Popular Reviews

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears by The Mamas & The Papas

Even if every song on the album sucked, except for California dreamin, it’d still be a 3 because that song slaps so hard. Good album. Would listen again.

Play by Moby
Mar 03 2023

Shockingly good. Would listen again.

Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Mar 06 2023

Sounded like good musicians just too much the same

Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
Mar 07 2023

Lots of harmonies, nothing really caught my attention.

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Mar 08 2023

The Wikipedia description made the album make a lot more sense. I really liked his sound, and it was good to program to. Would listen again.

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Mar 09 2023

It was a good listen, I liked their sound. Felt kind of like live music, but in studio form.

Dear Science by TV On The Radio
Mar 10 2023

Shout me out was my fav. Sounds just like all other TV on the radio.

Eagles by Eagles
Mar 13 2023

It was good, sounded like the Eagles. All their music is pretty good tbh.

Konnichiwa by Skepta
Mar 14 2023

It was easy to listen to. Refreshing to hear different country rap music. Although British accents are hard to understand for me, a lot of time I had no clue what he was saying.

Liege And Lief by Fairport Convention
Mar 15 2023

Liked Songs: Matty Groves Medley: The Lark in the morning I like the jam sessions. I like the singers voice. I like folk music it turns out.

Brown Sugar by D'Angelo
Mar 17 2023

Well, that was unexpected. I loved the bass lines. I actively listened to every song, even caught myself dancing during my workout. Nice.

Homework by Daft Punk
Mar 21 2023

It was a pretty easy listen. Started off weird with first 3 songs, then it jammed. Would listen again.

Mar 23 2023

It was the biggest surprise album yet. Really well put together. I liked almost all the songs, and would listen again.

British Steel by Judas Priest
Mar 24 2023

Exactly what I expected. Not for me.

Dig Your Own Hole by The Chemical Brothers
Mar 28 2023

A song or two had catchy riffs. Not sure how someone could listen to the whole album through. Not sure what mindset i would need to be in.

Mar 29 2023

Pretty good album. Lots of folky type songs, took me by surprise.

The Man Who by Travis
Mar 30 2023

It was a good listen

Smokers Delight by Nightmares On Wax

Billion Dollar Babies by Alice Cooper
Apr 03 2023

I’m sure someone out there rocks out to it, it’s just not good for me. Like drama club rock.

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Apr 04 2023

It was a good listen. I really liked some of the jam sessions, solos, and Bob Marley because of the honeymoon. Would listen again if you're in a vibing mood.

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Apr 05 2023

The band was fantastic. Elvis is always pretty great.

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Apr 07 2023

Wild world is one of my all time favorite songs. 4/5 for just that. Rest of the album pretty good and listenable. Would listen again.

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Apr 10 2023

Lemmywinks Every song is the same lemmy, driving metal. Would listen again.

The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Apr 21 2023

May 02 2023

May 08 2023

Jun 16 2023

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
Jun 19 2023

Listened to the whole thing. Don’t remember one song.
