Echo And The Bunnymen
4/5
Not exactly my jam, but a good listen. If I need a melancholy album, this would be a good pick. I had a album from The Cure yesterday. To me this album fills kind of that same role, but I prefer this instead. A little more energy which was cool. But I probably won't listen again.

Hanoi Rocks
5/5
This kicks ass. Early punk energy. Adding this to my collection.

Sepultura

A excellent blending a traditional music and heavy metal. A mix few have ever even tried for, let alone achieves at this level.

Miles Davis
3/5
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.
Funkadelic
4/5
A fun listen. But I kept waiting for it to kick into high gear. But overall a very strong groove. More instrumental then I expected. I think Hit It and Quit It, was my favorite song.
Earth, Wind & Fire
5/5
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
4/5
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)
Beatles
5/5
A classic for a reason. Oh! Darling was my favorite. And Come Together, feels like the the prototype for Red Hot Chili Peppers song. Alot of freeform words and vibes.
Led Zeppelin
5/5
Alot more twangy guitars then I expected. Immigrant Song will always make me think about Nick Long. It was cool. But I think I mostly just like the singles. Would totally listen again. Great album.
The Cure
3/5
The band does a great job of setting vibe. It makes total sense why this is classic Goth/wanna be vampire energy. The instrumentals could be really cool. But the vocals did nothing for me personally. Overall, this albums not for me.
Echo And The Bunnymen
4/5
Not exactly my jam, but a good listen. If I need a melancholy album, this would be a good pick. I had a album from The Cure yesterday. To me this album fills kind of that same role, but I prefer this instead. A little more energy which was cool. But I probably won't listen again.
Marty Robbins
5/5
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.
Jurassic 5
5/5
Solid album. Hip hope doesn't really sound like this anymore, and I wish some of it still did. Positive vibes, solid group and a strong message. And the beats are dope.
JAY Z
2/5
Hov isnt for me. I found his brags and flow boring. Wouldn't seek this album out again
Depeche Mode
3/5
I haven't listen to much synth pop. The instrumentals where pretty cool. A lot of kind of darker energy. Policy Of Truth was my favorite song off the album. But overall not for me.
Gram Parsons
2/5
I already had a personal bias against Graham Parsons. So this album was never going to land with me. That being said, it's not without merit. However a wanna be sad cowboy is unbelievably lame. I don't believe in the stories he tells. I won't listen to this again
Prince
5/5
As a Minnesotan, I am obligated to love this album. Which conveniently I do. The man is a god damn vibes machine. Loved it.
Frank Sinatra
3/5
I get why to certain people Frank Sinatra is the epitome of cool. His generally smooth but also strong voice play so well, against the backing band, where the horns can strike like lightning. The song Anything Goes makes me think, one like at Cardi B would have given Frank a stroke. Would listen to some songs again
Creedence Clearwater Revival
5/5
We kind of music I enjoy most, has lots of energy. And Credence always flex their muscle and have energy to spare. Love the album already listened to the singles. Would gladly listen again
The Isley Brothers
4/5
A really fun mix of funk/RnB. Crazy good energy. Very much dig this
Lambchop
1/5
Hated this. This sounds like someone purposefully trying to make music for the backing track to a Frasier episode. Every song was to long for my taste, especially since they don't really go anywhere. The only song I would choose to listen to again is The Butcher Boy
The Police
1/5
The singles are fine. But largely I did not like this. The song Mother, is one of the worst I have heard in recent memory. I don't know how this was such a good seller.
Little Richard
5/5
This is perfect proto-rock-and-roll. I loved all of it. Never slows down, never stops. Full energy, 100% of the time.
Run-D.M.C.
5/5
This album kicks ass. And it makes me miss simpler rhymes and flows. RUN DMC can do far more with less words and simpler beats, then most people could ever hope to. The last couple songs drag a little. But overall, this rules
Peter Gabriel
4/5
I dig this. I think most of the credit goes to the band. It feels like the music sets a vibe and holds it really well. The singing feels secondary, but it's never in the way and it doesn't mess with the vibe. Overall a fun album
Robert Wyatt
1/5
I'm sure this music is for someone....just not me. I kind of Heaps Of Sheeps, and Blues In Bob Minor. Otherwise every song sounds like Joe Strummer And The Mescaleros, set out to make the worst folk/jazz hybrid you have ever heard. I almost did not finish this one. Would not listen again.
The Prodigy
5/5
First time, getting a album I already owned. Good fast aggressive rave music. Loved it
Stan Getz
3/5
These song weren't really for me. They set a decent vibe, but most of them felt like nothing. Don't feel the need to listen again.
Michael Jackson
3/5
He's not the king of pop yet. Still working on that disco vibe. Overall it's an okay listen. Probably won't come back to it
Fleetwood Mac
5/5
Dysfunctional people often make incredible music. Great album. I don't care for all of the softer songs, but nothing to complain about.
John Coltrane
3/5
I like my jazz with energy. And this album does a decent job of delivering that.
Elvis Costello & The Attractions
5/5
Loved this. Art dork energy explosion
Bob Dylan
4/5
A fun folksey album to get lost in
The Associates
3/5
Alvin was a little hit or miss for me. It feels like a slower prototype for the band Mindless Self Indulgence.
Portishead
2/5
Not really for me
Alice In Chains
5/5
Amazing haunting energy
Coldplay
1/5
I don't care for this. I'm sure their soft and gentle approach is for some people, just not me. Even the songs that build up a crescendo, never really cash it out. Not giving this another listen
CHIC
3/5
A little repetitive. But overall a good time.
Slipknot
3/5
A good album. I will still only really listen to the singles
Billy Bragg
5/5
Really enjoyed. Alot of my favorites sight Billy Bragg as inspiration and it shows why.
The Smiths
2/5
Not really for me. A little to melancholy.
Harry Nilsson
4/5
A fun listen. Sometimes felt like a long lost Beatle.
Deep Purple
5/5
It's crazy to me that Smoke On The Water is the big single from this album. Imo, it might be the weakest song on the album. It's packed full of good jams. A great listen.
Jeff Buckley
2/5
Not for me
Marvin Gaye
3/5
Good music to get lost in
The Band
3/5
Good. But not really for me.
Terence Trent D'Arby
4/5
A really fun listen. Between his vocals and the music he's got some muscle behind him. I dig it
Johnny Cash
4/5
Knowing this is his last album alive makes all these songs very haunting. There are more covers than I expected. But overall everything is very well done and a worthwhile listen
The White Stripes
5/5
It's everything you want a White Stripes album to be.
The Beta Band
4/5
A good, artsy, rock album.
T. Rex
3/5
Fun classic rock. But I probably won't come back to it.
Paul McCartney and Wings
4/5
I was surprised how much it sounds like the Beatles. But "bigger".
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
4/5
Good jams. This album feels like it flys by.
Gorillaz
4/5
A good listen, but some songs can overstay their welcome.
David Crosby
3/5
Some of these songs were pretty cool, some of them felt like nothing. It had more cool guitar then I expect.
PJ Harvey
2/5
Not really for me. Kind of a whiney grunge feel.
The Offspring
4/5
Good entry level punk rock.
The Dave Brubeck Quartet
3/5
This feels like music Frazier would call dynamic and exciting. But it wasn't really for me. I want more energy with my jazz. I probably won't come back to this.
Manic Street Preachers
4/5
Pretty good album classic alt rock feel
Fela Kuti
4/5
Really great energy. Loved this album. Although I probably won't ever listen to the big drum solo at the end again. Once was enough.
A Tribe Called Quest
5/5
Classic. Jazzy vibes, good rhymes. Will listen again
3/5
I wonder if I would like this more if I was from the UK. The jams where fine, but not really for me. I probably won't come back to this again
OutKast
5/5
Classic album. Full of bangers. The balance between Big Boi and Andre shines so bright. At first I wasn't a fan of the skits, but I do think it brings something to the album.
Blondie
4/5
The singer's vocal range/power kicks ass overall good jams.
Dirty Projectors
2/5
I enjoyed their more focused songs. But overall this album wasn't for me.
Joni Mitchell
2/5
I didn't really care for her soft jazz/pop/folk aesthetic. This wasnt for me.
Boston
5/5
Full of bangers. Almost no skips.
Jerry Lee Lewis
4/5
High energy classics that almost make you forget that he married his own cousin, who was underaged.
Gene Clark
3/5
Kind of felt like diet Bob Dylan. And a lot of the songs where kind of the same. Probably not coming back to this.
Sonic Youth
2/5
The songs overstay there welcome. And they sound like punk rock for someone who thinks The Cure is hardcore.
Björk
1/5
Not for me
U2
1/5
I've always thought of U2 as, self important, self righteous, faux revolutionary, wanna be, trash. This album did nothing to change my mind. How are you going to have a band member called "Edge" and be completely edgeless.
Miles Davis
5/5
It earns it's name.
Johnny Cash
4/5
It's very good. A little annoying that he repeats a song. And it kind of feels like once you've heard one Johnny Cash live album you sort of hurt them all. But nevertheless great work
Radiohead
2/5
Prototype music to disassociate to. Never feels like it builds to a crescendo. Overall not for me.
American Music Club
3/5
Pretty clean, straightforward soft / gentle rock. They really let loose on the song Bad Liquor, which is easily my favorite. It was overall pleasant but Bad Liquor is probably the only song I'll listen to again.
Dolly Parton
5/5
Amazing sincerity and storytell. Keep the songs short, sweet and focused. Gret all around.
Charles Mingus
4/5
Good high energy jazz. The last song is to long for me. But overall great energy.
Marvin Gaye
5/5
Smooth as can be. I really appreciated how much work the horn section did. Really lived up to the moment. Great work all around
Jungle Brothers
5/5
Great, conscious, afro-cenrtric, thoughtful raps, great beats and good vibes.
Van Morrison
4/5
A really cool example of a style of music that doesn't really exist anymore. Big band, big energy, powerful voice. Some of the songs go on a little too long. But that can be expected with a live album
Beatles
4/5
Good. But you can tell they haven't hit their stride yet.
Isaac Hayes
4/5
Good jams. It's wild how little Isaac sings. Smooth as silk.
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan
4/5
Great music to vibe out to. The songs go on a little long, But I think if I knew the words that would help that. Regardless good album
Hole
4/5
Good album. Courtney Loves voice kicks ass. Does a good job of conveying of emotion. And cool instrumentals. It makes me think about how unkind where to her in retrospect. Good album
Badly Drawn Boy
3/5
Good soft clean kind of gentle alt rock. A good listen but I probably won't come back to it.
The Avalanches
4/5
Strong, groovy, beats. Great vibe music.
Beatles
4/5
Not my favorite of their work but still a good album all around
Rufus Wainwright
3/5
A good listen. But I won't come back to it.
Franz Ferdinand
5/5
Good early 2000's rock. Solid album
John Prine
4/5
Great story telling. Good jams. A slightly unpredictable lyrics. A fun listen .
Nas
5/5
A staple of the genre
Led Zeppelin
5/5
A great listen. Good jams, powerful voice. Would recommend.
3/5
A fun listen, lots of energy but I probably won't come back to it
The Afghan Whigs
3/5
Kind of mid. To me it started out okay, but by the end it was a chore. I won't come back to this. It was all kind of too similar.
The Triffids
2/5
Kind of a chore not for me. It's spent too much time trying to sound big
Oasis
3/5
A good listen. But spends alot of time trying to sound big. The lyrics kind of get drowned out.
The Who
5/5
Good, But it doesn't feel like they've hit their stride yet. Some of the songs almost sound like rejected Beach Boys tunes. But still plenty of gold to be found.
Björk
2/5
I'm not quite sure who this music is for, but it's not for me.
Violent Femmes
5/5
It's weird, it's artsy and it kicks ass. They do so much, with so little. I love it.
Everything But The Girl
3/5
A "sophisticated" pop/dance album. If that sounds appealing to you, then you should check it out. But I won't come back to this.
Sufjan Stevens
4/5
It took a minute, but I eventually started grooving with the concept. Overll good, but I won't comeback to it.
The Incredible String Band
3/5
For a band called "The incredible string band" their flute/bag pipe players do alot of work. It was a good, old, folk album. But I won't come back to it.
The Roots
4/5
Good jams. Great music, strong lyrics. A lot of fun.
Can
2/5
It was okay. I could really groove with parts of it. But largely it failed to capture my attention.
Adele
4/5
Starts off so strong. I prefer the more powerful songs over the ballads. Good listen though for sure
LCD Soundsystem
3/5
The songs go on for too long. And there's not enough variation for me. I won't come back to this.
Devendra Banhart
3/5
Weird artsy folk music. Good if you're in the mood for it but I probably won't come back to it
Bob Dylan
4/5
Classic for a reason. Great story telling and fun vibes.
Sepultura
5/5
A excellent blending a traditional music and heavy metal. A mix few have ever even tried for, let alone achieves at this level.
Radiohead
3/5
Not really for me.
Beck
4/5
Artsy, weird and all around good time.
Fugazi
5/5
Solid punk rock.
Thin Lizzy
5/5
Peak Rock and Roll. A unchangeable amount of cool.
Dire Straits
4/5
A good chill classic rock album
The Temptations
4/5
Classic soul. Loved it.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
4/5
Really good balance of electric music and rock. Always love a female voice in rock.
King Crimson
3/5
I didnt really care for their jam band approach. Feels like several of the songs are to long, and don't go anywhere. I won't come back to this.
Talking Heads
4/5
This feels like the prototype for so many weird, funky, off kilter bands. A very fun listen.
Moby
4/5
I listened to the version that also had B-sides. And it was pretty clear most of them should have stayed B-sides. I feel like Moby always had an image of being soft. Some of the jams really challenged that notion. Good energy, vibes and grooves. Overall good. Just avoid the B-sides.
Jefferson Airplane
4/5
Pretty good classic rock. Just a little funky.
Billy Bragg
5/5
Great folk music, with heavy punk vibes.
Robbie Williams
3/5
Really great at that late 90's early 2000 thing of sounding "big". Really, really simple rhymes but the vibe sort of makes up for it. Decent all around.
ZZ Top
4/5
Classic, classic rock. Strong vibes. Solid all around.
Tears For Fears
3/5
Singles where good but, probably won't come back to this. If you enjoy tha new wave, melancholy vibe. This is for you. Not enough songs about big chairs.
The Waterboys
5/5
Great folk music. Some of the songs where a little long for me. But overall loves this album. I could hear their influence in so many other bands I listen to.
Bob Dylan
2/5
My least favorite Dylan album so far. It's felt less like storytelling, and more like rambling nonsense
R.E.M.
4/5
Weird, fun and kinda different from everything else. Would listen again.
The Byrds
3/5
It was okay. Songs where catchy enough. But I probably won't come back to this.
Robert Wyatt
1/5
I don't like being this blunt or negative in my reviews.....but....I have no idea why this is on this list. I don't find many redeeming qualities. I won't come back to this.
Elvis Presley
4/5
You can see why he was is/was a huge star. Although his cover of tutti frutti, was lacking in my opinion.
Kraftwerk
3/5
I felt like this was kind of mid music to dissociate to. I probably won't come back to this.
Hugh Masekela
4/5
Lots of good energy. I sometimes find jazz difficult to listen to, you kind of need to dissociate and let the groove take you. I also feel like it's hard to have specific recall of songs, because of their wandering nature. But overall a worthwhile listen.
Muddy Waters
4/5
Cool riffs. A powerful voice. It's exactly what you think of, when you think of the blues.
Otis Redding
4/5
Good soul. Lots of alternative versions/covers. All well done. Solid liaten
Meat Loaf
5/5
46 min of the best god damn music you have ever heard in your life. It's perfect
Morrissey
2/5
Very moody and melancholy. Not really for me.
Beastie Boys
3/5
More punk rock energy than you might expect from a Beastie Boys album. Good but not my favorite of theirs
Neu!
3/5
Pretty groovy. Didn't feel overly special. But a nice listen all around.
Portishead
2/5
Not for me. Not enough gusto for my taste.
Buena Vista Social Club
4/5
Even as a non Spanish speaker, this rules. The vibes are great. Good energy all around.
Duke Ellington
4/5
The last track is my favorite. Good all around but not my favorite.
Soul II Soul
2/5
Not for me. A little to repetitive and mellow.
Antony and the Johnsons
2/5
Moody and melancholy. Not for me. Just kind of a drag.
3/5
Pretty good vibes. Sort of a Latin jazz. Good, but I probably won't come back to it.
Al Green
4/5
Lovely, soulful jams. A good listen.
Shuggie Otis
2/5
It didn't do much for me. Fine overall, but never really hooked me.
The Cure
2/5
My favorite of all The Cure albums I have heard. Although that's not saying much, I'm generally not a fan of theirs. But this was good, the songs are kinda long for my taste, but this album has good energy. I still won't come back to this.
The Smiths
3/5
A good album. I think the last track is the weakest. I won't come back to this, but it's still a worthwhile listen .
The Rolling Stones
4/5
You can see why they got so famous. Not a lot of edge, compared to modern music. But you can tell how they where cutting edge for their time.
The Zombies
3/5
Good overall, didn't feel particularly special. But still A fun listen.
Michael Kiwanuka
3/5
A interesting listen. Groovy in a little different. But I probably won't come back to this.
Dexys Midnight Runners
1/5
I would have been pissed off if I spent money on this. It's basically a non-album
Public Image Ltd.
1/5
The lowest energy "punk" record I have ever heard. Did not like, won't come back to it. Just kinda boring meandering garbage.
Queen
4/5
Not the strongest queen album in my opinion. Still a pleasant listen. But won't come back to it.
Blur
4/5
A good listen. I'm adding this one to my library.
The B-52's
2/5
Weird proto rock and roll. Wasn't really for me.
Supergrass
4/5
Fun, lots of good energy. A good alt rock kind of listen.
Nina Simone
3/5
A solid listen.
Michael Jackson
4/5
The king of pop keeps his crown.
The Black Keys
5/5
A great fuzzy rock album. Will listen again
Public Enemy
5/5
Raw energy. Kicking ass with a message. This rules.
LCD Soundsystem
4/5
LCD Soundsystem isn't really for me. But I liked this album more then other I have heard from them.
Prince
4/5
Prince kicks ass. Never Take The Place Of Your Man, is my favorite. A solid listen.
Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark
3/5
Not really for me. A solid listen. But I won't come back to it.
Metallica
5/5
Classic metal. Would recommend and listen again.
Baaba Maal
4/5
Good vibes and energy. If your in the move for something different, this is it.
The Notorious B.I.G.
5/5
This rules. A classic for a reason.
Fleet Foxes
3/5
If your in the mood for moody atmospheric indie music. This is your jam
Klaxons
4/5
Pretty cool, sort of electro-punk rock. A solid listen overall.
The Cars
5/5
So many hits, you would think this is a "best of compilation ".
Lorde
5/5
This kicks ass.
Michael Jackson
4/5
The middle chunk of this album is great. In my opinion, it carries the rest of the album. The rest of kind of mid.
Van Halen
5/5
Incredible album. No skips, no misses. Such a strong debut.
Peter Frampton
4/5
Not exactly my jam. But a solid listen all around. Good vibes.
Fugees
5/5
Kicks ass no skips. Powerful in ways, other bands can only dream to be.
3/5
Pretty cool alt rock. But I probably won't come back to it. Still a decent listen.
The Kinks
3/5
Softer early classic rock/pop music. A good time, but I won't seek it out again.
The Strokes
4/5
Classic early 2000s rock. A good album if you're in the mood for that.
Sade
3/5
A good album. But I won't come back to this.
AC/DC
5/5
An album I already owned. And it kicks ass.
Manu Chao
5/5
Wild vibes. Loved it. All over the place, linguistically and musically.
Paul Simon
3/5
Okay. Not really for me. And after hearing the original, I can say they where right to change Me And Julio. The final version is way better then the demo.
Fatboy Slim
5/5
This shit rules. Energy and hooks for days. Can't recommend enough.
Beastie Boys
4/5
Not my favorite Beastie Boys album, but still a really good/strong album. Exactly what you expect it to be.
The Stooges
4/5
Good proto punk. I don't really like the 50 year anniversary edition. It features the same songs a few times. That got repetitive for me. But still a solid album.
Youssou N'Dour
4/5
Never heard anything like this before. Cool tribal vibes. An all around. Good listen
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
4/5
Bob Dylan with a distorted guitar. Pretty intense songs sometimes
Fleetwood Mac
4/5
Not my favorite album of theirs. I like Rumors more. But this is still a good listen. Tha drums get a little repetitive to me. But overall cool
The 13th Floor Elevators
3/5
Fun early psychedelic. I probably won't come back to this. But it's a good listen.
De La Soul
4/5
Funky raps. A whole different kind of vibe. More friendly and approachable in gangster rap. Good vibes for a good time.
Suicide
1/5
Not for me. The drum leaves were far too repetitive. It didn't feel like any of the songs went anywhere. I don't have any idea as to why this album is on this list.
Cream
4/5
Exactly what you expect from Cream. Groovy prog rock. Solid listen.
Public Image Ltd.
3/5
The best Public Image Ltd. Album I have head. It was a pretty low bar, but this clear it. None of the songs are to long, or to repetitive. I probably won't listen to it again. But I wouldn't skip this, if it came up on a shuffle.
Marvin Gaye
4/5
This album finds a groove and never deviates. The songs are really good, but to me, it doesn't feel like the album really goes anywhere.
Hanoi Rocks
5/5
This kicks ass. Early punk energy. Adding this to my collection.
The Clash
5/5
This is another album, I already own. I love it. Perfect early punk rock.
Fiona Apple
4/5
Chick rock at it best. Strong energy all across the board. Jams with some serious muscle behind them. A good listen.
The Mars Volta
4/5
This album was a trip. Feels like the kind of album you have to listen to the whole thing at a time. I can't imagine picking a favorite from this, you just need to turn it on and let the vibes take you on the ride.
Led Zeppelin
4/5
Not my favorite of there's but still a solid album. Sounds exactly like what you think a led Zeppelin album's going to sound like.
The Monks
4/5
This album sounds like the prototype for the Dead Kennedys. It does feel like the last couple songs, don't match the rest of the album. And where out there to try and make "normal song" for radio play/sales.
Talking Heads
3/5
A good listen, but I probably won't comeback to it. Fun, weird, artsy.
AC/DC
5/5
This rules. Everything you think ACDC sounds like is in here. A powerful voice, combined with absolutely shredding instrumentals. 10/10.
Carpenters
4/5
Soft rock isn't really my thing. But this is still very well done.
Sam Cooke
5/5
The best kind of early rock/soul. All the good vibes. Can't be in a bad mood, while listening to this. Added this album to my collection.
Elliott Smith
4/5
Not really for me. Feels very "of it's time" lo fi, indi rock. Not really my thing. But if you where in the mood for it, this album is good.
The Allman Brothers Band
4/5
Kick ass southern boogie. Who needs lyrics when you have 12 min guitar solos. The songs can run a little long. But overall still cool
John Lennon
3/5
This album didn't really do anything for me. It's good music. But not my style and I won't come back to it.
Talking Heads
3/5
This album didn't really do anything for me. It was fine. But I won't come back to it.
The KLF
4/5
This was pretty cool, elctronica/dance pop. Enjoyed this. Adding it to my library.
Lou Reed
3/5
A lot of bands I like list Lou Reed as a influence. But this album didn't really do much for me. Mostly a bit to slow and melancholy for me.
Jimi Hendrix
4/5
Really captures that jam band kind of feel. Songs flow one into the next, rarely feels like a break in between songs. A good time.
Prince
4/5
Not my favorite prince album, but still quite good. Love the opening lyrics.
Frank Black
4/5
This is more, my taste in music. Fun, angsty, high energy punk vibe. Adding to my collection.
4/5
Great high energy rock. A good album, and worthwhile listen.
10cc
4/5
Despite the production being dated, the music felt really modern. It wouldn't be out of place with much alt/indi kinda rock today. Good vibes.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
Pretty cool. Didn't feel overly special. Sometimes I don't get how the Stones got the "Sex, Drugs and Rock n Roll" tagline. Because a lot of it feels pretty tame. A good album, but I won't come back to it.
Iron Maiden
5/5
To no one's surprise, this kicks ass. Iron Maiden rules, and this is no exception.
Tom Waits
4/5
Working mans jazz. Strips away any pretentiousness. They songs all flow seamlessly. A good listen. It can run a bit long, but a good time overall.
Einstürzende Neubauten
3/5
Didn't really feel like music. Just sounds to disassociate to. Interesting to experience once, but I'm not coming back to this.
Van Morrison
4/5
It's a good listen. A little on the soft side for me. It feels like you could play this in almost any situation, and people wouldn't leave or be annoyed.
Yes
4/5
Cool prog rock. You don't hear people shredding on an acoustic guitar like this very often. A good time.
The Beach Boys
4/5
Not quite what I expected. Alot more mellow then you think of, when you think of the Beach Boys. A good listen, but it's not for me. Still worth a listen.
Les Rythmes Digitales
3/5
This felt just "okay". Definitely have to be in a dance music, techno kinda vibe. Probably won't listen again.
Gang Starr
5/5
The best kind of rap. Great beats thoughtful rhymes. Guru and primo are an all-time pairing.
Bill Evans Trio
4/5
I feel like a lot of jazz is very "full of itself". This felt like there was no pretentiousness about it. It's a good listen and makes jazz feel like an approachable genre
Common
4/5
I always dig this kind of rap. A little more artistic, and thoughtful. A good time for sure
Traffic
4/5
That kinda classic late 60's early 70's sounds. Not aggressive, just here for the vibes.
Cheap Trick
4/5
Great live crowd energy. The band really nails their performance. A good album.
Leonard Cohen
3/5
I'm really depressed "diet" Bob Dylan. Not for me. It's well done. But I won't come back to it
Herbie Hancock
3/5
Not really for me. It kind of sounded like a weird electronic jazz alternative. I'm not coming back to this.
Rush
5/5
This kicks ass. Exactly what you want from a Rush album. IMO, a 20 min song is a bit much. But they change it up enough, that it stays interesting the whole time. Great album
The Smashing Pumpkins
2/5
I think my review is bias, because I don't like Billy Corgan. But the hits are good, and the output is crazy. If you like this kind of sound, this album is PACKED full of song. But overall this isn't for me
Gary Numan
2/5
IMO, all the songs sound way to similar. That early synth sound. It's okay, but I won't come back to this again.
The Band
3/5
I found this to be pretty mid. Nothing really hooked me. Everything is well done. But this is very little for me.
Yes
4/5
If you want some prog rock, this album is for you. A fun vibe, but I would need to be in the right kind of mood for it
Eric Clapton
3/5
If you are into that 70 rock this is for you. It's exactly what you think an Eric Clapton album is going to sound like. So if thata the vibe you want, this is a great choice.
The Young Gods
4/5
To me this sounds like an early prototype of Rammstein .... except French
Holger Czukay
4/5
Good songs to vibe out to. Don't have to think too hard. Just go with the flow.
ZZ Top
4/5
A good album. Everything you want from ZZ Top. Most of the emphasis is put on the instrumentals. Good times.
Elton John
3/5
A very dense album. No fluff or filler. A little melancholy for my taste. But a good album lverall
XTC
3/5
I expected more energy from a band named after Ecstasy. It was okay, but I won't listen to it again.
Guns N' Roses
5/5
Some of the best work, of the 80's metal. Kicks ass.
Elvis Presley
4/5
A solid album. It's surprising how much Elvis talks about crying. A good listen, despite Elvis not really being my thing.
Metallica
3/5
I understand part of the appeal of this album, is that it's a crazy spectacle. Massive metal band, joining up with a major symphony. But this album felt kind of over indulgent. Just takes it outta me.
Ride
3/5
It felt like a less interesting Oasis. I won't listen again
The Style Council
3/5
It feels like they where trying to write song to be in the background of movies. They tried a little bit of everything, hoping something would stick. Nothing really memorable though.
Jack White
4/5
A good album. Exactly what you think a Jack White album would be.
Led Zeppelin
4/5
Everything you want a zep album to be. Good jams.
The Velvet Underground
4/5
A lot more tame then I expected. A pleasant listen. But not quite what I expected from one of the forefathers of punk rock.
Bobby Womack
5/5
This kicks ass. Really funky, soul/RnB. Loved it. A really fun listen
Iron Maiden
5/5
Great, but you can tell they haven't hit their stride yet. There was a lot less singing then I expected, for a band with such a powerful and unique singer.
Cyndi Lauper
5/5
The kicks ass. You can be the most masculine dude ever. But when Girls Just Want To Have Fun comes on, you gotta groove with it.
The Flaming Lips
4/5
This album was a trip. I think you have to listen to this album completely in a row. Trying to pick and choose songs, would lessen the experience. A strong album
The Fall
4/5
Added this to my collection. Classic old punk vibes.
The La's
4/5
A good listen. Didn't feel overly special, but still a good time.
The Jam
5/5
The Clash but for music geeks. A great album from a great band.
The Rolling Stones
4/5
Good, but when they start getting into more of the piano ballads, I start to lose interest. Just feels like those songs drag. But still a good album
Parliament
5/5
Everything you want from a funk album. Kind weird, talking about spaceships, but always keeping a heavy groove. Loves it.
Screaming Trees
5/5
A really good listen. It's very "of it's time" with its mid 90's rock sound, which is not a bad thing. They nailed the vibe. Adding to my collection.
Frank Sinatra
3/5
This is done very well, but I don't care for Bossa Nova personally. If that's your thing, this would be a great album.
The Gun Club
4/5
That cool early punk sound, mixed with some early rockabilly vibes. A solid listen
Kendrick Lamar
5/5
Very good. The pure poetry sections, make it clear why he won a Pulitzer. Love Kendrick.
Stevie Wonder
3/5
A lot less funky than one expected. A good listen, but it's all pretty tame. Not really for me.
Foo Fighters
4/5
A good listen. Before they became the big deal they are today. A fun listen.
Bee Gees
3/5
Alot less funky then I expected. This kind of older soft rock/pop does nothing for me personally. If that's your thing, give this album a listen, but I won't come back to it.
Daft Punk
5/5
This rules. Just funky beats and grooves. Even though some of the songs are long, the album doesn't drag. Spectacular.
Dr. Dre
4/5
A little overrated imo. Still good, it feels like Snoop carries a lot. While listening, I couldn't help but think about how Eazy-E had the better diss tracks.
Joni Mitchell
4/5
Not my preferred genre of music. Regardless, this is very well done. Slower/sadder songs. A solid album, if that's your thing.
I am bias against U2 so I was never going to review this album well. If they are your thing, go for it. But it's not for me.
The Blue Nile
2/5
This didn't do much for me. It's well done. But I won't come back to it.
New Order
4/5
Kind of felt like a really fun marriage of Billy Idol and The Cure. A fun listen.
Elvis Costello
4/5
Elvis Costello kicks ass. A unique sound, and extremely well done. Always loved his work.
The xx
4/5
Cool, kinda mellow indi pop/rock. I'm always looking for more female voices in music, and this is a good addition.
The Chemical Brothers
4/5
I feel like DJ/electronic bands, have extremely unique fingerprints. This band reminds me of The Prodigy. I won't listen to it regularly, but it's still a good time, if your in that kind of mood
Missy Elliott
4/5
Really fun. Alot of features form big names. All around a good time. Good party music.
Barry Adamson
3/5
This starts promising, but then kinda fell off, in my opinion. I won't come back to itm
Bruce Springsteen
3/5
Everything you think a Bruce Springsteen album will be. You can hear how he has influenced many people, especially bands from his area.
Willie Nelson
4/5
Willie does great, but this album didn't really resonate with me. Good overall, but just didn't really connect.
Alexander 'Skip' Spence
4/5
Nothing on the album really connected with me. Nice background music, but I didn't get much more out of it.
Milton Nascimento
4/5
Even without speaking the language this is really good. Good energy, cool music. And the number of listen counters do a good job of reminding you, of how much music is out there, that not America. Multiple songs with millions and millions of listens.
Slayer
5/5
Kicks ass. You all ready know if you like this. And I love it.
Blur
3/5
This was okay. The Gorillaz are definitely better.
Supertramp
3/5
This didn't do much for me. Would only listen for the singles, but even then I probably won't come back to it.
Janelle Monáe
5/5
Certified bangers. Added to my collection, loved thism
Belle & Sebastian
3/5
Kind of melancholy. It was good, but it's not for me.
Maxwell
4/5
The songs are a little long for me. A lot of songs in the six minute range. But a fun listen. I would come back for a few of the songs, but probably won't do a full listen again.
Simon & Garfunkel
4/5
A pleasant listen. Not really my thing. Although, I did enjoy the more upbeat songs. A well done album overall. Just not for me.
Duran Duran
4/5
Great synth/dance pop. Listen if your in that kind of mood.
Dire Straits
3/5
Built around a couple strong singles. A fun listen.
Faith No More
4/5
A really fun listen. Kind of a prototype, for the rap/rock sound that would become very popular for a while.
Green Day
1/5
I have a bias against this album and band. So my reviews won't be very objective. To me. This is just fraudulent punk rock. It lacks sincerity. But again I'm biased.
Fats Domino
4/5
"classic" in the purest sense. That early rock and roll. A very good time. Listen if you want that vintage vibe.
Bob Marley & The Wailers
4/5
Everything you want a reggae album to be. Exactly what you think of, when you think of Bob Marley. A fun, solid listen.
Echo And The Bunnymen
4/5
A fun album, with a sort of punk adjacent sound. A good listen. I had fun, but probably won't add this to my collection.
Pet Shop Boys
3/5
Synth pop vibes. Fun but I won't come back to it.
Genesis
3/5
Not really for me. It has good energy, but just didn't connect.
Lynyrd Skynyrd
4/5
Southern rock at its finest. No slips. Boogie all night baby.
Count Basie & His Orchestra
4/5
Wasn't what I was expecting. But good high energy. A fun listen
Ute Lemper
3/5
Heavy dramatic cabaret music. The list of people featured on this album is crazy. Worth a listen, but I can imagine coming back to this
The Beau Brummels
4/5
Some good energy on the album. That 60/70s sound, with a little more horsepower. A fun album.
The Cramps
4/5
A cool half step between surf rock and punk rock. I can hear how they influenced all the bands. I like. A strong album
Buddy Holly & The Crickets
4/5
Classic early rock and roll sound. Still holds up to this day. You can tell why they where as popular as they where
Leonard Cohen
4/5
If Tom waits had a smoother voice, it would sound like this. A good soulful kind of listen. Definitely worth checking out
Quicksilver Messenger Service
2/5
I found this album lacking. The guitars are cool. But it just felt like the drums and bass were on a boring loop.
Motörhead
4/5
Really like this album. Motorhead has a sound and style totally their own. I do think the music is a bit rigid, which is kind of a strength and weakness. It stays in its lane and doesn't deviate much. But it fully owns its lane. Strong album.
The Chemical Brothers
3/5
A little bit too repetitive for me.
Bob Marley & The Wailers
4/5
Everything you think a Bob Marley album is going to be.
Steely Dan
3/5
A fun listen. Cool prog rock, jam band energy.
New Order
4/5
Fun 80's dance pop. A good listen for when you need some pep in your day
Sleater-Kinney
5/5
I'm always on the lookout for more female rock bands. This is a great addition to the collection. Good muscle behind them, and a powerful voice. I dig thism
3/5
Fun, artsy and weird. Everything you think of when you think Devo.
Aretha Franklin
5/5
Aretha is untouched and unmatched. No one did it quite like her. Soulful power, while still feeling totally approachable. Like a strong and confident big sister. Love this.
R.E.M.
3/5
Not really for me. A little to melancholy. Well done, but I won't come back to it.
David Bowie
4/5
Solid album. Bowie has such a cool blend of styles and vibes. A really good album
Pere Ubu
2/5
I didn't care for this album. I love punk rock, but this album was a miss. Didn't feel like there was any real substance to it. I won't come back to it.
Jethro Tull
1/5
This album is overrated. The last few tracks where decent, but overall this wasn't great. Just kind of self important. I won't listen again.
Ramones
5/5
Classic punk rock perfection. This album is loaded with great songs. Simple three/four chord songs. But done with such precision. A great album.
Beatles
3/5
Didn't really feel like their best work. A good album, but they have made better.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
4/5
No one does it like Nick cave. Strong imagery. Cool music. Kind of mysterious. A strong album.
Neil Young & Crazy Horse
4/5
Solid jams. This album just flew by. Good energy. A very worthwhile listen.
The Icarus Line
4/5
A really fun album. That energy that you only get from noise rock bands. It can drag just a little. But overall a good album. Added it to my collection.
Dusty Springfield
4/5
Buttery smooth. That classic soul/blues sound. A fun album.
The War On Drugs
4/5
It sounds like really drawn out Tom Petty songs. The songs get a little long. But they keep good energy during those longer songs.
Finley Quaye
3/5
This didn't do much for me. It made me want to listen to better reggae. It's fine, but I won't come back to it.
The Fall
3/5
As a fan of punk rock....these songs are to long. I can't stay interested. After a couple of min they loose me. Definitely good, but their was a lot that could have been trimmed off this album
Derek & The Dominos
3/5
I don't like my songs to long. And some of these definitely went long. Nothing really jumped out to me, other the Layla, which is the best song on the album. I'm sure someone will love this album....just not me
The Go-Go's
5/5
Really fun. Kind of bratty, almost pop punk. A really fun listen.
Arctic Monkeys
4/5
A good listen. Fun alt rock. Lots of energy. Will listen again.
George Jones
4/5
Classic storytelling country. And vulnerable and emotional in a way. You just don't get anymore from the genre.
Stereo MC's
2/5
Idk why this album is on the list. This felt extremely mid. Some of the later songs where pretty good but mostly It was uninteresting beats and uninteresting rhymes. Won't come back to this.
Solomon Burke
4/5
Classic sounds. Very well done. Very strong album.
Rush
5/5
A really good album. Everything you think a Rush album will be.
Neil Young
3/5
Sometimes Neil's voice is very whiney And grating to me. And that definitely how I felt the first bit of the album. It gets better. But he sounds so whiney for the first big chunk of this album.
Keith Jarrett
4/5
This was the longest I have ever listened to a single piano. It was a good listen. At some point it felt like he was running out of Ideas and just started banging the same pattern on the keys. But it picks back up and was a fun experience. I won't go back to it. But it was cool to have heard once.
The Police
4/5
Cops suck, but The Police are pretty rad. Mostly good energy, music and vocals work well together. A solid album all around.
Dr. John
3/5
This was strange. An interesting listen. Definitely worth listening to at least once, just for the experience. I haven't heard anything like this before.
The Who
4/5
This album flows from song to song very well. A strong album. This album is worth a listen, even if you aren't a big Who fan.
Radiohead
2/5
I liked some of the more high energy instrumentals. But overall this isn't for me.
The Vines
4/5
You can tell just from the sound that this album is from the early 2000s. If you're looking for that kind of vibe, this is a good place.
Happy Mondays
4/5
I had no idea what to expect from this album. Fun high energy songs mostly. Just good enough to make it into my collection...for now....might change my mind later.
Kanye West
2/5
Alot more electronica then I expected. Some cool bars, but nothing really stuck with me. Black Skinhead was really the only song I would come back to.
Janis Joplin
4/5
Janis really puts some power behind her voice. A really solid album from a hippie icon.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
4/5
Nick cave is just plain cool. Rock roll and soulful. A good album
The Cardigans
3/5
This album was obviously carried by the one big hit. But there's still a lot of cool stuff in here, so I wouldn't overlook this one. A solid listen. You're in the mood for that kind of alt sophisticated pop
Steely Dan
4/5
Some strong jams, good energy, doesn't drag . Good all around. Some top tier white people music.
Love
2/5
Not enough "psychedelic" or "rock" in this psychedelic rock band. Everything felt pretty tame. It's not for me.
Patti Smith
4/5
Kind of reminds me of like a female, Nick Cave. Really solid album all around.
Stevie Wonder
2/5
For my taste, there wasn't enough funny with this album. Higher Ground saves it some, but overall this album left me wanting.
Ian Dury
4/5
I like this album a lot. Kind of a proto punk sound. A lot going on and good energy. Adding to my collection.
The Slits
4/5
A solid album. All the music was good. But nothing really sticks out to me when I try and remember specifics. Regardless, it's a fun listen.
Serge Gainsbourg
4/5
I wonder how much speaking the same language would change my experience. Regardless it's a solid album. Worth listening to at least once, imo.
Van Halen
4/5
Hair metal perfection.
Joan Armatrading
4/5
This album flows from song to song really well. Soulful but also a little funky. Definitely worth your time.
Leonard Cohen
2/5
I understand that this man is laying down some serious poetry. But all the songs sound exactly the same for the most part. It drags, you sort of wish something new and exciting would happen. I can't imagine anyone calling this. Their favorite album. Absolutely has artistic merit. But no overall I wasn't impressed
John Lennon
2/5
This was okay. Didn't feel overly special. I get why people would have been annoyed that Lennon was making this kinda of music.
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
3/5
I wasn't in the right mood to listen to this album. It's full of lots of slow, moody ballads. A good album, but you need to be in the right vibe to appreciate it.
The Rolling Stones
4/5
Full of good jams. Everything you want from a Stones album.
Paul Simon
4/5
Kind of soft rock vibes. A fun listen for when you want something gentle, but still has some energy.
The Stooges
5/5
Iggy and the stooges kick ass. Strong music. Strong energy. Pretty much perfect.
808 State
4/5
Solid, high energy, electronic music. Nothing over stays it's welcome. A good time listing to this.
The Beach Boys
4/5
I always liked how the Beach boys blend doo-wop music and the early infancy of pop music. A good album if you want to listen to some Beach Boys.
Sister Sledge
4/5
Solid funk. Powerful female voices. A solid album and a fun listen.
King Crimson
3/5
Some really good prog Rock. But I wasn't really in the vibe for it. It's a solid listen but I won't come back to it.
R.E.M.
4/5
I like this. It stays interesting, the music is fun, the lyrics are interesting. A good time.
The Sugarcubes
4/5
I found this album to be pretty interesting. Lots of good energy, a little chaotic, strong sound. I dig this.
Britney Spears
4/5
Bubble gum pop perfection. Not my preferred style or genre. But a banger is a banger
Nick Drake
3/5
This was okay. Not really my genre. Kind of a soft sounds. Not really for me. But still a good listen of you are in the mood.
Madness
4/5
Kind of like a off-brand, half step between The Jam and The English beat. Still a fun album.
The National
3/5
This was fine. The music was good. But the lead singers voice is boring. Its like he almost starts building to some kind of crescendo. But it never happens. This band has muscle to spare, but refuses to use it.
Jorge Ben Jor
5/5
I dig this. Lots of good energy. Strong vibes. It's not hard to appreciate this, even without speaking the same language
The Cure
2/5
Not really for me. To slow and the singer isnt my favorite. Won't listen again.
Led Zeppelin
4/5
It drags a little bit at the end. But overall it's probably my favorite Zep album. It brings everything you want from them.
Grant Lee Buffalo
4/5
Pretty groovy. A lot more energy and muscle behind it then I expected. A good album.
Black Flag
5/5
This is exactly my kind of sound. I already owned this album so I knew I would like it. This is just good. Basic punk rock. In one of its purest forms.
Bill Callahan
3/5
It's was pretty good kinda slow. A solid album, but I won't listen again.
Jimi Hendrix
3/5
This was cool. You know what you are getting with a Jimmi album. He's not my favorite but the jams are still good.
Red Snapper
4/5
I liked this. Groovy and solid energy. That funky dj sound. The kind of music that goes well with most things
Funkadelic
5/5
Extremely well done funk music. Fun song and energy. Good times music.
Pink Floyd
3/5
This was okay. Honestly felt over hyped. Not for me, but and some people love and
Miles Davis
4/5
As cool as it gets. Just full of vibes and energy.
Neil Young
1/5
I find Neil Young to be whiney and annoying. This just isn't for me.
Death In Vegas
3/5
This was okay for a while but I got bored with it. It's fine but it might not hold your attention.
Dolly Parton
5/5
This is so fucking good. The song Wildflowers jumped out to me. And the song Rosewood Casket is one of the most emotional songs I have ever herd. A masterpiece.
The Byrds
4/5
The was a good, wholesome, early sounds. I wouldn't listen to the album again. But I enjoyed my time with it.
Lucinda Williams
3/5
This was solid. I bet I would like it more, if I was from any of the dozen, southern towns she sings about. Imo, there is better stuff in this genre.
Beatles
4/5
I still think my favorite album is Sgt. Peppers. But this is also very good.
CHIC
3/5
This was fun. A little repetitive. But if/when the vibe hits, these are good jams.
Black Sabbath
5/5
Sabbath kicks ass. Spooky and pretty funky.
Queen
4/5
Incredibly accurate title. Didn't feel like an album. It felt like a whole production
The Who
2/5
So far this is my least favorite who album of all time. Not enough substance.
Suede
2/5
This was fine. I didn't get a lot out of it. Won't revisit this
The Fall
3/5
Good listen. The Fall are pretty cool. Probably won't come back to this.
The Velvet Underground
2/5
Meh.
Public Enemy
4/5
Public enemy rules. They are truly a one-of-one.great album.
ABBA
3/5
Not really my thing. If you're into disco I could see this being a good time lol
Elliott Smith
4/5
This was pretty cool. I enjoyed my listen.
The Dandy Warhols
3/5
This was a little hit or miss for me. Like higher energy stuff and some of it felt like it could have been cut.
Green Day
2/5
I love punk rock. But I do not like Green Day. At least this is before the big MTV sellout. Biased review.
2Pac
3/5
Biased review. East Coast, beast coast bitches
Dizzee Rascal
3/5
I find the beat really effects how much I enjoy UK Grime. This album was a little hit and miss. But overall a worth while experience.
Booker T. & The MG's
5/5
This rules. Great energy and grooves. Love it.
Little Simz
4/5
This album was a pretty good time. Went by fast. The tracks where a little hit or miss for me. But it was a good time listening to it.
Tim Buckley
3/5
This is pretty good. Not my favorite. But grooves but some of the songs last too long.
Ice Cube
1/5
It's hard to imagine this man would go on to be a kids movie star, and Trump bootlicker. The music is good. But I won't separate art from the artist.
Country Joe & The Fish
4/5
I really fell into a groove with this album. And the album moves along pretty fast because of it. Even though some aod the songs are longer, I hardly noticed.
Todd Rundgren
4/5
This was a fun listen. It felt like there was good variety on this album. Would recommend at least once.
Creedence Clearwater Revival
5/5
This almost feels like a best of album. Creedence rules all hits no misses.
Scissor Sisters
3/5
This album feels like it dipped between a lot of genres. Some like dance pop, some indie rock, some shit that sounded like knockoff Elton John. Just kind of all over. A good time, but I won't come back to it
Dusty Springfield
5/5
People wish they where half as good as this. Dust rules.
Radiohead
2/5
Radiohead isn't really for me. I don't like thor personal style in general.
The Doors
3/5
Solid listen.
Pavement
4/5
This album was pretty fun and varied. I enjoyed it.
Lloyd Cole And The Commotions
4/5
A fun album. But nothing feels super memorable. So I probably won't come back to it
The Velvet Underground
3/5
I have yet to be impressed by a Velvet underground record.
The Shamen
3/5
This was fine. It didn't really jump out, in comparison to others in this genre.
The Pogues
5/5
10/10 love this album. The inspiration for so many Irish bands.
Magazine
3/5
I would have liked this album more if the longer songs had been cut down. It kind of felt self indulgent.
Alice Cooper
3/5
I had never listened to a full Alice Cooper album before. But this kind of felt like it was carried by the single. Not a lot else felt particularly memorable
Scritti Politti
3/5
Felt like Disposable pop music
The Electric Prunes
4/5
That was really fun. Pretty groovy but with enough edge to it. I enjoyed this
Bauhaus
3/5
A good choice if you want moody rock/pop music.
Sparks
3/5
This reminded me of Styx or Devo. Or maybe just the weird parts of Queen songs, with out the epic singer.
The Sabres Of Paradise
3/5
This was meh for me. The music wasn't verified enough. Too long and repetitive for my taste.
Bonnie Raitt
4/5
This is pretty cool. Felt like a lot of the best parts of the female country powerhouses.
Jah Wobble's Invaders Of The Heart
4/5
A fun listen.
The Verve
4/5
This reminds me of an off brand Oasis. A good option if your in that kind of mood.
Simply Red
4/5
This was pretty cool. A bit of genre bending. An interesting listen.
Creedence Clearwater Revival
5/5
CCR rules!
Ravi Shankar
4/5
I liked this. Him sharing some techniques was really cool. He described Indian music as being similar to jazz. And I think that's a very fair description
Scott Walker
3/5
I like the last part of the album better then the rest of it. But overall this album is pretty skipable
k.d. lang
4/5
A really cool blend of country with some light funk vibes. A very fun album
Giant Sand
3/5
This was good. But only if you are in a vibe for slow and low.
Pet Shop Boys
3/5
Not really for me. That kinda of early dance pop. And it has the I'm Too Sexy, drum beat playing all the time. You hear it once and it won't go away lol
Don McLean
2/5
Without the song American Pie, this album doesn't make this list.
The Yardbirds
3/5
Steely Dan
3/5
You can tell these are extremely talented musicians, which always cool to hear. They keep it movin for sure.
4/5
The tail end of this album was pretty good. But I just kept thinking "I can't wait until he gives this up and forms Gorillaz"
Spiritualized
4/5
The started out like I expected. Kind of airy arts, and then it gets a lot more noisy. I like that part.
Simon & Garfunkel
3/5
I'm sure this is someone's favorite. But it's not mine. Doesn't feel like there is any hook to drive me back.
Rod Stewart
2/5
Rod Stewart isn't for me. He has good energy. Just not my cup of tea.
Fishbone
4/5
This album had sort of a weird balance to me. Have of it felt like pretty cool rock songs, and the other half sounded like the Seinfeld intro.
The Doors
4/5
The Zutons
4/5
I liked this. Definitely "of it's time". But overall this was a really strong early 2000's rock album.
Grizzly Bear
3/5
Buffalo Springfield
3/5
This was pretty good. Although I absolutely hate Neil Young's singing. But that's just me lol
Germs
5/5
Punk is my favorite genre. And this is a great punk album.
Paul McCartney
3/5
This album buzzed by pretty quick. It's didn't do a lot for me, but still worth listening to at least once.
The Hives
4/5
They definitely did not become my new favorite band. But I did enjoy their energy, and the music is good. Solid album
John Martyn
4/5
This is pretty cool. Probably won't come back to it but a fun album
Santana
4/5
Cornershop
4/5
This was pretty cool. A lot of big hooks and divers sounds. A good album
Randy Newman
4/5
I only know him from tv/movies. So it was wild to hear him singing some politically charges stuff. And I definitely never expected him to say the n word in his chorus. Over all interesting listen. It's kind of like watching Bob Saget stand up. Finding out there is a whole different side to this person.
Madonna
3/5
This album is so "of its time". This is absolutely what the year 2000 sounded like. Overall this wasn't for me. But I'm not exactly her target market.
Mott The Hoople
3/5
I feel like, I should like this a lot more then I did. It was good energy and good rock music. But it just didn't feel overly special of memorable.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
It's crazy that the first Stones song on the first album is so mid. Overall this was good and definitely showed peeks at the legends they would become. This album was pretty good, but doesn't really feel like a "classic"
James Taylor
3/5
I enjoyed parts of this. Some parts were to melancholy. But overall strong vibes.
Miles Davis
4/5
This album I'm was really good. I just get annoyed by long songs sometimes. So it wasn't the best for me people. But still very high quality.
Tricky
4/5
This was fun. Definitely worth checking out at least once.
Bob Marley & The Wailers
3/5
Sonic Youth
3/5
Kind of hit or miss for me. But a good album overall.
Adam & The Ants
4/5
I liked this. It kind of reminds me of the band The Addicts, except a littl more pop.
Brian Eno
3/5
A fun, kind weird album. Almost felt a little experimental.
The Jam
5/5
The Jam kick ass. A strong album from a great band.
Leonard Cohen

I think I prefer this over Tom Waits. But that same kind of vibe.
Solange
4/5
Very cool and soulful. I dig this.
Venom
5/5
This is exactly my kind of thing. Really liked this album. Brings great energy.

I can see why Sonic Youth has a strong following. A solid album.
Justice
5/5
This kicked ass.
Nightmares On Wax
5/5
Delightful vibes
Alice Cooper
3/5
Kind of overrated. Definitely feels like it was carried by the big hit.
The Soft Boys
4/5
Ali Farka Touré
5/5
This was cool. It reminded me of the blues, in alot of ways.
N.E.R.D
4/5

The Teardrop Explodes
3/5
Calexico
4/5
Richard Thompson
4/5
Ali Farka Touré
5/5
Reminds me a lot of blues music. Just thorough a different filter.
Ministry

The Pretty Things
3/5
Didn't do a lot for me. But still good if your into this kinda thing.
Common
4/5
Common deserves his reputation as a good rapper.
Air
4/5
Pretty cool
SZA
4/5
A really cool listen. And it's very cool to hear more women in hip-hop.
Orbital
3/5
This was okay. Not the best I've heard, but not the worst.
Sinead O'Connor
4/5
Korn
4/5
Jonathan Davis seems like he would be really lame to hangout with...but this album is pretty good. Even though he tries to rap a couple times lol.
Killing Joke
4/5
Underworld
4/5
Did a really good job of catching you in a vibe and keeping you there.
Aphex Twin
3/5
This didn't do a lot for me. I couldn't really capture the vibe.
The Residents
3/5
This was definitely weird and experimental. If that's your thing, check it out.
David Bowie
4/5
I really like this. The album flew by. And there was way more instrumentals than I expected. A good album
Goldie
1/5
DNF. I got bored and couldn't get through it.
Barry Adamson
3/5
PJ Harvey
3/5
This was okay. Fun but kinda mid.
