This is the classic Pearl Jam record. Vedder's voice is so on point.

James Brown Live At The Apollo
James Brown
This is mostly interesting as a peek into a moment in history, the early James Brown Show. The highlight is probably the introduction. There are a couple of fun performances, but honestly a lot of this pretty dated at this point 60 years later.

It was fun to hear the hit songs again. Half the album holds up pretty well, half suffers from poor songwriting. In the end, I did not need to hear this entire record. It is a cool album cover though.

I love this album from the very first line that "Jesus died for somebody's sins but not mine". The excitement in this music is still vibrant. The poetry and emotion and raw rock. Free Money and Redondo Beach are favorites but the whole record sparkles and crackles.

If You're Feeling Sinister
Belle & Sebastian
This the classic Belle and Sebastian chill vibe. Immediately recognizable. Judy and the Dream of Horses is a favorite on this record. And Like Dylan in the Movies.

The Wall
Pink Floyd
This has some great songs, no doubt. But I tire of the sketches and the sometimes ridiculous over-the-top approach to writing these lyrics. And this loses a star just for Roger Waters being such a horrible jerk. I think if you could pare this back to a single (not double) album, avoid the worst parts and try to forget who Roger Waters is... and this would be a true classic.

I know it is a classic but I'd say a third of the songs are lesser Dylan songs in my book. Visions of Johanna is a favorite. Also Stuck Inside Mobile... it is really good but not my favorite byba long shot.
