Low

David Bowie

4/5

Not one of his best, but still has some great tracks.

Strange Cargo III

William Orbit

3/5

I got through all but the last two songs. It brought back many memories of the early 90's. It was great to rehash the memories, but the songs really didn't do it for me.

Close To You

Carpenters

3/5

It's not my style of music, but the last song on the album has a lot of potential. I felt like I should have been singing this at church mass.

Justified

Justin Timberlake

1/5

I couldn't do it. I got through 2.5 songs and had to stop. I'm not sure how this "artist" sold that many albums?

Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo

Devo

5/5

Songs For Swingin' Lovers!

Frank Sinatra

5/5

Every songs a hit. His voice never gets old. This man will always be around.

The Dark Side Of The Moon

Pink Floyd

5/5

It may not be in my top 5 of best Pink Floyd albums, but the groove and feel of this epic album is an emotional rollercoaster of sounds and feelings. Everyone should have to listen to this album at least once.

Common

3/5

Decent album. The N word was used way too much for my liking. One of two songs stopped out for me.

Woodface

Crowded House

2/5

It's not what I remembered? It has some catchy well designed songs, but lyrically it falls short. It has catchy lyrics and songs but has a stagnant life about it.

Fisherman's Blues

The Waterboys

5/5

This album is one of the reasons people drink. It's a fun-filled exploration of hanging with your friends at a bar, living your live to the fullest, and singing at the top of your lungs. I forgot how good this album is.

Soul Mining

The The

5/5

Soul Mining should be in everyone's collection. This post punk album shines with catchy beats, strong lyrics, and head bobbing melodies.

Red Headed Stranger

Willie Nelson

4/5

I can't say that I'm a country fan, but I can say I'm a Willie Nelson fan. This old Country sound is a time capsule of great music.

Walking Wounded

Everything But The Girl

2/5

I feel like this is the equivalent of AC DC or CCR. All the songs sound identical. The one exception is she has a great voice. I wouldn't mind hearing a song on the radio, but not a whole album.

Vincebus Eruptum

Blue Cheer

4/5

Better album than I thought it would be. The guitaring is strong and it has a great best throughout. It's been added to my usual play list.

Dig Your Own Hole

The Chemical Brothers

5/5

A Fantastic debut album with some surprise artists. I need to listen to this album more.

Selected Ambient Works 85-92

Aphex Twin

2/5

Not my favorite ambient music. Most of it sounded like they didn't know how to end the song. Aphex twins are better with there heavier sound.

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

2/5

I was left wanting more.

Raw Like Sushi

Neneh Cherry

2/5

Headquarters

The Monkees

3/5

It's not their best album, but they have so e jams on there. Makes me miss the TV show.

In Utero

Nirvana

3/5

Lyrically a better album then their other ones. I find musically, it lacks what their first two albums had.

Dookie

Green Day

3/5

Peace Sells...But Who's Buying

Megadeth

2/5

Wasn't a fan of the album. Mainly, it wasn't my taste in music. The drumming was fantastic and everything fit together well. The lyrics and voice of the singer were a little underwhelming.

Mr. Tambourine Man

The Byrds

3/5

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

4/5

All the best songs are the ones that weren't played on the radio. Great sound and produced very well. Almost to the point where it feels a little more overproduced.

Urban Hymns

The Verve

5/5

This will always be one of my favorite albums of the 90's. It may not be their best album, but the songs are lyrically strong, Ashcroft's voice shines throughout the album.

Emergency On Planet Earth

Jamiroquai

5/5

Fantastic album full of dancey, funky, jazz influenced sounds. Songs that get into your head and stay there. This album could change your mood from depressed to energetically happy.

Nick Of Time

Bonnie Raitt

4/5

Double Nickels On The Dime

Minutemen

2/5

I appreciate the style that they were trying to do. Acoustic punk is hard to accomplish. Some songs stood out, but the album as a whole fell short.

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

David Bowie

5/5

This is the best Bowie album by far. It's energizing to listen to. Each song gets better and better with each listen.

Trout Mask Replica

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band

3/5

What if frank Zappa, ween's pure guava, and Tom waits had a baby...they would have captain beef heart's trout mask replica. It was really hard to get through and I don't think that I will ever understand it. I do appreciate then living on the edge of the music spectrum, but it falls short on what I conceive music to be. I also love Ween and Tom Waits...but I hear too much Zappa to enjoy what they're trying to accomplish.

Jazz Samba

Stan Getz

3/5

Go Girl Crazy

The Dictators

2/5

Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins

5/5

A more polished version of their first album. Songs are strong and hold their value compared to today's style of music.

The White Album

Beatles

5/5

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

PJ Harvey

5/5

An album that I didn't give credit to when it first came out. Lyrically strong, filled with emotion. The album doesn't feel overproduced or rushed.

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Animal Collective

2/5

A band that I've always wanted to listen to, but never got around to it. Now I know why I waited so long. Almost all the songs sound like they start and end before anything happens. I would say the middle, but the middle usually has a chorus. I don't think that really existed in any of the songs? The band has potential...maybe, it's the album that was chosen for me. I might try another album, but it would have to be when there's nothing left to listen too.

A Night At The Opera

Queen

3/5

Exodus

Bob Marley & The Wailers

5/5

All That You Can't Leave Behind

2/5

Phrenology

The Roots

4/5

Tubular Bells
