A Night At The Opera
Queen
This was a very interesting listen. Other than the hits Bohemian Rhapsody and You're my Best Friend I hadn't heard any of these songs. I quite liked it. You're my best friend did initially feel a little out of place compared to the previous tracks but then seaside rendezvous came on and that was really different and I actually loved it. I remember thinking the opening track death on two legs was pretty progressive and I really enjoyed that and then Sweet Lady hits and it's very prog rock and it's great. The prophets song was an incredible journey.
Yeah this is a pretty good album. Not something I'd probably go back to though to be honest. 3 days into this journey and nothing but good to great albums. It'll be interesting when I actually come across something I don't like. But I can't wait to listen to something that I love so much I add it to my regular listening rotation.

Love the first four albums by Arcade Fire. Have listened to them each multiple times. In fact this is the first one I did listen to all the way through. Haven't listened to much of their stuff post Reflektor. And it's kind of hard to want to do that now with all that's come out about Win Butler. I mean I had heard that he was a real pretentious prick. But now it seems he's a pretentious prick who abuses his power to force women to do sexual things with him. I don't really have a problem separating the art from the artist. Especially since Win Butler is just one part of Arcade Fire it's just unfortunate that he's the front/main singer of the band.

AC/DC
Hey, can you keep a beat on the drums? Yeah, well congratulations, you can play every single AC/DC song on the drums. Man I really don't like AC/DC. I didn't expect this to be my first rating lower than three stars. I did try to go in with an open mind. You can't deny the success they had. And sure there's some good/iconic guitar riffs and solos they came up with. But boy oh boy do I not care for it. The only reason I am not rating it 1 star is because I'll reserve that rating for albums I would actually hate and actively tell people not to listen to. 2 stars means I didn't like it. I thought maybe I would have been able to rate this 3 stars. But that is reserved for things that I don't have strong feelings for one way or the other. This is the first album I've come across that not only do I not like, I also don't think it's good. I do recognize that is my own opinion and based on their popularity I know I'm probably a minority here but I don't think they make good music.

Our Aim Is To Satisfy
Red Snapper
I feel like perhaps I've been too generous in the past, especially with electronic music. I don't know why but this is the straw that broke the camel's back. This is the first 1 star review I'm giving out. I know I've been to generous in the past and if it wasn't something I liked I would just rate it 3 stars saying it wasn't for me. But this is a bridge too far. I really didn't like this. It wasn't for me. I don't know who this is for. It was boring and repetitive. It maybe even is a little better than some of the other electronic albums that I rated earlier because it does every so often do something a little bit different... But barely, and not good enough. So I guess I'm changing the way I rate things maybe.

When Blueski came on, I was relieved, I thought wow a break from the same stuff over and over again. But I was wrong. Blueski is just the same thing over and over again for 3 minutes. A welcome break from the rest of the album. But also repetitive on it's own. And then Stagger was also whatever.

The Next Day
David Bowie
Bowie is my favourite musician/artist of all time. I personally believe he is the G.O.A.T. I've listened to his entire discography multiple times over. And pretty much constantly. It's pretty rare that a day goes by where I don't listen to at least one of his albums. So I was more than happy to re-listen to The Next Day. Although this album might not even crack the top 10 of my favourite Bowie albums, I'm such a fanboy and I absolutely love this album.
Some seriously great songs on here. I mean Where Are We Now. What a beautiful song. The ending might just be one of his most romantic ever. I just love Bowie

Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room
Dwight Yoakam
Okay. So I do not like country music. Like at all. That being said, I didn't mind this album so much, because there was some breaks from the repetitiveness. Although overall it was rather repetitive. I don't know country music just all sort of sounds the same to me. But like I said some of the songs on this album did stuff a little differently and that was a nice break. I also have enjoyed Dwight Yoakam in some of his acting roles that I've seen so that helped. I am also more inclined to appreciate this style of country music, when compared to modern country music. Because well, this is actual music. Whereas modern country music is nothing more than corporate, paint by numbers pandering. As Bo Burnham said, it's textbook pandering. And it's honestly insulting. So I appreciate the fact that there is actual musicianship here. But with all that being said, I still don't like country music... Like at all.

Hunky Dory
David Bowie
Bowie IS the greatest artist of all time. He's certainly my favorite. And this album in my opinion is the quintessential Bowie album. A lot of people will say that's The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars. And while I also love that album, I honestly believe this album fits the bill better. While The Ziggy album is quite firmly commented in his glam era, Hunky Dory captures more of his overall sounds. There's some stuff that sounds like his earlier folksy-er outings. There's his poppy stuff from the time, and there's hints towards his glam rock outings to come. There's even some really experimental sounds here as well that he would continue to do for the rest of his career. Love Bowie and I love this album.

Heroes
David Bowie
I absolutely love Bowie. See my other reviews to see my thoughts on him as an artist. He's my all time favourite. I love this album. However I will say it took a few times, like all of the albums from his Berlin trilogy to get the hang of. I remember going into this album pretty casually thinking the title track would be the indication of how the whole album would sound. And it's not quite like that. It did take a few listens to really sink in for me. And it might actually be my least favourite of the Berlin trilogy. Low being one of his absolute best albums. And Lodger being just more interesting in my opinion than Heroes. But again, I love this album and I love Bowie!

Johnny Cash
This list has made me a fan of Johnny Cash. I didn't feel too strongly about him one way or another beforehand. I like how I did get his first live prison album first and then his second one in order. But man these two albums are just so entertaining. Really enjoyed this. And again, I am not a fan of country music whatsoever. But this is just good stuff.

This is difficult. I mean I don't know. There's nothing inherently wrong with this... Box set... It's not really an album. Or is it... I don't know. It's super long. Too long. I didn't hate it though. I mean it did end up feeling like work going through the whole thing. But it's not bad in anyway. I did like the music. But it's just WAY TOO LONG.

Wow. Not even a full year in and I've gotten all of Bowie's albums that are on the list. I understand some people's complaints that people shouldn't need more than 3 or so albums on the list. But honestly I think Bowie really is the GOAT and I'm happy he has as many albums on the list as he does. He's my favourite of all time. I'd be fine if he had more. He had an incredible range. Experimented a lot. He's totally deserving.
As for this album, it's kind of underrated and overlooked. Some of the best vocals in his career. Just great stuff. Love this album. Love Bowie.
