I shouldn't even dignify this with a review, and I'm sure as hell not going to listen to it. Dumbest band name ever. Dumbest album title ever. It should be on a list of albums to avoid at all costs. Fuck Limp Bizkit. 1. Obviously.

Pleasant. 4

Fine vintage progressive rock. 4

Oui. Tre Bien. 3.65

Classic. 5

How do you not open this album with Eruption>You Really Got Me? I'll never understand it. Still, another great debut. 5

Fun! 3.5

I'm giving this a three because the songs are great and Thin Lizzy rocks. But this is not an album. In any universe. It's barely even an EP. 3

I don't understand The Rolling Stones. 3.5

Chill. 3

Reggae. 3

Not so much. 2.25

Good job, David. 4.5

The angle of the dangle is adversely proportionate to the heat of the beat. Classic prog. 4.75

I'd rather be listening to Iron Maiden. 3.5

Is this objectively great, as so many seem to think? Or is it maudlin garbage? Was Jack the Ripper a sixty foot sea serpent from Scotland? Did I take this job for a quick buck? We may never know the answers to these questions, every one of these songs sounds exactly the same, and they all make me want to drown myself in a pool. I'm only giving it a 2.5 because the poetry is pretty good.

Cool. 3

I think most double albums are self-congratulatory, over-reaching, pretentious and unnecessary. Back to Basics is no different. Four songs in I was giving it a five. Sexy...hot...fire. But as much as I love hearing Christina call me Daddy and beg for a spanking, the second album totally loses the plot, and wouldn't have been heard by anyone if not for its pairing with the first. And sadly, not even her planet shatteringly incredible voice can save it. 3.5

Good old Simon Garfunkel. 3.5

Beatles. 4

Not quite. 2.5

I dug these mellow grooves. 3

Not sure, but I don't think so... 2.5

Violet precipitation. Cinco. That means you too.

...and yet, I still feel sick...🥴...2

One of the few albums I will totally forgive for being incredibly cover heavy, The Trinity Session was a game changer for me. A true masterpiece and contender for greatest debut album of all time, the fact that this trend defying gem was released at the height of the hair metal craze gives it legit punk credentials. And Margot has the voice of an angel. Unquestionably a 5.

Everybody Hurts is one of the worst musical crimes ever committed. And this is by no means my favorite REM album. But it's a solid effort. 3.1

Wow. Five CD's and all of it great. Incredible. Loved listening to this. 5 Parenthetically, not considering CD number 6, cuz no vocals and wtf 🥴

Groovy!! Needs more drumz though 😋 4.75

I like The Killers. 3

Indeed. 5

So so. 3

Nothing like the thought of amorous lizards to get my blood pumping 😝🤘. 5

Pleasant, mellow, liquid grooves...but didn't quite grab me ... 3

Perfect hip hop magic. 5

Not what I expected. Not impressed. 2.5

When the still sea conspires an armor And her sullen and aborted Currents breed tiny monsters True sailing is dead. 3

A breath of fresh air in a world of big hair. 5

If ABBA went to space... 3

Good. But didn't quite get me. 3

Not the biggest Meetwood Flac fan, but there's no denying this one. I'll even forgive Christine for Oh Daddy 🤢. 5

Play that funky music white boy!! 3

Liked this a lot more than the last Beta Band album we got, but still not completely on board. 3

I guess this is good for what it is, but I'm not really into it...3.

Classic. Influential. But not my favorite thing. 3.5

This is great rock-'n'-roll. 5

What in the actual fuck?!? I'll show mercy and withhold the one rating, considering how absurd and hilarious this is...🥴...2.

Slay Queen. 5

Fela. 5

I dig these mellow grooves. 4

Great album, but the Pumpkins have yet to earn a five from me. 4.5

Fun! 4

Cool...I guess... doesn't really do it for me...3

Parliament is funky as hell...but they're no Don Simmons. 4.75

A true piece of mastery. 5

Good not great. Like not love. 4

Ok. 3

I am the walrus. 4

Undeniable. 5

This isn't really my thing, and the fact that it came out in 1996 but still makes me feel old and out of touch makes me feel even older and out of toucher...but I guess it's alright...3

Thought I would enjoy this more than I did. 3

First time listening to Nas. Good shit. 5

This was fun. 4

Not all that glitters is gold but stack your money to the sky. Whatever Kanye. And let me be clear. Fuck this guy. But I feel like this is an objectively great album. So 5.

Weird. Not horrible. Not my favorite thing. I'll be generous. 3

Nope. 2

Hard to argue with that. 5

I enjoyed listening to this music. 5

Awesome. Now I won't have to use my AK today. 5

Perfection. Absolute joy. God bless ABBA!! 5

I've never understood why this was so big. I just don't get it. 3

Classic REM. 4

I enjoyed listening to these mellow grooves. 3

I've got your secret green cocaine dolphin right here!!! 2

This made me want to shake my booty. So I did. 4

That is what I am talking about. 5

They named this album after my boutique. Ill. 5

Another 5 for Credence!!

Bob. 5

Gee whiz, these mother fuckers can certainly play that rock -n-roll...4.5

Cock buzzing goodness. 4

Fairly ashamed that I've never heard this album before. It's great. Falls short of a five for me, though. Not big on the title track. 4.5

This both totally appropriate for where I'm at right now and the last thing I should be listening to...but a great album nonetheless...5

BURKE!!!! 4

Chill grooves for my Wednesday...kind of boring though...4

Interesting. Weird. Not bad. 3.25

Chrissie Hynde is a Goddess. Capital G. Great Friday record. BIG 5.

A 5 for the Pinkest of Floyd's!!

This didn't quite get me there. 3

If there was an early 70's version of Primus, but not as fun or interesting. Kind of liked Bach is Dead, though...2.25

Other than Bittersweet Symphony, I went into this totally cold. Brit Pop, innit? Very much enjoyed it. 4

Solid. 4

Remember that one time...when we were doing the album generator thing...and Stan Getz and Charlie Byrd was the album...and it was a Monday...and all of a sudden it was cool jazz Monday? That was awesome. 5

Ice Cube is indeed in the motherfucking house. 4

Suspiciously drum heavy effort from these pioneers of Scottish samba funk. I liked this better than the last Cure album we got, but still waiting for the really good stuff. 3.65

Neil Finn is the antichrist. 3

Carlos!! 5

For your information, my Nigerian goddess, Chicago is not on the coast and there is no R in your name. That being said, Diamond Life is a unique masterpiece of smooth jazz pop, and I LOVE it!! 5

Only knew the hit going into this. It was interesting. 3

I think this album is objectively awesome, but The Libertines get 5's all around for being one of the coolest bands ever anyway. So 5.

Decent. Nothing mind blowing. 3.5

Wilco. 5

Not necessarily my favorite thing, but credit where credit is due... this is a great album. 5

Had me. Lost me. But for what it's worth, kudos for the pre-80's eighties sound. 2

Good job Neil. 4.5

Didn't like this nearly as much as I thought I would, but a good album just the same. 3.75

Been listening to this since I was fourteen. It never gets old. I still remember the exact moment I first heard Metallica as if it were yesterday. Master of Puppets. Truly undeniable. One of modern music's greatest achievements, across all genres, and as far as greatest metal albums are concerned, only Slayer's Reign in Blood even comes close to this true masterpiece. There isn't a high enough number. Rest in power Cliff Burton.

Pure love. 5

Kinda sorta loved this. Five for originality. Five for chanteusery. And a big five for the line, "if sex were an Olympic sport we'd have won the gold". 5

If David Bowie and T. Rex made me want to kill myself. 2

Whatever this is, I love it!! 5

The angle of the dangle is adversely proportionate to the heat of the beat. Classic prog. 5

Go ahead. Give Ray Charles less than a five. I fucking DARE you!! 5

😐. 3. Barely.

Hell. Yeah. 5

This is a fine album. But I have not clue one as to what about it necessitates interaction with my ears prior to my demise. 3

The saxophone. One of a gazillion reasons why the 80's is my favorite musical decade. Love the alligator mouth trio of Broken>Head Over Heels>Broken. But not quite a five, I'm afraid. 4.5

More props than Arsenio Hall, you say? On point!

Post 80's top 40 pop music absolutely sucks. "Take On Me" by Ah-Ha is better than anything Taylor Swift ever did. 2. (Feeling generous)

I can't decide whether to give this a 4 or a high 3. I liked it, though.

This was totally new to me. Never even heard of it. Not bad. 3

Good job, Neil. 4

Incomprehensibly depressing. Wish I could give it a three for the poetry, but I just can't do it. Ugh...2

Cold chillin' in effect!! Saw PE open for U2. It was awesome. Another game changer for me. 5

Is this album proof that a murderer with bad hair can't be all that bad? Was Jack the Ripper a sixty foot sea serpent from Scotland? Did I take this job for a quick buck? We may never know the answer to these questions. That being said, this is the definition of a masterpiece, my favorite Christmas music, hands down, and Darlene Love is an angel. 5

Cool. Interesting. Ahead of it's time. 3.75

Paradise By the Dashboard Light is one of the greatest rock n roll songs ever recorded, and this is a great album. 5

Don't know about this one. Hard to see. Obviously great. Original. Influential. Can't pull the trigger on a five, though. 4

Nah. 2

Dig Dinosaur Jr. But this didn't really do it for me. 3

I dig Iggy Pop, but I did not like this and I didn't think it was very good and I don't think it belongs on the list. 2

Am I the only one who thinks that Siouxsie sounds like Geddy Lee? This wasn't my favorite thing, but gets points for originality. 3

80's pop meets punk new wave. Cyndi Lauper makes it her own. SO much fun listening to this! What a voice!! BIG 5!!

Tom Waits is an American treasure. The throat clearing on Frank's Wild Years alone is enough for me to give this masterpiece of beautiful weirdness a five. LOVE!! 5

Lay still, Lenore, I'm coming? Big iron, indeed! 3.5

I liked this. All over the place and all good stuff. 3.75

Good job, Neil. 5

Finally some Zappa!! 5

I don't even know what to say about this. Not remotely what I expected. Liked it quite a bit, actually. Thought most of the music was really good. Points, as always, for being eclectic. The in-between dj stuff got a little old, though. 3.85

I love Nico. And I love These Days. But I didn't love this album. I wanted to love it. But I only liked it. And only a little. 3

Le Tiger is cool. 4

Didn't like this as much as the other Adele we got, but still think she's cool. 3

Classic. 5

Classic. 5

This was pleasant to listen to. Until it wasn't. Every artist should be required to include a cheesy intro on every album they record. 3

I gotta have more harpsichord!! Classic psychedelia. 3

Classic. 5

The Chili Peppers pretty much lost me after Mother's Milk (which damn well better be on the list because it's a fucking masterpiece). Blood Sugar Sex Magic was great, but I could see the direction they were going and it didn't interest me. I just find most of post BSSM Peppers to be boring. Californication, not unlike their live performance, rocks for a few seconds, but then settles into an hour plus of mild funk and weird ballads. No thanks. 3

Cool. Weird. But not necessarily my cup of juice. But genius nonetheless. 4

I'm plenty down with hot metal and methadrine, but this isn't really my thing. I suppose it's alright for what it is, though. Goth? 3

First time hearing this. Cool. Groovy. 4

Not sure if this was worth interrupting my satanic death metal Friday, but I guess it's ok. It is The King, after all. And I never knew that true love travelled on a gravel road, so that's something. Guess I'll be moving to the country...but I digress. 3.65

Great album. 5

Solid effort for a debut, but nothing really memorable here. 3

Wish these guys were still around...need them now more than ever. 5

Can't find anything wrong here. Lotsa fun. 5

Classic classic rock. 5

Obviously, Stevie Wonder is a genius. Obviously, this album is a masterpiece. And obviously I'm giving it a five. But this album generator has taught me something I am somewhat surprised to learn. I'm just not that into Stevie Wonder. Weird.

YES!!! 5

Good not great. Like not love. 3.5

Rock n Roll for lonely hobbits. 3

Bowie. 4

I get that this is good. I get that it's unique. I liked a few tracks, like Bombs Over Baghdad. Otherwise, I still don't get it. I'm just not an Outkast fan, I guess. 3.5

I liked this. It was fun. 3.7

Oh yeah. Dig that swampy gumbo. 5

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Elvis Costello is cool. But kind of boring. 3

Is this fool trying to be a 90's version of Scott Walker? Keep dreamin' buddy!! I'm giving this a four because it's so weird and out of the box for something recorded in 1996. And I didn't hate it. 4.

Had to go to YouTube because for some reason Spotify only has a three song EP version of this? Get your shit together Spotify! And then practically every song was interrupted by ads? Get your shit together YouTube!! Solid album, though. Our House gets a five, but the entire package lands just shy of 4. 3.7

NOT my thing. 2.3

Meh. 3

My head also speaks. 5

Open any dictionary and look up the definition of the word masterpiece. It will say, "see Joni Mitchell's 'Blue'". 5

I guessed the most sounds!! I win!! Ha Ha!! 5

I have to be in a particular place to appreciate Sinatra, and since I don't drink anymore, I'm never in that place. But I actually enjoyed this. Even more than the Rundgren. 5

Die hard, old school Springsteen Heads might call Born in the USA a sellout. Ignore them. How great is this album? It's biggest hit, Dancing in the Dark, was an afterthought, written in a matter of hours, after the album was already complete, because Springsteen's manager wanted a single. The title track was originally recorded with an acoustic guitar and a four track for the Nebraska album but didn't make the cut. Springsteen shows up at the studio one day with a new arrangement, shows it to the band, and they nail it on the first take. Darlington County was the soundtrack to my middle school spring break trips, rolling past the flat empty cornfields of southern Illinois. Glory Days was the soundtrack to my senior summer. Downbound Train - "Now I work down at the carwash, where all it ever does is rain". Damn. Bruce Springsteen is an American treasure, and Born in the USA, perhaps his crowning achievement, is a masterpiece of classic American Rock -n- Roll. A perfect album. I too learned more from a three minute record than I ever learned in school. No retreat baby. No surrender.

Overrated. 3

This was like listening to The Rolling Stones, but then Elvis suddenly bursts through Mick's chest to sing one, but then T-Rex clubs Elvis over the head and grabs the mic for a couple, and then I guess... rockabilly? This is good rock-'n'-roll, but I'm not hearing anything overly special here. Chaka Khan. 3

Today I am a grumpy old man full of fuck you punk rock energy, so I was not expecting to enjoy this as much as I did. REALLY good stuff. 5

Not sure about this one. Per Yoda, difficult to see. I'm going with 3.

I did not enjoy this album, and I don't know how anybody could. The exception being Praise You, I think this actually belongs on a list of albums to avoid listening to because it could result in your death. 2

I love this band and I enjoyed this album. 4

"Her ass is a spaceship I want to ride." Awesome. 3.75

Yay Van!! 5

I found the beats to be jarring and dissonant, but I enjoyed the dreamy vocals and spacey synthesizers, as well as the more soulful, jazzy stuff. There is music on this album. Take note, Fatboy. 3

Can't say enough about this one so I won't say anything. 5

I met Johnny Cash once. In Utah. He was hitchhiking. I picked him up. We smoked cigarettes and talked about Bigfoot and I dropped him off at a little honky tonk just west of the salt flats. Just kidding. 5

Kanye West has nothing on KRS-One. Nothing. 3

Ignoring the absolute musical crime that closes this album, I liked the cool, chill, mellow grooves...but not as much as I thought I would. 3.1

First time hearing this. Loved it. What a voice! 5

Jefferson Airplane is not my favorite late sixties psychedelic bay area rock band. In fact, they're not even my favorite Jefferson Airplane. I listen to Jefferson Starship and Starship way more often. But this is a solid album. White Rabbit obviously a masterpiece and Embryonic Journey is pure beauty love. 3.7

My experience listening to this album I can only describe as pleasant. 3.8

I could have done without this. That's fifty one minutes and twenty one seconds of my life I'll never retrieve. How do you fuck up "Stand by Me"? Puzzled as to how this makes the list. But I guess it might make a good soundtrack to a suicide. 2

Somebody recommend this album to Gene Clark. This is how it's done, Gene. I imagine Springsteen sitting on the edge of his bed in a T-shirt and jeans, with his acoustic guitar, harmonica, and four track, the only light in the room coming in through the window on a late afternoon in the fall. Except it's Nebraska outside instead of Jersey. There's not much more you really need to know about great American rock-'n'-roll. 5

I like Elastica. 3.3

Now we're talkin! Following a masterpiece with a masterpiece, 1989's Disintegration was a return to form for The Cure, after 1987's overtly pop flavored Kiss Me Kiss Me Kiss Me won them wider popularity with the help of MTV favorite Just Like Heaven, a perfect song if ever there was one. Disintegration was The Cure's peak. Their Black Album without the sellout aspect. Great stuff. 5

Despite "Every Breath You Take" being one of the greatest musical crimes ever committed to tape, I went into this prepared to give it a five. Then I heard "Mother" and that was that. Great album, though. 4

Another solid effort from these guys. Very little not to like here. 4

Third Eno so far...not as good as the other two. 3

I'll quote Butthead on this one. "What the hell is this crap?" A French Bob Dylan cover? Only Charlotte Gainsbourg is allowed to do that. I really tried to put my "objective listener" hat on for this, but I was already in a grumpy mood going in and suffering through this oddity didn't help any. And although my one dimensional nature did allow me to appreciate the one mild rocker found here, and one other song that was pretty cool (Who Knows Where the Time Goes ?) (Who knows how this album made the list?) I must throw down a big fat 2 for my review. Sorry not sorry Fairport. 2

This was not nearly as depressing as I thought it would be, so I guess that's a good thing. 3

Ok, ok. I get it. Everything Radiohead ever did is great. Thom Yorke's shit smells like rainbows. Johnny Greenwood plays guitar better than Jesus. Whatever. If it weren't for "I Might Be Wrong" and "Knives Out" I would have hated this. How is any of this incomprehensible mess worthy of a greatest list? I had to listen to The Bends just to rinse the taste out of my ears. The other Radiohead albums the list has sent me so far (Hail to the Thief, Kid A, and In Rainbows) I thought were good, solid albums, even if I did question their necessity. But I'm afraid Amnesiac is a bridge too far. 2

This was partly kind of what I expected and partly not what I expected at all. Liked it more than I thought I would. 4

Not bad. 3

Boring. Unremarkable. 2

Another clinic in songwriting from the greatest rock-'n'-roll band of all time. 5

A lot to like here. I particularly liked "As Ugly As I Seem" and "I'm Lonely (But I Ain't That Lonely Yet). Neil Young all over that shit! 4
