This is the amp used on Pet Sounds. This is the keyboard used on Pet Sounds. This is the microphone used on Pet Sounds. This is the horse from Pet Sounds. This is my trauma from Pet Sounds. This is my firstborn given to Pet Sounds.
All our classic in the genre. Booker T. remains a badass mother fucker.
This is quintessential 60s Brit rock. Might be more folksy than what I like about the Beatles, but it's still great.
Top tier 70s R&B. Rivals "What's Going On" for me as the best from the era.
This is just a [Insert Fallout game title] soundtrack right?
"Everything Put Together Falls Apart" is the sad bop of the century.
Cash's guitar tone is so good here. His banter is excellent alongside a really rowdy crowd. I cant say I've ever heard anyone be *bleeped* on a live concert album! Sad we only got 30 seconds of Folsom Prison, but psyched we got a reprise of San Quentin!

Meeeeeeeeehhhhhhh
An album that is very much of its time. Nothing too special on here, but it still provides a good listen. Just solid, folk-rock with heavy Byrds, Fleetwood Mac, Allman Brothers influences. Super bold to follow up a song called "Sunlight" with "Double Sunlight". Also, hilarious to have a record-flip song. After listening to this, I went through their debut album; it is much better.
Easily their best. It's fantastic all the way through.
So experimental, so new, so above its time. Miles really was pushing the envelope with the new sonic scapes found In A Silent Way and explored further here. Certainly a controversial album for the time, but its influence is still found today. Definitely not as much as the previous album.
I mean its Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd. What's not to like🤷♂️
My mom loves this album.
Classic Queen being Queen.
André 3000 has such a distinct voice; especially in the world of hip hop. Stankonia has top notch production and, coincidentally, released on Halloween back in 2000.

This ain't it.
Super nostalgic listen for me. I remember Justin getting this from the library and we drove around after school listening to it. The production is very cool on this album. Lots of little details in the recordings to really draw you into its world.
Suuuuper cheesy seventies glam rock. It's nearly all ballads minus "Peg". Certainly not as good as Can't Buy A Thrill, bit the harmonies are nice and the mix is really solid.
I really respect a lot of what Damon Albarn has done for the pop-rock industry, but his earlier Blur albums just don't do it for me. Where most of the 90s consisted of American grunge and punk, Blur was just continuing along a weird, cornball saga.
Amy Winehouse is such a pivotal figure in modern R&B. Super unique voice paired with a classic styling of Blues and Jazz instrumentation makes her wholly one of a kind.
I really enjoyed this listen. It made my morning commute much more enjoyable. It also has prepared me for the American music I'll be hearing all over Silver Dollar City this weekend. The two ballads by Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were out of place on this record.
Beastie Boys before the Beastie Boys. Influential for the times, but it just isn't too special a listen nowadays.
Aerosmith are a weird band. Sweet Emotion is great, though.
The Stooges, otherwise know as, The Rolling Stones *psych-rock version.
This is a solid rock album. I only know the Classic Radio station rotation of ZZ Top hits, but there is a lot more to them. They're almost like a light Sabbath.
Fats is always a fun time.
This just didn't hit for me. There is some good guitars tones and double vocals, but it is too tied up with the 80s hair band sound that I despise.
This is just not my thing🤷♂️
A short, sweet, and delightful 40 minute album. I wasn't expecting an Unchained Melody cover, but I loved it! Nelson's voice is a perfect medium between old, country music star and 20s cocktail lounge singer.
I haven't gotten into any of Czukay's other projects besides CAN, but this was pretty good. Has a nice krautrock vibe, while also being experimental post rock. The samples are used sparingly, which I liked.
Really good bluegrass with Nelson's soft timbre. The songs are sweet and don't waste anytime. Nice winter album to sit by a fire and drink coffee to.
Admittedly, this is my first Bob Marley album. I've only ever gotten into the hits. It was fine, but the plethora of fade outs really brings an album down for me. It shows that someone can't finish a song when there are too many of them.
All around classic 70s pop album. The voices are immaculate, the instrumentation is large, and the tunes are oh so right. I really like "Help" and "I'll Never Fall in Love Again". They remind me why I love Karen Carpenter so much.
Liquid Swords is a great album that I've always thought is more back-filled. The album is very well produced but with songs like 4th Chamber and Shadowboxin' towards the middle/end of the album it just kind of feels like the beginning is a lot of preamble.
Pretty corny tunes, maybe a bit sexist too, but the harmonies are nice.
Just AC/DC being some hard ass mother f**kers.
I'm sure I'd like this more if I was exposed to it earlier in life, but it just didn't land for me. Her voice is beautiful, but there are some wacky gutteral sounds and yips that it really took me out of it.
Nice, easy listen. Can't say I was really into it, but Jimmy Smith is the king of the Organ.
Genius is right!
This sounds like all of the scrappy bands I played with back in High School. Not that much of a compliment.
Morrissey is such a strange character. His older tracks were certainly left-wing, but now he's seemingly the exact opposite nowadays? As a wild wordsmith of the 80s, these songs feel tripe and like some kind of weird roleplay for him. I'm not really sure how to feel. One thing is for sure, however. If you don't know what the song is called, 9/10 it is just the first line of the tune. Hilarious meme.
Super solid Talking Heads album. I always love David Byrne's vocal mixing on his projects. He's like a megaphone wielding orator screaming in the streets. The production is also very well done. Bringing us into the 80s pop scene.
All our classic in the genre. Booker T. remains a badass mother fucker.
Admittedly, this was my first full Pharcyde album. Their ensemble is super well done and everyone gets a shot at the spotlight. In my opinion, however, A Tribe Called Quest just pulls this off better. There are really solid beats on this album, but it is mostly one note. Still, nice listen to have at the gym.
Method Man isn't my favorite Wu member, but his flow is always solid and accusatory. He's ok lyrically, but he really shines with his beats and accompaniments.
Certainly not their best effort, but I enjoy it for what it is.
Very overplayed classic Rock station band. As a kid it was fun to jam to it on Guitar Hero, but now it's just old-guy rock n' roll.
I don't like Van Halen.
A sweet, dreamy album that has some heavier themes. The instrumentals from Beach House are always very well produced and appropriate for their vision. Good band.
The best Bowie album. I'll fight over that.
Sex SELLS.
The album is way shorter than I remember, so I really flew through this. Super good listen!
Elvis is hot and I don't care who knows it!!
THE jazz album.
Top quality rap album that I don't get back to enough.
This was one of the first albums I'd ever bought on vinyl. I love the blend of blues and rock with a hint of psych. Fogerty has such a perfect voice for this genre.
I've only ever listened to Moment of Truth, but never his first album. Pretty classic 90s flows and instrumentation.
