Jazz Samba by Stan Getz

This is a great record. Stan Getz is incredible, amazing tone. The guitar work is sweet too. Rhythms keep the whole thing groovin’

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake

One of the smoothest vocalists. Guitar playing is mesmerizing. Introspective and dreamy

Ananda Shankar by Ananda Shankar

Yeah I would listen to this again. Dang good

This is a great record. Stan Getz is incredible, amazing tone. The guitar work is sweet too. Rhythms keep the whole thing groovin’

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Feb 07 2024

Poetic visions take you for a ride. I like the dynamics of the songs. Emotional and punchy. I dug it

The Soft Bulletin by The Flaming Lips
Feb 08 2024

Texture Titans. I understand why fans say this is their favorite album. A band I occasionally dive into and am glad to come back around to them. They are sonic decorators/soundscape travelers. Wayne expresses it all so simply. Great work

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Feb 09 2024

Classic. Almost every song on this album was a hit. Great song writing and lyrics

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Feb 10 2024

Such a powerful voice in terms of vocals and guitar. I love the in between banter and the crowd reactions. One of the most influential and important blues albums

Parklife by Blur
Feb 11 2024

Ooof. This was a tough one to get through. Not my jam

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams
Feb 12 2024

There are a couple tracks I enjoyed. Her voice opens up further into the album. Sweet singing

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Feb 13 2024

Classic. Theatrical rock with Meatloaf belting it out. Interesting arrangements and backup vocals

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Feb 14 2024

Solid album. I liked the guitar tones and effects. Groovy bass lines. Tight drums.

Fever Ray by Fever Ray
Feb 15 2024

It was alright. Probably wouldn’t listen again

New York Dolls by New York Dolls
Feb 16 2024

This is like punk rock Rolling Stones. I enjoyed the energy on the songs. Wild and fun vocals

Feb 17 2024

What a wild ride. So many different paths to travel. Chaotic/serene. Fast/slow. Beautiful solo parts by every instrument and then collision of group effort. One of a kind

Forever Changes by Love
Feb 18 2024

Classic 60’s psychedelic album. I can’t say too much about it. It’s a good listen but I don’t often go back to it. I like the acoustic guitar and chord progressions. Solid

At Budokan by Cheap Trick
Feb 19 2024

Great live album. Amazing energy and playing by everyone. Got better and better as it went

Truth by Jeff Beck
Feb 21 2024

Jeff Beck doing his thing with great vox by Rod Stewart

Tracy Chapman by Tracy Chapman
Feb 22 2024

Solid songwriting. Important topics and messages

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Feb 24 2024

I haven’t listened to Dolly Parton very much. This album is awesome. Pretty funky bass parts at times and the songs came off as psychedelic rock/old country collisions. Wonderful singing of course

The Velvet Underground by The Velvet Underground
Feb 25 2024

Such a vibe. Pretty much perfect. Vocals are spot on and all the instruments blend so well. Very playful but very tight compositions

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
Feb 26 2024

Gritty and energetic. This is an album that has grown on me over time. I’ve tried many times to get into the Stones. I appreciate the writing and melodies they provide, yet are they a band I’d go back to listen to? I can’t say for sure at this time. I think they will eventually click for me. Either way it’s a solid album

Rhythm Nation 1814 by Janet Jackson
Feb 28 2024

A wild fever dream of intense over produced synth sounds. Intriguing though I must admit. Prince like at times but the instruments sound so tinny. It’s so weird. I like the vocals. Especially the harmonies and catchy double vocal parts/backup singing

Shalimar by Rahul Dev Burman
Feb 29 2024

This was pretty sweet. Fusion on top of fusion. Loved the arrangements and vocals. Will definitely check out some more R.D. Burman

So Much For The City by The Thrills
Mar 01 2024

Grandaddy mixed with The Beach Boys. Not nearly as interesting to me though. This was a hard one to get through for some reason. It’s like cheap indie psych rock. Looked up a live performance and was even more disappointed. Eh it’s okay

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Mar 02 2024

One of the best albums ever written. Pink Floyd are incredible sound appreciators. Such patience and thought put into each transition. I love the reoccurring themes. A tribute to a dear friend.

Toys In The Attic by Aerosmith
Mar 03 2024

Catchy riffs. Cool solos. This was a fun album to listen to. Sweet Emotion is one of the best songs ever

Third by Portishead
Mar 04 2024

Wanted to like it more than I did. I’m sure there’s a mood to be in to enjoy it but I wasn’t in that mood

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Mar 05 2024

This is groovy. I love the rhythms

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Mar 07 2024

So funking good. Classic

Swordfishtrombones by Tom Waits
Mar 10 2024

Experimental madman. Making sounds and going far out in every direction

Sound of Silver by LCD Soundsystem
Mar 11 2024

I randomly bought this CD a long time ago. I don’t know if I’ve ever listened to it in one sitting. It has its moments

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
Mar 12 2024

I really enjoyed this album. Sent me on a journey through more of their stuff and artists like them

Homework by Daft Punk
Mar 13 2024

I enjoy the production of this. Gets a bit repetitive but the arrangements are interesting

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Mar 14 2024

Hmmm yeah idk. Just for how big of an explosion this band had I’ll give it a 3. However, let’s subtract 1 because I think they screwed up the indie band influence for a while there

D by White Denim
Mar 15 2024

One of my favorite albums. Super melodic voyages. I could listen to this one over and over

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Mar 16 2024

The OG record. Somehow never really listened to this one but loved their following records. So raw. Simple at times but punchy and fun. Grungy and I don’t care who reads this I like Meg White’s drumming

Konnichiwa by Skepta
Mar 17 2024

That’s going to be a no for me dawg

Phaedra by Tangerine Dream
Mar 18 2024

Great music to nothing and everything too. Chill and explorative. I’ll probably check out more from them

Be by Common
Mar 19 2024

I really enjoyed this. Great lyrics/cool messages. I liked the live performance from Chappelle show towards the end

Mar 20 2024

It’s alright. Was kinda into the lyrics until he started saying some shitty things. Not as good as the other one I listened to

Close To You by Carpenters
Mar 21 2024

Beautiful voice. Top notch vocal arrangements. I really liked listening to this

Kala by M.I.A.
Mar 22 2024

I tried

Slipknot by Slipknot
Mar 24 2024

Not my cup of tea but the vocals are intriguing at times. Drums are insane/incredible

Ananda Shankar by Ananda Shankar
Mar 25 2024

Yeah I would listen to this again. Dang good

Murmur by R.E.M.
Mar 26 2024

So freakin’ good. Poetic and weird. One of my favorite voices

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Mar 27 2024

Flawless in my opinion. I love Neil.

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Mar 28 2024

Mmm yeah. Sing me the blues Muddy

Tubular Bells by Mike Oldfield
Mar 29 2024

Absolutely incredible. 19 years old when he made this…woah. This is a prime example of an album that should be listened to before you die

Station To Station by David Bowie
Mar 30 2024

Another home run from Bowie. Definitely an album of his that made me want to dive deeper into his music

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Mar 31 2024

Brings me back to when I was a teen. Lots of catchy hits. These guys were on a big wave back then. It’s a good album but I can’t get into it fully. All These Things I’ve Done is a timeless song

G. Love And Special Sauce by G. Love & Special Sauce
Apr 01 2024

When it first started I was a bit intrigued. Vocals got old pretty fast and kind of wished it was an instrumental after a while

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Apr 02 2024

I’ve come across this album before. Safe From Harm is such a groovy song. I like the song Five Man Army but other than that idk…it gets a bit cheesy for me. I always enjoyed the conspiracy that Bansky is the singer from Massive Attack

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Apr 03 2024

Super sweet. Love the guitar tone and the playing is top notch. Yeahhhh Mark

Call of the Valley by Shivkumar Sharma
Apr 04 2024

Mesmerizingly beautiful. I could listen to this every day. I wish it was more accessible online though

Strange Cargo III by William Orbit
Apr 05 2024

This was kinda cool. Tempos were all similar which at first I thought was annoying but grew on me over time

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
Apr 06 2024

Classic. Great production by Dr. Dre. Some of the lyrics were ridiculous but still a vibe

Melody A.M. by Röyksopp
Apr 08 2024

Uhh am I starting to like electronica music? This is darn good

Play by Moby
Apr 09 2024

This was pretty groovy. I liked the variety of the songs. Cool writing and sampling

I See You by The xx
Apr 10 2024

This band reminds me of an old friend who liked them. A decent group never really my full vibe but I like a few of their songs. I really like Say Something Loving on this album. They had sweet performances back on Jools Holland’s show back in the day

Hypnotised by The Undertones
Apr 11 2024

Cool riffs. Quirky punk with catchy vocals. I liked it more than I thought I would

American Idiot by Green Day
Apr 12 2024

Such a fun album. I remember seeing them during the tour of this album. This got many plays when I was a kid. I never got into much past this album but I loved all their others records

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Apr 13 2024

This album was huge when I was younger. Had its angst and appeal at moments. Now that I’m older it’s a little like woahhh is this what was going into the younger generations brain? Catchy songs, sweet vocals, I like the guitar mixing but damn it’s a bummer album

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Apr 15 2024

Such a wonderful dreamy vibe. I’ll be checking out more of their stuff

Surfer Rosa by Pixies
Apr 16 2024

Maybe their best album. So damn good. The Pixies always make me so happy. Such pure weirdness and no fucks given about how to write a song. I love this album

Fishscale by Ghostface Killah
Apr 18 2024

Great production. Killer flows. I enjoyed most of this

Apr 19 2024

Pink Floydesque. Chill stuff. Kinda weird. I’ve come across Air before. Interesting band

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Apr 20 2024

Such a cool voice. Great guitar tones. The jams are chill and spacey. 1985 language usage aside…it’s a pretty solid album. As a guitarist you have to appreciate the playing

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Apr 21 2024

Love this. Would listen to it again and again

Ellington at Newport by Duke Ellington
Apr 22 2024

A fun one to listen to. I like all the introductions and reactions from the crowd. Feels like a big party

Triangle by The Beau Brummels
Apr 24 2024

This was interesting. Not exactly my cup of psych rock but it has its moments

Apr 25 2024

Quintessential psychedelic album. This is the one that teleported people through all the sounddd mannnnn

British Steel by Judas Priest
Apr 26 2024

Not my kind of thing but I enjoy the guitar solos and driving drums.

Fragile by Yes
Apr 27 2024

One of my favorite albums by one of my newer favorite bands. So well written and playful at the same time. Beautiful work of art

GREY Area by Little Simz
Apr 28 2024

Couldn’t get into it Little Simz. I’m sorry

There's A Riot Goin' On by Sly & The Family Stone
Apr 29 2024

Always down for some Sly and The Family! Weird art funk. I love weird art funk

The Slim Shady LP by Eminem
Apr 30 2024

Dude. I remember listening to this when I was 12 or so at summer camp. Holy shit these lyrics are fucked up. I couldn’t get through two songs. Can’t deny the wittiness at times and catchy hooks but other than that keep your kids away

John Prine by John Prine
May 01 2024

A diamond of a song writer. The master of stories recording a pretty much perfect first album

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
May 02 2024

This was super sweet. I loved it. Awesome vocals and I loved the rhythms and guitar work. Cool stuff

The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses
May 03 2024

I really enjoyed this album. Psychedelic new wave. I like how Don’t Stop is Waterfall backwards with new lyrics. Great idea for a song

Debut by Björk
May 04 2024

Take all my money Björk. 1993! She was breaking the mold and making it stronger afterwards. I can see how this sound influenced countless artists

Fifth Dimension by The Byrds
May 05 2024

This is a quintessential album of the times. Such interesting song writing. Folky and spacey. Two things I enjoy

May 06 2024

I really like this group. It’s like a mellow/brighter Radiohead. Which led me on a tangent of listening to a ton of Radiohead who do it better/different. Regardless I dig the theatrics song crafting

Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes
May 07 2024

Only really know him as Chef from South Park but this was awesome. It’s like funk classical music if that makes sense. Would listen to it again

Maxinquaye by Tricky
May 09 2024

I dug this. Sweet music and the vocal tones were spot on. I would check this out again

Fuzzy Logic by Super Furry Animals
May 10 2024

This was a fun listen. Quirky psychedelic grunge pop. I liked how different all the songs were. Cool stuff

Frank by Amy Winehouse
May 11 2024

Beautiful voice. Amy takes you on a journey where you’re hanging on every word and feeling. Band is tight. Solid album

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
May 14 2024

Steely Dan is alright. Always enjoy the guitar work and drums in certain songs. Can’t get my into the writing too much though

May 15 2024

This was incredible. Moving lyrics and the music is pretty much perfect. I never really delved into her stuff but damn. New fan here

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
May 16 2024

Bruce brucing around. What a guy. NJ native. Grumbling and mumbling like the best of them. Jabs aside. It’s undeniable how great of a song writer he is. This is an album that will probably grow on me over time

Diamond Life by Sade
May 17 2024

This was pretty sweet. Definitely interested in listening to more

Bummed by Happy Mondays
May 19 2024

Bleh. All started to sound the same

Winter In America by Gil Scott-Heron
May 20 2024

As always powerful words from Gil. Never really heard him sing which was really nice. Tackling important topics and expressing the importance of love

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
May 21 2024

Incredible album. Quirky and heartfelt. I love how everyone is singing. Masterclass in songwriting

Mott by Mott The Hoople
May 22 2024

Rock and roll

Dear Science by TV On The Radio
May 24 2024

Always enjoy TV On The Radio. New wave/soul music!

Ramones by Ramones
May 25 2024

Good shiz. Punk pioneers

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
May 27 2024

Giving this a 4 for the arrangements alone. Not really into the lyrics or vibe at times but the brilliance of the creation is undeniable. It’s like industrial classical music

Who's Next by The Who
May 28 2024

One of their bests though all their stuff is great.

Cross by Justice
May 29 2024

I really enjoyed this. Solid duo

May 31 2024

G Unit in the house well not this house but definitely a house

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Jun 01 2024

This was super fun. Was captivated by every direction each song went. Melodic, trippy, punky, and some sweet tones and solos

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Jun 02 2024

Damn good. I need to give this another listen. Never listened to a full album by him and I see why he’s the GOAT

Roots by Sepultura
Jun 03 2024

This was badass. I liked it way more than I thought I would. Really dug the tribal rhythms and heavy riffs

Giant Steps by The Boo Radleys
Jun 05 2024

Wtf was this? So much going on. I think I enjoyed it though. So damn weird

Yank Crime by Drive Like Jehu
Jun 07 2024

Sweet art punk rock…post punk? Idk but it’s awesome. Some of these sounds are a bit ahead of its time. Wild fun guitar work

Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin
Jun 08 2024

Les Zepps. Solid album I feel like I need to give it another go. Something about them always loses me

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
Jun 10 2024

Smoooooth stuff

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Jun 11 2024

Such a swirly beautiful sound. Powerful words flowing through island vibes

Life's Too Good by The Sugarcubes
Jun 12 2024

So weird and fun. Björk singing her heart out with every kind of music fused into one

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan
Jun 13 2024

Some top notch musicianship. Enjoyed the funky parts. Not really a fan of the vocals or melodies/harmonies. It’s alright

Damaged by Black Flag
Jun 14 2024

Gritty and messy but in the perfect way. Henry yells it for all to hear. Nawt bad
