Not my kind of sound at all. Tried to listen to the whole thing but made it 3 songs in before I quit. Appreciate the singers different style and sound, but did not sound good to my ears.

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

All Ratings

Graceland

Paul Simon

3/5

Not my type of vibe. Reminds me of Toto, whoever came first I’m not sure. Might have revealed my young age with that statement.

Franz Ferdinand

3/5

Not bad, probably won’t listen to this album ever again though. Every song just seems like a different rendition of the hit song on the album.

Harvest

Neil Young

1/5

Tea for the Tillerman

Cat Stevens

5/5

Fleetwood Mac/eric Clapton type vibes. Loved this album. Will listen to this artist again

Vol. 4

Black Sabbath

4/5

Actually thought this album was good. Not typically a Black Sabbath fan because I’ve heard all their popular songs from “paranoid” played way too much.

The Clash

3/5

Never been into punk. Wasn’t bad but also wasn’t good.

Peter Gabriel

2/5

Not my vibe at all for an album. Won’t ever listen to again.

James Brown Live At The Apollo

James Brown

5/5

Don’t usually listen to this genre or era of music but thought it was fantastic. Dudes voice wails!!

The Bends

Radiohead

3/5

Didn’t love the whole album, but loved about half the songs. Very melancholy as usual for Radiohead, but great in its own right

Are You Experienced

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

Hendrix is a fantastic guitarist of course. Thought the album was okay, but Jimi’s playing skills gave it an extra star

4/5

Album was better than I thought it was going to be! New York rap scene vibes.

While I respect the cultural impact of this album, I thought it was trash. The synth beats they used didn’t age very well in my opinion.

Loveless

My Bloody Valentine

4/5

Country Life

5/5

This album was fantastic. Great instrumentals, vocals, beat, rhythm.

3/5

Okay album. Wasn’t the biggest fan of Laura’s choice of harmony with the music being played, but enjoyed the instrumentals. Jazz and blues elements.

Not my kind of sound at all. Tried to listen to the whole thing but made it 3 songs in before I quit. Appreciate the singers different style and sound, but did not sound good to my ears.
