All Ratings

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

3/5

Son of a Preacher Man was amazing. The rest were nice but not my cup of tea.

Blue

Joni Mitchell

2/5

At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

5/5

These lyrics are hilarious. And what a \"storyteller's voice!\" This is brilliant.

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady

Charles Mingus

4/5

Not my taste but very cool.

Abattoir Blues / The Lyre of Orpheus

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

2/5

Meh. This really wasn't for me.

Homework

Daft Punk

5/5

OMG - I am LOVING this! It's taking me straight back to my college days.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

4/5

Excellent poet and song writer but as a performer....just not for me.

Black Holes and Revelations

Muse

4/5

Illinois

Sufjan Stevens

3/5

I've been a fan for a while but have never listened to a whole album of his. That was a lot to take all at once.

Cloud Nine

The Temptations

4/5

Lots of classics. Took me back.

Os Mutantes

4/5

Green Onions

Booker T. & The MG's

4/5

Loveless

My Bloody Valentine

2/5

Not for me.

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen

1/5

This dude desperately wants to be Johnny Cash and he's failing at it. I know this was a highly acclaimed album but....it feels self-indulgent and derivative. Meh.

Common

5/5

What an opening! So far, I'm really digging this. The middle - very strong. Wow. What a great album. So smooth, such a mood - this is amazing.

Drunk

Thundercat

5/5

Very cool modern jazz. Not at all what I was expecting. Great record.

Melodrama

Lorde

5/5

Loved every song. Really really great album.

Led Zeppelin

4/5

Bayou Country

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

Second Toughest In The Infants

Underworld

2/5

Opening track seemed promising but it all quickly got boring and repetitive. As background music, it's ok but there's nothing special here.

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

5/5

3 hours 14 minutes??? Good gravy. This is all lovely but that's A LOT of anyone to listen to.

Bringing It All Back Home

Bob Dylan

4/5

Lively. Mr. Tamborine Man is a classic for the ages.

D.O.A. the Third and Final Report of Throbbing Gristle

Throbbing Gristle

1/5

What the fuck am I listening to? Also, this is not an album by D.O.A. as I originally thought, it's by Throbbing Gristle. Weird, experimental, \"art\" I guess? I'm sure this has a place in music history but it's not what I would call \"music.\"

Better Living Through Chemistry

Fatboy Slim

2/5

Like a musical version of that Throbbing Gristle noise we listened to yesterday. I can definitely see the evolution.

Actually

Pet Shop Boys

3/5

I prefer Please but this is also a great album.

Lady Soul

Aretha Franklin

5/5

Every single one is a classic. Great stuff.

Orbital 2

Orbital

4/5

I see its place in music history now thanks to this project. Somewhere between Throbbing Gristle and Fatboy Slim. It's Daft Punk before they came around and refind the sound.

Listen Without Prejudice Vol. 1

George Michael

2/5

Yawn.

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

4/5

I prefer Document. But this is a great album.

The Nightfly

Donald Fagen

4/5

Easy listening is not my thing but this was benign enough.
