Jazz Samba
Stan Getz
A pleasant surprise! I’m realizing my main criteria for music I like is its ability to move me - emotionally or physically. This is the best kind of jazz, that’s tempered with delicious samba

I understand the significance of it, still don’t like it. Read Townshend’s interview about it and he did too many drugs.

Reading the reviews was more enjoyable than listening! A surprisingly good attempt and easy listening, but more so in that it felt like a real attempt from a one dimensional band to be complete.

3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...
Arrested Development
I loved it then and love it now. I saw as a kid how it was different from the rest of the music out there, that they were a unique and hopeful voice. Every band with a message, even if it’s an upsetting message deserves to be heard.

Goodbye And Hello
Tim Buckley
Only listened because it is Jeff Buckley’s dad. One song I found interesting - “Once I was”. The rest seemed trite. His voice isn’t strong and wobbles a lot. I feel like in terms of folk music Nick Drake is the gold standard and everyone else pales in comparison

This was playing in a New York record shop near Columbia in 2004 and I was immediately in love. I knew New Order and knew their parent Joy Division but this album was soothing, familiar, catchy and fresh. Fresh even in 2004 and again in 2022

Not going to lie I’m only 5 songs in but I get the jist. It’s a fun album that I’ll come back too but I’m too many days behind on this list. I remember this on the list of cool bands my older sister and city cousins listened to. And they have an oomlat like me so they’re basically family.
