I loved it. I was sucked in from the first song. It was like a good movie, I couldn’t wait to hear what came next.

British Steel

Judas Priest

5/5

This album rocks! The bonus album with the live version of the album is also excellent! My top songs are Grinder, Living After Midnight and Metal Gods.

Tracy Chapman

5/5

Beautiful voice and a beautiful album. There are some very haunting songs like Behind the Wall. I love the a capella. Fast Car is a great song, of course.

The Cars

4/5

Upbeat and fun album.

The Slim Shady LP

Eminem

4/5

Eminem good 👍

Black Sabbath

3/5

Not crazy about this one, but I’ve never been an Ozzy fan. I always felt like his music could be better. With that being said, I would listen to it again, under the right circumstances.

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

3/5

Some good ones, but not my favorite album from them.

The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

4/5

The Stooges

2/5

There is such a thing as being too high to make good music. What the hell is We Will Fall and how does that pointless garbage make it on an album? I expected much more emotion to come through on this album but it was mostly indifference. I mean, how are you in a studio, chanting ran ji ran etc, over and over and think somebody needs to hear this for 10 minutes? No Fun at least picked it up for a decent melody and riff. Not enough to save this so-called punk snoozefest.

Modern Kosmology

Jane Weaver

3/5

not sure of the significance of this album. Not my style of music, but it was catchy and I kind of liked it. I could see her putting on a good live show.

Tapestry

Carole King

4/5

A lovely album. She has a great, soulful voice.

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

5/5

Excellent album. Night swimming is a beautiful song among several other beautiful songs.

Raising Hell

Run-D.M.C.

5/5

You be Illin’ is incredible. Hit it Run, Raising Hell and Peter Piper, he’ll this whole album is dope.

Made In Japan

Deep Purple

3/5

Overall, it was good, namely because the lead singer has some serious pipes. Every time he screamed at me, I feel like it snapped me out of a daze induced by a 5+ minute jam session. There’s like a 7 minute jazz drum solo on one of the songs. At first, I thought it was pretty cool, then it just wouldn’t stop. 10 & 20 minute songs are not uncommon and it felt like an eternity getting through the album. It absolutely had its high points, though.

American Beauty

Grateful Dead

4/5

This is a really good album. I never really gave this band a chance and I’m glad I did. I love their use of harmony.

Rio

Cool album. New Town caught my ear with the arrangement.

Excellent acoustic guitar work. Very thoughtful lyrics. Needle of Death was a very sad song. Good album.
