In Utero

Nirvana

3/5

Felt very nostalgic, even though I never listened to Nirvana growing up, but this sort of music is what I gravitated towards when I first started to veer away from our 80's prog rock household (thanks dad). These days I listen to more softer stuff, do I think I would have enjoyed this more as a 20 year old than in my thirties. Enjoyed the more cacophonic stuff.

Parachutes

Coldplay

2/5

Sleepy but not in a good way. I'm a boring person but not this boring.

KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka

4/5

Really liked it! May need a couple of relistens to get a handle on it.

Black Holes and Revelations

Muse

2/5

When I was delighted at first by Map of the Problematique and then disappointed when it turned out not to be an instrumental, I realized I just don't like the singer.

Moon Safari

Air

4/5

Airy, space-agey, chill

British Steel

Judas Priest

3/5

This is dad music to me, as in this is the sort of music my dad listened to. I heard this first before I'd learned English. So it's kinda hard to listen to this as music and not as hazy memories. Three stars?

Qui sème le vent récolte le tempo

MC Solaar

3/5

I liked some of that jazzier songs, but other than that it didn't really register as spectacular

The Stone Roses

4/5

When some of the guitars started to remind me of Oasis, I knew I really liked this one!

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

3/5

Pretty good

Let's Get It On

Marvin Gaye

3/5

Sort of definitionally sensual. I don't think I'd ever be like today I want to re-listen to this.

Superunknown

Soundgarden

3/5

I really liked the first couple of songs, but then it started to wear on me. Maybe should not have listened to near bedtime. Dad music?

Iron Maiden

3/5

Another very nostalgic album thanks to my dad. I don't know if I'd ever listen to it on my own though. Pleasant enough for a Sunday morning. 3/5

Ill Communication

Beastie Boys

3/5

Good biking music for my commute. Appreciated the instrumental tracks for breaks.

Pretzel Logic

Steely Dan

4/5

Groovy and pleasant. Dad music to the max.

When I Was Born For The 7th Time

Cornershop

2/5

There were a couple of songs I liked (We're in Your Corner, Good to be on the road Back home again), but in general just wasn't to my tastes.

Beach Samba

Astrud Gilberto

2/5

Pleasant enough, but not particularly memorable.

Birth Of The Cool

Miles Davis

4/5

Very cool jazz. I'm generally more into east coast jazz but this is nice too.

The Nightfly

Donald Fagen

2/5

So smooth nothing stuck to the brain

Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury

The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy

3/5

Found this quote on Wikipedia: "The big problem with Disposable Heroes was that it was a record people listened to because it was good for them - kind of like broccoli." and I do tend to agree. The album is quite dense, and full of ideas on top of mostly moody beats. I was still glad to have heard this.

Tracy Chapman

5/5

So many great songs

The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

3/5

Ray Charles with an orchestra. Nice enoughm

...The Dandy Warhols Come Down

The Dandy Warhols

4/5

Full of 90's irony in a way I really liked

Scott 4
