Tellin’ Stories by The Charlatans
Sep 06 2022

Really chill Brit-Pop album, really good sounds, singer left something to be desired, but that's honestly just my personal preference for vocals

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Sep 07 2022

Hailed as the best Meatloaf album for good reason. Too many ballads in my opinion (3 for a 7 song album). However, powerful vocals, good songwriting, and evocative imagery definitely make this a remarkable album. Add that I'm not a fan of Meatloaf in general, and that makes this something special for sure.

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Sep 08 2022

This album is going to be next go to for either farming in a game or getting work done. Very chill, spacious, and otherwordly. Entirely ahead of its time as well, considering this is from the 70s. I can already hear parts of this album that other artists took inspiration from in their own songs. Bizarre and ethereal with driving beats. A new background favorite.

My Generation by The Who
Sep 09 2022

An album I've already heard, and definitely enjoy. Outstanding sound, especially for the time, and absolutely iconic.

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Sep 12 2022

A passable album, not my favorite, but not bad

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Sep 14 2022

Didn't end up finishing it. It simply wasn't my thing and I just didn't enjoy the lead vocals at all.

Freak Out! by The Mothers Of Invention
Sep 15 2022

A must listen if you're into challenging, experimental albums. I can't even begin to imagine how challenging the recording and mixing process was on this album back in the 60s without the benefit of modern techniques. Truly a concept album before concept albums, with all the Zappa bizareness you would expect.

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake
Sep 26 2022

Outstanding mixing/recording, and the voice of a songbird. Lovely soft lyrics, and a mix of piano, sax, and guitar that is simply sublime.

Space Ritual by Hawkwind
Oct 10 2022

Fantastic, ahead of its time Space Rock album. Phenomenal
