Violator by Depeche Mode
Apr 06 2023

Overall, did not enjoy this album. Riffs and melodies were repetitive. I did like Clean because it felt authentically moody and brooding.

Young Americans by David Bowie
Apr 07 2023

Not for me. Across the universe cover is horrible.

Low by David Bowie
Apr 10 2023

Absolutely unenjoyable to listen to. Feels like a collection of incomplete thought starters as opposed to a cohesive album. Some of the atmospheric tracks at the end of the album start to feel progressive and interesting but go nowhere.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Apr 11 2023

Amazing album. Incredible that it is live and improvised. The artist can be heard reacting to his own playing (humming, singing, shouting). Perfect album to work to or to relax.

Music From Big Pink by The Band
Apr 12 2023

Vocal delivery made this one challenging to listen to in modern times. Great 60s-era album.

Horses by Patti Smith
Apr 13 2023

Progressive, great drum production, too avant garde for me.

Lust For Life by Iggy Pop
Apr 14 2023

Not a fan. Songs are very basic and repetitive.

My Generation by The Who
Apr 17 2023

Cannot imagine how progressive this would have sounded upon initial release. Easy to hear how it’s influenced modern musicians.

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
Apr 18 2023

Leonard Cohen is not my thing in the slightest.

Sincere by Mj Cole
Apr 20 2023

Boring, straightforward electronic pop songs. The vocals and vocal samples are particularly dated. Perhaps would have been exciting upon release but challenging to listen to decades later.
