Bullshit. Terrible album. Terrible band

Morrison Hotel by The Doors
Jan 08 2024

Some iconic songs - some other not so iconic songs. Could tell this was the turn of the decade. Decent album - glad i listened to it. Would like to own it on vinyl

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading

Amazing lead off track. Good follow up Love her voice. Love the sound - soulful, folky and layered. Insane guitar work. Like fire. Musically superior album

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Jan 10 2024

I always assumed Dusty Springfield was a country singer. I was stupidly mistaken. The first three tracks instantly made me assume I was listening to Adelle and Amy Winehouses' inspiration. Timeless sound.

Aftermath by The Rolling Stones
Jan 12 2024

Bullshit. Terrible album. Terrible band

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Jan 15 2024

Awesome lead of track. The rest of the album was uninspiring and derivative. Beautiful voice and sound but nothing new or unique

Underwater Moonlight by The Soft Boys
Jan 18 2024

I would have rated this album a 3 but it was 2.5 hours long. Who do they think they are. No thanks.

Paul's Boutique by Beastie Boys
Jan 19 2024

Unparalleled perfection!!! No notes. One of THE BEST albums PERIOD

Metallica by Metallica
Jan 29 2024

Amazing iconic metal album

C'est Chic by CHIC
Feb 02 2024

Absolute garbage. I don’t care how catchy you think a song is. . . There is no good reason that a pop disco songs needs to go on for more than 3 minutes- let alone almost 6. The lead off track to this album is complete trash. Sounds like it was written and recorded by 3rd graders. So many songs that I had to skip because they were completely unpalatable. This album made me seriously question the taste and sanity of the author of this book as well as life itself. I am terrified that Chic Cheer is going to haunt my psyche for years to come and end up being my ultimate demise as though it were some demonic ring-like track. Never again.

Are You Experienced by Jimi Hendrix
Feb 05 2024

Some amazing guitar classics. A few too many mediocre unremarkable tracks to give it a 5

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly
Feb 07 2024

I listened to this album once 20 years ago. Now I remember why I only listened to it once. Over rated. Horrible album - it literally has ONE good song on it and it's the LAST SONG. And that ONE good song - goes on for SEVENTEEN MINUTES. EXCESSIVE AND UNNECESSARY Everything on this album is repetitive and mind-numbing. Skip fest.

25 by Adele

Greetings From L.A. by Tim Buckley
Feb 09 2024

Great start to the album but everything after that was crap. Music is decent but the lyrics are problematic and derivative of other artists. Van Morrison comes to mind. Not a great album. Not sure why it’s on the list. Definitely one of many that could have been edited. I truly believe that this list could have been paired down to 555 songs.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Feb 14 2024
Calenture by The Triffids
Feb 15 2024

Complete garbage

Odelay by Beck
Feb 21 2024

One of the best albums of the 90s. Innovative and original. A complete masterpiece.
