Morrison Hotel
The DoorsPeace Frog is a bop, and I enjoy the groovy keyboard action throughout the album. Morrison's lyrics are amusingly on-the-nose, at times. Not exactly wall-to-wall bangers tho.

Honestly really dug it, very toe-tappy and bombastic at times and the track titles mostly reflected the vibe of the songs which isn’t a given for instrumental music, but appreciated. Also shout out to my boy Teddy the Toad, in deference to Peace Frog off Morrison Hotel.
The vibrato thing she does kind of freaks me out. I think she's probably a good person, but not much here for me. 2 stars, mostly because of the bassist being funkier than he had any business being on a pop-country album.
Really enjoyable listen, Frontier Psychiatrist was a song I only ever knew casually and in passing (and I didn't know the name or artist). Hearing the album build slowly and then having that drop was a fun surprise. My only gripe, if you could call it that, was that I didn't hear anything that I recognized as a hook until "Electricity" which is the 10th track on the album. I feel like the whole thing would be just as effective (and more concise) if you chopped off the front 25% of the runtime. I'll be coming back to this, for sure.
I am usually not super into ambitious solo albums. This certainly is one. Weirdly, my favorite parts were the R&B sections, “Medley; I’m So Proud…” was a welcome reprieve from the genre-hopping of the rest of the album. The guy is obviously some kind of genius, but I didn’t find myself wanting to know any more about him.
This was great, poignant messaging wrapped up in a well-paced and catchy lil parcel. My favorite track was Monsters.
Full of anthems and surprisingly crunchy riffs. Great album.
Sleepy kraut rock. This was gonna be a 3 but then the vocals came in and legit made me want to take a nap.
