The Sensational Alex Harvey Band
4/5
I can see where Bon Scott got his influence. Decent album with a lot of flair.

Jurassic 5
5/5
Great album. It definitely brings back some early soul and hiphop vibes while also feeling like it could have come out yesterday.
Led Zeppelin
4/5
Good album that is an interesting ride. It starts off amazing, then ebbs and flows into various genres. Definitely a good listen, but not my favorite Led Zeppelin album.
Elbow
4/5
Good album from a band I had never heard before. Their sound reminded me of Coldplay at times.
Pixies
5/5
A terrific album from start to finish.
OutKast
5/5
Stankonia is such a great album. Outkast blew it out of the water with this one, and I remember so many people that weren't rap or hiphop fans get into it because of this album.
The Stooges
3/5
The album wasn't bad, but I felt like it could've been better. I ended up listening to both the Bowie version and the Iggy version, and I think the latter was better.
Songhoy Blues
4/5
Decent album regardless of where the band members would be from. Anyone that might appreciate blues, rock, etc. should appreciate a listen through.
Ella Fitzgerald
5/5
Ella Fitzgerald's voice can make any song a delight. This was no exception.
T. Rex
3/5
Decent album, with some groovy themes throughout. Nothing too memorable really, other than the one song nearly everyone has heard for some reason or another.
Aerosmith
4/5
Decent album. Not a massive fan of Aerosmith, but when their singles come on I enjoy the listen. The album has its ups and downs, but overall worth a listen.
Amy Winehouse
5/5
Great album. Amy Winehouse was so talented, and this showed off just a taste of her capabilities.
The Rolling Stones
2/5
The album was mediocre at best. We got Sympathy For The Devil from it, which just a fantastic single. However, it seems like everything was put into the single and the rest was just a tired attempt at adding fluff around it.
Bruce Springsteen
3/5
Not a bad album, but not great.
Dusty Springfield
4/5
Definitely an upbeat and fun album to listen to. Worth a re-listen anytime
Prince
5/5
The album has its ups and downs, with Prince playfully changing things up with every song. It never gets boring.

Beatles
3/5
I've never understood the appeal of The Beatles. I'm sure plenty of people have been influenced over the years by them, they're just not my bag. The album was mediocre at best.

Linkin Park
5/5
One of the best albums to come out of their generation, Linkin Park set a tone for what was to come, and inspired so many other bands that came after. It might have been Chester's softly spoken lyrics or his incredible growling screams, or maybe it was the infallible rapping of Mike Shinoda, and don't forget about Mr HAAAAAHN's incredibly scratching. Not to leave the rest of the band out at all. The group is wonderful and this album just pulled you in and made you feel that something special that they had found and were bringing to the world.

3/5
I'm sure some people love this album, however, it just felt all over the place to me, and some of the lyrics were pretty terrible. The instrumentals seemed decent. Tim Buckley had an amazing range, and it was on display here. You could hear the era of music come out of this record, so I would say to at least check this album out. You may love it.
