Surprisingly, this is the best live album I've ever heard. Although Jerry Lee is a disgusting human being, this show was fun and exciting for the entire 22 minutes. I felt like I was in the room with him. Best Songs: Money Worst Songs: NA

I get why NL likes Steely Dan. Album feels very nostalgic. Happy on the outside, but depressing on the inside. Very well exemplified by Peg. Top songs: Peg, Home At Last Worst Songs: I Got The News

This is a really fun album from the Arctic Monkeys. Personally, I think it is their second best album. I would have loved to be in my prime when this music was popular. Best Songs: Bet You Look Good on the Dance Floor, From Ritz to Rubble, A Certain Romance, Mardy Bum Worst Songs: You Probably Couldn't See For the Lights..., Dancing Shoes

Decent album. Seems like Gene Clark ushered in the wave of rock-country. Best Songs: No Other, Strength of Strings Worst Songs: Life's Greatest Fool

Pretty average album. Probably hovers between 2-3 stars for me. Most songs feel like Beatles leftovers or pretentious. Jealous Guy sounds like he is trying to excuse his abusive behaviour. I Don't Wanna Be A Soldier Mama feels lazy and uninspired, especially as a protest song. There are a few gems on this album, notably Imagine, but I do not think of it as an amazing album. Best Songs: Imagine, How? Worst Songs: I Don't Wanna Be A Soldier Mama,

Great Irish-Punk album! I personally think it's a little bloated, but it has a lot of charm. No songs stuck out as awful, but there are a handful that I didn't care for. Really enjoy the vibes. The album makes me with it was St. Patrick's Day. Best Songs: A Pair of Brown Eyes, Sally MacLennane, Dirty Old Town, A Pistol for Paddy Garcia, The Body of an American Worse Songs: Navigator, The Old Main Drag

I need to start out with this Caveat. I like hip hop, and I know how iconic and important Run-D.M.C. is to the entire genre. With that being said, this album is just okay. The album starts by exemplifying the groups natural chemistry. The word play and the coordination on these songs is out of this world. My issue is due to all of the repetition on the album. I get that Raising Hell came out in the 80s, but the loud snare beats on every song knock this down a peg. Maybe it was my speakers, or the audio mixing for spotify, but the beats drowned out the rapping many times. If I really enjoyed the beats, maybe this wouldn't be as big of an issue, but I just didn't. With similar beats and flows on every song, it was hard to differentiate between songs, and they all blended together in my mind. This album has great and classic songs, but it is not built to listen to all at once. Best Songs: It's Tricky, My Adidas, Walk This Way, Proud to be Black Worst Songs: Dumb Girl, Son of Byford

Surprisingly, this is the best live album I've ever heard. Although Jerry Lee is a disgusting human being, this show was fun and exciting for the entire 22 minutes. I felt like I was in the room with him. Best Songs: Money Worst Songs: NA

I really wanted to like the Talking Heads, but this album only has a few good songs in my opinion. In some of the more iconic Talking Heads songs, eg. Psycho Killer, David Byrne's voice is somehow charming and catchy. On many of these songs, especially Found a Job, he comes off grating and obnoxious. It's clear on this album that the Talking Heads hadn't completely refined their sound yet. This may be my headphones or the mix's fault, but there are multiple times where you can barely hear the lyrics as well. Their cover of Take Me to the River has coherent lyrics, and is by far the best song on this album. Best Songs: Take Me to the River, The Big Country, Thank You for Sending Me an Angel Worst Songs: Found a Job, Artists Only, With Our Love

I understand why I've never heard of Peter Tosh, but he knows how to put together a solid reggae album. Although there are only a handful of standout songs, this album is very easy listening. I found out I like reggae more than I expected! Best Songs: Legalize It, Till Your Well Runs Dry, Ketchy Shuby Worst Songs: Whatcha Gonna Do

I really wanted to like this album, and I did like some of the songs. My issue with this album is that while there are highs, the lows are much lower. I wish there was more ska and I wish there was more punk. The songs I like feel so short, and the songs I hate take forever to get through. If this album was shorter, it might get a three. Best Songs: On a Rope, Young Livers, Misbeaten Worst Songs: Salt Future, Suit City, Ball Lightning

I'm curious what musical silence would sound like now. For a real review, I generally liked this album! It's pretty obvious to me how Dear Science and TV On The Radio had major influence on the early 2010s indie-pop scene. Some of these experimental sounds trickled down to MGMT, Phoenix, and Passionpit. This album also demonstrats TV On The Radio's extensive audio layering skills. While it may have gotten a little formulaic, every song slowly built to a cresendo of chaos and sound but still made sense! Overall, I liked this album. It's not a "classic", but its enjoyable and influential. Best Songs: Dancing Choose, DLZ, Golden Age Worst Songs: Red Dress, Make Love All Night Long Honorable Mentions: Heroic Dose (sounds like what I imagine a heroic dose to feel like)

Dig Your Own Hole is the most complete recorded album I've listened to this journey so far. The entire album is covered in 90s grime. If you looked up the inspiration to this ad, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=veTl59Klc5Q , you would see that it was the Chemical Brothers. They somehow make noise sound good. Best Songs: Setting Sun, Lost In The K-Hole, Elektrobank Worst Songs: NA

This is music that Gus Fring would listen to while cooking. Very jazzy and smooth, and definitely feels ahead of its time. Joe from Soul would have loved to play something like this in the NY Jazz Clubs. While I like the album, Minor Chant is the only song that really stands out to me. Best Songs: Minor Chant Worst Songs: NA

His acting career made me think he was corny, but this is a sick album. There are some issues with production on tracts like "Now I Gotta Wet 'Cha" and "We Had To Tear This Mothafucka Up" which detract from the album. The album has a very political edge to it, which I enjoy. I will always be surprised that issues like the "school to prison pipeline" and "police brutality" have been talked about for decades and are still prominent problems in society. Ice Cube does a nice job of explaining these issues and breaking into the consciousness of white America. The acting career really altered his image. This album reminds me of a Kendrick Lamar album if he was from the 90s. Bangers and commentary combined. Best Songs: It Was A Good Day, Dirty Mack, Check Yo Self Worst Songs: The Predator, Don't Trust 'Em Honorable Bad Songs (Production Issues): Now I Gotta Wet 'Cha, We Had To Tear This Mothafucka Up

The album was decent and full of 80s vibes. Definitely doesn't make me a full-on Prince fan though. Some songs were straight up creepy too. Best Songs: Starfish and Coffee, Slow Love, U Got The Look Worst Songs: Hot Thing (Creepy), The Ballad of Dorothy Parker

I've been to Winslow, AZ. There are only a handful of corners there. I wonder which corner he was standing at. For the real review, I think this album is awesome. I'm surprised, but it feels very southwest. I'm a big fan of western/southwestern culture, so this was a welcome surprise! The entire album is full of 70s bangers. Some songs don't hit, but it's still a good album Best Songs: Take It Easy, Witchy Woman, Train Leaves Here This Morning, Peaceful Easy Feeling Worst Songs: Chug All Night, Take the Devil

Electric Light Orchestra is one of my favorite acts of the 1970s. I love their take on 70s psychedelia! This album is no exception. Out Of The Blue starts with the epic Turn to Stone, the only song I know where they successfully use a fade-out at the end. The next songs follow, and they add to the air of overwhelming emotional music. The alblum should have ended with Mr. Blue Sky, but it unfortunately continues into The Whale, Birmingham Blues, and Wild West Hero; three songs that are seriously weak. It is a great album, but has serious errors towards the end. Best Songs: Turn to Stone, It's Over, Standin' in the Rain, Mr. Blue Sky Worst Songs: Jungle, The Whale, Wild West Hero

This album shows off the potential for Amy Winehouse and leads to her artistic peak of Back to Black. Frank leads with a classic jazz sound, but it makes my wonder how Amy would feature on more contemporary hip-hop tracks. Too bad she left us so soon. Best Songs: Stronger Than Me, Know You Now, Take The Box Worst Songs: October Song

This felt like watching adult swim as a 7 year old. I listened to a lot of it a second time, and it grew even more on me. This album borders on a 5. Best songs: Red Alert, Yo-Yo, Worst Songs: Same Old Show

I used Anarchy in the UK as a way to talk about Political Theory in a college class. All in all, I feel like The Sex Pistols tried to use cheap shock value to stir controversy. Many of their songs sound repetitive. While I tend to like punk, the Sex Pistols are not for me. Best Songs: God Save the Queen, Pretty Vacant Worst Songs: Bodies, Problems, New York

This is album is between a 3 and a 4, but I'll give it a four for one reason; There were no songs I disliked. There were songs that I thought were fine, but nothing was awful. Court and Spark is an album that reminds me of my parents. I tend to like most of the songs, but they also feel like products of their time. It's a good album but not a classic, in my opinion. Best Songs: Help Me, Raised on Robbery Worst Songs: NA

This is the Brazilian Sgt. Pepper. Best Songs: A Minha Menina, Sonhor F, Le Premier Bonheur Du Jour, Tempo No Tempo, Bat Macumba Worst Songs: Baby, Ave Gengis Khan

This is a timeless and influential album. I see the appeal! Sounds better through headphones. Best Songs: Look Back & Laugh, Cashing In, It Follows Worst Songs: Little Friend

This is classic dad rock. It's fine, and there are couple classic rock songs, but the album gets repetitive very quickly. Like most 80s music, they don't seem to know how to end songs, so most end with a long slow instrumental fade. Songs like Legs and TV Dinners are almost a meme as well. Best Songs: Sharp Dressed Man, Gimme All Your Lovin' Worst Songs: I Got the Six, Dirty Dog

I don't think I'm a big Led Zeppelin fan. They have a few songs that really resonate with me, but their sound is the prelude to the 80s rock bands that I'm definitely not a big fan of. This album has decent songs and is influential, but I can't say I completely enjoyed it. P.S. Since I've Been Loving You seems like a good rip-off of I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know by Blood, Sweat, and Tears. Best Songs: Celebration Day, Since I've Been Loving You, Tangerine Worst Songs: Bron-Y-Aur Stomp, That's The Way

There is a reason The Score is a classic. The Fugees tie in a reggae influence to east coast rap and R&B. This combo results the underrated songs "Zealots" and "No Woman, No Cry". On top of these, this album has massively popular and influential tunes such as "Killing Me Softly..." and "Ready or Not". The Fugees even experiment with a slight western influenced song "Cowboys". I genuinely enjoyed this project. You can still feel the influence of The Score through most contemporary rappers: From Kendrick Lamar and Little Sims to Brockhampton to Hamilton. This album is a classic. Best Songs: Ready or Not, Zealots, Fu-Gee-La, Killing Me Softly With His Song, The Mask, Cowboys Worst Songs: NA

I was very excited when I started listening to this album. I thought it would be another wild electronic-filled album, but as it went on I realized that it was atmospheric guitar music. Decent album, but nothing I would listen to on my own. Best Songs: Glass Museum, Along the Banks of Rivers Worst Songs: NA

Really solid classic rock album. Has bangers like Walk this Way and Sweet Emotion. I'm not the biggest fan of 70s/80s rock, but this is the best album from the genre I've had to listen to so far. Best Songs: Walk this Way, Sweet Emotion, You See Me Crying Worst Songs: No More No More

Tom Waits voice legitimately sounds like he's dying. Sometimes it's grating, and sometimes its great! Best Songs: Heart Attack and Vine, Downtown, , Mr. Siegal, Til' the Money Runs Out Worst Songs: On the Nickel

Probably one of the better Brit-pop Bands. They're synth wave sound is definitely one of the most influential and popular trends of the 80s. Best Songs: Rent, Hit Music, Worst Songs: It Couldn't Happen Here

Decent album but somewhat forgettable. I'm starting to see the British influence on the list. Best Songs: Bad Company Worst Songs: Movin' On

Good album, but much of it seemed very forgettable. Aside from songs like, Killer Queen and In the Lap of the Gods, I don't think I could name a single tune from this album. Best Songs: Killer Queen, In the Lap of the Gods Worst Songs: Bring Back that Leroy Brown

This album is something that finally breaks out of the classic rock mold I've been in for the last week. Blues/psych rock is definitely more my speed. While this album is a little samey and doesn't have some of the same nostalgic highs that Queen or Lynard Skynard may have it also doesn't have their lows. Some songs may outstay their welcome as well (looking at you What'd I Say), but this album still deserves a listen. Best Songs: Have You Heard Worst Songs: What'd I Say

Definitely an early 90s album. It has the spirit that "things are gonna get better". There was also a surprising amount of flute or pan flute. Solid, but not something I truly enjoyed or would listen to on my own again. Best Songs: Freedom!, Cowboys and Angels, Soul Free Worst Songs: Something to Save,

Prog rock is better than expected. While the genre doesn't have many catchy bangers, it doesn't have the awfully boring songs. Pictures At An Exhibition is a live album by Emerson, Lake & Palmer. The musicianship is insane. This is a great experience to listen to all the way through. There is no way I would listen to each song individually, but together it is awesome! For some reason, the longer songs are worse than the shorter songs Best Songs: The Old Castle, Nutrocker Worst Songs: Curse of Baba Yaga

I always thought I hated the Flaming Lips. A lot of their recent stuff is not my taste. I was pleasantly surprised when listening to this album! This is classic indie-psych-rock from the 90s. The production is fantastic, and while the songs aren't catchy, they have so much raw emotion in them. Highly recommend. Best Songs: A Spoonful Weighs a Ton, Feeling Yourself Disintegrate Worst Songs: Waiting for Superman

It's clear why Bob Dylan is accepted as one of the best songwriters in American history. The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan sets the stage for the folk-rock of the 1970s. This is a very solid album. Best Songs: Blowin' in the Wind, Masters of War Worst Songs: A Hard Rain's A-Gonna Fall

American IV is the last Johnny Cash album released while he was alive. This fact makes the album even more somber. So many of the songs like Streets of Laredo, I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry, We'll Meet Again, and Desperado have such a different meaning coming from a man at the end of his life. This is a fantastic album, and I hope every music fan can at least appreciate it. Best Songs: The Man Comes Around, Hurt, I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry, We'll Meet Again, Streets of Laredo, Desperado Worst Songs: NA

Solid album but doesn't feel revolutionary or a must listen to me. I have to give him credit for a song about my home state though. Best Songs: Both of Us, Hide It so Deep Worst Songs: Jesus Gave Love Away for Free, What to Do

I'm shocked by this album. I thought I would HATE The Smiths. Morrisey is allegedly a Nazi/White Supremacist, so I was sure his music was awful. Unfortunately, this is a time where you might need to try to separate the art from the artist. The Queen Is Dead is an actual masterpiece. I LOVED IT! They do the 80s right with some present but not overpowering synth and dreamy vocals. I think this is one of the best albums of the 80s. Best Songs: The Queen Is Dead, Frankly Mr. Shankly, There Is a Light That Never Goes Out Worst Songs: NA

Way ahead of it's time. I think this might have started lofi hip hop. I did listen to this while I went on a walk and some of the horns in songs made me think i was about to get hit by a car. Best Songs: She's So, Poor Leno Worst Songs: Remind Me

A slightly trippier off brand version of Bob Dylan. I didn't hear anything that I thought was revolutionary here. Decent album, but I don't need to revisit it anytime soon. Best Songs: Everybody's Talkin, Everything Happens, Sweet Cocaine Worst Songs: The Dolphins, Cynicrustpetefredjohn Raga

This album is really good classic gangsta rap. While I like it, I realize I like east coast 90s rap more than west coast. I have to recognize the influence of this album. This almost feels like it's from the 90s. There are elements of production on this album that are ahead of it's time too. Best Songs: Straight Outta Compton, Fuck Tha Police, Express Yourself Worst Songs: 8 Ball, Compton's N The House, Quiet on Tha Set

I thought I was a Red Hot Chili Peppers fan. Turns out, I only like their hits. Outside of the popular songs, this album SUCKS!!!!! I do not recommend people listen to this album. RHCP is not an album band. The only positives of this album is that the lead singer knows how to use his voice as an intrument. Lyrics do not matter to RHCP, but vibes do. Best Songs: Around the World, Scar Tissue, Otherside, Californication Worst Songs: Get on Top, Easily, I Like Dirt, Emit Remmus, Purple Stain

Nothing revolutionary. Feels like it came out way behind of it's time. If this came out in the 70s or 80s I would understand and respect this album more. While I don't think this is changed the state of music, I think it is a decent enough album. Best Songs: Wild Wood, Has My Fire Really Gone Out?, 5th Season Worst Songs: Magic Bus, Can You Heal Us,

This is Amy Winehouse's magnum opus. It's also clear how much she was struggling with her addictions and relationships on this album. While most songs seem upbeat, they all have such dark undertones, especially knowing how Amy ended up. This, however, is a timeless album. Amy Winehouse is one of the biggest "What if's" in music history. Best Songs: Rehab, Back to Black, Tears Dry On Their Own, Some Unholy War Worst Songs: NA

The Who Sell Out is feels as though The Who tried to imitate The Beatles and The Beach Boys, but were more cheesy. Some songs that make me feel this way are I Can See For Miles, Relax, and Sunrise. I really like the concept of this album, and this came out at a time where even having conceptual albums was something new and interesting. The radio station format paved the way for other albums, like Dawn FM. While I think the format is fun and interesting, the songs on the album were not. There are not many songs that I want to listen to on my own time again. Best Songs: Our Love Was, Odorono Worst Songs: Mary Anne With The Shaky Hand, Silas Stingy

While I like The Velvet Underground's most famous record, I still think they are one of the most pretentious bands of all time. This album is fine, but I would not listen to it again. Best Songs: White Light/White Heat, Sister Ray Worst Songs: The Gift

Very 90s grundgy album. I can see why Kurt and Courtney got along (kinda). I don't think this album is entirely important to the world of music, however, and feels somewhat generic. Best Songs: Doll Parts, Violet, Jennifer's Body, Rock Star, Worst Songs: I Think That I Would Die, Plump

I see the appeal. My first listen was through car speakers. I do not recommend that. This album is one that you should listen to with your headphones on while it's raining. There are some songs that I like and few that I truly dislike. In Gen-Z language, this feels like male manipulator music, but at least it's the good stuff. Best Songs: Speed Trials, Between the Bars, Pictures of Me, Say Yes Worst Songs: Rose Parade, 2:45 AM

Little Simz is one of the only good things going for British Hip-Hop. The other is Slowthai. This album propelled Little Simz into the mainstream for good reason. Many of the songs use unique samples and instrumentals reminiscent of TPAB or TA13OO. The lyrics are simultaneously catchy and deep. Great album. Best Songs: Offence, Selfish, Wounds, 101 FM, Sherbet Sunset Worst: Pressure

Disclaimer: I only listened to the album before the bonus tracks. I don't need to listen to this again. It blends some key aspects of the Velvet Underground with early 80s synths and riffs. There isn't much special about this album in my opinion. While it isn't horrible, I have no real takeaways and nothing to come back to. Best Songs: I Got the Hots, You'll Have to Go Sideways, Worst Songs: Positive Vibrations, Insanely Jealous of You, Queen of Eyes

This album is decent contemporary electro-pop. I personally don't think it is important enough or good enough to be on the list, but it's fine. Best Songs: Girlfriend, Goya Soda Worst Songs: The stranger

Makes you feel like a kid growing up in the 80s. The album explores middle America and the innocence and trauma of it all. It does make you nostalgic for a different time. Best Songs: Born in the USA, Glory Days, Dancing in the Dark Worst Songs: Darlington County

You need to listen to this album as you walk through a city and it slowly drops rain at night. It is a much better experience. Listening through kinda shitty headphones also helps. All in all, this feels like a worse Chemical Brothers album. I like it, but it's not the best electro-grunge I've heard. Best Songs: Smack My Bitch Up, Funky Shit, Mindfields, Narayan Worst Songs: Breathe, Diesel Power, Serial Thrilla

The singer obviously has mommy issues. Best Songs: Every Breath You Take Worst Songs: Mother

I looked this album up, and it definitely hits the tone of a fake movie soundtrack. I really liked some of the songs, but Dirty Barry was unbearable. I think some of the ideas on this album were done better by other artists, but it still sounds relevant to this day. Best Songs: Vermillion Kisses, The Sweetest Embrace, Worst Songs: Dirty Barry

Decent Jazz album that probably revolutionized music at the time. Unfortunately, it now sounds old and done-over. I feel like there are better Miles Davis albums as well. Best Songs: NA Worst Songs: NA

Okay album. I liked the strange Greco-Roman theme to the album, but at the same time they sounded like they were speaking latin through the whole thing. They have better music than Treasure and I'm not sure if I'd listen to any of these songs again. Best Songs: Beatrix, Pandora, Aloysius Worst Songs: Otterley

Okay album. I liked the strange Greco-Roman theme to the album, but at the same time they sounded like they were speaking latin through the whole thing. They have better music than Treasure and I'm not sure if I'd listen to any of these songs again. Best Songs: Beatrix, Pandora, Aloysius Worst Songs: Otterley

Great Album. I've reviewed this in the past, before I joined a group, and it was one of my favorite albums I had listened to so far. It still holds up now! There is no tackyness in their embrace of Irishness, and I really like this album. It's not perfect, but it's close. Best Songs: Sally MacLennane, The Band Played Waltzing Matilda, The Sick Bed of Cuchulainn, London Girl Worst Songs: Wild Cats of Kilkenny

I'm not sure why people dislike albums by the Beatles after Revolver. This is the first time they experiment with their sound and push it that way. I think the albums that come later go more into those depths. This is solid, but definitely not their best work. Finally, it's obvious they loved the invention of stereo audio. Best Songs: Taxman, Eleanor Rigby, I'm Only Sleeping, And Your Bird Can Sing Worst Songs: Doctor Robert, I Want To Tell You

This album really holds up well. I wouldn't have been surprised if it was released in the last couple of years, and yet, IT WAS RELEASED IN THE 90S!!! While there are parts of the album that aren't my taste, it obviously influenced a lot of music I genuinely enjoy. Best Songs: When You Sleep, I Only Said, Blown a Wish Worst Songs: Touched,

Decent 60s album, but I've never been a big Donovan fan. I don't feel like he really stands out from his contemporaries. Best Songs: Sunshine Superman, Season of the Witch, Celeste Worst Songs: Legend of a Girl Child Linda, Three King Fishers,

Very interesting and experimental jazz album. While this isn't my preferred genre, I enjoyed the album. Best Songs: NA Worst Songs: NA
