Popular Reviews

Djam Leelii by Baaba Maal

Brilliant. Exactly what I am looking for from this list. An album that I should have listened to before.

Heartbreaker by Ryan Adams

Good music. Seems like a bad person.

1-Star Albums (3)

All Ratings (204)

Aja by Steely Dan
Oct 15 2023

Classic from Steely Dan. Jazz Yacht Rock Fusion. Source of some many Hip Hop samples. Peg is an absolute yacht rock monster. Sampled by De La Soul.

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Oct 16 2023

I had never heard this album before coming to this site. Excellent album.

S&M by Metallica
Oct 17 2023
Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Oct 18 2023

This is a classic of the genre.

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Oct 21 2023

I really enjoy Dark Side of the Moon and Animals. This album is overblown, too long, and boring. I couldn't finish it. Some of the songs are good, but the whole thing is too long

Faust IV by Faust
Oct 22 2023

I've never heard of this album before today. This is excellent. Thanks for the recommendation.

Garbage by Garbage
Oct 23 2023

Yeah No. Not for me

Oct 25 2023

Not my style of music. I can see that other might like it.

Bitte Orca by Dirty Projectors
Oct 27 2023

Nice album. I had not listened to the whole thing before this.

Highway to Hell by AC/DC
Oct 28 2023

Yeah! Hell Yeah! Last album with Bon Scott. Touch Too Much is killer.

Private Dancer by Tina Turner
Oct 29 2023

I had forgotten about Better Be Good to Me. Good tune.

The Boatman's Call by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Nov 04 2023

This is great. Why didn't you tell me about this before today?

My Generation by The Who
Nov 09 2023

Damn, Isley Brothers and Sam Cooke. The song My Generation is cool

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits
Nov 10 2023

Rainbirds is a gorgeous song. This album is very theatrical.

1984 by Van Halen
Nov 12 2023

Some good tunes

Home Is Where The Music Is by Hugh Masekela
Nov 14 2023

Wow. Did not know this album. Great funky jazz from 1972. I feel like this album has a similar feel to what Herbie Hancock did with the Headhunters.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Nov 15 2023
Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Nov 16 2023

This album has been surpassed by the Smile Sessions release.

Nov 17 2023

The beats and samples on this record are still super tight. Great use of jazz samples. Solaar opened up the world to non-English rap.

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Nov 19 2023

Excellent example of the genre

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Nov 20 2023

Solid. Knew the hits. Never listened to the whole album

Berlin by Lou Reed
Nov 22 2023

not my cup of tea

1977 by Ash
Nov 23 2023
Traffic by Traffic
Nov 24 2023

Decent fun.

GI by Germs
Nov 27 2023

Angry

Deserter's Songs by Mercury Rev
Nov 29 2023

I have never heard of this band or album. It's OK.

Revolver by Beatles
Nov 30 2023

Pretty fantastic.

Guitar Town by Steve Earle
Dec 03 2023

Sentimental record for from gowing up

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Dec 05 2023

What do we do this album? Some many genre-defining tracks on here. Some filler tracks. So much baggage.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Dec 07 2023

I was behind in my reviews, so I reviewed two albums back to back. The other album was System of a Down. The whiplash my spirit experienced! These albums are only 41 years apart, but they sound like they are from different universes.

System Of A Down by System Of A Down
Dec 08 2023

I'm not angry enough. I live a comfortable middle-class life. My days of rage are over.

Rattlesnakes by Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
Dec 10 2023

I've never even heard of this album before subbing to this app. Thanks for a number new album and group.

Entertainment by Gang Of Four
Dec 14 2023

My apologies. I was not familiar with your game.

Teen Dream by Beach House
Dec 15 2023

We talking vibes on vibes. Vibes on vibes. Real Love is a terrific song.

Boston by Boston
Dec 16 2023

Classic Classic Rock that you've heard a million times on FM Stations.

The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips
Dec 19 2023

Overall the album is a 3, but A Spoonful Weighs a Ton and The Spark that Bled are fantastic.

Goo by Sonic Youth
Dec 20 2023

this album is great

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
Dec 23 2023

This was game changing at the time. Lyrical content seems a little sophmoric now.

Graceland by Paul Simon
Dec 25 2023

The music sounds good, but SO much baggage.

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jan 20 2024

Not consistent. Seems dated.

Gasoline Alley by Rod Stewart
Jan 24 2024

Solid album. Not ground-breaking.

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Jan 28 2024

This was already one of my desert island discs. I've listened to this album many times. The poly-rhythmic interaction between Coltrane and the other players in his band means that I can listen to this album many, many times and never get bored. I wish that I could give this a 6.

Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto
Jan 29 2024

This album was played in every restaurant and lounge in Vancouver in 2000

All Directions by The Temptations
Jan 30 2024

Solid album. Anchored by Papa Was a Rolling Stone. It is strange to hear "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" and the voice is so close to Roberta Flack. Also, "Do Your Thing" not the Isaac Hayes version.

Stankonia by OutKast
Jan 31 2024

I am a big fan of Outkast. I own their first 3 albums. This album made them blow up, but I don’t think it is as good as the earlier albums. So Fresh and So Clean and Ms Jackson are classics

Kenya by Machito
Feb 04 2024

Not my style of jazz

Life Thru A Lens by Robbie Williams
Feb 05 2024

How is this on the list with some all-time classic albums???

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Feb 06 2024

This album has some amazing bangers: Wanna Be Starting Something Thriller Billie Jean Human Nature Solid 80s RnB: Baby Be Mine lady in My Life Never Liked: Beat It Crazy funky, but hard to listen to today. Who is he singing this one to? P.Y.T.

Lust For Life by Iggy Pop
Feb 07 2024

This is the type of album this list is good for. An album that I should have listened to a long time ago that is really good. Solid album with some great songs

Cypress Hill by Cypress Hill
Feb 08 2024

DJ Muggs production is amazing on this one. The blues and soul samples are killer.

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
Feb 09 2024

Some decent songs

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Feb 10 2024

Some amazing songs on here. Blue Skies is fantastic.

Djam Leelii by Baaba Maal
Feb 11 2024

Brilliant. Exactly what I am looking for from this list. An album that I should have listened to before.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Feb 13 2024

C'mon, man. You can't have that Robbie Williams garbage and this work of art on the same list. I forgot how good Maybe Your Baby is. That guitar and bassline

Kings Of The Wild Frontier by Adam & The Ants
Feb 18 2024

This is why this list has value. I had never listened to this album, but it is really good.

Hms Fable by Shack
Feb 19 2024

OK. Sounds like a lot of other stuff from the time.

Mar 06 2024

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Mar 10 2024

Done By The Forces Of Nature by Jungle Brothers
Mar 11 2024

I had this on a tape since it first came out. Love it still to this day. One of the great examples of sampling.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Mar 12 2024
Heartbreaker by Ryan Adams
Mar 15 2024

Good music. Seems like a bad person.

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Mar 19 2024

Amazing

BEYONCÉ by Beyoncé
Mar 21 2024

Seems paper-thin in artistic quality. The soul seems hyper-processed out.

Led Zeppelin IV by Led Zeppelin
Mar 26 2024

I find Robert Plant’s voice annoying now.

Fromohio by fIREHOSE
Mar 27 2024

Decent.

Duck Rock by Malcolm McLaren

This album is incredibly influential, but there are some problems with the authorship and credit.

Duran Duran must have bought a copy of this record.

Apr 04 2024

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
Apr 11 2024

Almost too stylish

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Apr 13 2024

Amazing

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Apr 15 2024

This was a massive record. The band is amazing. Lyrics are a little cringey now.

Harvest by Neil Young
Apr 16 2024

Good

Different Class by Pulp
Apr 21 2024

I don't get the fuss about this album.

Apr 22 2024

One of the greatest ever. One of the most important rap albums ever made. This album changed the game when it came out.

Cross by Justice
Apr 24 2024

Loud and noisy. Some songs are fantastic. Others induce stress

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Apr 27 2024

This album is overshadowed by Rumours, but it is solid all the way through

Apr 29 2024

Honey is fun. The rest is meh

May 15 2024

Had never heard. Was quite lovely.

Medúlla by Björk
May 16 2024

I get Bjork is cool and innovative, but it seems too cerebral.

May 18 2024

A clsssic. Did not realize at the time I was listening as a kid how much they were taking from other artists.

Dr. Octagonecologyst by Dr. Octagon
