Madman Across The Water by Elton John
Oct 24 2023

I didn't listen to the whole thing, but it has a lot of great classics on it. EJ has had it the whole time.

Illmatic by Nas
Oct 25 2023

Solid. Lots of piano. I hadn't expected that. I think the way we use represent! Comes from the song represent. Also catch me in queensbridge

Different Class by Pulp
Oct 26 2023

It might get a fifth start on a second listen, but it was good. Def. Variations on a theme

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Oct 27 2023

Mostly familiar. Sort of show tunes. Fun for a moment.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Oct 30 2023

Not like anything else I've listened to. Adrobeat +politics + I'm not sure what.

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Oct 31 2023

Two long tracks. The drummer on the first track must be a machine! That symbol just cruises all the way through. It's sweet kind of ethereal, like a dream.

I'm Your Man by Leonard Cohen
Nov 01 2023

So 80s and so Cohen. My favorite part may be the bg vocals. Lovely if more dated than I would have expected

Moon Safari by Air
Nov 02 2023

I liked this more and more as it played on. Beth Hirsh's sings killed my. So sweet. This is almost a genre into itself I thought. But when Spotify played massive attack and portished I wondered if I haven't kissed s while gender of sweet ethereal rock

Ingenue by k.d. lang
Nov 03 2023

Still lovely!

B-52's by The B-52's
Nov 08 2023

5* for The animal sound effects on rock lobster alone, but a fun jam. Classic. Hilarious. Short!

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits
Nov 09 2023

I forgot 16 shells from this album. In my imagination, apparently, it was much more recent like mule variations recent. Anyway, classic album. Real gems. Listening with headphones I heard lyrics I'd never noticed before. Tom is a genius still but he was definitely a genius then

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Nov 10 2023

Shoot, most of the songs on the first greatest hits album are on this album. Really lovely

Let's Get It On by Marvin Gaye
Nov 13 2023

So much sex song. Of course, I'd listen to him sing the dictionary. I wonder if that shit ever really works with the ladies?

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Nov 14 2023

The music is okay. There's some pretty rad saxophone. Musicality is alright. It's hard for me to get past the exploitation part of "blacksploitation" I guess or maybe I just didn't listen to enough times to feel it. Not a favorite.

Viva Hate by Morrissey
Nov 22 2023

Morrissey being Morrissey

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Nov 23 2023

Holds up. I really do love the album, and I enjoyed listening to it again, but it's difficult for me to give it five stars. I guess I think of the 5th star as being "classic status," and it doesn't feel that way to me. 10 years from now maybe I'll change my mind

GREY Area by Little Simz
Nov 28 2023

I'd even heard of little Simz. I really enjoyed the album. P power and all that. Some cool genre mixes. Lots of bravado.

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Nov 29 2023

How do I not know about Louis prima and Keely Smith?

Bad by Michael Jackson
Nov 30 2023

I forgot how many of these songs... Aren't on Thriller...

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield
Dec 01 2023

Some parts were cool. I see why at the time it came out it may have had an impact and how that impact may have carried through, but it just didn't enjoy it that much

Greetings From L.A. by Tim Buckley
Dec 06 2023

Music about sex and not in the cute way. But also not quite silly. Funny at times, rude all the time.

Low-Life by New Order
Dec 11 2023

Some times I really enjoyed it. Some times, though, all I could think was "dated". Usually that means I need a couple more listens to get past it. It feels like they both lost and gained something important after Joy Division, anyway. I'll listen again. Also, that CHIN. whoa.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Dec 12 2023

Probably the top of the top tier albums to mix the class and sound of an older age with darkness

Giant Steps by The Boo Radleys
Dec 13 2023

Sometimes beautiful and reminiscent of the Beatles, sometimes kinda empty and immitative of its era... Or maybe I didn't give it enough of a chance

The Rolling Stones by The Rolling Stones
Dec 15 2023

Still classic. I wonder if everybody got paid for the rights to those blues songs?

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Dec 18 2023

Some really great songs with a couple of songs I still can't seem to enjoy. I guess that's what happens when your band has a love of the discordant

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Dec 22 2023

A lot of great songs. No bad songs

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Dec 25 2023

Still love it!

New Wave by The Auteurs
Dec 28 2023

Meh.

Jan 01 2024

Sam Cooke was already great. It makes you wonder what you missed not having the chance to see him live.

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
Jan 03 2024

I knew some songs but had never listened to the album. Good.

Heartbreaker by Ryan Adams
Jan 04 2024

I really loved this album. SORRY YOU HAD TO BE A DICK, RYAN. I hope you figure it out.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Jan 08 2024

All I really knew by Frank Zappa was the song valley girl. This was a great instrumental album

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Jan 09 2024

To p 10 of all time

Triangle by The Beau Brummels
Jan 11 2024

Huh.

Coles Corner by Richard Hawley
Jan 12 2024

It's decent. Beautiful at times

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jan 15 2024

Better than I remember

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Jan 16 2024

It thumps, sure. The lyrics can be a bit much.

Opus Dei by Laibach
Jan 17 2024

Idk if I'd listen for fun, but I'm glad to know they're there

Queens of the Stone Age by Queens Of The Stone Age
Jan 19 2024

Didn't finish. It's good. I was just busy. Will come back to it

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jan 22 2024

Better than I remember. John f could burn a place down with that guitar

Crocodiles by Echo And The Bunnymen
Jan 24 2024

Really enjoyed this one

Damaged by Black Flag
Feb 16 2024
1999 by Prince
Feb 20 2024

Does he really say "f### the taste outta' you're mouth"?! Some parts did not age well.

xx by The xx
Mar 07 2024
Is This It by The Strokes
Mar 11 2024

I remember thinking this album was too repetitive but I must have listened to it a lot because it felt nostalgic and I enjoyed it more than I thought I would

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Mar 12 2024

The album I first used to hook my hootie

Heroes by David Bowie
Mar 18 2024

How do I not know Bowie better? This album is so lovely

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Mar 25 2024

Fun. Memorable

Crazysexycool by TLC
Mar 27 2024

Didn't hold up like I thought it would for me. L loved some songs, annoyed by others

Thriller by Michael Jackson
