Licensed To Ill by Beastie Boys

First listen for this album. Several songs are familiar. I enjoy the percussive nature, but this is not really something I would listen to regularly, but hey, it's part of what I heard growing up.

Channel Orange by Frank Ocean

Smooth and creamy.

After The Gold Rush by Neil Young

A favorite from my teen years!

Cloud Nine by The Temptations

Not my thing.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads

I liked this more than I thought I would. I've never been a fan of this vocal styling, but I like the song structure and the music, especially the bass.

The Stranger by Billy Joel

Solid basic sound.

Live Through This by Hole

Not my genre, although I can appreciate the music, somewhat. I'm not a fan of that vocal styling. But I'm glad I listened. Now I have an informed opinion, instead of an uninformed opinion. There's that.

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins

Pleasant enough.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by Beatles

Brilliant! Creative genius. Great bass lines, of course! This was quite innovative for the times. Love it!

Crime Of The Century by Supertramp

Just Okay. Not a fan of piano-driven groups. Basic, but fine.

Nick Of Time by Bonnie Raitt

Not my favorite Bonnie music, but I sure do like her.

B-52's by The B-52's

Very much not my thing.

Hail To the Thief by Radiohead

Complex and interesting.

The Colour Of Spring by Talk Talk

Couldn't make it all the way through this. There are interesting elements, but that drumming style spoils it for me.

GI by Germs

Passed this one up. Tried to listen.

Boy In Da Corner by Dizzee Rascal

Not for me. Got about 1/2-way through.

The Wildest! by Louis Prima

Enjoyable. I've not heard a lot of this genre, but I do remember this name growing up.

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone

Some interesting stuff, but not my style.

Horses by Patti Smith

An important part of the music scene.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack

Unfamiliar with this group. Not bad.

Bummed by Happy Mondays

New-to-me band. Very long collector's edition album. Got through most of it. Okay.

Music From Big Pink by The Band

The Band is always a treat!

Metallica by Metallica

It's Metallica!

Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters

Not my favorite Foo Fighters.

Dirt by Alice In Chains

Okay. I've not heard much of them, so this was a good primer.

Melody A.M. by Röyksopp

Another unfamiliar band to me. Nice.

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan

Okay. I'm not a Steely Dan fan.

#1 Record by Big Star

Nice. Basic British Rock with familiar rock elements.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel

These guys are such an important piece of the evolution of music. A treat.

Copper Blue by Sugar

Another band I am not familiar with. Enjoyed it.

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin

The "screaming" album.

Isn't Anything by My Bloody Valentine

Meh.

Yankee Hotel Foxtrot by Wilco

Very nice.

Blunderbuss by Jack White

Love Jack White!

Water From An Ancient Well by Abdullah Ibrahim

Delightful.

(What's The Story) Morning Glory by Oasis

Pleadant

Peter Gabriel 3 by Peter Gabriel

I like Peter Gabriel, but not this album.

Odelay by Beck

Yep

Hypnotised by The Undertones

I've never enjoyed this type of music.

Blood Sugar Sex Magik by Red Hot Chili Peppers

"Under The Bridge" saved this from a lower rating. Not my favorite RHCP.

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman

Delightful.

3 Feet High and Rising by De La Soul

Very lively, but not my thing.

MTV Unplugged In New York by Nirvana

Okay.

Frampton Comes Alive by Peter Frampton

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz

Mellow

Hysteria by Def Leppard

Chore of Enchantment by Giant Sand

New band for me. Enjoyable.

Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space by Spiritualized

Zombie by Fela Kuti

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

Have always loved this one.

Pictures At An Exhibition by Emerson, Lake & Palmer

I like EML, but not this album.

Moby Grape by Moby Grape

Fun sound. I wish more of this album had been available.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour

Interesting and enjoyable

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys

Electric Prunes by The Electric Prunes

The drummer certainly has a POV.
