Debut by Björk
Jun 20 2023

She has a unique voice. Liked the horns in a couple of songs. Would not seek this album out and listen to it again.

Gasoline Alley by Rod Stewart
Jun 21 2023

Happy to see a Rod Stewart album pop up. He was one of my favorite artists growing up. I enjoyed listening to some of these songs from my younger days. Really liked his version of “It’s all over now” and “Country Comfort”

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Jun 22 2023

Enjoyed listening to the album. Have always liked 50-60’s music.

Dog Man Star by Suede
Jun 23 2023

I actually liked this album after listening to it. My first impression was that I wouldn’t like the alternative music description but many of the songs had a David Bowie (who I like) sound and I think the band was influenced by him.

Tonight's The Night by Neil Young
Jun 26 2023

I’m a big fan of Neil Young but, this is not my favorite album or collection of songs from him.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Jun 27 2023

Liked the 2 big hits Breakdown and American Girl but didn’t care much for the rest of the album.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Jun 28 2023

Didn’t really like this album. Seemed that all the songs sounded the same.

xx by The xx
Jun 30 2023
Odessey And Oracle by The Zombies
Jul 03 2023

Didn’t realize who this band was until “Time of the season” which was a big hit for them. Thought they sounded a lot like the Beachboys.

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Jul 04 2023

Album was ok, kind of vanilla. Would not listen to it again.

Let's Stay Together by Al Green
Jul 10 2023

Great album. Let’s stay together is one of my favorite songs. Al Green has such a great voice and does a great job on The Bee Gees song How do you mend a broken heart .

Stephen Stills by Stephen Stills
Jul 13 2023

Ok album. Could hear some early 70s folk and blues influences.

Electric by The Cult
Jul 14 2023

Ok, a little to hard rock for me.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Jul 17 2023

This one brings me back to middle school and early high school where this album was played over and over. I haven’t heard it in a long time. Replayed Aqualung and Cross Eyed Mary twice. I’m sure Jethro Tull was the only rock band to feature a flute! I enjoyed this musical walk down memory lane.

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Jul 18 2023

I liked it even though this is not my favorite type of jazz music.

Close To You by Carpenters
Jul 19 2023

This one brings me back to the early seventies. Huge hits on this album. Karen Carpenter had the most beautiful voice in all of pop music back then. Nice to hear it for nostalgic reasons but wouldn’t seek it out to play on my own.

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
Jul 20 2023

Not really my style, will not be listening to this again.

Dear Science by TV On The Radio
Jul 21 2023

Not the style of music that I like, wouldn’t listen to this album again.

Ill Communication by Beastie Boys
Jul 25 2023

Not really a rap fan but thought a few of these songs were ok. Not surprisingly I liked the instrumentals most.

Marquee Moon by Television
Jul 26 2023

I liked this album. Reminded me of a mix of The Rolling Stones and the Talking Heads.

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Jul 27 2023

Everyone growing up in the 70s knows Black Sabbath. War Pigs and Ironman were Hugh hits and staples at most high school parties. Good to reminisce while listening to this album.

Orbital 2 by Orbital
Jul 28 2023

Not into techno music so this is a no for me.

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Jul 31 2023

Really enjoyed listening to this album. Seems that the world hasn't changed much since Marvin was singing about "What's going on"

Enjoyed this live album. Was too young to remember the Vietnam War and the protests but my older sisters were teenagers and I remember them listening to Bob Dylan.

Youth And Young Manhood by Kings of Leon
Aug 04 2023

Didn't really like this album. Not my favorite kind of music.

Liquid Swords by GZA
Aug 07 2023

I actually liked this album even though Rap is not my favorite type of music.

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Aug 08 2023

A couple of monster hits that were played over and over on MTV in the early days. Enjoyed listening to to this album.

Electric Prunes by The Electric Prunes
Aug 09 2023

Ok album, sounds like most of the late 60s music.

Blur by Blur
Aug 10 2023

Didn’t enjoy this album.

Aug 11 2023

Not what I was expecting when I saw the 1969 date. Much more punk /hard rock. Still, not too bad, but not my favorite.

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Aug 15 2023

Great album, great band, great front man. Many believe the Rolling Stones to be the greatest rock band of all time. Hard to argue with that, their success and longevity have to put them up there.

Aug 16 2023

Definitely reminded me of the 80s. Poison Arrow was a big hit. Nice stroll down memory lane but not going to seek out this album.

L'Eau Rouge by The Young Gods
Aug 17 2023

Nope, not my style.

So by Peter Gabriel
Aug 21 2023

Huge hits off this album. Sledgehammer had big success and got lots of airplay on MTV.

Kid A by Radiohead
Aug 22 2023

Not my style of music.

Guero by Beck
Aug 24 2023

It was ok, wouldn’t listen to it again.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Aug 29 2023

I liked this album, singer sounded a little like Bob Dylan.

The Slider by T. Rex
Aug 31 2023

Not my style, sounds a little like David Bowie.

Survivor by Destiny's Child
Sep 06 2023

Good album, couple of big hits for Destiny's Child from the early 2000's.

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
Sep 07 2023

Not a huge Jazz fan but I liked this album.

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Sep 08 2023

Ok album, wouldn’t listen to it again

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Sep 11 2023

I really liked this album. Fast Car was a big hit, and she was very popular in the late 80s.

21 by Adele
Sep 25 2023
Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Sep 29 2023

liked this album a lot.
