It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

1-Star Albums (10)

All Ratings

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel

Kind of exactly what I expected. Saccharin 60s folk with a political bent. I only knew of the big songs, but don't think I'll return to this one too often.

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie

Classic Bowie

Court And Spark by Joni Mitchell

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady by Charles Mingus

Wild

The Bends by Radiohead

I mean, it's Radiohead. Probably not the one i've listened to the most, but it should be in the roatation. 4.5.

Southern Rock Opera by Drive-By Truckers

I know I'm supposed to love it, but... some great songs, some not that great. And too long. 3.5

Purple Rain by Prince

Prince grooves. Sometimes his grooves are not for me.

Homework by Daft Punk

I feel bad even rating this one, as I knew it was not for me.

Dirt by Alice In Chains

Stone cold classic

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division

Lust For Life by Iggy Pop

Songs From The Big Chair by Tears For Fears

It's got some really great songs. In the end, not really my style. 3.5

The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald

The Blueprint by JAY Z

The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter by The Incredible String Band

I see why this Album is included in this list. In '68, it was surely a groundbreaking mix of folk, psych, and world music that inspired many many acts. That said, it sounded dated to me, and I did not enjoy it.

The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway by Genesis

It's fine.

Buenas Noches From A Lonely Room by Dwight Yoakam

My brother loves this album. Too country for me.

Metallica by Metallica

Nostalgic but boring.

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails

Nostalgic. Some of it still hits. Some of the teenage angst has worn off.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot by Wilco
