In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

5/5

My HS cassette did not survive, so I have not listened to this recently. I forgot how good it was, but I probably wasn't old enough to appreciate it in HS. Much more than just the title song and Schizoid Man. Really liked Epitaph.

Violent Femmes

4/5

A couple of instantly identifiable singles plus a number of other songs worth listening to. I don't remember listening to this album when I was in college, but probably because of the preferences of the friends I hung out with.

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

5/5

I dismissed this when it came out because it was "rap", but I have gotten into how good the Boys were in following years. Great album!

Cosmo's Factory

Creedence Clearwater Revival

5/5

Practically a "best of". Even the songs I have not heard previously are pretty damn good.

At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

5/5

How have I not listened to this full album before, or heard the Green, Green Grass of Home?

It's Blitz!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

5/5

I knew the singles, but great album all the way through.

I had never listened to anything by CB, and likely won't again. Knob twiddling not my thing.

Street Signs

Ozomatli

4/5

A little too much rapping on some songs, but some really strong ones as well. Would love to see them live one more time....
