Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Jul 09 2022

Not bad, but somewhat repetitive. Now it seems rather bland in terms of complexity. May have been more daring/exciting when it was released.

Rage Against The Machine by Rage Against The Machine
Jul 10 2022

Very anger, much yelling! Some clever rhyming and strong protest vibes. The name definitely fits. Tones of energy and drive, but I don’t really like listening to it, it makes me feel yucky. LOTS of repetition to drive home what they want the audience to focus on.

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Jul 11 2022

The theme was almost all the same. Album was not very interesting. Fun extra instruments. Other works by him are more enjoyable. Not a fan of the vibrato.

Disintegration by The Cure
Jul 12 2022

Oddly mellow sound. Not bad as background music until you realize how depressing the lyrics are. LONG tracks. Poetic nature of lyrics is interesting, just wish it had a different focus.

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Jul 13 2022

Fun, upbeat, and easy to listen to. Nothing too daring or unique, but quite enjoyable.

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Jul 14 2022

Liked energy of drum/guitar/bass. Enjoyable to listen to, but questionable/superficial subject matter.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
Jul 15 2022

Pleasant to listen to.

Jul 16 2022

Heavy synth was off putting at first, but after the initial system shock the album was enjoyable enough

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg by Jerry Lee Lewis
Jul 17 2022

Tons of energy and fun to listen to. Great rock and roll. Sad that the linked album is missing songs.

Odessa by Bee Gees
Jul 18 2022

Much more mellow than expected. Enjoyed the orchestral aspect. Favorite tracks: Seven Seas Symphony and First of May.

Raw Power by The Stooges
Jul 19 2022

Short album, but enjoyable. Liked the lyricalness of “Gimme Danger” contrasted with the rest of the album.

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Jul 20 2022

An album of cool, smooth tunes. Instrumental only, but that just makes it seem more effortlessly chill.

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Jul 23 2022

Nice melody and guitar. Enjoyable to listen to. Cat’s voice and vibrato are not my favorite. Similar to Bob Dylan.

Elvis Is Back by Elvis Presley
Jul 24 2022

Not bad, lacking depth, but decent enough in the background. Lyrics tend to be somewhat inane (or disturbing, see chaining a girl to the wall).

Rio by Duran Duran
Jul 25 2022

Very 80s, but I’m ok rocking to the 80s. Good energy, catchy tunes, not too much synth.

Jul 29 2022

Some enjoyable instrumental sections. Not a favorite, but not bad. I didn’t have time to properly focus on it.

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Aug 02 2022

Some fun songs, some annoying. Like the slice of life vignette concept and some of the execution of it.

evermore by Taylor Swift
Aug 07 2022

Not bad. It’s funny how even as artists grow and change there can still be elements of their new work that sound just like what they did 10 or 20 years ago.

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson
Aug 10 2022

Guitar and vocals were enjoyable, but I’m not a fan of the saloon piano

Dirty by Sonic Youth
Aug 15 2022

Too much noise. Some nice guitar riffs fail to make it listenable.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Aug 30 2022
Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Sep 03 2022
Ten by Pearl Jam
Sep 08 2022
The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Sep 10 2022

Some very fun music, some very strange lyrics

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Sep 14 2022
