Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Sep 16 2023

Like Sam Cooke's *Live at the Harlem Square Club, 1963* with even more saxophone. 15 September 2023

Crime Of The Century by Supertramp
Sep 17 2023

*Bloody Well Right* and *School* were hits for a reason. The rest probably weren't hits also for a reason. 16 September 2023

Tommy by The Who
Sep 18 2023
The Cars by The Cars
Sep 19 2023

*I'm in Touch with Your World* with the wacky sound effects strait out of Dr. Demento.

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Sep 20 2023

*Get It On* is the typically "oh that's who sings that song" song, but I'm really feeling *Monolith.* 19 September 2023

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Sep 21 2023

Mandatory while listening to this album; making pasta from scratch. 20 September 2023

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Sep 25 2023

Some albums, even some great albums, from the 90s sound like they are definitely from the 90s. This is more timeless.

After The Gold Rush by Neil Young
Oct 01 2023

Great singer songwriter essential album, although there's only so much Neil Young I can handle in one sitting.

Honky Tonk Heroes by Waylon Jennings
Oct 02 2023

Outlaw country, what's not to love?

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Oct 03 2023

One of those essential albums; I prefer the standard version released in Buckley's lifetime. His cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah" is the headlining track of course (and likely the canonical version of the song), but "Lover, You Should've Come Over" is my favorite. Undeniably a five star album, but I'll likely rate it a bit lower because it's not the type I reach for often.

Mermaid Avenue by Billy Bragg
Oct 11 2023

The spirit of Woody Guthrie reincarnated as excellent alt-country band. Excellent! 10 Oct 2023

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Oct 12 2023

Just simply one of the best ever. *Wild World* is top ten songs for me, ever. 11 Oct 2023

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Oct 17 2023

Honestly a bit surprised his much I enjoyed this. 16 October 2023

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Oct 26 2023

Perhaps the best example of an artist coming out fully formed. Greatest opening song from debut album ever.
