Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
Oct 21 2023

This is fine but not anything remarkable to me. I find most of the songs pleasant enough but rather forgettable. I've never been a huge fan of the stones and this doesn't change my mind. I like the folky and bluesy aspects of the music but would rather listen those genres outright than this interpretation of them. I'm enjoying the related songs spotify has chosen to play after this album more than the album itself.

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg by Jerry Lee Lewis
Oct 22 2023

I'm not a huge fan of a live album, that being said I'm enjoying this a lot more than I expected to. These are all songs I've heard before, the energy is high and it's quite enjoyable. Will I listen to it again ever? Probably not, but I'm glad I listened to it once. Also, I love a tight 2:30 minute song so much, I need more of those.

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Oct 23 2023

It's good but I feel like I should be more excited about this than I am. I think the problem with some of these classic records is that I'm so familiar with the big songs and then with things that have referenced these records. I think this would be so much different if I heard this when it was new, and all the ideas presented here were new.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 25 2023
Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Oct 26 2023

Finally something that isn't classic rock! Also that I've heard many, many times. I guess I'll give it a fresh listen because why not. I still really like a lot of this. I've never cared for Regine's voice, and I still don't on this listen, but this album is not as bad as some others. Still a very solid album.

Heavy Weather by Weather Report
Oct 27 2023

Finally, something that is truly brand new to me! I really enjoyed this, will listen to more by Weather Report. It's just good vibes.

All Directions by The Temptations
Oct 28 2023

I've never purposely listened to The Tempations, Run Charlie Run was a bit unexpected. This is fine but it doesn't really grab my attention. When it's good it's very good but overall it feels a bit forgettable to me.

Hejira by Joni Mitchell
Oct 29 2023

This all very same-y. I think it's OK but would like more variety.

Nebraska by Bruce Springsteen
Nov 03 2023
Music by Madonna
Nov 10 2023
Time Out by The Dave Brubeck Quartet
Nov 11 2023
The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips
Nov 12 2023

I don't really care for the flaming lips

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Nov 14 2023

I enjoyed this a lot more than I expected. Most of what I knew of Amy Winehouse previously was her singles, which are good but not really my taste. There are a lot of gems on this and her talent is undeniable.

Street Signs by Ozomatli
Nov 15 2023

Three songs in and these are all too repetitive and not to my taste. I'll keep listening but this just doesn't do anything for me.

En-Tact by The Shamen
Nov 16 2023

I went into this completely blind and am very surprised by how much I enjoy it. I'll say it does seem to wane a bit on the back half but over all it's very good.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Nov 20 2023
Time Out Of Mind by Bob Dylan
Dec 08 2023

This is just tooooo long and also not very memorable

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
Dec 13 2023

I think I'm enjoying this far more than I would in a different context, but currently I am in Barbados and it feels right.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jan 20 2024
Movies by Holger Czukay
