American IV: The Man Comes Around

Johnny Cash

4/5

This album is a beautiful mix of covers and original songs. I love elegiac feeling I get from this album. “Hurt” is probably the best cover of all time.

Garbage

3/5

Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables

Dead Kennedys

4/5

Hated the start and loved the rest. The lyrics and instrumentation are really good I just am not a fan of the vocal delivery. If I could I would give it a 3.5.

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

4/5

Great classic rock and roll album. Creedence Clearwater Revival has such a recognizable sound. There is not a bad track on this album. My only complaint and what is keeping it from a perfect score is it’s runtime, it is too short.

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5

Good but not their best album. I love the second half of it and Mrs. Robinson is so good!

Raw Power

The Stooges

3/5

It was good but feels kind of basic know. I would give it a 3.5 out of 5 if I could.

Wild Wood

Paul Weller

2/5

The song “Wild Wood” is great but the album is terrible. It is the most boring uninspired album I have ever listened to. It is full of boring dad rock. The only reason this is not a one star is the song “Wild Wood” and the song “Holy Man”.

Me Against The World

2Pac

4/5

Great storytelling and overall good album.

Franz Ferdinand

4/5

This is an example of great art rock. I throughly enjoyed every song on the album. My favorites were “Take Me Out” and “Michael”.

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Good rock album. I was listening to this at the perfect time on the road. My favorite song was “Moonlight Mile”.

Every Good Boy Deserves Fudge

Mudhoney

4/5

Great grunge/punk album. I loved most of the songs on the album. It was so close to a 5/5 but it is not perfect so I can’t give it a 5/5. My favorite song was “Something so Clear”.

Haut de gamme / Koweït, rive gauche

Koffi Olomide

3/5

Fun album but this type of music is just not for me.

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo

Devo

3/5

Liked it at first but then got tired of it towards the end.

Step In The Arena

Gang Starr

4/5

Great hip hop album with jazzy beats and solid rapping.

Africa Brasil

Jorge Ben Jor

4/5

Very happy and fun album with a lot of good funk.

The Slider

T. Rex

3/5

It is ok a guess. I prefer David Bowie.

Let's Stay Together

Al Green

4/5

Sometimes some good soul music can just feel so good. I loved every song on this album but I wish it went on longer.

The La's

3/5

I expected more from the band that made “There She Goes”, but most of the album was bland. None of the album was bad but none of it was that interesting except “There She Goes”.

Darkness on the Edge of Town

Bruce Springsteen

4/5

Good album, I liked the ballads on it and surprisingly I like Springsteen’s voice on the album.

When I Was Born For The 7th Time

Cornershop

2/5

Weird and nothing outstanding.

Sound Affects

The Jam

3/5

The album is not bad, it is just nothing extraordinary. After a while all the songs sounded the same to me.

Bluesbreakers

John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers

2/5

I love blues and Eric Clapton but this is so boring and soulless. It feels like eating a steak without any seasoning.

Young Americans

David Bowie

4/5

Not my favorite from Bowie but it is a great reinvention of soul and my favorite song on the album was “Fame”.

Melodrama

Lorde

4/5

Good album, I mostly don’t listen to music like this so it was a nice refresher. I liked almost all of the songs and the vocals were delivered perfectly. 4/5

Innervisions

Stevie Wonder

5/5

Perfect album, a great mix of soul and funk. Every song is wonderful. This might be the second best Stevie Wonder album just behind “Songs In The Key Of Life”.

1984

Van Halen

4/5

Good album feels a little weird now because it is so 80s. It is hard to call this metal but I guess it is close enough.

Scott 2

Scott Walker

3/5

This album was ok but it felt so weird. I just got a strange feeling from this album.

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

A classic, maybe not his best but I love it still
