a good job at creating a certain mood and I can see why people like them. The keyboard solo in "Light My Fire" is hot garbage.

Fever To Tell by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
May 25 2022

Trash. I hate any band that almost exclusively uses that radio vocal effect.

Graceland by Paul Simon
May 26 2022

Peak comfy

The Sensual World by Kate Bush
Jun 02 2022

Kate Bush is sexy. Standout tracks were the title track, Deeper Understanding, and Rocket's Tail.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Jun 06 2022
Technique by New Order
Jun 08 2022

Not bad but nothing that great either

With The Beatles by Beatles
Jun 13 2022

3/5 for a Beatles album, 4/5 for everyone else

Parachutes by Coldplay
Jun 14 2022

I love (old) Coldplay, fight me

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield
Jun 16 2022

Very nice, easy-listening prog. It's not perfect but just the fact that Mike Oldfield made this almost completely by himself at 19 is incredible. Also I'm a sucker for folk music which this featured a lot of.

Butterfly by Mariah Carey
Jun 17 2022

she's a good singer obviously but a whole album of her music gets obnoxious

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
Jun 21 2022

Classic, I think I like III and IV more though.

90 by 808 State
Jun 23 2022
Miriam Makeba by Miriam Makeba
Jun 29 2022

Comfy. "One More Dance" had me cracking up.

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Jul 04 2022

Pretty cool

Imagine by John Lennon
Jul 05 2022

Disappointingly mid. George had the better solo work.

OK by Talvin Singh
Jul 06 2022

interesting

Tommy by The Who

Casanova by The Divine Comedy
