Master Of Puppets
Metallica
Obvious guitar talent and passionate singing (screaming) but not a fan of the…anything, really. Lyrics are a downer, no perceptible melody, had trouble telling when one song ended and another started. There is clearly a market for this, but I’m not it.

Much better than I expected. Some 60’s standards I have heard by other artists, I’ll need to look to see who did them first. Great voice, powerful without the current trend of overdoing it.

Ambient 1/Music For Airports
Brian Eno
I’ve definitely not heard this album…or maybe I have heard it a hundred times, in movies, in the spa, in the airport. It’s exactly what the title says. I am more likely to listen to this again than a lot of albums from the 70s.

Chirping Crickets
Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Given the time this came out, these are groundbreaking songs. A couple on side B are a bit too church-choir to fit with the rest of the record. Very solid, not dated because so many of these songs have been used in movies and or covered often.

Sometimes I Wish We Were An Eagle
Bill Callahan
Like the guitars and drums, the spare arrangements. I also like his voice. Inflections sometimes annoying.
Lyrics are a bit too avant-garde poetry spacy weird for me.
Then came Invocation of Ratiocination, which was both weird and annoying.
My first impression of guys like this is they smarter than me and I just don’t get it. But then I realized he’s just weirder than me, and I still don’t get it.

Look, this guy is very very talented. The music behind the raps is exceptional. The vocal phrasing is excellent. The rhymes are clever and complex. But the lyrics are beneath his talent. I am not the audience for this bitch hating gay bashing adolescent.

I once read a review that said Geddy Lee’s voice was a cross between Robert Plant and Donald Duck. I don’t think it was a compliment.
The instrumental was, however, equally bad.
