Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters
Feb 21 2024

I'm happy there is popular modern rock music but the Foo Fighters have never been my favorite. Can't quite put my finger on why. I liked the album, particularly their softer/slower songs, but don't see myself going back to it too often. Might just have to get more used to their sound which is very distinct.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Feb 22 2024

Forever a defining record of my youth. Really top heavy with the hits which remain the stars of the album, the latter half feels a bit more eccentric. Love this album and the summery feelings it evokes. Associations with hitchhiking in Maui and SUP rider playing this on the ride to the beach.

Feb 23 2024

Really enjoyed this. The classics felt strongly supported by the songs I knew less well. Not too long, smooth, succinct, rambling...

Feb 24 2024

I love the songs I know, liked the songs I did not. I feel like when discovering new songs I need the lyrics in front of me. Classic cover + some true classics.

It's Too Late to Stop Now by Van Morrison
Feb 25 2024

Liked it but long and songs started to blend together; he's got a great voice though.

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Feb 27 2024

Really groovy + modern sounding — unique voice and tight sound.

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen
Feb 28 2024

I listened to this on my morning bike ride, cloudy over the Williamsburg Bridge, and it really hit. Short and sweet and had never heard any of the songs.

Fulfillingness' First Finale by Stevie Wonder
Mar 02 2024

Stevie Wonder has a golden voice and interesting songs. I'd never listened to this album and found some new gems on there.

Mar 03 2024

This was cool — old school, punk, rough around the edges. Did not catch much of the lyrics (listened mostly in the gym) but enjoyed the music.

Tonight's The Night by Neil Young
Mar 04 2024

So good. Neil Young's voice is like a warm night underneath the stars.

Can't Buy A Thrill by Steely Dan
Mar 05 2024

Breezy album that doesn't take itself too seriously and has some songs that are easy to listen to and fun.

Mar 06 2024

Music that doesn't require too much thinking — soft, easy to digest lyrics and backing. felt like i was on a cruise ship. i enjoyed.

Guero by Beck
Mar 07 2024

I knew the heavier top half more than the lighter back half. Enjoyed both. Classic CD album

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Mar 18 2024

A really nice album for a Sunday morning; soft and introspective; also cool cover, what is up with that.

Mar 19 2024

Love Queen but wasn't crazy about it and am disappointed in that.

Shalimar by Rahul Dev Burman
Mar 20 2024

It's good to listen to something new but I don't think I'll be going back to this much!

The Specials by The Specials
Apr 14 2024

This album was special. Island vibes and steady rhythms gave way to catchy vocals.

Rising Above Bedlam by Jah Wobble's Invaders Of The Heart
Apr 15 2024

I had no idea what to expect here, and thought it was awesome. Sounded otherworldly.

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Apr 16 2024

A mix of hopeful and somber, I had never listened to these guys much – but they make some smooth classic music.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
May 17 2024

Prettty good

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
May 18 2024

A great encapsulation of early hip hop, effortlessly cool songs.

American Pie by Don McLean
May 19 2024

Really enjoyed it -- he has a great voice and catchy songs

You Want It Darker by Leonard Cohen
May 20 2024

The somber vocals laid over the haunting music made this a powerful, reflective, melancholy record.

xx by The xx
May 21 2024

I thought this was beautiful. It was somber and hypnotizing, with the singers bouncing off each other nicely

25 by Adele

Kid A by Radiohead

Remedy by Basement Jaxx

Brothers by The Black Keys
