Not my style of music, rambles aimlessly to me ,reaffirmed that I just don't like jazz

Gasoline Alley by Rod Stewart
Dec 01 2023

great voice but overall very slow, lyrics/songs are not exciting topics, music sorta puts me to sleep, folk music 3

My Generation by The Who
Dec 04 2023

Not the Who's best but very good. A glimpse of things and albums to come.

Purple Rain by Prince
Dec 06 2023

It's Prince and its Purple Rain. It's a 5

Oxygène by Jean-Michel Jarre
Dec 08 2023

Upbeat instumental music that's ok. Not very emotion provoking. Found it boring 2

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Dec 11 2023

RHCP best album. Plays al.ost like a greatest hits album for me. It's not too funky but funky enough. 4

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Dec 12 2023

Truly the beginning of rock n roll. U can hear the influence of Buddy Holly on the giants to come like the Beatles, Stones, and Who. Hood album 3

The Visitors by ABBA
Dec 13 2023

A bit too slow for me and not as upbeat as other ABBBA albums. Miss the danceable tracks that are usually associated withe their music. 2

Club Classics Vol. One by Soul II Soul
Dec 15 2023

Soul and funk album w/a funky beat. Has a bit of rap flair to it. 3

Bad by Michael Jackson

Probably MJs second best album after Thriller. Lots of great songs and beats. 3

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
Dec 19 2023

Very nice surprise. Hadn't heard ofMK but the album is very smooth and has great beats. 3

Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury by The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy
Dec 20 2023

Not my cup of tea but it did have some cool beats and some interesting lyrics. A bit jazzy at times. 2

Underwater Moonlight by The Soft Boys
Dec 21 2023

Never heard of the SB but really like them! Remind me in beat, guitar licks, lyrics, and attitude to the Clash which is a big compliment. 3

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Dec 22 2023

Just not my thing. Found the beats, lyrics, and music boring. 1

Crime Of The Century by Supertramp
Dec 24 2023

Decent album by ST. It's not Breakfast in America but it has some cool tunes like Dreamer and Bloody Well Right 3

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys
Dec 25 2023

Not being a rap fan it was alright. Good beats and decent lyrics. 2

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Dec 27 2023

Very good MJ album and the first of a string of three consecutive albums that would make him the king of pop. 3

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Dec 28 2023

Not as upbeat as I expected. Hoping for more of the songs to be like Bang a Gong. Good album. 3

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears
Dec 29 2023

Such a big album when it came out back in the day. 3 big hits w/Shout, Everybody wants to rule the world, and Head over heels. The rest of the album is ok. On the strength of those 3 songs it gets a 4...wish I could give it a 3.5

Brothers by The Black Keys
Dec 30 2023

Great alum that has great beats, lyrics/vocals and all around vibes. 4

The Healer by John Lee Hooker
Dec 31 2023

Decent blues/rockabilly album that really isn't my thing. 2

Deloused in the Comatorium by The Mars Volta
Jan 01 2024

Good rock/metal album w/heavy drums and good guitars. Vocals seem a bit muddy but overall it's very potent rock. Reminds me of Zepelin a bit w/some eatly Pink Floyd 3

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Jan 02 2024

Nice album that is a bit moody. A lot of the songs sound the same. Good effort. 3

Songs Of Love And Hate by Leonard Cohen
Jan 03 2024

If I wasn't told who the artist was I would have thought it was Johnny Cash. The album was a bit too depressing for my taste. 2

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Jan 04 2024

Strong vocals on a very soulful album. Not sure I heard the "rock" that's mentioned in the title though. 2

Youth And Young Manhood by Kings of Leon
Jan 05 2024

Very upbeat album with heavy drums and guitars. Love the vocals. California Waiting is one of my fave songs by them. Probably their second best album after Only by the Night. 3

Melodrama by Lorde
Jan 06 2024

Very upbeat and fun album with great beats and vocals...and some less upbeat and melodrama songs. Green Light is a real cool tune. 3

Public Image: First Issue by Public Image Ltd.
Jan 07 2024

A bunch of noise w/stupid lyrics. If I could give it a 0 I would. 1

White Light by Gene Clark

Nice voice and melodies but a bit yo slow and folksy for me

The Good, The Bad & The Queen by The Good, The Bad & The Queen
Jan 11 2024

Another band I never heard of but I feel I should have. Didn't realize it was a supergroup w/so many accomplished players. A bit mellow but a fun album to listen to. 3

Kid A by Radiohead
Jan 14 2024

Cool album w/a couple of hits. 3

Central Reservation by Beth Orton
Jan 15 2024

Very dreamy and ethereal album. Beth has a very strong but relaxing voice. The music is a bit mellow and moody but cool 3

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Jan 16 2024

Instrumental album w/songs I've heard but didn't know who performed them. Some good and some not as good so good. 2

Cool album w/songs I've head but didn't know who sang them. 3
