Curtis Mayfield
3/5
Interesting to learn that this album earned more than the corresponding movie. The sounds good, but I only got hooked by a couple of tracks, and eventually the falsetto got kind of old.

The one track I really like is O Trem Azul. Aside from that, I like the vibe of the album, but nothing else stood out as a really memorable song.

Dear lord that was awful. I'm a little shocked I made it through the album. There were only brief moments that were in any way listenable. The rest was an attack on my ears and my soul.

Creedence Clearwater Revival
4/5
I like CCR and this album is really solid. Also, this is impressive: "It was the second of three albums they released in that year"

Thundercat
3/5
Before listening I first read a bit about Thundercat, including that he was in Suicidal Tendencies. That context totally threw me off; I expected the album to be very different from what it was -- no punk/thrash, just a mellow mix of jazz and hip hop, with some tongue-in-cheek lyrics. There are some really cool chord progressions, like in DUI. I'd want to listen to this again.
