Pump
Aerosmith
I have never been an Aerosmith fan. Their songs are earworms to me. It is cool to know where so many of their big hits came from--this album--and hear all the deeper cuts. This album isn't going to make it into my rotation, but it was an almost historical listen.

Mermaid Avenue
Billy Bragg
For some reason, Wilco is huge in my hometown. A few Wilco songs grab me, but for the most part, I don't care for the rest of them. After hearing this album, I discovered the origins of some of those Wilco songs. I also did a little Googling to learn more about Woodie Guthrie, who I only know by name. I was impressed at how many songs are on this album and how many cameos there are.

Tidal
Fiona Apple
One of my top albums of all time. Glad to see it on this list. My wife would argue that my love of Fiona Apple's "Tidal" is a large part of why I married her.
Hauntingly beautiful (I think that's the phrase you use to describe Fiona Apple), sexy, and moody all spring to my mind, too, when I need to describe this collection of songs. The amount of effort that goes into the composition is astounding. I guess that's why she's only released a few albums in the 20+ years she's been gracing us with music.

I only ever knew Lou Reed by name before, but after exploring this album (and some Googling), I know a lot more of him.
So many hits on this album, and then some good deep tracks too. This will be in my rotation for chilling-out music.

The sounds of my teenage years. The hits of a generation. This whole album is filled with hits, and the few deep tracks that never really saw the mainstream are bangers. The quintessential Moby here.
