Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Jan 10 2024

Gimme Shelter and You Can't Always Get What You Want are classic songs to come from a complete Stones album. Thoroughly contemplative of the era, this album is reminiscent of a different time yet oddly familiar.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Jan 11 2024

good album great blues guitar, notable Janis Joplin debut album with "piece of my heart", album art provides ample beginnings for conversation

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
Jan 12 2024

This album is very much a NIN album. "Closer" is a well known song which makes radio waves with some regularity despite its questionable lyrics. "Hurt" is a ballad cover of the Johnny Cash tune, which is not unfamiliar to radio airwaves, and includes a static background noise which serves to tie the mainstream to the more familiar sounds of the artist. The album does juxtapose the extreme noise of NIN music against some lighter tones. While not an album I would pick to listen to on my own, this album does expose the musical ability of NIN.

21 by Adele
Jan 15 2024

"21" offers many hits. Rolling in the Deep, Rumour Has It, Someone Like You, and Set Fire to the Rain. This album is very soulful and explores the vocal range Adele is known for, fittingly, as it is her breakthrough album. She explores many different tempos as well as topics as she reveals character depth at age 21.

Cloud Nine by The Temptations
Jan 16 2024

Groovy little album. Features hit, "I Heard It Through The Grapevine"

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince
Jan 17 2024

Prince album. Worked sufficiently as background noise.

...Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
Jan 18 2024

classic britney takes me back to a simpler time. great tracks throughout the album, dont stop at the singles. deep cuts are equally stellar

Eliminator by ZZ Top
Jan 19 2024

Great album. Good fast paced rock. Lots of popular songs.

From Elvis In Memphis by Elvis Presley
Jan 22 2024

Learned through this album that Dangerous Minds is an Elvis song and Dwight Yoakam Cover

Disraeli Gears by Cream
Jan 23 2024

Good album with Sunshine of Your Love. This is an Eric Clapton production which can be hidden from his personal career.

Court And Spark by Joni Mitchell
Jan 25 2024

Very light and enjoyable album. Easy listening. Nothing familiar but a good mix of folk and jazz styled rock.

Lazer Guided Melodies by Spiritualized
Dec 19 2024

Great Album, pretty psychedelic. lots of good ambient sounds, very enjoyable

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Dec 23 2024

Certainly was Talking Heads. Not bad, just not really my type of stuff.
