Let's Stay Together

Al Green

4/5

solid 4.3 out of 5. some of the tracks seem to meld, but it starts off and finishes strong, hitting a couple high notes on its way there.

Hybrid Theory

Linkin Park

3/5

i'm not the biggest nu-metal fan, so this album wasn't something i would choose for myself, but I can see the appeal it held in the 2000s. some of the tracks seemed to blend together for me, but my personal favorite was "cure for the itch."

Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

5/5

no words are needed. amazing album. full of funky, fresh synthy jazz.

Sound of Silver

LCD Soundsystem

5/5

indie electronica? yes please

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

A Hard Day's Night

Beatles

4/5

early beatles is always a fun time. maybe not a sophisticated time, but definitely a fun one.

Astral Weeks

Van Morrison

4/5

interesting use of non-traditional instruments in the album. although, truth be told, his voice seems out of place more than i'd like to admit.

Either Or

Elliott Smith

3/5

solid album. ideal for rainy days or coffee shops in oregon.

Histoire De Melody Nelson

Serge Gainsbourg

4/5

i love the music. really don't vibe with the concept part of the "concept album."

Document

R.E.M.

5/5

i thought the album only had one bop, but i was proved wrong

Devotional Songs

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan

3/5

Would I have listened to this on my own? No. Did I enjoy listening to Sufi devotional music? Yes. Would I listen to it again? Probably not, but never say never.

Protection

Massive Attack

5/5

Loved the album, but the last track really sucks you out of the experience. Still, would listen to again.

Ágætis Byrjun

Sigur Rós

5/5

Faith

George Michael

5/5

I expected nothing less than the best from pne of the biggest pop stars of all time.

We're Only In It For The Money

The Mothers Of Invention

2/5

This album tried to be satirical and avant-garde, and for me, it missed both. Sure, a couple of the lyrics were pithy, and there were some head-nodding melodies. But I think it became experimental for the sake of being experimental towards the end of the album.

Ocean Rain

Echo And The Bunnymen

4/5

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

5/5

a staple of the folk rock scene. lovely album from start to finish.

Traffic

4/5

honky-tonk beatlesque soft-rock? yes please

Appetite For Destruction

Guns N' Roses

4/5

if I hear "paradise city" one more time... but in all seriousness, I think the overplayedness of three of the tracks really took me out of it because I'd heard them all the time, especially growing up with my dad in charge of the AUX. other than that, "my Michelle" is a bop, and slash is a musical genius.

Power In Numbers

Jurassic 5

5/5

funky fresh.

Le Tigre

4/5

kathleen hanna strikes again

Sweetheart Of The Rodeo

The Byrds

3/5

was this influential for country-rock? absolutely. did I want to listen to a man talk about choosing the Christian life for nearly three minutes? no.

Time Out Of Mind
