3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

All Ratings

Nevermind

Nirvana

4/5

Somehow I hadn't ever listened to this whole album? They had a greater range than I'd expected from the singles.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

4/5

Everything Must Go

Manic Street Preachers

4/5

I might have liked this a lot if I'd listened to it back in the day! Fun mix of heavy guitars and horns on some tracks. Lyrics are probably worth revisiting.

Parachutes

Coldplay

2/5

Sounds pretty, but also boring.

Highway to Hell

AC/DC

5/5

Stoopid in the best way.

Heroes

David Bowie

5/5

An all-time classic, peak Bowie. It still sounds like the future to me. The orientalism of "The Secret Life of Arabia" is really the only miss here.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot

Wilco

5/5

An all-time favorite

The Fat Of The Land

The Prodigy

3/5

Maybe it’s so influential it retrospectively sounds like something I’ve heard before?

Melody A.M.

Röyksopp

3/5

Sounds great but didn't really capture my interest.

Tarkus

Emerson, Lake & Palmer

3/5

Parklife

Blur

4/5

Super solid album. I'll always choose Blur over Oasis.

5/5

An all-time favorite.

3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...

Arrested Development

5/5

This really holds up.

Nina Simone

4/5

Wow. What range, both vocally and in song selection.

5/5

So awesome. A lot like his father's music, but more structured and more modern production.

Aja

Steely Dan

5/5

Always so perfect

Coles Corner

Richard Hawley

4/5

Solid album. Not sure if it's my thing or not.

2/5

I tried. But I just can’t.

Hadn't listened in a while and hadn't realized how deeply embedded in my brain this album is.

My favorite Smiths album.

4/5

Wish I’d had more time with this one.

The Dark Side Of The Moon

Pink Floyd

5/5

4/5

Wow. Much British.
