Signing Off by UB40

Pretty good. Nothing super exciting though

Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake
Jan 12 2024

The guitar work was really good but I wasn't a big fan of the singing. It was pretty slow moving overall. Probably would never listen to album ever again but it was a nice learning experience. Kind of like a folky jazz. Definitely some jazz chords in there. I could imagine Jose Gonzalez singing all the songs and it being a lot better of an album.

Jan 13 2024

Really fun album to listen to. Interesting that it came out in 1972 because it felt like Pink Floyd took some elements from this album whether it was consciously or unconsciously. Glad this one was recommended.

Jan 14 2024

Terrible. Made me like their one hit even less after putting myself through that synth pop horror.

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Jan 15 2024

Every CCR song is the same. Change my mind.

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Jan 16 2024

Pretty good album. Reminded me of Portishead. Had that dark alternative thing going on.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Jan 17 2024

Mediocre. Sloppy guitar work. No disrespect to Jack White. I'm sure it was on purpose but I'm not a fan of this album

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Jan 18 2024

Amazing album I never knew existed. Reminds me of Ty Segall or KGLW

Rejoicing In The Hands by Devendra Banhart
Jan 19 2024

Sounded like the epitome of college radio music. Music was good but lyrics were weird. Enjoyed more than disliked.

Soul Mining by The The
Jan 21 2024

Loved this album. Reminded me of Yeasayer. I'll listen to it again.

Sister by Sonic Youth
Jan 22 2024

Good album. Interesting to hear all the elements people have copied over the years of this noise rock. I enjoyed it

Mothership Connection by Parliament
Jan 23 2024

Musicianship was great but I wasn't a fan of the repetitiveness. It was cool to hear where the Dr. Dre chronic samples came from

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Jan 24 2024

Phenomenal. I actually got this one on vinyl from my dad but hadn't listened to it yet. Soooo gooood!

Kilimanjaro by The Teardrop Explodes
Jan 25 2024

Not a huge fan of this style. This is about the time recordings started going digital and everything sounds like it was recorded in a black box. Musicianship is good but not big on the vocal style.

Yank Crime by Drive Like Jehu
Jan 26 2024

Fun album. Reminded me of like an earlier Refused or The Bronx. Ahead of it's time. Did get redundant and repetitive though.

Ten by Pearl Jam
Jan 27 2024

Not a huge fan of this album but Black is a great song. They usually have at least one great song per album

Moon Safari by Air
Jan 28 2024

Fun album. I'm not big on mostly instrumental albums but this was great. Reminded me of MGMT style music.

Green River by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Jan 31 2024

This was a better one of the albums. Enjoyed it.

Grace by Jeff Buckley
Feb 02 2024

One of the best albums ever made. Ahead of it's time.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Feb 03 2024

It was better than I expected but I'm not a fan of this band

Darkdancer by Les Rythmes Digitales
Feb 04 2024

It was pretty good for a dance album.

Sail Away by Randy Newman
Feb 05 2024

Not bad. Gets bland at times but deep lyrics.

The Blueprint by JAY Z
Feb 07 2024

It got better but it's pretty bad. Sounded like he wanted to copy Eminem's Slim Shady LP. I get he's a great business man but mediocre at rap at best. The Kanye beats were legit.

B-52's by The B-52's
Feb 11 2024

I respect them because they're from Athens but not a huge fan

Imagine by John Lennon
Feb 14 2024

Good album

Signing Off by UB40
Feb 15 2024

Pretty good. Nothing super exciting though

Playing With Fire by Spacemen 3
Feb 19 2024

Really cool album for the 80s. Reminds me of Pond. A lot of 2000s psych rock sounded like this.

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Feb 20 2024

Fun album and great songs

Moving Pictures by Rush
Feb 23 2024

I like this album but got old to me a long time ago

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Feb 24 2024

Pretty relaxing listening in the morning. Better than I expected

Cypress Hill by Cypress Hill
Feb 26 2024

Honestly great but I'd probably not listen to it regularly

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Feb 27 2024

Best Zeppelin album

Murder Ballads by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Feb 28 2024

I enjoyed it. Reminds me of the doors

Juju by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Mar 02 2024

Pretty good

Screamadelica by Primal Scream
Mar 03 2024

Like there are good songs but this album confuses me. Not consistent

Now I Got Worry by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
