Jul 08 2022

I've listened to this album extensively and love it beginning to end. Obviously electric feel and kids are standouts.

To Pimp A Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar
Jul 11 2022

Amazing front to back story telling song writing musically one of the best hip hop albymss ever nade

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Jul 12 2022

Not my favorite, but I can understand it's importance in hip-hop and rock. Obviously walk this way is a stand out. Some of the rhymes are just a little too cheesy for me.

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Jul 13 2022

Pretty decent folk/blues album. Probably not something I would seek out to listen to, but apparently she has a deep catalogue.

Be by Common
Jul 14 2022

Ive never been a huge Common fan, but I have also never listening through an entire album. I didnt realize this was basically a Kanye album (production wise). I don't love this album because I just dont love Common. The production is great though.

Rubber Soul by Beatles
Jul 15 2022

Damn, still extremely straight forward, but some amazing melodies and song writing. I love Norwegian Wood, In My Life, and Run for Your Life the most.

Jul 18 2022

I know Tupac's hits, and California Love is one of my favorite hip-hop songs ever. I never truly listened to a front to back though. This is a dark album in every way. The album is one straight west coast boom-bap vibe of smooth and moody instrumentals, with Tupac's recognizable cadence, unmatched lyricism and all too real storytelling.

Close To You by Carpenters
Jul 20 2022

Definitely not my pref style of music. Singer/Songwriter balad pop/rock mix. I think typing that out it sounds likes I might listen to it LOL. The first track is a popular one but I would pass it, so that goes to show how I will feel about the album. That being said, there are a few I really liked, so that is always worth it.

Face to Face by The Kinks
Jul 21 2022

I listened to the first half and really enjoyed it. It felt like on the verge of pop and psych rock? Def worth another deeper listen.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jul 25 2022

Pretty awesome and I dont know really know much about the beach boys besides the manson ancid days involvement. So yeah, Ive heard this is their/a masterpiece. I liked it very much, I would say nearly every track is a winner, I listed to the stereo version. Some more songs I can see leading towards experimentation. The album has a nice vibe of groovers, mooders, and boppers.

Not really my thing and sounds a bit dated/shows it's age in a bad way. I know her name and that she was huge alongside other 'alternative' female artists of her time. Maybe I need to give it another few listens, but it didn't truly grab me

LP1 by FKA twigs
Jul 29 2022

This album is crazy awesome. Its near indescribable. Parts bjork, parks beyonce. She uses her voice in crazy ways that while layering is nothing new, are done so fresh and uniquely here. My fiance has shown me a lot of FKA and so I have started following her but yet to catch up on her disco. I recognized more than a few of the tracks on this while listening. Part of what makes this album so good is that it feels like an album though each track is a very unique and stand-alone vibe also. I really loved the production on Numbers

Moondance by Van Morrison
Aug 01 2022

I just really get bored of his voice while listened over and over through an album. Like ear fatigue in a way. The music is okayish but its not my cup of tea honestly. I know this guy was huge but I understand now why I only knew the hits.

Station To Station by David Bowie
Aug 02 2022

Casually listened and enjoyed all the way through. Definitely worth a revisit. I love the opening of the album with is pulsing/whirling pull.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Aug 03 2022

I think everyone has heard this. This was probably the last album of theirs I truly enjoyed. Full of great songs.

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Aug 05 2022

This was a nice album, lovely sort of country ballads.

Arrival by ABBA
Aug 08 2022

Not entirely my style to listen to something like this front to back. Obviously Dancing Queen is a classic, and the songs are beautiful and such.

Wonderful Rainbow by Lightning Bolt
Aug 10 2022

I am not super into Lightning Bolt, but they are quite a force.
