Goodbye And Hello

Tim Buckley

5/5

This may be my favorite album I’ve listened to so far. It hits such a sweet spot of folk and psychedelia that I love from this era. Him and Donovan were certainly powerhouses of this genre

Green Onions

The recording seems a lot looser than some albums from this time, I think that’s why I like it more

Brutal Youth

Elvis Costello

3/5

Not his strongest album, but still enjoyable

My Generation

The Who

4/5

I really love Keith Moon’s drumming style, so I’m of course excited for this album. It’s a testament of how this early style of rock would lead to a development of alt rock later on

It’s albums like this that make me proud to be from Georgia

Queens of the Stone Age

3/5

I think they would go onto have stronger albums than this. It’s a good starter place for their sound, really heavy, but nothing I would go super crazy to see live.

Just straight groove. No highs or lows, just consistently great

Sex Packets

Digital Underground

2/5

Underwater rimes is such a fun song to listen to, but this album just felt too long for what it was. I’m a bit too young for this early hip-hop, and that’s fine

An incredible blues album. Only reason it’s not higher is because I know he has better albums, but there are some real gems in here

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

This is the second DJ album I’ve gotten this week and honestly I think the first one is better and more dynamic. However, the technicality should definitely be appreciated for this one

Cute little Bossa-nova record that made my heart happy with the cover of “You didn’t have to be so nice”. Not complicated and not trying to break any boundaries, just a good listen

This is a great album for raves. Not as fun to listen on your own. Of the DJ albums I’ve gotten though, it’s one of the best, it’s just long

Something/Anything?

Todd Rundgren

3/5

It’s great, I just can’t seem to get the underlying theme. It’s a little too long for what it is, but I can tell he’s extremely talented and the songs are really nice
