Who's Next by The Who
Jan 07 2024

Great album, never listened to it all the way through. Really rockin'. Favorite tracks were 'Bargain', 'Getting in Tune', and 'Won't Get Fooled Again'.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Jan 08 2024

Some classics on here. Harmonies are good, but I think they suffer from being recorded in 1970.

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Jan 09 2024

A pretty lame, uninspired album. The only good songs are the guitar-forward ones, which I can't believe is a big ask on a Dire Straits album. The only 3 things keeping this from being a one-star album is the riff from Money For Nothing, the song Walk of Life for being catchy, and One World for some much-welcome guitar stuff. It's crazy that this album is considered a classic.

Blunderbuss by Jack White
Jan 10 2024

Pretty good. My first foray into Jack White's solo work. It definitely grew on me, but I can't say it's my favorite thing ever.

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Jan 12 2024

Loved it. So strange and ethereal, but you still connect with it on an emotional level.

Emperor Tomato Ketchup by Stereolab
Jan 14 2024

Didn’t really connect with any of the songs, but I appreciate having my palette challenged.

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Jan 15 2024

Blues is great, I was surprised by how much his voice is the main show as well, in additions to the guitar.

Live At Leeds by The Who
Jan 16 2024

Great, rocks hard, better than the studio albums I think. Especially the instrumental tracks and medleys.

Jan 17 2024

Might be interesting from a historical or production perspective, but I didn’t really connect with any of the songs, and they didn’t really seem to be trying to say anything. It’s like they weren’t committed to the vision either. It felt almost like a satire, like Spinal Tap recorded this as a way to make fun of prog/psych rock. Cool cover art though.

More Specials by The Specials
Jan 18 2024

Okay. Fun and interesting, but I didn’t really connect with anything.

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Jan 19 2024

Fun 70s rock. I liked the surreal lyrics and the groove.

Konnichiwa by Skepta
Jan 21 2024

Eh. Kind of a normal hip hop album. Didn’t really finish it.

Boston by Boston
Jan 22 2024

Classic. Every song is great.

Sea Change by Beck
Jan 23 2024

Great album. Loved it.

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams
Jan 24 2024

Definitely grew on me. I’m not super used to country, so I don’t think it hit as hard as it could have. Though the songs are undeniably well-written. Not sure I’m inspired by the production choices.

Trio by Dolly Parton
Jan 25 2024

Excellent!

Antichrist Superstar by Marilyn Manson
Jan 26 2024

I actually really liked it. I thought the songs were cool and grooves were great.

Cross by Justice
Jan 30 2024

amazing. Loved it

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Jan 31 2024

Her voice is great, but the songs aren’t. And the production seemed to want a lofi sound, but instead it sounds cheap.

Space Ritual by Hawkwind
Feb 01 2024

Cool idea, didn’t listen to all of it, cause it got too long and started to all feel same-y.

Sheet Music by 10cc
Feb 02 2024

Such a cool album. Really grew on me. It’s like a 1970s Ween.

Bat Out Of Hell by Meat Loaf
Feb 05 2024

Excellent. Kinda silly, but the arrangements are great and super fun.

Peggy Suicide by Julian Cope
Feb 07 2024

Listened to part of it. Grew on me a bird but not really my thing. Feels like a slightly evolved version of Jim Morrison.

Yank Crime by Drive Like Jehu
Feb 08 2024

I’m not really into hardcore, but it seemed pretty good.

Night Life by Ray Price
Feb 09 2024

Beautiful album.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Feb 10 2024

Great!

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Feb 15 2024

Meandering

So by Peter Gabriel
Feb 22 2024

excellent!
