Live At The Harlem Square Club

Sam Cooke

4/5

Chirping Crickets

Buddy Holly & The Crickets

2/5

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

2/5

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

Elvis Presley

2/5

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

The Cure

2/5

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

Blondie

4/5

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

Ace of Spades

Motörhead

3/5

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

Ray Of Light

Madonna

3/5

Pleasant to listen to.

Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)

Eurythmics

3/5

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

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg

Jerry Lee Lewis

4/5

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

Odessa

Bee Gees

3/5

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

Raw Power

The Stooges

3/5

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

Green Onions

Booker T. & The MG's

5/5

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

A Nod Is As Good As A Wink To A Blind Horse

Faces

4/5

Fun album, good energy. Some strange musical choices here and there

16 Lovers Lane

The Go-Betweens

3/5

Tea for the Tillerman

Cat Stevens

3/5

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

Elvis Is Back

Elvis Presley

3/5

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

Duran Duran

4/5

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

Fever To Tell

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

2/5

Selling England By The Pound

Genesis

3/5

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

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

3/5

All Mod Cons

The Jam

3/5

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

Your Arsenal

Morrissey

3/5

evermore

Taylor Swift

3/5

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.

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

4/5

Red Headed Stranger

Willie Nelson

2/5

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

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69)

Ministry

1/5

Songs In The Key Of Life

Stevie Wonder
