I've heard this one before and I know it's a 9.5/10 the last .5 is saved for OK Computer and Kid A lol
A Hard Day's Night - The Beatles ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Initial Impression: A Beatles' album I hadn't heard prior to starting this. Expecting it to be poppy. Hard Days Night - I really enjoy the percussion in the background I hadn't heard before. Classic. 9/10 I should have known better - pretty solid track. digging the harmonica 7/10 If I Feel - Meh. Just seems like an early power ballad. Not awful, not great. 4/10 I'm Happy Just To Dance With You - I don't know if the Beatles inspired the Hollies or vice versa, but it sounds like that era. Second favorite song on the album thus far. 8/10 And I Love Her - Eastern vibes - soothing. Tie for best song on album so far? (I'm a sucker for that off beat wood block ) that tasty guitar solo too. 9/10 Tell Me Why - Big Sound, love the piano. Honestly, this is an ideal Beatles pop song. 8/10 Can't Buy Me Love - Fuckin' Classic. If you don't get it I don't get you. 10/10 Any Time At All - Another of those Hollies sharedspired songs(?) Pretty poppy. Not quite a hit - clearly as time has told. Aside from the big vocals from McCartney it's pretty weak. 6/10 I'll Cry Instead - Another one I haven't heard. Kind of groovy in an almost US country way. Love the walking bass. Don't really love the song. 5/10 Things We Said Today - Eh. This reminds me of a lot of 60's music. It's not better or worse than most of it. 5/10 When I Get Home - This song feels like a Beatles building block. They take this sound and use it later and make it great, but it's still in it's infancy here. I'll bet it would be great if I hadn't heard the rest of their discography though 6/10 You Can't Do That - Copy my "Ticket to Ride" but don't make it too obvious. (I don't know which came first) 6.5/10 I'll Be Back - I like the salsa vibes. Good track to close the album out with, nice fusion of pop, the 60's sound, and then a bit of pizzazz. 6.5/10 Final thoughts: This is a great start, but things get much better from here. I'd rate this album a 6.5/10. It contributed to some classics, but far from my favorite Beatles album and far from my favorite album period. Can't buy me love is the highlight.
Tusk - Fleetwood Mac ------- Initial Thoughts: I've heard this one, I love it gonna slap an 8/10 before listening ----- Over & Over - Still not a fan of the ballad tracks, gorgeous but boring. This one added a bit of country twang. 6/10 The Ledge - Fun, high energy. The left only bass is driving me nuts and causing me to rate this song a bit lower than I initially remembered. 8/10 Think About Me - Solid, fun. Love the chorus with the harmonies. 7/10 Save Me A Place - Eh - too country for me. A bit slow. I like Fleetwood Mac when they're high energy. 4/10 Sara - I've heard this one lots. One of my favorite Stevie Nicks led songs. Unlike other tracks on the album I don't feel like pushing repeat. 6.5/10 What Makes You Think You're the One - Big sound. Great vocals, fun instrumentals 7.5/10 Storms - How does this have 21m plays? zzz. Maybe I'm not in a Fleetwood Mac mood today. 3/10 That's All For Everyone - Another ballad type song. Chord progression reminds me of about a girl by Nirvana. Anyway, skipped. 4/10 Not That Funny - Boom tap boom tap. Energy is coming back a bit and I like the squealy guitar. But this isn't quintessential Fleetwood Mac. 5/10 Sisters of The Moon - Kinda funky right out the gate. This is a track I apparently haven't given the time of day in the past. I'm loving this. This may be my new favorite Stevie Nicks track 8/10 Angel - Kinda funky again. Keyboard sounding like 3 dog night lol. Pretty decent. 5.5/10 That's Enough for Me - This sounds like the ledge with banjo and spastic vocals. Not doing it for me 6/10 ... Look I can't do another hour of this skipping to Tusk Tusk - 10/10 track. 10/10 ---- Final Thoughts: This album is too long and feels like mostly filler. Not a big fan - I must have been drunk last time I listened to it, or skipped the filler. 5/10
This is a great album that's not for me.

Never heard this one before.. I'm sure it was inspirational, but wasn't like tribe called quest and NWA out around this time? This is rap with instruments. Real, bad. Two syl - able rap (rap). This is the album you show your racist Uncle when he's not into rap and you are? I'm sure this was inspirational, but man. 2022 - does not hold up
this is cool, like cooler than cool. 11/10
Classic /10 4.2 ish lol I need ain't to proud to beg
I'd never heard this one before. Quite pleased by what I've heard. Kind of over putting in depth notes unless durnk. This is very 90's maybe an evolution of the Cranberries. Regardless quite enjoying it. 7/10 Granted this doesn't feel like an album that needs to be listened to back to front and front to back.
Pretty alright
Pretty good and has two of my least favorite green day songs
Meh / 10 , gonna give this a 1 - the only song that got popular from this guy was a cover and it's a good cover. But meh
