Disraeli Gears by Cream
Feb 26 2024

Eric Claptop was guitarist. Spotify description says "fusions of blues, pop, and psychedelia"

1984 by Van Halen
Feb 28 2024

Jump is clearly the best piece Hot for Teacher very blues-influenced I'll Wait sounds like a faint echo of Jump only 33 min

In Utero by Nirvana
Mar 04 2024

first couple songs are pretty bad. Heart Shaped Box beautiful

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
Mar 05 2024

pretty classic rock. toe tapping music. a little boring.

Walking Wounded by Everything But The Girl
Mar 07 2024

Something between Natalie Merchant and Dido. Beautiful. A true album.

The White Album by Beatles
Mar 11 2024

Is ob-la-di subversive? (And who knew it was called that and not Life Goes On?). - Blackbird, gorgeous. - Piggies…anti-capitalist satirical screed? - Revolution 9 feels experimental/trippy - Good Night is beautiful, orchestral lullaby. Kind of boring album though…a lot of songs are dull. Could have been edited down to a regular-length album.

Aja by Steely Dan
Mar 12 2024

opens with very 70s lounge vibe. more easy listening than I was expecting; not rock.

I Against I by Bad Brains
Mar 13 2024

Spotify says mixing punk with reggae, but sounds like a precursor to 90s hard rock. Seems fine, no strong feelings

Mar 14 2024

Kinda boring, sounds like a folk-emo thing with a guy who has a deep voice. Faith/Void is nice: "it's time to put god away" over and over are magnificent lyrics and has a haunting melody.

Blue by Joni Mitchell
Mar 25 2024
C'est Chic by CHIC
Mar 26 2024

Catchy, enjoyable toe-tapping music. "Freak out" song is on here.

Red Headed Stranger by Willie Nelson
Mar 27 2024

Classic folk/country. Nice to have in background. - Blue eyes crying has a spiritual flavor. - O'er the Waves is familiar—like a romcom scene in Europe— but didn't know the title. Very short. - Can I Sleep in Your Arms also country-gospel flavor - Hands on the Wheel classic with some harmonica - Hello Walls sounds old-fashioned/Elvis-like

Throwing Muses by Throwing Muses
Mar 28 2024

Definite bar band vibes. - Status Quo has a bit of a Law of Nature flavor--slightly harder rock, not quite as crazy about the singer's voice and melody - Los Flamingos a little more punk

Mar 29 2024

Has an arthouse feel. Uplifting Black music. - Don't Shoot Guns Down is classic 2020 - Pray up Stay Up has a nice groovy anthem feel

The Stone Roses by The Stone Roses
Apr 01 2024

Nice background music, toe tapping rock with upbeat beat. - Driving South is pretty good blues/southern rock

Be by Common
Apr 02 2024

Good R&B vibes, nice beats

Apr 03 2024

Sounds very old-school. Lots of different instruments used. Good music but didn't catch my interest.

Sunshine Superman by Donovan
Apr 04 2024

Very 60s drug hippie sounding. Influences of Indian music, jazz on one track, and green sleeves type music. Did not catch my interest though.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Apr 05 2024

Son of a Preacher Man. Sounds like 60s feel good jazzy vibes. Part of "symphonic soul" known as the Memphis Sound.

Doggystyle by Snoop Dogg
Apr 17 2024

Pretty standard Snoop Dogg. Gin & Juice is classic. Who am I is the one that sounds like Atomic Dog (George Clinton). Good album musically, but a little repetitive, most songs not landing for me.

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Apr 19 2024

Picked up with The Forest. M is also alright. Others a bit homogenous/boring.
