Popular Reviews

Imagine by John Lennon

This is a classic. Every song shows Lennon's brillance

90 by 808 State

Definitely not. Would not include this on a top 5000 album.

Fragile by Yes

While I really like some of the tracks, the full album gets a bit much. Unless of course you are high!

All Ratings (45)

Heroes by David Bowie
Jan 10 2024

A bit too experimental for me. Some great tracks, but overall not as strong as some of his other works

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Jan 11 2024

Great 1st album. Stands up to the test of time; some classic songs there

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Jan 12 2024

Good Album. Not as strong as some others

Brothers by The Black Keys
Sep 17 2024

Great album. Such a different sound. Something to get lost into

Reggatta De Blanc by The Police
Sep 19 2024

Great album at the time, some of the songs do not stand the test of time... Still a good solid album

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
Sep 23 2024

This is just a good solid album. The songs still sound good. I think it is an underated album by the Beatles

Smash by The Offspring
Sep 24 2024

Not a big fan; sounds like a lot of other bands of the era.

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Sep 25 2024

Stan and Charlie sound great together. I had not heard this album before... Chill vibes.

Rain Dogs by Tom Waits
Sep 26 2024

I find this album uneven... some really good songs and then some that seems like they are just filler.

1999 by Prince
Sep 27 2024

A nice listen; grooves all in the right places.

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
Sep 30 2024

I know this is a "classic", but it was a bit uneven for me to give it a 5. Some stuff I really liked and others: "meh"...

Imagine by John Lennon
Oct 01 2024

This is a classic. Every song shows Lennon's brillance

Aja by Steely Dan
Oct 03 2024

Incredible album.

Ingenue by k.d. lang
Oct 04 2024

Good album, but have to be in the right mood to listen to the full thing.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Oct 08 2024

A good album, but a bit disapointing from thier previous two

Sex Packets by Digital Underground
Oct 09 2024

not my style

Rio by Duran Duran
Oct 14 2024
Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Oct 15 2024

one of my favorites of Stevie's

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Oct 16 2024

Not a big fan.

Slipknot by Slipknot
Oct 17 2024

Did not enjoy this at all

Clandestino by Manu Chao
Oct 18 2024

A good listen, but got strange at times

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Oct 21 2024

Not really my genre, but there is no denying that this album rocks

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Oct 22 2024

A good first album. Really like the jazz vibe, but wore on me a bit.

In The Wee Small Hours by Frank Sinatra
Oct 23 2024

Not my favorite Frank album... it drags a bit at times, but it is Frank...

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Oct 25 2024

Really good album, especially when the mood is right.

With The Beatles by Beatles
Oct 28 2024

Its the Beatles. Lots of nostalgia for me here. Songs are pretty tight, though a bit simple for these times... still, at the time cutting edge

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Oct 29 2024

Nice, but it didn't hold my attention for the whole play... not sure I'd pick it to play, but it would be ok if someone else put it on. I'd listen

Ill Communication by Beastie Boys
Oct 30 2024

Understand this was "ground breaking", but I still don't get it 30 years later. Just not my style

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Oct 31 2024

Jimi. While this is a classic, in reality, for me, there are only a few really good songs on this...

90 by 808 State
Nov 01 2024

Definitely not. Would not include this on a top 5000 album.

Fragile by Yes
Nov 05 2024

While I really like some of the tracks, the full album gets a bit much. Unless of course you are high!

Wonderful Rainbow by Lightning Bolt
Nov 06 2024

Ok, where did this one come from? One of the worst albums to rate...

Lust For Life by Iggy Pop
Nov 08 2024

I know Iggy is a legend, but I found this album to be inconsistant. A couple of good songs and others that just don't resonate.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Nov 11 2024

While not my style, her emotion and voice are stunning...

At Folsom Prison by Johnny Cash
Nov 12 2024

This is a classic. Songs are good, setting is better. Historical.

Lam Toro by Baaba Maal
Nov 13 2024

Interesting. Not something I'd listen to often
