Tracy Chapman
This is hard to rate. On the one hand, this has some incredible highs. Her song writing and singing ability is insane and is super talented obviously, could be a 5. I also do think that some of it can feel a little dated and 80s especially the production of it. I’ll go with a 4

Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1
George Michael
Before I even start…..I see a “they won’t go when I go” cover……GEORGE……tread lightly my friend……this could be bad.
lmao this cover is shameful. If this was the original version i would be amazed, but dude is role playing as steveland and hes not as good.
Ok... honestly, it wasn't all that bad. Its not my genre really, but there were good songs on it. If it was the only cd in the car I wouldn't be that upset. Its interesting getting this right after U2. This probably had more fun up beat hits like Freedom, but I think if I was alive back then I would for sure buy the U2 album before this one. Ill give this one a 2 because I cant give everything a 3, but this is a loving 2, it is competing aagainst the best after all.

Ritual De Lo Habitual
Jane's Addiction
How can I not compare this to susie and the banshees that I just got?
I think these bands and albums are similar. They are trying to be punk rock, of course one was a pioneer of the genre, and one comes 10 years later. This may just be my mood at this point in my life, but susies vocals are just so seductive and intriguing, these dudes are just whiny and annoying to me. I honestly just can’t stand this whiny, high pitched singing that these 90s bands were obsessed with!!! Please, cobain come and save rock!!!
I hate rating an album poorly because I simply hate the singing, but if we swap out the vocal track on every song, this could conceivably rate highly. Sadly, I just don’t want to listen to this. 1 :(
I like three days
Then she did… is kinda beatly but with their own spin? Is side 2 way better???
Damn I guess I was a hater? Upon a relisten I like it more. This is not a 1. In no way. Either a 2 or a 3.

This is quality. Idk if I’d call it super influential or worth of being in the list, but it doesn’t make me wanna rip my ears out like offspring, it makes me wanna run this back. If this was in the cd deck I wouldn’t be upset.
I see people saying this isn’t anything new in the “Washington sound” but I’m not super familiar with that aside from like nirvana and Pearl Jam (?) but fwiw I like this lol. Maybe just an indication I should check out this style more. Either a 3 or 4.
I’ll prolly look back and regret this but this is a 4, I like it!

How the ever living fuck is this on the list but eat a peach isn’t? Listened to both today, eat a peach is a master piece and I might consider giving it a five, this is also cool but for some reason I’ve always found it hard to really get into any legendary live albums, I like the refined sound of a a studio more I guess. This is good jam music, probably better than the dead, but I don’t find this stuff super weighty. It’s fucking great but I still think it’s a 3 based on the criterion I’m still developing. Sorry Duane :(
