New Boots And Panties by Ian Dury

I'm sure this was for someone, just not for me. I enjoy a bit of cockney British tomfoolery at times, but not for a full album.

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Dec 04 2023

Love me some White Stripes, Jack White, dirty rock stuff. Like this album but feel like it's not their best stuff. More blues and melodic than a hard rock album. Still good stuff.

S&M by Metallica
Dec 11 2023

Great album. Putting these two together was a great idea. The live audience made it better with their reactions and applause. I felt like Hetfield's vocals were a bit lacking on a few songs, like they didn't hit like they once did. Album is 24 years old. Crazy.

The Score by Fugees

I remember when this came out. It was my brother's Senior year of high school. This was so mainstream that they let white people buy it. Killing Me Softly was on heavy radio rotation. It's funny how the two most popular songs on this album were covers/samples of classics.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Dec 14 2023

Do love the White Stripes. This was big when it came out. The music video for "Fell in Love with a Girl" was made with Lego and was in heavy rotation on MTV. Many peoples introduction to the White Stripes and Jack White. Now "We're Going to be Friends" is used as the theme music for Conan O'Brien's popular podcast "Conan O'Brien Needs a Friend." Likely why it has a resurgence in streams on many sites. Still love that dirty rock sound that Jack White makes.

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Dec 15 2023

Love Led Zepplin. Definitely one of my favorite bands of all time. Definition of the 70s rock era. I haven't looked at the whole list, but I'm guessing that there will be more Zepplin to come. Trying to get my kids introduced to this. I know it shows up in a lot of movie trailers and soundtracks.

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Dec 18 2023

Can't say I've ever been in love with Radiohead. They definitely have some good stuff but this one was pretty melancholy. Likely would not put this in heavy rotation in my house.

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Dec 19 2023

Not totally in my wheelhouse. I know some people fawn over David Bowie but I feel like some songs were a complete mess. I do like "Let's Spend the Night Together," but not this album as a whole. Definitely has it's place in history though.

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Dec 20 2023

I've never heard of this band before but I actually enjoyed this. LIstened to it pretty much straight through. Some good drums on a couple of these tracks. 80s London. What a time!

Beauty And The Beat by The Go-Go's
Dec 21 2023

Not too bad. Couple hits in here. Beginning of girl punk? i like it.

Throwing Muses by Throwing Muses
Dec 22 2023

Wasn't my favorite. Couldn't get through just a few songs.
