Smash by The Offspring
Jul 25 2022

More of a 3.5 for me, but since that’s not an option and I enjoyed the later tracks more than the earlier ones, I’m rounding up. Overall had fun listening to it.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Jul 27 2022
Tommy by The Who
Jul 28 2022

Started out enjoying this, but it lost me in the middle somewhere.

Private Dancer by Tina Turner
Aug 01 2022

Some fun tracks, but not something I would usually listen to a whole album of. It did inspire some adorable toddler dancing, though.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Aug 12 2022

Found a few of the transitions between songs a bit jarring, but otherwise so good.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Aug 15 2022

Enjoyed this more than I expected. Found it accessible and it suited my mood.

Aug 16 2022

Enjoyed this from start to finish, the familiar songs and the new-to-me ones, too. Plus, Bohemian Rhapsody.

Dookie by Green Day
Aug 29 2022
Scott 2 by Scott Walker
Sep 01 2022
Thriller by Michael Jackson
Sep 06 2022
Happy Sad by Tim Buckley
Sep 08 2022

Sort of liked Buzzin’ Fly. Otherwise can’t say I was a fan.

Sea Change by Beck
Sep 13 2022

I liked it okay, but none of the songs other than the couple I already knew stood out to me.

High Violet by The National
Sep 14 2022

Back and forth between a three and a four on this one. Didn’t really catch me until Runaway, then there were a few others I also liked. In the end, enough of it was unremarkable for me that I’m going with a three.

We're Only In It For The Money by The Mothers Of Invention
Sep 15 2022

My thoughts on finishing this album were something along the lines of: What just happened? I feel like my brain is leaking out of my ears. Did people get paid actual money to do this? I only listened to the first 15-20 seconds of most tracks because that's all I could take. Not even "so bad it's good."

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
Sep 19 2022

Well, that was disappointing after Lust for Life. Didn't care for this one.

Sep 22 2022

Really enjoyed this. Could have done without Jamaica Jerk-Off. (Haha, I see I’m not the only one who feels that way.)

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Oct 10 2022
The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
Oct 24 2022

I can get why it was included, but I just couldn’t really get into it.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Oct 25 2022
Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Oct 27 2022
Phaedra by Tangerine Dream
Nov 03 2022

I was listening while I was cleaning the house and sort of kept forgetting I was listening to it. I didn't dislike it, but just sort of meh.

The Beach Boys Today! by The Beach Boys
Nov 07 2022

Not a good sign when a two minute long song feels too long. A couple were kind of catchy, but mostly I found them annoying.

Horses by Patti Smith
Nov 08 2022
Queen II by Queen
Nov 14 2022

I liked this but found it mostly unremarkable. Every once in a while a song would make me think, yep, this is Queen.

Duck Rock by Malcolm McLaren
Nov 18 2022

Started out just sort of meh for me and then I feel like it got progressively weirder, and not in a good way.

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Nov 22 2022

Enjoyed this. Also, it helped me power through some of my mountain of housework during nap time, which is I'm sure exactly what they had in mind for their music.

Faith by George Michael
Nov 23 2022
