Ahhh the soundtrack of my middle/high school dances. I'm kind of surprised they let us listen to this. 😳

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Feb 22 2024

I didn't love it! 😫 Please don't kick me out.

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder
Feb 23 2024

Much better than the other Stevie. Learned a lot about people who sample him!

Led Zeppelin IV by Led Zeppelin
Feb 27 2024

Maybe my favorite entire album of all time.

Led Zeppelin by Led Zeppelin
Feb 28 2024

For some reason I just want to be drunk while I listen to this album.

Born In The U.S.A. by Bruce Springsteen
Feb 29 2024

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Mar 01 2024

I know this is really good music. I just don't have an emotional connection to it.

Eagles by Eagles
Mar 04 2024

You know what? I love those few songs, but I was really disappointed with the rest of the album! I'm going to get kicked out of our club I'm sure.

Damaged by Black Flag
Mar 08 2024

Some good stuff. But we're just so angry...

xx by The xx
Mar 09 2024

I love this album. One of my faves for work background music.

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Mar 10 2024

Love. I want to curl up in his voice and take a nap.

Mar 12 2024

I knew I'd love it, but didn't realize how much. I ended up watching it on YouTube and it's just haunting.

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Mar 15 2024

Too much chaos for me. I can appreciate some elements of it but it just annoys me that it never really comes together.

Arrival by ABBA
Mar 16 2024

Their bangers are bangers. Their other stuff, meh.

Meat Puppets II by Meat Puppets
Mar 17 2024

I don't know how I would have felt about it if I didn't know that three of the songs from Nirvana's Unplugged album were covers from this album. But since I knew that, I heard it as a thread connecting Zeppelin and the Ramones with Nirvana. Yeah his voice is annoying but I really just wanted to go smoke a cigarette in a bar and hear them live with Kurt and the boys.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Mar 19 2024

I bet people love getting high and listening to this at Red Rocks while wearing Keens and man buns. Too mellow for me.

Totally embarrassed that I never knew about Faces. So glad for this app and my aunt & uncle! ☺️ Of course Ron and Rod are amazing but I love the keyboards!

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Mar 21 2024

I LOVE the instrumentals and then feel like the lyrics/vocals kinda ruin it.

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Mar 22 2024

I just can't with the jam band stuff.

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Mar 23 2024

Ok on the heels of a few albums where I thought "I'm so tired of musicians who are just impressed with themselves and don't care about entertainment value unless the music is paired with party favors" it was hard to hear this for the amazing music that it is. I would love to sit in a smoky bar in a big city and listen to this. But as it was I was in the car with my kids screaming and it just ... added to the cacophony. Sorry to the millions of people and Coltrane himself that I have seriously offended.

Time (The Revelator) by Gillian Welch
Mar 24 2024

Some really beautiful songs. I loved April the 14th.

L.A. Woman by The Doors
Mar 26 2024

I forgot how much I love The Doors.

Mar 27 2024

Ahhh the soundtrack of my middle/high school dances. I'm kind of surprised they let us listen to this. 😳

Heroes to Zeros by The Beta Band
Mar 28 2024

I mean, there was nothing terrible about it. I was just bored.

Mar 29 2024

If I'm sticking to my rating system, I WAS more annoyed than impressed. But it's not poor Crosby's fault. I'm just ready for the generator to get away from folk/psychedelic. My Spotify is now almost exclusively recommending Radiohead for me because it thinks that's all I listen to.

Mar 30 2024

So many bad words!! It made me wonder if Eric can still rap Break Ya Neck. I wish he'd play with us. <sigh>

Moon Safari by Air
Apr 01 2024

Some of it was ok, kinda reminded me of Portishead. But overall not really my jam.

The Dreaming by Kate Bush
Apr 04 2024

I couldn't even listen to it. Yuck.

New Wave by The Auteurs
Apr 05 2024

Ok, nothing earth-shattering but nothing too annoying either.

Slippery When Wet by Bon Jovi
Apr 06 2024

I think the scales tipped towards a five on this guy not because it is so good and I didn't realize all of these songs were on one album, but because the playlist Spotify played when it was over was incredible. Cyndi Lauper, Bryan Adams, Toto, Kansas... just so good.

Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Apr 07 2024

Fun fun fun. Much more enjoyable to listen to than lots of other albums on here. But I really want some chips and salsa now.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Apr 09 2024

I've always been somewhat annoyed by Paul Simon's solo stuff. But this is a good album!

Red Dirt Girl by Emmylou Harris
Apr 10 2024

Loved the title track. A little morose for four stars but it is really good.

Apr 11 2024

Sorry, more annoyed than impressed. I know it's Brian Eno... I just can't.

Apr 12 2024

I didn't realize that I associate steel guitar with country music AND The Byrds, yet here we are. Loved it.

The Yes Album by Yes
Apr 13 2024

Unimpressed by the rest of the album but I love I've Seen All Good People. a)I also love how they have the tracks organized in outline format! b)that's all.

With The Beatles by Beatles
Apr 14 2024

I almost gave it a five and then I thought of other Beatles albums that are better and wanted to make room for them. β™₯️

Apr 15 2024

At first I was digging it and as it went on I started to hate it.

Darkness on the Edge of Town by Bruce Springsteen
Apr 16 2024

Just like the Beatles, I had to grade on a curve against his other albums. A five compared with the other albums in the world, but this isn't a five the way Born to Run is a five. Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce!

Morrison Hotel by The Doors
Apr 17 2024

Not my favorite Doors album, but it's still the Doors

Roots by Sepultura
Apr 19 2024

I guess I can't say I listened because I only made it through half of the first song.

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Apr 20 2024

Not as good as the Folsom version, but I love these albums.

Back In Black by AC/DC
Apr 23 2024

Man, some parts of some songs were pushing me towards a five rating. But overall, solid, enjoyable rock-n-roll.

Our Aim Is To Satisfy by Red Snapper
Apr 28 2024

I had Jack and Cal help me rate this and they actually gave it rave reviews.

May 01 2024

There's just something about an album that came out the year you turned 21... Lots of memories. And I was surprised by how many different styles they sampled.

Midnight Ride by Paul Revere & The Raiders
May 02 2024

Pretty good. Never heard of them before this! 😳

Rain Dogs by Tom Waits
May 03 2024

I couldn't do it

Dookie by Green Day
May 04 2024
Lost Souls by Doves
May 05 2024

Perfectly pleasant

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
May 06 2024

Man, I was close to giving this a 5. In the end I couldn't tell if it was Elvis or the glass of wine I was having. But just excellent music.

Rio by Duran Duran
May 08 2024

Love love love. I couldn't give them 5 because I didn't give Elvis 5.

evermore by Taylor Swift
May 09 2024

Lovely, if repetitive.

The College Dropout by Kanye West
May 15 2024

Jesus Walks is a fave. And for all his shortcomings, Kanye can drop a beat.
