Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Jan 08 2024

Rap music has several variations. Run-D.M.C. has a sharp, in your face energy, which I found too tense. Not an album I would listen to.

Queens of the Stone Age by Queens Of The Stone Age
Jan 15 2024

Do not like this album. Can't even identify the genre.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Jan 16 2024

Sounds like a garage band. Not much talent in this group

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Jan 18 2024

Good album with some classic songs. The Stones are a generational treasure.

Urban Hymns by The Verve
Jan 22 2024

A couple of good songs on this album.

Moondance by Van Morrison
Jan 23 2024

I had the great fortune to see Van Morrison live Slieve Donard in Newcastle, Northern Ireland. The concert was a 350 person dinner show. Played golf at the Royal County Down Golf Club that morning. Enjoyed drinks with our new found golf friends (also there for the show) after the round. That evening had the most memorable live show I have ever attended. WOW, what a trip. Van played several cuts off this album. This was a bucket list event for me. Nothing else is even close. When I die this album will be played.

So by Peter Gabriel
Jan 24 2024
Diamond Life by Sade
Jan 26 2024

What a voice. To quote Tom Waits says, "She's so good she'd make a dead man cum."

The Score by Fugees
Jan 29 2024

Interesting music. Some reggae, some rap and some old tunes done in rap and reggae. Worth listening to. Talented artists.

Savane by Ali Farka Touré
Feb 01 2024

Much like Baaba Maal, only a little more bluesy. Not bad.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Feb 05 2024

Boring 😴

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Feb 06 2024

One of two good songs on this album. Probably would not buy it but then I was never a really big JJ fan.

Paris 1919 by John Cale
Feb 07 2024

Okay, but a little boring.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Feb 12 2024
Dirty by Sonic Youth
Feb 14 2024

Head banging Head Banging head banging bed hanging ed bading bed wetting

Fishscale by Ghostface Killah
Feb 15 2024

Awful

Bad by Michael Jackson
Feb 19 2024

Some classics but overall an average album.

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
Feb 20 2024

Candlelight dinner with loved one and friends, enjoying drinks and listening to dessert. This album takes you there.

Country Life by Roxy Music
Feb 21 2024

Great group, not their best work.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Feb 26 2024

One of her best albums.

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Mar 04 2024

Okay album. Lots of "soundtrack" music.
