Stand!
Sly & The Family Stone
Such a powerful, fun and obviously very influential record! I could do without "Sex machine", which hasn't aged that well, but other than that it is a tight and beautiful record with surprisingly many fragments you know already if you like Hip Hop and Electronic records.

This is a hit record despite being noisy and strange, because at the same time it has great melodies and power. It almost invented 90s Grunge and Alternative Rock, neither Nirvana nor Radiohead would have sounded like they did without this. But most importantly it is just an awesome listen.

Willie Nelson
Nice and pretty easy listening versions of some classics. Good for relaxing or as a smooth background for some light conversation. This is hardly real country music, I believe, but Willie's voice is familiar and comfortable. I find it a bit baffling, that this is one of his most successful records and considered a classic.

Lynyrd Skynyrd
What a great record, all killer, no filler! It invented Southern Rock the way we know it today, but is definitely one of the best Rock albums ever, Southern or not. Free Bird, Simple Man and Tuesdays Gone alone are classics, but the rest is complete up to par.

Plain and simple: One of the great classics of Rock History - and you can hear why. Everyone should now "Me and Bobby McGee" and "Mercedes Benz", but the rest is just as great. Sweaty, heartfelt blues rock with one of the best and most legendary singers ever.

Some of the music is really good, but lyrics from a sexist, horny preteen inside a grownups body are so damn cringy and on top of that is Kiedis just a really mediocre singer, so this has definitely not aged well.

Metallica
First of all, I love Metallica ever since I was a teenager. This was actually the second Metallica release I bought on the first day, after I had discovered to them through "ReLoad" (of all their records, I know) and quickly inhaled the back catalog. I did not like it then and I still cannot bear it now. I do appreciate the experiment and of course there are some really beautiful moments, "Ecstasy of Gold" being played live is one of them. But most of the time it is just too much for me. There is not much "room" left in Metallica's sound, but the orchestra just keeps pushing its way into the songs partly smothering the band. The worst thing for me is that it kills pretty much all of the quieter parts by filling them in instead of letting the songs breathe. This takes away most of the dynamic especially songs like "Master of Puppets" and "Thing that should not be" are supposed to have. I would have liked to see this live, but under my headphones I will always prefer just about any other Metallica live record.

This sounds all perfect and very tasteful, the musicians are obviously the cream of the crop. Even the songs themselves seem very well-written. And yet the only way this makes me feel is bored and underwhelmed. There is just no passion, no human element and (to me) most important: No real dynamics in terms of speed, loudness and yes, emotion. I never thought that 40 minutes could feel this long...
I couldn't help but think of Steven Wilson, who definitely learned from Fagen and Becker's production perfection, but luckily he also learned from Pink Floyd and others how wo write interesting songs and those are mostly missing here.

Just epic, one of the best debuts ever. This has everything Maiden's career has been built one maybe aside from Dickinson's air raid siren voice. DiAnno is completely different, but maybe even better. This mixture of a rough, punky sound and proggy epics is unlike anything else and the fact that many of the songs are bona fide classics speaks for itself.

I find it hard to see how this record or even artist should be exceptional in any way. She sounds pleasant enough, but also exactly like a thousand other singers in this genre. Lyrics are okay and seem honest, but it also doesn't seem like she has anything important to say. Guitar work sounds good, but doesn't stand out in any way. This is okay background music, but how anyone could sit down and enjoy this as a favorite record beats me.

What an incredible amount of hits you know from the radio, parties, disco or whatever. The sound is almost too big and perfect. Lyrics are mostly stupid and cheesy, but here nobody cares. The record is way too long and the songs are hard to keep apart, so it all blurs into an overproduced mess of sweet pop trying to sound like hard rock. One or two songs are really fun, but the album as a whole is just too much to be enjoyable.

Absolute classic and I agree that this should be on here. Doesn't mean it's a great record in my book. Aside from the title track and maybe "Life in the fast lane" there is a lot of boring filler tracks and while the musicianship is impressive it is definitely missing some sort of edge to make it interesting instead of just smooth and bland.
