2112 by Rush
Oct 07 2023

This is a classic Rush album. Great guitar and vocals. Song one is twenty minutes long! There are some good production parts, like whispering lyrics on left channel while regular singing on right channel. Probably would not listen again. 3/5

The Band by The Band
Oct 08 2023

How many of them are the lead singer? Oh, cripple creek. Classic. Would give this a two and definitely won't listen again. Up it one point though, 3/5, but only for cripple creek.

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Oct 09 2023
