The Köln Concert

Keith Jarrett

2/5

Very interesting finding out that this is all improv. Wasn’t really that into listening to just piano for over an hour but also didn’t hate it.

Introducing The Hardline According To Terence Trent D'Arby

All Ratings

Green Onions

Booker T. & The MG's

3/5

Not exactly something I would just sit and listen to but has a ton of classics on it.

The Slim Shady LP

Eminem

1/5

Even if it's satirical, the lyrics are rough. Just not something I want to listen to.

Blonde On Blonde

Bob Dylan

3/5

Bob Dylan just has one of those voices where it works for some songs and it doesn't for others. It worked for like half the album.

Young Americans

David Bowie

4/5

I only ever knew Fame off of this album, which is still such a bop. But the rest is still really groovy. Across The Universe is so good.

Rocks

Aerosmith

2/5

Not the best Aerosmith album, but it's Aerosmith. I like the songs that sound more metal. Just reminds me of playing Guitar Hero with my brother.

5/5

had heard of bad brains before but never heard any of their music, i am immediately a huge fan, funk, punk & reggae is right up my alley

Adele

2/5

Adele has an incredible voice but this isn't exactly my kind of music, it doesn't help that at my old job we played the same radio station everyday and I would hear at least 1 of these songs several times a day, every single day. I did actually enjoy the last 3 songs on the album though, with Million Years Ago being my favorite.

Incredible Bongo Band

2/5

there were a few fun songs in here but i don't need an entire album of bongo centric music

Fifth Dimension

The Byrds

3/5

Wasn’t bad but also nothing that blew me away. I liked the more jammy type songs.

Technique

New Order

4/5

This album goes so hard, there’s a few songs I don’t really care about but all the others make up for it. So good.

In The Wee Small Hours

Frank Sinatra

3/5

Love Frank Sinatra but there’s nothing crazy special about this album imo

Kala

M.I.A.

1/5

There’s a few fun songs that still bop but honestly outside of a club I’m not listening to this lol.

Band On The Run

Paul McCartney and Wings

5/5

Some of the songs were almost too long but honestly so good, can’t believe I hadn’t heard anything other than the actual band on the run song. Will absolutely listen to this again.

2112

Rush

5/5

Love anything rush creates, on a whole other level.

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

5/5

Can’t believe I had never listened to Ella Fitzgerald, instantly a favorite jazz musician. Loved this album.

Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

5/5

I’ve always loved this album, that’s all for everyone is probably one of my favorite songs of theirs.

Among The Living

Anthrax

4/5

Very fun metal, remembered a few songs from my childhood.

Toys In The Attic

2/5

This definitely reminds me of playing guitar hero with my brother as a kid. Only really care for a few of the songs though.

Sound of Silver

3/5

Really loved like 3 of the songs, didn’t care much for the others.

The Number Of The Beast

It was good, but also not my favorite kind of metal

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears

The Mamas & The Papas

4/5

Very fun very groovy

Too Rye Ay

Dexys Midnight Runners

4/5

Really fun, come on eileen is a classic but the rest of the album is just as great

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

3/5

Okay, listen. I love the music, love the jams. Janis Joplin was incredibly talented and being such a big fan of Remi Wolf it’s really cool making the connection in their style. However, Janis’s voice is really something you have to be in the mood for. It’s perfect for vibing with friends & smoking, or going to a show, seeing her live would have been incredible, but I listened to this album while I was highly caffeinated and getting angry at something at work so it was just not a good time for it lol. But I can recognize that in the right setting this album is great.

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

2/5

The funky songs: yes, everything else: absolutely not

Some really good songs, however the second song on the album kiiiiinda ruined it. Also rip imagine, that’s forever ruined lol.

Keith Jarrett

2/5

Very interesting finding out that this is all improv. Wasn’t really that into listening to just piano for over an hour but also didn’t hate it.

The Pleasure Principle

Iron Maiden

3/5

Pretty solid, probably my fav Iron Maiden album so far

2/5

There were a few songs I enjoyed but overall not that into it.

Scott 2

Scott Walker

1/5

Boring. Also he said f*g.

A Rush Of Blood To The Head

Beautiful Freak

Eels

5/5

Had never heard of this band and was really enjoying it, then recognized the song from Shrek. Very much my vibes, ended up working to more eels and then a Spotify radio based off the album.

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen

1/5

Still not into this kinda music. He has a nice voice I just don’t really enjoy all of it together.

Leftism

Leftfield

1/5

I only liked Melt, everything else is not my jam. Melt reminded me of Fez.

I Am a Bird Now

Antony and the Johnsons

1/5

I liked What Can I Do?, it sounded like Radiohead. That’s about it tho. The music was nice I just think the vocals weren’t it.

Black Monk Time

The Monks

2/5

I liked it, didn’t love it. Fun hearing music that influenced the punk scene.

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

5/5

So good, have listened to this album many times, always gets me hyped up!!

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

4/5

This is exactly why I started using this album a day thing. Sure I’ve heard of A Tribe Called Quest, I’d even heard 1 or 2 of these songs but I’d never go out of my way to listen to the whole album. It was really cool! I really loved the jazzy aspects.

Virgin Suicides

Air

5/5

Never heard of this movie somehow. Absolutely LOVE this. It makes me want to watch the movie now. A mix of shoegaze/dreampop, psychedelic rock, some funky electro in there. Really, really cool.

Tommy

The Who

2/5

There are a few songs I enjoyed, Pinball Wizard is a classic. Didn’t really care much for it though and struggled to make it all the way through.

Crime Of The Century

Supertramp

2/5

Just some easy listening, would probably have on in the background while at a barbecue. Don’t really care to listen to it any other time though.

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

4/5

Funny little album

Sea Change

Beck

4/5

Really fantastic. I’ve been familiar with some of Beck’s work but haven’t sat and listened to an entire album and I really enjoyed this. Felt some similar vibes from other bands I love, felt the sadness, will be listening again.

Daydream Nation

Sonic Youth

3/5

Love sonic youth, loved a few songs on this album but I don’t picture myself listening to it front to back again.
