My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello
May 15 2023

Decent album, I'm just not a fan of Costello's voice

May 17 2023

I feel like I have to be in a specific mood for this album, but when I am it's a fantastic album. Regardless of my mood it's still fantastic.

May 22 2023

Don't kill me, but I seem to be a bigger Public Enemy fan. That being said, still a great album.

Brothers by The Black Keys
May 26 2023

Solid summer album

The Stooges by The Stooges
May 29 2023

Good sound overall, you can tell it stood out for its time but just didn't hit the same levels as other rock bands of the time.

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Jun 05 2023

Very wholistic sound throughout, I liked the instrumental songs on the album, and, although it was wholistic, I was a bigger fan of the first half of the album.

Jun 09 2023

Not a bad song on this album, I like that this album takes a deeper dive into 2Pac's life like in Me Against the World and Desr Mama.

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Jun 13 2023

Don't really understand the appeal to this album, not a fan

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Jun 20 2023

One of the greatest pop albums of all time, what more can I say?

The United States Of America by The United States Of America
Jun 21 2023

A couple of the songs on the B side are okay, but other artists and other albums that do the same style just do it better than whatever they're doing here.

Peter Gabriel 3 by Peter Gabriel
Jun 22 2023

I like the post-Genesis sound of this album and the production is really good, but nothing stands out. I like the album as a whole but it's hard to push it up to four stars.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Jun 26 2023

Great album, I liked the live aspect to the whole thing, just not my favorite sound.

Is This It by The Strokes
Jun 27 2023

I'm not a huge fan of 2000's music, but this album is very well put together.

Sail Away by Randy Newman
Jun 28 2023

Wasn't sure how I was going to feel about a Randy Newman album, but I was pleasantly surprised. Good solid sound and nothing that's disappointing.

Morrison Hotel by The Doors
Jun 29 2023

I enjoyed a decent bit of the songs on this album, makes me interested in possibly listening to more of The Doors in the future.

Nixon by Lambchop
Jun 30 2023

I enjoyed the overall sound of the album, but the lead singer kills the whole thing for me.

All Directions by The Temptations
Jul 03 2023

This album was really great, I don't think there was a song that felt out of place in this album.

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz
Jul 05 2023

I don't know that much about jazz so it's harder to gage, but in general it was alright

Arc Of A Diver by Steve Winwood
Jul 06 2023

I love Winwood's use of the synthesizer

Low by David Bowie
Jul 11 2023

A quieter album from David Bowie, but still a great one. I liked more of the instrumental side of it.

Eagles by Eagles
Jul 12 2023

Eagles really nailed their sound on their first album, very high four but I'll give it a five for a very solid first album

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jul 18 2023
The Grand Tour by George Jones
Jul 19 2023

Putting aside my hate for country, this was good.

Court And Spark by Joni Mitchell
Aug 11 2023

Contrary to my previous rating on one of Joni Mitchell's albums, I actually really enjoyed this one. Interesting transition to jazz music towards the end.

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Aug 14 2023

Fantastic album, will return for more of their work.

American Beauty by Grateful Dead
Aug 16 2023

Nothing stood out, but not bad by any means. Also not my genre.

Rio by Duran Duran
Aug 18 2023

Love the new wave sound, Duran Duran has a very unique style with this album. Not a bad song on here.

Armed Forces by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Aug 23 2023
Crocodiles by Echo And The Bunnymen
Aug 24 2023

There's nothing super unique here.

Channel Orange by Frank Ocean
Aug 31 2023

I can tell it's a very good album, but it's been overhyped for me. Will listen again with probably a different rating so I'll give it the rating I think it deserves objectively.

Pump by Aerosmith
Sep 01 2023
Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Sep 04 2023
Odessa by Bee Gees
Sep 08 2023

I didn't save a ton of these songs, but the album's constructed very well. It has some interesting songs like The British Opera, it's very unlike what I'm used to with Bee Gees

1999 by Prince
Nov 27 2023

Besides Prince's super loud screaming, the music's awesome

Nov 29 2023

The only downside to this album is that Phil Collins barely sings, otherwise it feels like Peter Gabriel's Genesis mixed with King Crimson which is bad ass.
