Thriller

Michael Jackson

5/5

Makes sense why its the greatest selling album (studio or otherwise) of all-time. Never listened to it front to back like that. So clean, such tight production. Amazed really by how many hits are on one album.

If You Can Believe Your Eyes & Ears

The Mamas & The Papas

3/5

Feels like a Beatles album in a lot of ways. Nice mixing and vocals but I’m just not crazy about it.

Sound of Silver

LCD Soundsystem

4/5

Felt like I was transported back to 2007. awesome album.

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

2/5

Ellington at Newport

Duke Ellington

3/5

Classic great jazz. But to be honest there were some challenging gnawing points that I had trouble with. As much as I think I like jazz, my palette is a bit unrefined.

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

3/5

Man. I thought I liked the smiths. I like a few songs a lot but realized I don’t love them top to bottom. Some really gnawing tracks I just couldn’t get behind truthfully.

Kid A

Radiohead

4/5

Atmospheric and interesting - like being at MoMA but through your ears. Maybe because I was working while listening to it but it is just ya know an album. I understand its significance but can't say I just absolutely loved it. I've always wanted to sit down and listen.... maybe I need to dedicate everything to intently listen. But casually this is just 4 stars (more like 3.5). Still a lot of interesting ideas.

The Bends

Radiohead

4/5

great peek into peak 90s rock

Elephant

The White Stripes

4/5

First half was slow (with some notable exceptions) but second half rocked

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

2/5

Certified rock opera. Unfortunately just not my taste. Aware of how impressive it was, just not for me.

Autobahn

Kraftwerk

2/5

Just not my vibe. But last track kinda hits

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

4/5

Vibe!

Station To Station

David Bowie

4/5

Funky hits... not all memorable though

Lazer Guided Melodies

Spiritualized

3/5

I mean. Do I wanna go back and listen to it? Not really. Barely got excited to listen to any of it. There were some points where it was more enjoyable noise rock than normal. See how it breaks the mold of traditional rock. But I’m not jumping to listen to it again

John Barleycorn Must Die

Traffic

4/5

Honestly very good album. Knew nothing of these guys. Want to listen to it more. For 1970 felt like they were ahead of their time.

Vulnicura

Björk

4/5

Whoa do I like Bjork? Kind of! Yes!

Abraxas

Santana

4/5

The Sounds Of India
