Who's Next

The Who

4/5

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

Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young

3/5

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

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

2/5

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

Jack White

3/5

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.

That's The Way Of The World

Earth, Wind & Fire

4/5

Great album, great songs, great groove.

Ágætis Byrjun

Sigur Rós

4/5

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

All Things Must Pass

George Harrison

5/5

Amazing. Great songs and great production.

Emperor Tomato Ketchup

Stereolab

3/5

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

Live At The Regal

B.B. King

4/5

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

The Who

4/5

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

The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn

Pink Floyd

1/5

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

The Specials

2/5

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

Electric Warrior

T. Rex

3/5

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

Chirping Crickets

Buddy Holly & The Crickets

4/5

Great!

Konnichiwa

Skepta

2/5

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

Boston

4/5

Classic. Every song is great.

Sea Change

Beck

4/5

Great album. Loved it.

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road

Lucinda Williams

3/5

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

Dolly Parton

5/5

Excellent!

Antichrist Superstar

Marilyn Manson

4/5

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

There's No Place Like America Today

Curtis Mayfield

5/5

Excellent.
