Common
4/5
Duplicate?
Decent album. Nice to get a r&b/rap album for a change. Some good music/beats
I don't know what it is about Common, i'm not into his stuff at all but this album just hits right for me for some reason.
Alice In Chains
3/5
I really really wanted to like this album more but beside the big songs, i thought things were just good.
ZZ Top
4/5
Great blues album.
Femi Kuti
2/5
Not sure why but I couldn't really get into this
Joni Mitchell
4/5
Not necessarily my type of music but listening to this it's just so noticeably how good it is and how great a story teller Joni is. I very much enjoyed the bass in this too
Paul Simon
4/5
Great over all feel with some amazing songs and sounds.
Bob Dylan
3/5
it's ok.
The Shamen
2/5
Bruce Springsteen
3/5
I wasn't really into this album but I did save 3 songs from it. So it must be ok.

Didn't enjoy this album at all. Just not into it today

Already had this album. Duplicate.

did nothing for me.
Led Zeppelin
4/5
Yup, good album
The Rolling Stones
3/5
Nothing super exciting about this album.
SZA
1/5
I couldn't finish this album. It's just exactly the type of music and style I don't like.
Orange Juice
2/5
meh
The Beach Boys
3/5
Minus a couple songs (including God Only Knows) i was just waiting for the album to finish. I feel like it's a good album but the style of music just wasn't working for me for some reason. A little disappointing considering I have a couple friends that would live and die on this album.
Bon Jovi
4/5
Some overboard 80's hair metal .. but you just cant deny that 8 out of the 10 songs (for my generation) I knew and are good or better.
Van Morrison
4/5
Astral Weeks - amazing song
Sweet thing - very solid song. fun guitar work
Cyprus Avenue - fun song
The Way Young Lovers Do - really good song. jazzy

Great album
R.E.M.
3/5
Sidewinder sleeps tonight - forgot this song. very good
Everybody Hurts - still a gut punch of a song. Lots of history to it for me.

OK album over all. Some great classic songs, a couple new ones and ones that didn't do anything for me.
James Taylor
3/5
it's ok
Siouxsie And The Banshees

Seconds in, I could tell this was my type of music.
Spellbound is a great song
Into the light: guitar reminds me of the Police. another great song
AC/DC
3/5
Decent rock album.
Def Leppard
4/5
This one is unfair for me to rate too. With very very slight 80's metal cheese ... this is still an absolute power house of an album. 8 out of 10 songs I still remember most the words to. I'm not even sure if I had this album back then.
Machito
2/5

Classic
Hugh Masekela

Gorillaz
4/5

2/5
Meh. didn't really do anything for me.

Joni Mitchell
3/5

2/5
Nothing resonating with me.
Funkadelic

4/5
Such a fun listen. I love everything about the instrument

Jerry Lee Lewis
4/5
I didn't think I was going to enjoy this but damn it was a great high energy performance.
Norah Jones
4/5
I don't think this is a 3 but I don't think it's a 4 either. Very good album though. I'll go with 4. Good job me.

I wasn't in the mood for this style of music at all today but it was still a good listen.

3/5
it's ok.

3/5
1 great song, a couple ok songs
Dr. Octagon

An amazing singer and lyricist but this album was just ok for me.
Leonard Cohen
4/5
I don't know what it is, but I enjoyed this much more than I expected.

A fun listen.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
Symphony for the devil is absolutely a 10 out of 10 the rest of the album OK
Can
3/5
Really good background working music.
Incredible Bongo Band
3/5
I cant say I was expecting anything with this band name and title but it was way better than expected. Especially the first track (Apache) obviously.
The Velvet Underground
1/5
Not sure what it was but this was a horrible listen. I think it was just the dissidence in the lead guitar throughout the entire album. It physically hurt my head. Not sure if I liked any song because I couldn't focus past the guitar. :(
1/5
I'm not a fan of country in general. This album didn't change that opinion
Stereolab
3/5
Good background music for working.
Ella Fitzgerald
3/5
Smoooooth voice.
Dead Kennedys

A couple notable tracks and I was pleasantly surprised by the Prince track but some uninspired music overall
Ramblin' Jack Elliott

Astrud Gilberto
3/5
Leonard Cohen
3/5
Really good emotional album
Steely Dan
2/5
Didn't enjoy this at all. sorry
Cream
4/5
I would have rated this album a 3 but the skill of these musicians just shines through. I loved the drums. Hearing Eric's guitars sounds to me like listening to one of the pioneers of later rock ... which of course it is.
Fun Lovin' Criminals
3/5
Steve Earle
3/5
There are Steve Earle songs i have known and loved for decades but I do not enjoy country music as the norm. That being said, for some reason listening to this album didn't make me want to instantly turn it off. I'm still giving it a 3 .. but that's high praise for country from me.
Michael Jackson
5/5
Come on. Do we really have to talk about the rating on this? Regardless if you like the music or the artist or the genre or anything about this album. the cultural impact and longevity of it's influence ... it has to be a 5 out of 5.
Jane's Addiction
4/5
Really good album.
Doves
3/5

The Byrds
1/5
I obviously knew the band as was interested to see what this album would be like but ... and I hate to say this for any art ... but I didn't like this album at all. It just didn't hold my interest and I didn't enjoy it.
Say one good thing? They had good harmonies.
Oasis

Neil Young & Crazy Horse
4/5
I mean ... come on. Great album and fucking incredible bookend songs.
Merle Haggard
1/5
Country. does nothing for me.

4/5
It definitely was listening to something big that happened in history the music. Very simple punk rock very simple lyrics but really fun to listen to
The Pretty Things
3/5
Decent rock.
Joni Mitchell
4/5
I’ve heard JM’s big songs but I’ve never really heard more than that. I was very surprised I liked this album as much as I did. Great vocals, strong voice, so clear in her singing, interesting lyrics, great music (bass and guitar especially)
Judas Priest
3/5
I thought this album would be "harder"
Spiritualized
3/5
I've gone back and forth on this between a 1, 2 or 3. Broken Heart, which seems like a filler sing might actually be my favorite.
However, every song is just a wall of sound. I don't mind that at all but it's almost every song, all song. Listening to this was very tiring on my ears.
Love
2/5
didn't hit at all. sorry
Massive Attack
4/5
Great great great album. "Protection" is 10/10

I like to think that I'm not being biased here because I grew up with this album but this a pretty much perfect album.

Billy Joel
5/5
I feel like this one is unfair too. I am biased. This was one of the albums that my parents had in their collection when I was growing up. I listened to this album a lot and loved it. 42 street I would say is still my favorite but this one is still a 5 star album.
Massive Attack
4/5
Such a great album to either focus on or put on in the background
Dexys Midnight Runners
2/5
Besides Come on Eileen, nothing really caught my interest. Not sure why this is on the list actually.
Throbbing Gristle
1/5
Sorry but I do not appreciate your music.
Say one good thing: I’m trying but I don’t know
Leonard Cohen
4/5
Such an amazing song writer. To take that voice which is great but monotone and extremely relaxed and still contain such emotion and pull you in to these stories is a great feat.
k.d. lang
2/5
This album kind of surprised me. That is because her previous album that I listen to on this list. I really enjoyed it even though it’s country. However, I don’t like so much. It was very very country.

Fela Kuti
5/5
Fuuuuuck. This album blew me away. Amazing from start to finish. Truly a perfect album

3/5
I feel like I've head this album before. It's the 3rd Leonard Cohen album on my list.
It was ok.
Muddy Waters
4/5
Great blues music
2Pac
3/5
It was ok but I feel that not being American or black made it so I couldn’t really connect with this album. I wanted to but I couldn’t.
So good beats and some decent songs
CHIC
3/5
It's alright over all but what really grabbed me was the amazing bass and guitar playing. Niles baby!
Red Snapper

5/5
Simon & Garfunkel
4/5
What’s there to say. Great album. Great music and harmonies. Just great.

Queen Latifah
2/5
Meh, it's ok. didn't really do much for me though
Public Enemy
4/5
I really enjoyed this album. And I had problems with connecting to some earlier. Rap albums, where I felt like I was missing out on everything just from a cultural standpoint because I’m not American black. With this album, I realize that that was not the case this album was just so much better than 2Pac or BIG.
Deep Purple
2/5
2 good song but the rest didn't do anything for me.
Nick Drake
3/5
Listened to this while cleaning and such. After reading the reviews I feel like I should go back and listen again

2/5
Nope
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
5/5
I've listened to this a couple times and every time I do I feel like I'm doing it an injustice because I'm not paying enough attention to ever single lyric. It a really well done album that has so much feeling and emotion to it in every song. As I also know a bit about the album and have friends that went through the same thing ... it really hits hard for me.
Excellent listen and added to my rotation of listening.
Pixies

I really do like Bjork but this album was just ok. I'm not sure why it's on the list. :(
Mike Oldfield

When I saw the name come up, I misread it as Oakenfold. I unfortunately was disappointed.
a-ha
2/5
"Take on me" has 2.2 billion streams on Spotify? DAmmnn.
Anyhow, I cant tell if "Take on me" and "The sun always shines on T.V." are just that much better or they sound really, REALLY 80's too. Overall an ok album.

Fucking crackers!
Herbie Hancock
3/5
good background while working music
AC/DC
4/5
As I listened to the Rock radio station growing up, I'm very sick of hearing AC/DC but there really is no denying this album is amazing. A amazing amount of well known songs for one album.
Gezzus ... over 2 billion listens for all the songs on Spotify.
The 13th Floor Elevators
2/5
It started out solid and then by the 3rd or 4th song the electric jug just became too prominent for me. It was ok but that jug just couldn't escape my ears as the primary instrument
The Beach Boys

Ok. We get it. You can harmonize.
I could never get in to the BBs though.

a couple good songs but the rest were just ok for me.
The Saints
3/5
at first glance, the sounds like just plain old punk rock, but the more you listen to it the more complexity creeps its way into the music. I went from “I think I’ve heard the song 10 times in a row" to this is amazing punk music.

Are we sure this isn't Duran Duran?
Meh, didn't do anything for me.
Spacemen 3

Chicago
2/5
I couldn't really get into this.
Sarah Vaughan
3/5
Great voice
Metallica
3/5
I love Metallica and like classical music and the idea of combining the two (like Apocolyptica) is a master [sic] idea. However, i feel like the strings need to be under the original music a bit more. I know nothing and feel bad for making these comments but it just feels like the merging of the two styles is a little off.
After saying all that, i still love it.
Ministry
4/5
Love it!
Blood, Sweat & Tears
3/5
A couple great songs that I knew but most songs were just "too 70s" for me. Which is odd because I love the 70s

Mariah Carey
2/5
She sure likes to do runs. I didn't enjoy this album at all. Not my type of music at all. That being said, she has a great voice and I 100% understand why this album is on the list. Just don't make me listen to it again please.

Cypress Hill
2/5
Didn't really do any thiing for me.
Pulp
3/5
I had this one while working and I get the feeling I didn't focus enough on the lyrics. I think that could have changed my opinion of the album. Still pretty decent.

Amy Winehouse

A fun listen and the woman could sing.
Kanye West
1/5
OMG ... I couldn't finish this album. Musically it was good but the message of all the songs just sounded like 15 year old boys trying to sound cool and tough. It just made me feel horrible listening to every song.

Listening to this album reminded me that I used to put it on when I was a kid (must have been under 10) and so it just resonated more. This already was a amazing album but I enjoyed the fuck out of it. Plus, the 3 top songs just felt better within the album.

Love Prince. Like dinner of his music. Some great songs on here though and the musical talent is fun to hear on the live tracks.

It's ok. A coupte great songs ... but listening to this. I cant help but think of where he went after this.
The Kinks
2/5
Only listened to about half the album. It was ok, i guess. It didn't really hold my interest though.
Kanye West
3/5
All the colours of the rainbow listening to this one. One minute I was uninterested, the next I hated it, the next it was decent, then next I was really loving the music, the next I remember what a c*nt he is (mental issues aside), the next I thought it was a great.
So middle of the road then.
Bill Callahan
3/5
Ok. Good "in the background" music. I like his voice and how in my ear it sounds on this recording. Besides that, it was a ok album to me.

Waylon Jennings
2/5
The first time I started listening to this, I actually was enjoying it. Now in general, I typically hate country music, but this wasn’t feeling me that same feeling. I went back to relisten to it this morning and was not enjoying it at all. I have no idea how I feel about this album now.
Beth Orton

Bonnie "Prince" Billy

Lauryn Hill
3/5
Not my kind of music so I was not excited about listening to it. I just wanted to get through it .. but pretty much every songs music just pulled me to it. The vocals are OK mostly to me but the experience of the in between parts and the music makes this a really good album to me. I saved a lot of songs.
Excellent drum and base.

Man. I grew up on this album. It was in my parents collection. I don't think it's fair to ask me to rate this one because it's not just about the music for me.
I love love love 1985 & Jet. Amazing songs.
As for the song Band on the Run. This has always been a favorite song of mine. From the lyrics, chord progression, changes. It will always be a perfect song to me.
Depeche Mode
3/5
Their big songs off this album; Personal Jesus, Enjoy the Silence and Policy of Truth are amazing songs. I was surprised that pretty much all the other songs I didn't enjoy at all.
Gillian Welch

I know this album is probably good but it was another example of not understanding US black culture because i'm not american or black. That being said, i've really enjoyed some of this music. So maybe this just doesn't hit for me because of the simple fact that I don't like it.
The music didn't do anything for me.

As a white boy from canada that doesn't get US black culture... can i just say this album is fucking awesome. Lyrically it still hits, Chuck D's flow is simple and sounds great, Flavour (sic) Flav is amazing, Terminator X's beats are fucking great.
Coldplay
4/5
First off, there are some obviously well known song here that I really like. "The Scientist" is my favorite and has been for ages and will be a song I love till I die. That being said, what I found most impressive about this album is that past the songs I know and are popular ... the, as I like to call them, "filler" song are really good too. This is a great ALBUM. all of it.

Count Basie & His Orchestra
3/5
Great album. Great for working and listening.
The Sonics
4/5
Fuck me ... what a voice and energy. I thought this would be a run of the mill 60s album but this is HARD bluesy music. I can 100% see why this album is on this list. 1st its a great album with lots of covers but 2nd this feels like a transition record that showed future rockers on how to take 60 music to the next harder rock level. Awesome!
Willie Nelson
