Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Sep 30 2022

Influential album, great for it's time. High energy bops. Got a bit stale and repetitive. Knew - Tutti Frutti, Long Tall Sally Standouts - Ready Teddy, True Fine Mama

Oct 01 2022

Not a huge fan, but I recognize the significance and that I'm not the target audience. Enjoyable but didn't really leave any kind of impact.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Oct 02 2022

Not my thing. Strange for the time, strange for now. An interesting blend of genres that didn't really do it for me.

The Boatman's Call by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Oct 03 2022

Beautiful at times, but overall pretty boring.

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Oct 04 2022

Great album. One of the underrated bands of the era. I believe this album would fit in today's scene with its masterful guitar work and hints of modern alternative rock.

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Oct 05 2022

Had never heard of this album, and I enjoyed it.

Oct 06 2022

One of my favourite albums of all time. It's got hits, deep cuts, versatility and it perfectly captures the psychedelic phase of The Beatles career with their classic songwriting. Makes me happy from the first note. 5 stars isn't enough.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Oct 07 2022

Excellent album. A great mix of funk and that 90s sludgy sound in the production. Tons of hits, and great album tracks, with zero skips.

Like A Prayer by Madonna
Oct 08 2022

Good album, but for a pop album I feel like the songs are too long and the album drags. I can see it's importance but it doesn't really do it for me.

Out of Step by Minor Threat
Oct 09 2022

Balls to the wall punk music, classic for the era and genre. Clearly influenced many punk bands to follow.

Moondance by Van Morrison
Oct 11 2022

Gorgeous album, very enjoyable and relaxing listen. Great story telling and instrumentation. One of those albums that you forget how good it is.

Oct 12 2022

Very enjoyable listen. Very haunting and interesting takes on a few covers, including Desperado, We'll Meet Again and I Hung My Head, in addition to the obvious Hurt.

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Oct 13 2022

Awesome back to basics blues. It's got energy, soul and it's catchy as hell.

Younger Than Yesterday by The Byrds
Oct 14 2022

Reminds me of what The Beatles were doing at the same time, but in an original kind of way. Interesting songwriting and execution.

American Pie by Don McLean
Oct 16 2022

Beautiful album. A classic for a reason.

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Oct 17 2022

I love this album. Its a great juxtaposition of relaxing and haunting.

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Oct 20 2022

Cool album, upbeat and fairly interesting. Definitely ahead of their time, and appeals to alternative/indie/punk fans.

Disintegration by The Cure
Oct 27 2022

Cool album. The Cute seems to have influenced many of the emo/Lo-Fi bands of recent years.
