Feb 13 2024

Pretty good - production is great and the moodier songs balance the occasional silliness. Standouts are 39 and Love of my Life

Stand! by Sly & The Family Stone
Feb 15 2024

Exceptional album. Production is distinct. It's endlessly stylish and the song writing is exceptional. The stripped down slower tunes are my favorites, like "Somebody's Watching You".

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Feb 16 2024

Incredible album. First time listening in many years and still sounds brutal and intense. Standout track this time was "Disposable Heroes"

Smash by The Offspring
Feb 17 2024

Fun listen after so many years.

It's A Shame About Ray by The Lemonheads
Feb 28 2024

Never heard the whole thing. Great early 90's jangle pop. Standout tracks are title track, and the "Shakey Ground".

One World by John Martyn
Feb 29 2024

Can see the appeal but didn’t really standout to me

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Mar 01 2024

Sort of get it mostly don’t

American Pie by Don McLean
Mar 04 2024

American Pie is great but the rest of the album is just okay. “Vincent” other standout track

Bummed by Happy Mondays

Enjoyed it

Vivid by Living Colour

It rocks but not much else

Guero by Beck
Jul 01 2024

Solid

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Dec 18 2024

Highlights: 3: "Son of a preacher man" 5: "Don't forget about me" 7. "Just one smile" Overall the production is great. Lush strings with tasteful late 60's band sounds, including brass. Her voice is strong. Not an album I'll likely revisit in full, but was an enjoyable listen. Brill Building songs.

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Dec 19 2024

Highlights: 1. Dont go near the water 2. Disney Girls (Bruce sings) 3. A Day in the life of a tree

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Jan 16 2025

Beyond Belief is great

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
Nov 06 2025

Feels like a debut. Lots of energy, songs are decent, production could be better. Breakdown and American Girl. Pretty good!

Nov 08 2025

The band is cooking, his voice sounds great, amazing recording (all in the span of 24 hours). Tribute to Sam Cooke.

Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Nov 09 2025

Beautiful album. Stevie was really going through it. Jeff Beck on Looking for another Pure Love. The ballads are endearing. He's the best singer ever.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Nov 11 2025

Can’t objectively rate this. Too many memories listening to it. Teen angst and yearning. Love ot

Tical by Method Man
Nov 13 2025

Enjoyable

Electric Warrior by T. Rex
Nov 17 2025

Lean Woman Blues, Girl, Bang a Gong. Great album.

Nov 24 2025
