Hard Again

Muddy Waters

2/5

A great blues album, makes you wanna sit on a porch with a bottle of whiskey. But very much like drinking whiskey, it all just becomes a muddled blur the longer it goes on. I guess Muddy Waters is an appropriate name.

The Chronic

Dr. Dre

5/5

One of the top 5 best West Coast rap albums of all time. Need I say more?

The Stranger

Billy Joel

5/5

Billy Joel made this album as an early 20-something on Long Island. As a fellow 20-something on Long Island, a lot of the themes still stand the test of time.

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

3/5

Dummy

Portishead

1/5

Teenage Head

Flamin' Groovies

2/5

Pick a sound for God’s sake. Are you a Beatles remake? Elvis? Any folk band ever? Hopefully they’ve decided in the 51 years since this album came out.

This Nation’s Saving Grace

The Fall

2/5

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

3/5

How appropriately timed.

C'est Chic

CHIC

4/5

At first I thought it was just gonna be a disco album, but I was pleasantly surprised at the mixture of sounds. Disco isn’t dead baby!

Machine Head

Deep Purple

4/5

New York Dolls

3/5

Femi Kuti

4/5

He’s certainly not his father, but it’s still a solid album that is part of the foundation that led to the current worldwide popularity of Afrobeats, especially those coming out of Nigeria. I’d do 3.75 if I could.

The Wall

Pink Floyd

2/5

I’m sure many people love it, but I felt like I forced myself through basically all of Volume 2
