Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton

Pleasant to listen to but, on the whole, a little bit boring. I really like Dolly Parton's voice but no song really stood out to me here. Really nice cover by the way.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Aug 16 2023

Ambiance robotique. Très bonne vibe de groupe, excellente musique de fond pour s'ambiancer / faire un truc chiant et le rendre moins chiant 1. Awesome mix 3 2. Commence comme Mr Blue Sky finit, ferait une bonne musique de fin d'album, un peu nostalgique sans être déprimant (même plutôt joyeux). 3. Très sympa, assez collectif 4. Sympa 5. Sympa 6. Chill 7. + énergique, on apprécie 8. Piano dramatique, mois fan car très robotique et court 9. Vibe de chanson d'amour, agréable 10. Vraiment bizarre le début 11. Rappels de Mr Blue Sky au début. Joyeux, j'aime 12. Sympa, j'aime beaucoup la partie instrumentale de la fin 13. Mr Blue Sky >>> 14. Excellente surprise, plus doux 15. On dirait littéralement des sons de baleines ou d'aliens mais j'aime bien. Pas du tout de paroles donc ++ 16. Sympa 17. Construction lente mais augmente petit à petit en intensité, très sympa, un peu cyclique et "western" dans certains passage 20 . J'aime particulièrement, court mais efficace, + centré sur un seul des chanteurs (mis en favori)

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
Aug 17 2023

Beaucoup de longs morceaux lives, vraiment pas terrible

Abraxas by Santana
Aug 18 2023

Beaucoup de moments avec uniquement des instruments (+++) Vraiment très cool 1. Début un peu dramatique, en cohérence avec le nom, j'apprécie. Le morceau continue comme ça sans parole donc ++ 2. J'aime bien 3. Morceau le plus écouté, et c'est très clairement justifié, très entraînant 4. Sympa 5. Solo de percussion incroyable absolument auquel s'ajoutent progressivement des instruments et une voix 6. + de chant mais aussi + entraînant, on se laisse emporter par le chanteur 7. Morceau plus calme mais relaxant (playlist travail) 8. Ne pas se fier aux quelques premières secondes, très groovy, j'aime

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Aug 19 2023

Beaucoup trop répétitif, le chanteur ne sait pas chanter, insupportable, je ne peux même pas le finir tant il me fait souffrir 3. Rythme entraînant au départ mais vite répétitif + le chant est catastrophique 4. J'en peux déjà plus, c'est la troisième chanson que j'écoute, faites le taire 7. Un peu spooky mais ce mec ne sait pas chanter

Faust IV by Faust
Aug 26 2023

Disk 1 1. Not my thing 2. Liked it much more, brought a little bit of joy and new instruments that I liked 3. Catchy in the beggining. Big turn around 4:40 4. The hell is that? You can't make me believe that anyone hears that on purpose 5. Definitily not my thing although the instrumental is quite catchy ; almost pleasing in the beginning but ended with just a melt of random sounds. Ends suddenly ?? 6. This one is OK until the end 7. Forgettable Disk 2 1. Slower, chiller, I like it 2. Liked it too, chiller

Led Zeppelin II by Led Zeppelin
Aug 28 2023

Sympathetic album that I listened to while working. Not really my usual jam and I probably won't listen to it ever again but it was nice on the moment. However it then lead me to some really nice songs that I will definitely add to my playlist.

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
Aug 29 2023

First time that I listened to a Cindy Lauder's album. I didn't realise that it was the "Girls just wanna have fun"'s one at first but it only made the listening more pleasurable. Definitely would listen to it again : pleasant singing, catchy rythm, not too long, nice cover.

Calenture by The Triffids
Aug 30 2023

Hadn't heard about this group before but it was a really good surprise!

Boy In Da Corner by Dizzee Rascal
Aug 31 2023

Didn't think that there would be a rap album in there, but why not after all?

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69) by Ministry
Sep 01 2023

Not much of metal fan and this album comforted me in this opinion to be honest. I found it much repetitive and sometimes very boring to listen to, although the musicians for sure are very talented. 1. "N.W.O" has a really catchy opening. It quickly becomes repetitive though. 2. "Just one fix" has the same problem: too repetitive in my opinion. 3. "TV II" is better balanced in my opinion (maybe because it was shorter ?). The interruptions in the mmusic with the singer were really well chosen. 4. "Hero" is funny, catchy, pleasing to hear. 5. "Jesus Built my Hotrod" made me afraid because of its soft opening suddenly becoming really harsh. Became quite repetitive after some time. 6. "Scare crow" is not as repetitive but feels really "OK" souding. It isn't peculiarly resouding in me. 7. "Psalm 69" is really epic souding. Reincorporating the opening in the middle of the song was a good idea to me. 8. "Corrosion" is repetitive AND unpleasant to listen to. 9. "Grace" is a bunch of noise, a constant cacophony, so hard to listen until the end.

So by Peter Gabriel
Nov 16 2023

Quite nice, wouldn't listen to it on a regular basis but could be fun from times to times. I especially liked "Sledgehammer" and the last song, "In your eyes".

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Nov 18 2023
Nov 28 2023

Quite short but very catchy! Loved it from the beginning to the end, even though I especially liked the first four songs. Would definitely listen to it again!

Queens of the Stone Age by Queens Of The Stone Age
Nov 29 2023

What a terribly boring and generic album... While listening to it, it seemed like no song really stand out. This definitely isn't my style. This album however has some qualities, including some very good musicians (especially liked the guitar solo in the sixth song, "The Bronze").

Elastica by Elastica
Nov 30 2023

Very fun album! We can really appreciate all the experience those musicians have here. Rock is not a genre that I peculiarly like usually, but that one is for sure an exception.

Frank by Amy Winehouse

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton

Larks' Tongues In Aspic by King Crimson
Dec 07 2023

I could'nt even finish it. I found it atrocious, not so much because it was bad in itself, probably just because it is not my style.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Dec 08 2023

Really really repetitive. After twelve minutes of Mr. Follow I couldn't bear the rhythm anymore. Zombie was a little bit better (maybe because there was more singing ?) but the rest was overall very boring.

Tommy by The Who
Jul 09 2024
My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello
Jun 07 2026

Quite a fun one ! It was nice to listen to an album I appreciated after a long pause. I absolutely loved the instrumental arangements of most of the songs ! Too bad I didn't like his voice much, which was deceiving. I liked Alison enough to add it to my favorite songs but the rest wasn't really for me. Yet listening to this encouraged me to listen to other of his musics. Veronica was a great discovery. Liked the cover too eventhough it gives me headaches

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Jun 09 2026

Was already a fan of Dire Straits (Brothers in Arms) and this is only to confirm it!
