Out Of The Blue

Electric Light Orchestra

3/5

The second half was way better than the first half. It’s like ELO made a stasium rock album before anyone knew what the fuck stadium rock was.

Wild Is The Wind

Nina Simone

4/5

Solid album throughout with some real classics on there. Always love some Nina.

Young Americans

David Bowie

4/5

I will forever be a Bowie fan. This is probably one of his most accessible albums for new fans as well.

The Visitors

ABBA

4/5

Super based album. Much better than the usual ABBA fare. This is going into my regular rotation.

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

3/5

Super based album. Much better than the usual ABBA fare. This is going into my regular rotation.

Appetite For Destruction

Guns N' Roses

3/5

Lots of hair metal meets hard rock here. Definitely see some early hard rock DNA in here that would go on to influence modern bands.

Our Aim Is To Satisfy

Red Snapper

4/5

Lots of dub mixed in with DnB. Going into my regular rotation. Buying it on CD for any late night driving sessions

Arc Of A Diver

Steve Winwood

3/5

An alright album, nothing outstanding. Very Phil Collins-esque

Violent Femmes

The OG folk punk album

American Pie

Who knew Don McLean wrote more than just American Pie?

Carole King

3/5

R&B for the yt folks

Night Life

Ray Price

2/5

Yup, that sure was a country album

Here, My Dear

Marvin Gaye

3/5

Solid Marvin Gaye album. It’s classic R&B: you can’t go wrong.

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

3/5

It’s not Miles’ best work, but it’s cromulent enough.

NEU! 75

Neu!

3/5

Not a bad little krautrock album

Darklands

The Jesus And Mary Chain

2/5

This one was a miss for me. Just a lot of generic alt rock sounds and the use of drum machine definitely made it feel more hollow

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

5/5

Quintessential Smiths

Post Orgasmic Chill

Solid album out of left-field. Going into my regular rotation.

What an incredibly boring album

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69)

Eh. Interesting enough at first, but quickly became repetitive.

Blondie

3/5

Overall solid, the B side is way better than the A side

Electric Prunes

The Electric Prunes

3/5

Yup

Me Against The World

2Pac

2/5

Not the biggest 2Pac fan, so I can’t say this album really did anything for me. Probably won’t listen to it again.

Protection

Massive Attack

3/5

Not bad. The instrumental tracks definitely outshone the ones with vocals.

Idlewild

Everything But The Girl

2/5

Just not for me

World Clique

Deee-Lite

3/5

Corny, but in a fun way

Pelican West

Haircut 100

4/5

Reminiscent of Talking Heads and The Psychedelic Furs. Good, clean New Wave fun.

Good, solid garage rock

The Kinks do Rubber Soul

Quiet Life

Japan

Hybrid Theory

Linkin Park

5/5

Phenomenal debut album. Easily one of their strongest offerings and one of the best nu-metal offerings of the time.

All Mod Cons

The Jam

2/5

I’m starting to think British new wave just isn’t for me

Call of the Valley

Shivkumar Sharma

2/5
