Live / Dead by Grateful Dead

One of their weaker albums ..

Jun 17 2023

Too much effects and too little substance. Was groundbreaking at the time, but it sounds quite a bit outdated, now.

Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Jun 20 2023

Jazz legend Dave Brubeck and his quartet - nothing surprising, but always great to listen to.

Dookie by Green Day
Jun 21 2023

Too much punk for my taste, but some good pieces and some great lyrics. Too bad it is drowned out too often by guitar battling and hard drumming.

Different Class by Pulp
Jun 22 2023

Some good pieces but all in all just an average album.

A Wizard, A True Star by Todd Rundgren
Jun 23 2023

One hit wonder releases LP ... without the hit single.

After The Gold Rush by Neil Young
Jun 24 2023

Classic album of a legend, before he tried to pull off some heavy metal, punk stunts in his later career... Folk rock at its best!

Court And Spark by Joni Mitchell
Jun 30 2023

Classic album. Has some great tracks that I had not listened to in years. Great to listen to a great voice and excellent lyrics!

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jul 01 2023

Another legendary album - cool!

Live / Dead by Grateful Dead
Jul 02 2023

One of their weaker albums ..

Miriam Makeba by Miriam Makeba
Jul 03 2023

Ok album - great singer. A little too dreary for my taste.

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Jul 04 2023

So so album of some of their lesser known songs

Elephant Mountain by The Youngbloods
Jul 05 2023

Melodic rock - some songs are a little country too. Nice album

Tres Hombres by ZZ Top
Jul 07 2023

Classic album from their heydays - oldies, but still fun listening to.

The Hour Of Bewilderbeast by Badly Drawn Boy
Jul 13 2023

Pretty nice album ... Except for few experimental tunes, several excellent songs of this brilliant musician I did not know before

Ace of Spades by Motörhead
Jul 16 2023

Some good hard rock, but hard to listen to an entire album. Lots of similarities between the songs and too little effort to make it unique. Just catering to a very narrow audience...

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
Jul 18 2023

Helps when you already like the band as the album seems to dwell a little too long on guitar solos and wanna be Santana sequences ... Nice take on Stormy Monday, but too drawn out as is an extended version of "In Memory of Elizabeth Reed" and a 23-minute long version of the "Whipping Post", which seems to also not connect much with the audience.
