Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Aug 23 2022

Boring, too many tracks that had little variety from the previous. Smooth voice but not for me.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Aug 24 2022

some great tracks, followed by some empty fillers too. Vocal recording quality sounds too dated or effect heavy or something.

Queen II by Queen
Aug 25 2022

Holy shit chills from the start. No real catchy hooks that are that memorable. But the sounds and journey was great.

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Aug 26 2022

great voice. can hear the influences they had in many other bands. Kind of a lull though. Nothing super memorable or impactful.

Low by David Bowie
Aug 29 2022

I don't know, it's okay. Not really my thing.

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Aug 30 2022

not into it, pretty generic jam band

Dummy by Portishead
Sep 02 2022

meh, it's okay.

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Sep 07 2022

eh not for me. Leather strapped cowboys are a funny visual though

american dream by LCD Soundsystem
Sep 08 2022

Intro overshadowed the rest of the album. Amazing track. The rest of the album is musically very interesting, but the vocals feel like a bad 80's impression.

Parachutes by Coldplay
Sep 09 2022

How did I miss this one in it's time. I wrote coldplay off as sorta sissy pop music, but they can rock.

Superfuzz Bigmuff by Mudhoney
Sep 16 2022

sounded pretty ahead of its time. tapered off heavily after track 1. Not really my genre

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Sep 19 2022

A fun live album. But I don't like live albums to begin with.

Fear Of A Black Planet by Public Enemy
Sep 20 2022

It's alright, felt like too many breakdowns/speeches/interruptions. Not enough hooky jams to be memorable.

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
Sep 27 2022

What a phenomenal voice. Fun live album, even though I usually hate live albums it seems to make more sense for it's time.

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Sep 28 2022

I mean it's Bob Dylan. It's groovy, it's bluegrassy, it's got it's own twang. I ca

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Sep 29 2022

I couldn't really get into Ozzy's voice, but what a group of expert rockers.

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Oct 04 2022

Too dated for me. Fun for historical context, but the recording is rough, and every song is basically the same blaring noise.

Welcome To The Pleasuredome by Frankie Goes To Hollywood
Oct 05 2022

I don't know, it feels really cheesy for some reason. Has that typical 80's vocal inflection I can't stand.

Screamadelica by Primal Scream
Oct 06 2022

wow really interesting. that opening track nails a beautiful homage to 60's bands like the Rolling Stones and The Beatles. After that it takes a dive into a more bizarre 80's/90's amalgamation, seems like they couldn't decide on a cohesive direction for the album. Has flavors of Oasis. Gets back to that 60s rock vibe at Come Together, and Loaded. I think my biggest complaint is the lack of direction it seems like they were trying to do two very different things with the album.

Copper Blue by Sugar
Dec 16 2022

Definitely a product of its time. Feels locked in on that particular era's style, wouldn't really call it a timeless album for that reason. Overly stylized I guess.
