Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Jan 08 2024

Overall a Generic 70s album. It’s not bad any means just average. Id probably give it a 6.5 out of 10. Down the waterline. Southbound again I enjoyed the most

Jan 09 2024

Id give it a 7. Not a HUGE fun of oasis but it has a few good songs. Kind of remind me of a British weezer. They all just kind of blend together after a while. Favourite songs are probably don’t look back in anger , cum on the noize, wonderwall and she’s electric.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Jan 10 2024

6.5/10. She has an amazing voice and it’s very old western music. First time ever listening to a girl sing a western. Favourites was coat of many colours. Would Probably listen to her again.

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Jan 11 2024

A staple for 40 year old white women. Honestly isn’t too bad as I thought it’d be I liked the instrumentals and her voice is alright. Back to black was definitely my favourite song. Id probably give it a 6.5-7

Jan 12 2024

An average album. I loved the guitar in almost all of the songs. The fast pace of it I really like. The singers voice either annoys me or I like it depending on the mood of the song. Though all the songs kind of blend together and are hard to differentiate. My favourites were the big country , I’m not in love , take me to the river. Id give it a 5.5-6/10. Not a bad album by any means but probably wouldn’t go out of my way to listen too

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Jan 15 2024

An absolutely beautiful album. It had a very sad tone. The entire album is amazing there isn’t a single song I found bland. The melancholy tone of the album and the singers vocals (although British) are beautiful. The instrumental is also very catchy. The songs are catchy and all of the lyrics have deep meaning. It’s not hard to see why this is one of the highest rated albums of all time. Personally I’ll have to give it a 8.5-9

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Jan 16 2024

Thought it was mid tbh , nothing rememberable at all , I can’t even say they’re like extremely bad but it’s all just the same amount of rock shite tossed together. Id give it a 2 or 3/10

Roxy Music by Roxy Music
Jan 17 2024

I thought it was average. The instrumental was above average but just the vocals weren’t great and I couldn’t even understand the lyrics. Plus it didn’t help the songs were so long. Ig give this a 4/10

Groovin' by The Young Rascals
Jan 18 2024

Went in thinking I wouldn’t like it but was pleasantly surprised. The mono vocals and amazing guitar riffs of this make it a real 60s kind of song. Would listen again 6.5-7/10

American Beauty by Grateful Dead
Jan 19 2024

The album is average. The songs go on quite long and kind of blend together after a bit. The entire album reminds me of you were going on a road trip through the woods or something. The singers were good and the instrumental was very 70s. A few good songs but due to the length and some are just meh to me I’d give this a 6/10

Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan
Jan 20 2024

I’m not entirely sure what I think of this album tbh. He kind of reminds me of Billy Joel who I love but the songs is this album are just so long and drawn out with you get tired of whatever you enjoy quickly. Although saying this I will probably have to give him another listen In the future because I could see myself liking this artist. This album however is id give a 6/10

The Man Who by Travis
Jan 21 2024

I didn’t have much a chance to listen to it since I was celebrating my birthday. Overall I thought what I listened to was pretty ok I’ll need to give it a listen. I’ll give it 3 starts

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Jan 22 2024

Much better than the previous talking heads album. Overall I’m not entirely sure what I’d rate this considering I was too sick to even hear it half the time but a did like a few of the songs. The singer voice does irk me a good bit. Though the few songs I liked make up for it. I’ll give it a 6.5 or 7 out or 10 I probably would listen again

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jan 24 2024

This is the very first album I listened to when first when dipping my feet into music. Obviously I’m going to be a little bias however saying this. This album is still incredible. Chad flea and John Frusciante always play amazingly together. Anthony’s voice can be very hit or miss depending on the songs tone but overall I say he did a good enough job to not weigh the album down heavily. The music is funk rock. I just love how the instruments sound. Favourite songs are probably Scar tissue other side or Californication. As the lyrics have a lot of meaning when you listen to them. For the music I’d give it an 8.5/10

Rust In Peace by Megadeth
Jan 26 2024

First time listening to Megadeth overall I found them alright. I would listen to them again

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Feb 03 2024

A great album all the way through. I love folk music and ballads. I love the stories in the songs. No surprise but Johnny cash sounds amazing even live. I liked the rhythm of the guitar in most of the songs aswell. Would 100% listen again

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Feb 20 2024

This song got me feeling like I’m wearing a fedora walking down the smoggy alleyways of a city at night in the 50s it feels very Noir. However saying that I think this is more background music then something I’d actively choose to listen to again and again. I can appreciate the talent and effort Miles David put into this album however. I think it’s safe to give this album a 8/10. I liked all the songs on it only downside is that sometimes they can feel a bit dragged out

Lam Toro by Baaba Maal
Feb 26 2024

I liked this album. My first time listening to African kind of music. The instrumental in the background gave a real wierd vibe to it but it was a good peaceful one. Even the vocals although I can’t understand him they add to the mystique feeling. Id rate this on the higher end of the 3 star album as some of the songs I just couldn’t get into but I’d say half of them I liked. I don’t know if I’d actively listen to them again but if they came on I wouldn’t complain

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Feb 27 2024

I loved this album. It was very relaxing and comforting. The gentle melody’s and guitar notes along with Willie Nelson’s soothing vocals just make this album a really good listen. It didn’t do anything to outrageous that made me feel like it’s worth a 5 star however I find a comfort in the album’s predictably overall 4 stars

Feb 28 2024

I thought this album was overhyped but it was honestly pretty good. A lot of the songs are catchy and some on the melodies immediately catch you. No extreme emotions were felt during this album but i can respect just how much this album probably changed music in them earlier years. A very good album and I would listen again

Licensed To Ill by Beastie Boys
Mar 31 2024

6.5 or a 7 out of 10 I think. It reminds me of something Michealangelo from the Ninja turtles would listen too or dole merchants from the 80s would act. They pretty much say the same 10 things repeatedly but I think it’s honestly pretty catchy and the guitar riffs go hard. Would listen to a few songs again. Favourites were shes crafty and No sleeo till Brooklyn

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Apr 04 2024

I liked the album but I wouldn’t go as far to say I loved it. I’m stuck between a 3 or 4 star rating. It was very relaxing but some songs did just not stand out from the others. But I couldn’t say much bad stuff about it. I liked it
