Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Oct 09 2023

Soulful rocks and roll. with the crowd thrown in, it feels like they’re right in front of me. This is an album that you’ll listen to front to back. What an era of music.

Oct 10 2023

Great album, atmospheric and emotional. Just not my 5 star music, a few songs in the tail ain’t aren’t perfect to me.

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Oct 11 2023

Stellar, it’s an experience to listen to it. Every song could be stand alone.

3 Feet High and Rising by De La Soul
Oct 12 2023

Wish I could give this 3.5, I love this style and era. Really fun album. I’ll give it some more solid time.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Oct 15 2023

Amazing album. I can dig it

Berlin by Lou Reed
Oct 16 2023
Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Oct 17 2023

I love what they did, but the music it’s my favorite.

Back At The Chicken Shack by Jimmy Smith
Nov 14 2023

Finally an instrumental jazz album! and with a steller Organ player at that, very unique.

The Poet by Bobby Womack
Nov 23 2023

The funky base was undoubtedly the best part

Rapture by Anita Baker
Nov 30 2023
Green by R.E.M.
Dec 01 2023
So by Peter Gabriel
Dec 02 2023
Zombie by Fela Kuti
Dec 19 2023

Read the story behind this guy, and this album. Wild stuff. Great music

Junkyard by The Birthday Party
Dec 24 2023
Cut by The Slits
Dec 25 2023
Blue by Joni Mitchell
Mar 03 2024
Bad by Michael Jackson

Tarkus by Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Mar 08 2024
Mar 18 2024

I rated a 3 because it was so novel, and quite a different sound. Would I listen to it again? Probably once more but that’s it!

Crosby, Stills & Nash by Crosby, Stills & Nash
Mar 19 2024

What a phenomenal album. In a time when records were meant to listen to from beginning to end. The harmonies and dreamy guitar tunes truly makes you feel out of body at times.

Like A Prayer by Madonna
Mar 24 2024

Fun and poppy album, but most songs individually didn’t do it for me. Of course Like a Prayer is banging.

Bossanova by Pixies
Apr 02 2024

Great pixies sound. They always sound so raw to me, don’t know how to put it really but I love it!

Bandwagonesque by Teenage Fanclub
Apr 04 2024

I’m surprisingly giving this one a 4, maybe it set the mood for my stormy dash to Santa Cruz for an epic surf trip but it was fun to listen to.

The Genius Of Ray Charles by Ray Charles
Apr 23 2024

Stellar big band soulfully made album, love it. Great listening to when cleaning and moving out!

The Bends by Radiohead
Apr 27 2024

Incredible album, nearly every song is a stand alone beauty. It’s like the aftertaste of a good oolong tea. Just soothe and sweet down the throat (ears). So wavy.

Apr 28 2024

The synth-pop was a fun change but it’s not my favorite, the lyrics/voice was too much for me.

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Jan 12 2025

I’ve never listened to this album as a whole and it’s phenomenal. Planet caravan took me for a ride . . .

Jan 15 2025

Definitely saving this album, one you can just put on and enjoy front to back, beautiful, soulful and a clean sound

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
Jan 16 2025

Fun, great samples from this album. Old school rap

Elephant by The White Stripes
Jan 17 2025

Raw, clean sounding. I like that, I think it had to do with the recording method, interesting.

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Feb 04 2025

Really surprised me, an album I will definitely give another listen. Some really great instrumentals in there along with a unique voice creates an interesting sound straight from the 70’s

Night Life by Ray Price
Feb 07 2025

Novel listen with some great vocals and fun tunes

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Feb 08 2025

Love blue moon and I’ll never let you go. The rest is not my favorite, maybe another listen

Bluesbreakers by John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers
Apr 11 2025

I love the blues, but not my blues.
