5/5
To an 80's kid growing up on The Fat Boys and Run DMC, this album was a revelation in so many ways. Super smooth beats, great flow, authenticity. This is one of my all time favorite albums for sure.
Dizzee Rascal · 2 likes

If this is grime music, I've learned I am not a fan.

2/5
I didn't enjoy this one. It's very bright and pop-y, not a style I'm into. I will say the singers voice did fit the band well. However, I will never, ever understand the insane popularity of wonderwall. Listening to the album, I couldn't wait for it to be over.
The Undertones
3/5
I enjoyed this album. It was energetic and very enjoyable.
Stevie Wonder
4/5
Very good album. There were a couple of well known favorites, but I enjoyed the whole thing.
Le Tigre
3/5
Eric Clapton
5/5
Excellent album, very much enjoyed this one.
Belle & Sebastian
2/5
Not my style. There were a couple beats I enjoyed in a couple songs, but overall I just didn't enjoy this one.
Mercury Rev
1/5
Not my style. There were a couple beats I enjoyed in a couple songs, but overall I just didn't enjoy this one.
Underworld
3/5
Pretty typical 90's electronica. It was pretty chill for the most part, something I could definitely see as background music or something. A little repetitive for my tastes, but decent overall.
Dr. Octagon
5/5
I loved this album. Great beats, great lines, great entertainment. This goes into regular rotation for sure.
Guns N' Roses
4/5
Classic. Loved it back then, still love it now.
Fleet Foxes
4/5
I like it, it's going into the rotation. Pleasant and original. Caught me by surprise.

3/5
Good times. Y'all.
Tricky

It was on ok

5/5
One of my favorite albums. Easy 5 stars
Leftfield
3/5
I kept waiting for a drop of something, bass or otherwise.
Björk
2/5
Not a Bjork fan.
Stan Getz
4/5
Very smooth and mellow. Went nice with some pipe smoking.
Franz Ferdinand
3/5
Very pop, pretty good. I enjoyed the album more than the song.
The Icarus Line
2/5
Apparently I didn't very much care for this one, I stopped listening to it a couple of tracks in because I was distracted by stuff to do on the weekend, and it just never occurred to me to pick it back up.
The Smiths
2/5
Meh.
Nirvana
4/5
It has its moments but overall, I love this album. I did then, I do now.
The Divine Comedy
3/5
I'm not usually much of a fan of the britpop stuff, but this was a fun album that caught me off guard. Good stuff!
Slipknot
4/5
Banger. I love metal, never cared too much for slipknot, but this is solid.
Lauryn Hill
5/5
She just sounds so good!
Burning Spear
3/5
I do like some old school reggae...
Otis Redding
4/5
Man, Otis Redding is just awesome.
The Flaming Lips
2/5
Today I learned I am not a fan of flaming lips.
Stereolab
3/5
I'm pretty sure this would fall into my sleep music category, mostly really chill, interesting album. Definitely will listen again.
Caetano Veloso
1/5
I tried. I really did. Sorry, but nope.
Isaac Hayes
4/5
Awesome
a-ha
3/5
I'm not a huge fan of 80s pop, but this was pretty good. Singer's voice is great.
Snoop Dogg
5/5
To an 80's kid growing up on The Fat Boys and Run DMC, this album was a revelation in so many ways. Super smooth beats, great flow, authenticity. This is one of my all time favorite albums for sure.
System Of A Down
3/5
I love it better now than I did when it came out.
Violent Femmes
4/5
I've always had a tough time explaining what I like about violent femmes, but I fucking love violent femmes and that's all you need to know.
Fever Ray
3/5
.
Dizzee Rascal
2/5
If this is grime music, I've learned I am not a fan.
Talvin Singh
3/5
It was at least ok
Cypress Hill
3/5
This is another slow burn for me. I did not like Cypress Hill at all back in the 90's, but they grew on me over time. Solid album.
Shack
3/5
Not bad
Solomon Burke
4/5
Not bad at all.
The Prodigy
2/5
It's just so repetitive. I wanted to like it, but no dice.
Creedence Clearwater Revival
4/5
Loved it. I've liked credence for a long time though, so no surprise I already knew most of the album.
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
3/5
Better than I expected. Way more pop than expected also.
Parliament
5/5
There is so much good shit that would not exist without Parliament. Absolutely love this album, it sent me down a mother funkin' rabbit hole...
Buena Vista Social Club
4/5
Excellent. Couldn't get enough.
Gary Numan
2/5
Decent but ultimately uninteresting
Tangerine Dream
2/5
Johnny Cash
3/5
This is orders of magnitude better than any kind of country that is released today.
X-Ray Spex
2/5
First it was super annoying Brit pop, then it was somewhat tolerable punk. Not my favorite album so far.
The Specials
3/5
Seems like they had a real tough time deciding what kind of band they wanted to be on any given song.
Def Leppard
4/5
Can't help loving this one, I have since it came out.
John Grant
2/5
Too slow and uninteresting for my tastes.
Can
2/5
It was weird.
Common
3/5
Good album. I hear a lot of good about common, expected better.
Shuggie Otis
4/5
I liked it! Can't believe this was the first I ever heard of Shuggie Otis
Ray Charles
4/5
Really quite nice. No wonder he's so famous.
Coldplay
2/5
Not my jam. Here it is, I made it 2026 without listening to coldplay. Probably should have kept that streak going.
Black Sabbath
3/5
Not as good as earlier efforts, but still pretty awesome.
Curtis Mayfield
4/5
Excellent! Gonna go watch the movie now
Daft Punk
3/5
Very good!
The Charlatans
3/5
Beastie Boys
5/5
Not as good as earlier efforts, but still pretty awesome.

3/5
Tina Turner
3/5
Classic 80s andI I can dig it.
Jorge Ben Jor
3/5
Interesting and fun, will definitely revisit.
Jamiroquai
4/5
I love me some Jamiroquai.
Weather Report
3/5
I enjoyed what I heard, but fell asleep to it. Will give it another go.
Hole
2/5
Well, I lived through this. I didn't like it then, and I don't like it now.
That said, always mad respect to Courtney Love for calling out Harvey Weinstein before it was cool, so to speak.
Yes
3/5
This was a good album with a fantastic opening track.
Kings of Leon
2/5
They get better
Madonna
2/5
There are a few songs I love, and her voice is great, but later efforts are so much better.
CHVRCHES
2/5
Not my bag. My wife liked it though.
The Allman Brothers Band
5/5
Brilliant
Prefab Sprout
1/5
The first song was kinda cool, but I didn't finish the album.
Blur
2/5
I did not enjoy this nearly as much as I expected to.
Jack White
3/5
Michael Jackson
4/5
Damn good
Aretha Franklin
3/5
Johnny Cash
3/5
Beatles
3/5
You know, I've never been into the Beatles much. All the same, I found myself enjoying it.
The Human League
3/5
Pretty decent 80s jams
Steve Winwood
3/5
Not bad! A few times I thought I was listening to Phil Collins or Genesis.
Taylor Swift
3/5
This is one talented lady. Not my style, and in fact, this was the first and only time I have ever listened to a Taylor Swift album, or even deliberately listened just a song.
That said, I get it. I don't need to like it to see (hear?) the appeal. And then to re-record her entire catalog, that whole story was pretty wild. She's a boss. I'm no Swiftie, but she's got my respect all the same.
Ministry
5/5
Loved it since it came out.
Dexys Midnight Runners
2/5
I started out enjoying this, but by the end of it, I felt it faded into the background.
White Denim
3/5
Never heard of them, enjoyed the album. I do wish they would have chosen a style but still, pretty good.
Supergrass
3/5
Pretty decent.
Incubus
3/5
Ok album with some really great moments.
Fleetwood Mac
3/5
Decent, but I feel like I was wanting something more.
Thelonious Monk
4/5
Damn, that was smooth.
Billy Joel
3/5
I knew more of it than I expected. Great stuff.
Ryan Adams
1/5
I got maybe 2 songs in. Couldn't do it, not a fan a modern country.
Lambchop
2/5
Soft. Easy going. Couldn't get into it.
The Velvet Underground
2/5
Todd Rundgren
3/5
Pretty decent, I'll listen to it again
Simon & Garfunkel
3/5
Very pleasant
The Band
3/5
Quite enjoyable.
Eminem
4/5
Beatles
4/5
All my life I've said I'm not much of a Beatles fan. Yet here I was, singing along to damn near every track. Great album.
Hugh Masekela
4/5
I really liked this one, I will enjoy it for a long time to come.
Funkadelic
4/5
Love it, I dig the funk for sure.
1/5
Not for me.
3/5
Better than bjork.
The Smiths
2/5
Not as 80's sounding as I expected, but I didn't love it.
Bad Brains
3/5
Better than I remembered it. Caught myself bobbing my head and grinning a few times.
Metallica
1/5
I don't like the sound. I don't like the songwriting. I don't like the production overall. Awful album from one of my favorite bands. Far as I'm concerned, ...and Justice For All is where Metallica ended.
Ice Cube
3/5
He was better with nwa, also with da lynch mob. Not bad, nott great.
Paul McCartney and Wings
4/5
Great album, once again it was a blast realizing how many Paul McCartney songs I knew
David Bowie
2/5
Only ok
Koffi Olomide
3/5

3/5

Nick Drake
2/5
Super soft, but not really my style.
The Cure
4/5
B.B. King
4/5
Loved it
Neil Young
2/5
I'm just not a Neil Young fan. This was super soft and not my bag, baby.

4/5
Talking Heads
3/5

3/5
The Rolling Stones
4/5
You can't always get what you want, but if you try, sometimes you get what you need
Stevie Wonder
3/5
3/5
Better than I expected! I wished I knew the words so I could sing along a couple times
Pet Shop Boys
3/5
Better than I expected! I wished I knew the words so I could sing along a couple times
My Bloody Valentine
1/5
Honey crap, I actually cannot believe how grating this album was. I skipped most tracks and couldn't finish it, this was terrible.
The Black Keys
4/5
Loved it. Great album.
Bruce Springsteen
2/5
This wasn't as awesome as I'd hoped, I expected a lot more energy but found myself pretty bored.
Supertramp
3/5
Sigur Rós
3/5
I it's not an album I would listen to at just any time of the day, but when you need some peace, just something nice in the background, this really does it.
The Smashing Pumpkins
4/5
I didn't like it when it was brand new back in the day, and I thought I still didn't. Until I realized that I was singing along with damn near every song on the album. This one's solid.
Rahul Dev Burman
2/5
Some of it was very cool. Some of it was quite unusual. Still not quite sure what I thought of it.
Fela Kuti
4/5
John Martyn
3/5
Iron Maiden
3/5
I love iron maiden, so yeah I'm biased. All the same, not my favorite album of theirs.
The Libertines
3/5
I've never been into punk generally, but I'm learning about it. This was a pretty decent album, and I say that as someone still in the "I don't like punk" camp. Found myself bobbing my head a few times.
Spiritualized
2/5
What an unbelievably boring album. I actually forgot it was still on, and that's while listening to it in the car
Megadeth
4/5
Dr. Dre
4/5
Neneh Cherry
3/5
Pretty good lyrically, pretty forgettable musically
The Chemical Brothers
2/5
I listened to it, but really don't remember much of it, I guess this was a pretty forgettable album for me.

Beatles
3/5
Venom
3/5
Willie Nelson
3/5
Charles Mingus
4/5
Siouxsie And The Banshees
3/5
Want sure I liked it, but I couldn't stop listening either. Pretty alright.
The Beau Brummels
4/5
This was excellent, I really enjoyed it. I love discovering little gems like this, that's why I do this whole thing.
Nightmares On Wax
3/5
The Killers
4/5
Really good. Once again I didn't even realize half these songs were The Killers until hearing them here. Love it.
Rush
5/5
Holy shit. I for real cannot believe I never gave these guys an honest chance. I was today years old when I discovered the glory of YYZ (8/20/2024). If you read any of my other reviews, it should be pretty obvious I'm a giant old metal head. And yet... Seriously, this was so good I listened to it a second time straight away, still bummed when it was over. Rush is unbelievable.
Brian Eno
2/5
Every time I started to like something on this album, something was going on that made me want to turn it off. Weird sounds, crazy nasally vocals, just weird.
The Zutons
3/5
I've never heard of the zutons, but I liked it, real solid album.
Steely Dan
4/5
I quite enjoyed this one. It was really good, but short.
Einstürzende Neubauten
1/5
I'm not sure what about this qualifies as "must hear before I die." I'm pretty sure this is " must hear as you're checked into hell." Gotta give it to them though, I never really believed anything would make me want to go back and add a star for Bjork. Holy fucking shit this album is terrible.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
4/5
Pink Floyd
5/5
The bias is real, this is easily one of my top five favorite bands. Love this album passionately.

Country music is so violent! But for real, I loved this album.
Deep Purple
3/5
Great album. I giggled a lot thinking of my dad listening to this, he wouldn't have liked the screaming.
Tim Buckley
2/5
Nice but too slow for me
Depeche Mode
3/5
Somehow, I have had a couple reviews doubled up; this was one. I like Depeche Mode, I like this album.

Great album, loved it!
MC Solaar

The White Stripes
3/5

Steely Dan
3/5
Need more funk!
Queen
4/5
New York Dolls

Kraftwerk
3/5
Pretty good overall, I quite liked it.
