In A Silent Way
Miles Davis
I started trying to be an analytical listener. But quickly realized that was the wrong energy for this album. Once I was able to just kinda fall into the groove it was a fun listen. Although it felt like very little actual trumpet playing went down.

Earth, Wind & Fire
There is something really fun, about a large collection of truly excellent musicians. They have their vibe down 100%. The bass work is great in particular. And they are confident in who they are, and it rules. The album starts with what most millennials know as "the Superbad song". The album slows down a bit in the later tracks. But overall, I loved it.

Eminem
The man earned his crown as king of the angry white boys, and he proves it here. Some of the song go on a little too long for my taste. It also made me wonder, how he would have been with out all the homophobia. Because it's very prominent. I don't think he hates gay people or anything. But my God does he use it as an insult and in demeaning ways. Makes you wonder what he would have been like without it. I don't really care for the skits. But overall a good listen. I think Berserk is my favorite (big surprise there lol)

Gunfighter Ballads And Trail Songs
Marty Robbins
I loved this album. I think it's a masterclass in story telling. The music is pretty simple, but the lyrics are unreal. I felt completely engrained in each story told. It's wild how many people are shot and killed in these songs. It has to be over 70 bodies, just unreal. Songs about being hung for crimes are haunting in the best kind of way. I don't typically like country music, but the album is a gem.
El Paso is wild. It's on the album twice, the full version is 19 seconds longer. If it was important enough to be on the album twice....why not just have the "full version" to begin with.
