5/5
Stunning post posthumous work that captured a bluesy masterpiece of a life cut short.
Joanna Newsom

Grandiose, vast, demands repeat listens to center in on the intricacies of the lyrics and arrangements. Demanding of your time and attention when an artist doesn't need Spotify to know their worth.
Run-D.M.C.

The original, classic and groundbreaking album that paved the way for future generations.
Frank Sinatra
4/5
Sinatra riding high after two back-to-back Grammy albums of the year teams up with Antonio Carlos to elevate the bossa nova sound to new heights.

Beautiful piano arrangements, deep vocal soul but more of an album of its time. Still happy to appreciate today.

5/5
British trip hop pioneers with a debut that blends genres and your mind.
Steely Dan
3/5
A bit more formulaic for a collective that has much stronger individual outputs. Still an enjoyable romp.
MGMT
5/5
A standout darling that shattered the divide between indie and mainstream. The perfection behind this specific craft alienated the group to take one of the hardest left turns towards expectations for a career still redefining expectations to this day.
The Prodigy
2/5
A definite product of its time. While I have found memories of hearing this back in 1997, it no longer resonates or holds up for my tastes.
Elvis Presley
4/5
A gritty and strong vocal performance from the King. A lovely introduction to a more expansive catalog of tracks.
Stevie Wonder
5/5
One of Stevie's many masterworks. A true artist flexing on his multi-instrument skill set with grown up lyrics that still resonates with his growing audience.
Elvis Presley
3/5
Post Army Elvis stumbles a bit with consistency but still has the pipes to crank out the blues.
Boston
4/5
A classic rock staple. Undeniably catchy and fun. Stands the test of time.
Sinead O'Connor
4/5
A historic album that provided a voice that would spark a wild controversy. Unfairly dismissed at the time but has proven to be a timeless classic.
Richard Thompson
5/5
Folk dueling vocals, sharp lyrics and timeless melodies. A winner then and a winner now.
Booker T. & The MG's
4/5
A lead single that transcended music at the time and pop culture to date. The full album still brings the energy of timeless soul rock.
Traffic
3/5
Steve Winwood led the charge for this by the numbers blues rock album. Seems somewhat by the numbers in this day and age but a solid history lesson for a force within the industry.
Deee-Lite
3/5
Truly an album of its time. The predecessor to Jock Jams that would rule the stadium world for decades. That nostalgia drip is real and still brings a smile to my face. Maybe not one to have on repeat but holds a special place in your heart.
The Associates
3/5
Hectic, chaotic, melodic and prominent songwriting.....of the times. The rawness of the production seems a bit of the era and doesn't translate as well for me on a personal level.
Depeche Mode
4/5
A perfect blend of pop and goth that was dark yet accessible. The melodies and lyrics are on point and stand the test of time.
Teenage Fanclub
4/5
Alt rockers hit the jackpot with legit rifts and hooks that bleed into your heart over 12 tracks.
Björk
4/5
Bold, daring and quintessential avant-garde.
Fleet Foxes
5/5
A tour de force debut album with dense melodies and harmonics. A true wonder of an album that bursts with spring energy and lifts the spirit.
Kraftwerk
5/5
The original. The pioneers. The beginning of the electronic craze and of course it comes from Düsseldorf. Buckle up.
Derek & The Dominos
4/5
A timeless classic from an individual that is tough to stomach these days. Still, looking at this album in a vacuum has genre defining hits and leave a strong legacy.
The Dave Brubeck Quartet
4/5
The perfect blend of jazz for a beginner to waltz into. Easy listening although complex arrangements.
Sly & The Family Stone
5/5
Powerful raw lyrics behind an original brand of soul like no other. Elements of rock, fund and just an overall mind trip that is relevant to the political climate of all eras.
Public Image Ltd.
4/5
Post Sex Pistols life takes on a familiar turn with anti establishment and killer hooks. This album helped usher in the post-punk era and the rock wave going into the 80s.
Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark
4/5
Early synth pop ushering in a blend of new wave, goth and other metrics that defined the 80s.
Björk
4/5
Björk is a bit of an enigma with her bold and unique arrangements. I've long desired to get closer to her music but have struggled to maintain a deeper connection. Debut blends together several genres with memorable lyrics and a passionate voice. Certainly worth revisiting to bring out the true genius of her work.
The Young Rascals
5/5
A solid blast from the past.
Massive Attack
3/5
Club, soul and so much more.
Beastie Boys
4/5
Phenomenal debut from true trend setters. No other group like them at the time or to date.
Led Zeppelin
5/5
An absolute monster of an album that continued the dominance expected from Led Zeppelin for the golden ages of hard rock.
Tom Waits
3/5
An acquired cup of tea for non-Tom Waits fans but can see the charm behind his style.
The Roots
4/5
The perfect blend of hip hop and soul over the tiny bit excessive length but it never seems to run dry.
Funkadelic
5/5
Psychedelic funk's bible. A true legacy produced by a legend of the genre in George Clinton.
Ella Fitzgerald
4/5
A wonderful compilation to re-introduce you to a queen of jazz that is still timeless today.
Eurythmics
3/5
A solid 80s romp with a timeless classic in Sweet Dreams.
The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
2/5
Technically sound that rips through longer than kept my ear. An output that did not agree with me on a personal level but can appreciate for others.
Kendrick Lamar
4/5
Passion, rage, flow, beauty.
The White Stripes
5/5
Quintessential album that along with the Strokes helped spark the garage rock revolution of the early 2000s. The beginning of Jack White's impressive career.
Spiritualized
5/5
A pioneer of space rock and the peak of an amazing career journey.
Steely Dan
5/5
The perfect yacht rock album that blends smooth jazz and a hint of rock. Throw this on while exploring the various islands of the Bahamas and you'll be in heaven.
Big Black
3/5
Industrial, noise punk debut from Big Black. The production is rough but enough edge and lyrical wit to keep you engaged though. Not my personal cup of tea but appreciate its historical significance.
The Residents
2/5
The first album that is truly not for me. The arrangements, lyrics and oddities may have technical composure but just didn't hit for me track by track.
Paul Simon
5/5
The second solo album from post break-up Paul Simon hits hard with melodies and lyrical wit. A true classic from front to back.
Led Zeppelin
5/5
An instant rock classic. A band that defined genres. A total win from start to finish.
John Martyn
4/5
An early workhorse of the space rock genre. First time listener and really dug the combination of styles. Going to be a repeater for sure.
Circle Jerks
3/5
An absolute breeze of an album with 14 tracks just under 16 minutes. Not my cup of tea but can't complain too much while learning about the history of punk uprising.
4/5
An earth shaking, power house of an album by a storied veteran of the industry.
M.I.A.
3/5
Punk meets hip-hop in a refreshing politically charged album of its time. MIA hasn't held up in terms of her promising debut but the appreciation is still there (if you ignore her current rantings).
Megadeth
2/5
Megadeth is not in my wheelhouse. This is a difficult album to review from a technical or artistic standpoint when the music does not agree with my tastes. Overall I can see the measurement of where it ranks in the trash categories but it is just not for me.
Love
3/5
Psychedelic craftwork in the height of the 60s wave.
Kate Bush
5/5
An 80s masterpiece with a current revival. The power and beauty still stand tall today.
Christine and the Queens
4/5
A true leap in talent, production and lyrical prowess. Thoroughly enjoy her pop stardom in both the English and French versions.
Hüsker Dü
4/5
The final Hüsker Dü album culminates with the rock and maturity you'd expect from Bob Mould. A band to remember.
Elliott Smith
5/5
The master of indie folk weaves acoustic melodies with lyrical craft that pains and amazes.
Daft Punk
3/5
An important electronic act and an important album. That being said, it has a certain nature of repetitiveness that doesn't necessarily mean timeless. The boundaries and working blocks for future success are transparent.
Led Zeppelin
5/5
A continued run of form that will never be matched. A stone cold classic from beginning to end. The energy and pacing has no rival.
Pere Ubu
4/5
A new discovery on my radar for post-punk. At the edge of the 70s before new-wave but has that sprinkle anticipating the coming change. A wonderful new addition to anyone's collection.
Cream
4/5
A classic rock stable blending psychedelic and heavy leaning rock.
Alice Cooper
3/5
A superb hit single to lead off followed by an album of its time. Never really gets back into full gear but a decent listen.
Rod Stewart
5/5
A mastercraft of rock, blues and jazz from a living legend in Rod. The soundwork holds up and is as relevant as ever.
Led Zeppelin
5/5
Three in a row. The Zeppelin continues down a deeper and darker path that excites and dazzles.
Holger Czukay
4/5
A new one for me. A mind blending and genre busting output over four girthy songs. Something to revisit but a pleasant first experience.
Public Enemy
4/5
A revolutionary album with powerful lyrics that hits at the racial divides with authority.
Malcolm McLaren
3/5
A psychedelic trip blending genres I didn't know where a wonderful match. Not everything hit but an important album of its era.
Yeah Yeah Yeahs
5/5
A rock revolution that was instrumental in the craze.
The Cult
2/5
A decent romp through the post-Zeppelin era. The Born to be Wild side step though is almost unforgivable.
William Orbit
3/5
A strange trip into ambient that mixes a variety of genres to soothe the soul
Michael Jackson
5/5
An absolute classic from a man that may no longer deserve our attention.
Ghostface Killah
4/5
A new album for me. This hits on all fronts with powerful lyrics and Wu-Tang additions throughout.
Creedence Clearwater Revival
4/5
A classic rock staple with a few anthems of the era. A few tracks take a bit of a slog but an overall enjoyable listen.
David Bowie
5/5
Another marvel out of the Electric Lady studio. The melt of R&B, jazz and rock comes together over the course of the lengthy tracks for only 8 total.
ZZ Top
5/5
Guitar rock, classic, staple, essential.
King Crimson
4/5
An introspective dive into the unknown. King Crimson challenges your mind.
The Avalanches
5/5
Green Day
2/5
A massive pop punk hit that spawned a Broadway show. There are undeniably studio crafted hits on here but the rest are more by the numbers. Not for me.
Lorde
5/5
A showstopping phenomenal album from start to finish. Big hooks, biting lyrics. A masterpiece.
Emerson, Lake & Palmer
4/5

4/5
Punktastic. A blaze of glory sweeping through kick after kick.
Lou Reed
5/5
Stone cold classic for a stone cold dude.
Ash
3/5
BritPop origins can be traced back to this release. A blend of pop, punk with a strong focus on guitars. An enjoyable listen but overstays its welcome at 62 minutes.
Roxy Music
5/5
Farewell to Brian Eno, the mastermind behind Roxy Music and a legend of the industry. At the top of British albums.
Bill Evans Trio

A simple masterpiece that has a fluid motion between the Trio. A wonderful introduction to Bill Evans and a jumping off point to your jazz discography.
Portishead
4/5
A wild adventure into the unknown using psychedelic melodies to challenge and intrigue the listener.
Talking Heads
5/5
Wild, inventive and another David Byrne masterstroke.

A breakthrough, chill mix, rap and soul perfection.

A beautiful and haunting trip through the devilish mind of Fever Ray. A natural extension of The Knife to excite and delight.

3/5

5/5

a-ha
3/5
Another solid 80s output where the lead single is a generational impact. The remainder of the album retains the soul of the collective work but doesn't hit the dizzying heights of Take On Me.
Bruce Springsteen
5/5
A stunning classic from a power house in the industry.
Goldfrapp
3/5
An interest concept album about a tree and the start of Folktronica
