It sort of reminds me of a less dark early Depeche Mode. On the whole, not a bad album.

It's okay. I normally like most of Kraftwerk's stuff, but this was just okay. I could listen to it as it was pretty well suited to a background electronic ambience kind of situation. I doubt I'd seek it out of its own accord though.

I managed to listen to it all the way through, but that's about the best I can say about it.

A classic album. I like a lot of the songs on it, but while the rest is okay, none of them are really bad.

This is quite a delightful album of covers of standards by Willie.

It's a nice relaxed album with a couple songs that still stand up and have even had (less good) covers done of them.

Honestly, I'm not feeling it. Bowie's style, in general, just doesn't appeal to me. Sometimes it can grate on me, similar to Bjork.

It's a nice easy listening album. Probably not one I would specifically seek out, but wouldn't turn off either if it came on.

There are a couple good songs on that album that have become classics. Personally, I don't feel the rest of the album was anything I'd really seek out in the future.

This is an amazing album with a lot of classic songs. It's a high energy album that is just super fun to listen to.

This really surprised me. I like this album more than I thought I would.

I'm not normally a big Bob Dylan fan, and I groaned a bit when I saw this come up, but it was surprisingly good. It doesn't sound like the earlier stuff that I normally associate with him. It's very bluesy and I dig it.

I didn't know what to expect, but this was a delightful listen. It turns out it is a piano concert.

A nice "world beats" album by a guy I've never heard of. Totally listenable.

Personally, I'm a little hit and miss with The White Stripes, but this was a pretty good one.

I can listen to it if I have to, but I think I would normally change the channel pretty quickly if it were on the radio. I would rate it as mediocre.

Not a bad little album. I don't resonate with all the songs on it, and I think I prefer some of her other stuff over what is on this particular album, but overall not a bad album.

I'm not a super big fan of the punk genre, and this feeling continues as I listen to this album. It's not completely terrible, but definitely not something I would seek out.

I'm not sure what this is supposed to be, but it doesn't really stand out as being much. It's an okay album, but nothing to write home about. I can listen to it if I had to, but it's wouldn't be my first choice.

Initially, this album kinda sucks. If I get half way through an album and it grates my nerves every step of the way, I just can't finish it. I tried, but dang it sucks.

Definitely listenable. I tend to think of them as some of the original goth music, and it still fits, in my opinion.

This was a nice easy listening album. I could potentially find myself listening to it again of my own accord.

I'm going to put this firmly in the "Enh, it's okay" category.

Not a bad album. There are a couple of really good songs and the rest are pretty listenable.

It's not bad. I could listen to it if someone else wanted to, but I don't see myself seeking it out on my own.

This album showed me that I really didn't know much about Frank Zappa. It has a strong jazzy mixed with rock kind of feel to me. I may have to seek out some more of Zappa's stuff. I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would.

It's a great album and Sam Cooke is an exceptional performer. My only critical comment toward it is that I just don't typically care for live albums. I think it would've been better had it been a studio album.

I'm not really digging it. It sounds like a group trying to meld punk with 60's beach music (at times). Some songs are listenable, but in general, It's just not working for me.

It's okay. I normally like most of Kraftwerk's stuff, but this was just okay. I could listen to it as it was pretty well suited to a background electronic ambience kind of situation. I doubt I'd seek it out of its own accord though.

This is a pretty decent album. I like that Chali 2na is part of this group. I really like his voice and delivery. I'm pleasantly surprised. I like rap albums where the lyrics really flow with the music and not sounding like a train wreck like so much crap out there. Seriously, this album is pretty sweet.

I wasn't familiar with most of the songs on this album. It was surprisingly good. A bit bluesy with that early rock/r&b sound.

This only somewhat sounds like The Doors that I'm used to. Even still, it's not a bad listen at all!

Enh. It's okay, but nothing to write home about. I could easily live my life by not listening to it again and be okay.

I had a hard time with this one. It seems like it wants to be a rock band with a bunch of needless noise at times. I just couldn't finish it.

There are a handful of quite good songs on this album, but mixed in with some other stuff that I'm not terribly fond of. This would definitely be an album that, if I were to buy it, would prefer to buy only the songs that I'm actually interested in and skip the rest.

Classic AC/DC. I dig it.

Other than the song "Every Breath You Take" and a couple others, this wasn't a very good album on the whole.

I didn't know what to expect, but this was a pleasant album to listen to. Very relaxed. I'm not sure if it's something I'd intentionally seek out, but I would have no problem listening to it again.

It's the album "Paint it Black" is on. While that song is a classic, the rest of the album is just okay.

This was a surprisingly chill album. Not very long and an easy listen.

Very jazzy. Not bad, but, in my opinion, not super exceptional either. That being said, it still wasn't a bad listen.

It wasn't bad, but I didn't notice anything super exceptional either.

This was a really nice album. I could totally listen to this any time.

I'm not really a fan of this one. Some heavy metal is pretty good, and this had a couple decent songs, but I didn't care for most of it.

For a David Bowie album, it was pretty decent. I'm sure it goes into a whole story that I was unable to truly appreciate due to listening to it at work, but from a musicality standpoint, it wasn't a bad listen.

This turned out to be a really good album. I'm glad to have discovered it!

I really have no clue what I just listened to. While not the worst thing I've ever listened to, I definitely won't be seeking it out again in the future.

This was a delightful album. I could definitely listen to it again!

This turned out to be a pretty decent album. A folk rock with a Scottish feel to it.

This was pretty good. I had only heard of the group The Band, but wouldn't have been able to name any songs specifically. All in all, a pretty good album.

I actually really do enjoy this album. I consider it one of my guilty pleasures. A lot of people may not care for her style, but you cannot deny that she has an awesome voice!

This is a nice, solid classic rock album.

It's not a terrible album. Very much a product of the 60s British Rock invasion sound. I don't know if I'd purposefully seek it out again, but it wasn't bad.

It's really nothing special. Not particularly good, but also not particularly bad. I can listen to it, but there really isn't anything there to really reach out to me to bring me back in after this initial listen.

I've never actually listened to a Black Sabbath album all the way through before even though I was familiar with them and a number of their songs. This turned out to be a pretty good album and is the one on which the song Iron Man debuted.

It's a good, easy listening album, if you like reggae. Had some classics on there.

It was surprisingly not bad. Probably not going to seek it out again, but would definitely listen to it.

This is a pretty good classic rock album and the source of a few songs that I was aware of, but wasn't aware of who sang them. All in all, pretty good stuff.

I wasn't aware of most of the songs on this album, but, overall, it was a pleasant album to listen to. I think I was more aware of the '70s disco side of the Bee Gees and less of this side of them. It was quite nice!

Not gonna lie, I did not expect to like this album. To my amazement, it turned out to be a really good one. Each song tells a detailed story. Maybe it's just a difference of country and western songs from the '50s versus today? Now, I don't know if I would seek it out again, but I really did enjoy it.

I don't think I've heard this album in its entirety before, but it has some classics on it like "Me and Julio down by the schoolyard". I would totally listen to it again!

This album was better than I was anticipating it to be. Quite listenable.

Good album. Very easy to listen to and is classic Pink Floyd.

It sort of reminds me of a less dark early Depeche Mode. On the whole, not a bad album.

Not a bad album. It's the source of the song Kashmir. I'm not sure if it's my favorite Led Zeppelin album, but it's pretty decent.

That was one of the better David Bowie albums I've listened to. It also showed me that I never knew who actually sang the song "Changes" until I heard it on this album.

As with most Beach Boys albums, it was pretty decent.

This was a pretty good album with a lot of classic The Doors songs!

This was a fun album. Classic hip-hop and funk.

There are a couple good songs on here. Not a bad listen.

Not a bad album. I was really surprised to hear a classical piece as well as what sounds something like a classical acoustic guitar piece (Mood for a Day), which I happened to really like.

I like this better than I thought I would. While I doubt I will seek it out again in the future, it wasn't a bad background listen.

I didn't realize this was by the same artist who was the vocals for the Knife. I can see how it might not be for everyone, but I rather like it.

I'm really not feeling this one. It definitely has what might be considered a strong emo/goth sound. That can be okay sometimes, but it's not my everyday kind of listen. In fact, the more I listen to it, the less I care for it.

A pretty good listen.

Classic Talking Heads sound. On the whole, it's not really my thing, but it's also not that bad either. I could listen to it again.

I had never listened to the whole album before, but I do like the title track. Overall, a decent album.

I rather like this album. I don't think I had ever heard of it before, but I really dig it. The more I listen to it, the more I like it! Solid.

Classic Public Enemy. That goes back a ways. Still not a bad listen after all these years.

Classic Hendrix. Always a timeless listen.

This was a good album. Cohen's songs have such a story-telling kind of feel to them.

All in all, a decent album and the source of two everlasting songs by them: "It's the End of the World as we Know It" and "The One I Love".

It's a catchy album, and I see why it's very popular, but I personally have a problem with the level of violence portrayed.

I don't know why I was surprised, but this turned out to be a very listenable album. I wouldn't object if it came back up again in my listening.

A few good songs on there, but I realized by listening to it, that I didn't care for the songs that didn't actually make it to the radio.

All in all, a good album. I only recall being familiar with "Sunday Bloody Sunday", but this was a solid album.

This was a good album. I hadn't listened to the entire thing before, so I was pleasantly surprised to find the entire album is easy to listen to.

Now that is the sound of a specific point in time right there. All in all, not a bad album.

I couldn't finish it....

This is a nice easy listening album. Nothing in particular really stands out to me, but I could easily listen to this just about any time.

Will I listen to it again? Probably not. However, it wasn't bad. "Pinball Wizard" was the best song on the album, when listening to it from a straight music standpoint. But, seeing as how the entire album is a story from beginning to end, it's best to treat it as the soundtrack to a Rock Opera.

When this album first came out I wasn't a fan, but I've grown to really like it.

For a metal album, it's not bad. It's just not my style.

Not a bad album. There were a couple good songs on it. I wouldn't go to it for a regular listen, but if it was playing I wouldn't object.

This has quite a few good songs on it.

Not what I expected at all, but not a bad album. Very chill.

This is a great album if you like Metallica. In general though, I really do like the fusion between orchestral work and metal.

It's just a great album. It's hard to beat Queen when it comes to musical performance.

There are a couple good songs on here like "Blister in the Sun" and "Gone Daddy Gone", but most of the rest of it isn't anything to write home about.

Great album, like almost everything by Prince.

It's a great album.

I had never heard of these guys, but this was a surprisingly delightful album.

It's okay. It's just a bit *too* 80's "adult contemporary" for my taste.

It's okay. I can listen to it as background music, but there really isn't anything special about it.

Not a bad Motown album, although I'm not sure it's the best I've heard by the Temptations.

All in all, not a terrible album. It's nothing special, but it could make for decent background music.

It's.... um... different. Not terrible, but also a bit on the avant-garde style of things for my personal preference.

It's a good album that really shows his style. I just have to be in the right mood to listen to it.

I had a hard time getting through it, but managed. I can sort of see how it might appeal to a certain group of people, but not enough to see how it would show up on a list of albums one must listen to before they die...

Not a bad album. I think some of these older live albums are better than more modern live albums.

I've never listened to this whole album before. It's actually pretty decent. Quite pleased.

I managed to listen to it all the way through, but that's about the best I can say about it.

I was surprised at this one. Not a bad album to listen to. I could listen to it again, but still probably wouldn't seek it out specifically. All in all though, from a group I've never heard of, it was decent.

I was pleasantly surprised by this album. In general, I'm not a huge The Cure fan, but this was quite decent.

All in all, I enjoy this album.

I'm not feeling this one so much. I can get through it, but it's definitely not something I would find myself coming back to.

All in all, this was a surprisingly decent album! I could listen to it again.

Not a bad album to listen to.

It's Miles Davis, I mean come on. Of course it's good!

I'm sure this is a perfectly fine album, but I'm just not feeling it.

I had a hard time with the unnecessary profanity... That, and the terrible clash between the rhythm of the lyric and the backing music.

It was a nice, relaxing, and chill album. I didn't find anything super special that stood out, but it is really good to have as something playing that isn't too intrusive.

So, I understand that a lot of people like to hate on Taylor Swift, but I actually enjoyed this album. Will it be my go-to? Probably not, but there are a lot of catchy songs there.

Not a bad album. I could listen to it again, but I most likely wouldn't seek it out just because.

It's a nice chill, soulful album. He has a great voice.

It's.... okay... Not as good as some of her other stuff.

I mean, it's Billie Holiday!

Not terrible, but, probably not going to seek it out of my own accord.

It's okay. In general, I'm not a big fan of most live albums and this is no exception. I don't see myself seeking this out one again.

This was quite a good album and is the source of a lot of their classics.

I was a little afraid about this one going into it. It's not what I was expecting at all and was pretty decent.

Overall, a good album. I knew more songs on this album than I thought I did.

It's not a bad album, but I just don't see myself seeking it out again in the future.

It was a good album with a few really catchy tunes!

Honestly, not feeling it....

Not too bad.

It's a classic album that I'm really surprised to realize that I hadn't listened all the way through before today....

Well that's a classic 50s album for ya!

A couple classics that bring back some memories (e.g., Shout). Not a bad album, all in all.

Wow, I didn't realize how many well-known songs came from this album.

I like this album a lot more than I thought I would, especially with Jah Wobble's connection with Public Image Ltd (which I don't personally care for).

This was pretty good. I would totally listen to this again.

I do believe I like this album more than their studio work.

It definitely screams early 80s. It's fine, but nothing super fantastic, in my opinion.

It's okay.

Not a big fan, but there have been worse selections from this site.

I actually enjoyed this album more than I thought I would.

Better than I expected.

I enjoyed this far more than I thought I was going to.

If you want a good metal album, it's hard to go wrong with this one. I think I like it better than their first one.

It's not bad. I can see why people who really like Rush like them though. They have a distinct feel.

Better than I expected, but I would still put it in the "comfortable background music" category.

I've never really been a big fan of hers. This album is just mediocre, although it's better than some of the other albums I've been given from this site.

This album kind of sucks. It's somewhat saved by the songs Wonderwall and Champagne Supernova, but only barely.

Definitely some goth rock. Not terrible, but not my first choice of listening.

I liked this album more than I thought I would.

This was a surprisingly enjoyable album from a guy I hadn't previously heard of!

I wasn't sure what to expect, and I'm still not entirely sure how I feel about it.

It's not terrible.

Not a huge fan, but it's better than some of the other punk albums I've listened to.

This is a great album!

I still feel this is one of Metallica's best albums.

That was a really quite nice album!

There were a few good songs on it, but a lot of it just didn't connect with me.

This was a nice, chill album.

Not at all what I expected, but was a pleasant album.

Not as bad as I initially feared, but also not something I would listen to on my own.

Not bad at all.

I enjoyed it more than I thought I would.

Not my normal fair, but it's not bad.

On the whole, not my favorite Queen album.

It's not bad, but probably won't seek it out again.

This wasn't bad. Much better than I expected it to be!

In general, I find Morrissey to be a little on the whiny side, and this didn't do anything to quell that thought pattern.... I could listen to if it I didn't have a choice, but I definitely wouldn't seek it out of my own accord.

Not my normal listening fair, but it is a solid album.

It's alright.

I rather enjoyed the flow and feel of this. I think some of his later work is better, but this was enjoyable.

In general I'm not a huge Beatles fan, but this wasn't a bad album at all.

The album itself had a definite feel to it that screamed of a particular era in time. It also created a quite nice Spotify session that followed.

Enh... I'm just not a big Radiohead fan and this album didn't do anything to change my perception of them.

It's a great album!

Anything from ZZ Top is fun

I'm not entirely certain what I just listened to. If it happened to be playing somewhere I could listen to it, but I don't first myself seeking it out again. Not sure why it's on this list.

Very much the sound of an era. Fun to listen to, even if I probably won't seek it out again

Enh, it's okay.

Lots of classic songs on this. Not bad at all.

In general, I rather like CCR's sound, and this album does not change that opinion.

Not the worse Radiohead album I've listened to, which was nice.

Some of the best song titles I've ever seen, but the album itself was just so-so.

I had a hard time getting through this and was glad it was only 37 minutes long... I normally like the particular style this would fall under, but this particular album really grated on my nerves for some reason.

This was quite a nice album. I was only familiar with a few songs by Dire Straits, and it turns out they were all from this album.

It's alright. Very emo/goth sounding to my ears, which isn't a bad thing. It's just not my listening mood right at this moment.

I hate to say it, but I can see why "Take on Me" is the only song on this album that made it big...

This was a rather pleasant album!

I didn't have high hopes going into it, but it turned out to be a pretty decent easy listening album. Would I seek it as as a primary listen? Probably not, but I wouldn't object to it being on.

Not my normal listening fair, but not terrible.

I really don't understand why so many albums from PiL are on this list.... They're just not that good, and I couldn't even force myself to listen to this one all the way through.

Pretty decent, but maybe not my favorite Zeppelin album.

It's super catchy, but maybe not super work-appropriate, ha!

I like it better than some of the other David Bowie albums I've been given so far, so that's a plus.

I'm not real sure what to think about this, but I kind of enjoyed it in a way that I did not expect.

I rather like Clapton's bluesy kind of sound, so I dig it

I was pleasantly surprised by this one! I wasn't really aware that Dennis Wilson was one of the Beach Boys or that any of them had solo careers other than Brian Wilson. I'm quite pleased with this selection.

I don't normally consider myself a Green Day fan, but this album was quite good!

It's alright. Nothing super spectacular, but also not terrible.

It's alright. There were a couple good songs on there, but nothing to really make me want to listen to it again.

This was a nice relaxing album. I could totally listen to it again, but I doubt I would seek it out of its own accord.

In general, I like Neil Young's sound most of the time. It's nice for a casual listen in the background.

I really wish this site would stop handing out David Bowie albums...

I really wasn't sure to expect since I only knew a little bit about the Isley Brothers, but this was a pretty solid listen.

I like it.

This is just a good album.

It really is a classic album with a lot of great songs on it.

Overall a pretty good album with some classics and a couple others that still sound just a little unpolished.

There are a couple good songs, but it's not my favorite Hendrix album.

They have nice harmonies, but it's really not my style. That twangy religious music doesn't do it for me.

I just don't know how to describe this album. It's like some strange amalgamation of movie soundtrack, show tunes, and Tom Jones.

This was a pretty decent album and the source of several singles that I didn't realize came from the same album.

I've never heard this album before. It's not bad at all. And, honestly, not what I expected.

It definitely has a feel of a particular era.

It's an easy listening album

Enh, it's okay.

I mean, it's Muddy Waters. Why wouldn't it be good?

I had never heard of this group before, but they're not bad.

Great album!

Not my normal listening fair, but not bad.

It's.... alright.

This is just an amazing album and never gets old.

This really was a quite good album.

It's Dave Brubeck, of course it's awesome!

Not bad

It's alright. Very low key and great for music in the background. Not sure if I'd listen to it again though.

That's a great Count Basie album. It's hard to go wrong with him.

Honestly, this was better than I was expecting going into it.

I didn't realize how many songs I knew on this album. It really is an amazing and classic album!

It started off strong, but then dwindled pretty quickly by the end.

Really not feeling this one. Her stuff with the Fugees was much better.
