It sounded nice. I'm not really a big fan of U2, but I went to Joshua Tree last year, and loved it there, so I tried to imagine this album accompanying the soundtrack to a pleasant drive through the desert. I've heard a few of the tracks before, so it had some recognition. I'm not sure I'd necessarily go back and want to listen to it a second time, but I certainly understand the appeal.

The Next Day by David Bowie
Oct 09 2023

Felt and sounded like a Bowie album should & does. I enjoyed it and bopped along.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Oct 10 2023

They tried to get me to listen to my 3rd album out of 1001, and I said, Yes, Yes, Yes. It was a jam.

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
Oct 11 2023

Jazzy! I enjoyed her improvisation of the lyrics. Music was nice too.

Back In Black by AC/DC
Oct 12 2023

Dad Rock. Music and instrumentals are good. The singer is a bit grating, but I already knew. FLYYYYY ON A WALL. Different album, but I had that on tape. My brother must've bought it. Anyway, 3/5.

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

This was Friday's, not Monday's (10/16/23) - so I'm a day behind. It was nice. Do Ya Like, Jazz?! The intro reminded me of the opening to... "Ladies and Gentlemen. It's the Eric Andre Show!" YEEEEAAAAHHHHHHH

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino
Oct 18 2023

Was he part of the Colgate Comedy Hour? What happened to the old lady's rooster? What a shame. 2/5, not really for me. It's good old timey big band jazz I guess? Didn't really do much for me.

Close To You by Carpenters
Nov 08 2023

I didn't know this was where 'Why Do Birds Suddenly Appear' is from. Neat

Sister by Sonic Youth
Nov 09 2023

I bet Kim Gordon sings in that way that she always does. It's breathy. Gets real breathy. Repeat the cadence. Same cadence. But go faster. Repeat it faster. Say it faster, say it over! Oh yeah, and let's maybe have like an extra 15 seconds of feedback at the end of our songs. That's a good idea and doesn't waste anyone's time.

At Fillmore East by The Allman Brothers Band
Nov 15 2023

I mostly listened to it I swear. I liked it. Made me think of Hendrix. Hendricks?

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths
Nov 17 2023

IF A TEN TON BUS CRASHES INTO US Meat is murder and so was that album nah jk fam Morissey is cool

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Nov 20 2023

oh no *cracks open Monster Energy* Some of the music and melodies aren't bad. Even the singer dude that killed himself isn't a bad vocalist. But dear god, the writing... these lyrics. TERRIBLE HAHA I like track 11. 2/5

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Nov 21 2023

It's a voodoo album. What's not to love? 4/5

The Doors by The Doors
Nov 23 2023

Couldn't break on through to the 5-star side

2112 by Rush
Dec 04 2023

Closest to a 5/5 yet

Blood On The Tracks by Bob Dylan
Dec 05 2023

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Dec 11 2023

It WOULD be nice

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Dec 12 2023

This dude is great. Really pretty album.

Solid Air by John Martyn
Dec 13 2023

It was nice, not entirely my thing, but nice. 3.5/5 but on this site it's a 3/5, oh well.

Dec 14 2023

Why are these nerds so horny? Way too much crappy singing, moaning, synth, and horns. I don't get it.
