Lady In Satin by Billie Holiday
Jun 08 2022

Old school music - beautiful voice with orchestra in the background.

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan
Jun 09 2022

It was good, not groundbreaking by any means

Sound Affects by The Jam
Jun 14 2022

early punk rock vibes. All songs are 3ish minutes. British. I get Clash vibes

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Jun 16 2022

Of course very familiar with this album. I very much enjoy it - would give it 4 stars

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Jun 17 2022

African music - not for me. 2 stars

I'm Your Man by Leonard Cohen
Jun 20 2022

Same haunting voice, but the music seems dated and a little 80's. 3 stars

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Jun 21 2022

Classic album from Miles Davis - first song will remind you of his talent

Maxinquaye by Tricky
Jun 22 2022

I'm not totally sure how to describe him. He has some female vocals over rap-based beats. Aftermath is a good song. Almost as if you were to strip away raps and just have some sampled beats and put a soft female voice over it. 3.5-4 stars

New Forms by Roni Size
Jun 24 2022

Meh. Some synth. Some samples. Mid 90's. 3 stars

Jun 27 2022

early 90's rock, alternative - would be heard in a 90's teen movie - 3 stars

Rio by Duran Duran
Jun 28 2022

Meh - typical 80's Duran Duran. Key song is "Hungry like the wolf" 3 stars

Sail Away by Randy Newman
Aug 26 2022

4 stars - its classic Randy Newman. I'd definitely say he has a unique voice and his early albums, such as this, are a lot better than newer Randy Newman

Eagles by Eagles
Aug 29 2022

4 stars. Good, early Eagles album

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Aug 30 2022

5 Stars. Obvious Classic

Clube Da Esquina by Milton Nascimento
Aug 31 2022

3.5 stars. It was a fine album. Not for me

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Sep 02 2022

Classic Stones album. 5 stars

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone

5 stars. Beautiful album. I want the vinyl

Great album, would love to own the vinyl

Sep 09 2022

3.5-4 stars - it was good, i enjoyed it more than I thought I would

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Sep 12 2022

3.5-4 stars - it was good, i enjoyed it more than I thought I would

Imagine by John Lennon
Sep 13 2022

Of course amazing

Smile by Brian Wilson
Sep 14 2022

Brian wilson has a very unique voice, tone and lyrical style. Not totally for me. I'm not throwing this record on

New Boots And Panties by Ian Dury
Sep 15 2022

It was fine. Some old time UK rock and roll - Reminds me a lot of Mac Demarco. But he focused on some sax and other instruments rather than some synthpop like Demarco. 3.5 stars

Palo Congo by Sabu
Sep 16 2022

Not my taste, so 2 stars

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Sep 20 2022

Personally a 5 because this just launched my love of music. But know this album is more of a 3.5

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 04 2022
Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Oct 10 2022

Beautiful voice with some classic songs (Son of a Preacher Man)

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Oct 11 2022

Classic Marvin, the dude was a genius

Kid A by Radiohead
Oct 13 2022

Obvious masterpiece

Southern Rock Opera by Drive-By Truckers
Oct 19 2022

3.5, it was fine. Better than I thought it was - Think of it as a southern rock type album

Rip It Up by Orange Juice
Oct 20 2022

Meh. It was fine. 2-3 stars. I see it as a cross between some rock and jazz but didnt do anything for me.

Metallica by Metallica
Oct 21 2022

Always a classic

Oct 31 2022

Feb 20 2023

Actually enjoyed this album. Great background music. 3.5 stars

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Feb 21 2023

Love CCR. 3.5 stars. This has "born on the bayou" and "proud mary"

Songs Of Leonard Cohen by Leonard Cohen
Feb 22 2023

Every time I hear more Leonard Cohen, I realize he is more amazing than I imagined. 3.5 stars

90 by 808 State
Feb 23 2023

kinda "futuristic" - it's OK. Almost like merging 80's with dance music. But then also something that would show up in Stranger Things or ET. Not my bag. 2 stars.

Like A Prayer by Madonna
Mar 22 2023

I get why it was a hit. Every song kinda sounded the same though

Brown Sugar by D'Angelo
Nov 01 2023
