Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Mar 07 2024

This was a good intro to the generator I think. It was definitely good background listening. The harsh edges of the voice worked really well with the classic pop-rock sound. Might need to listen again to engage with it a bit more though as it was purely background listening.

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Mar 08 2024

I got nothing out of this album. It felt very generic and while I'm sure that makes it easy listening... I just didn't vibe.

A Hard Day's Night by Beatles
Mar 11 2024

This is fine. I've always preferred the Stones to the Beatles, but I don't dislike it. I'm sad I am not the Eggman though. Or the Walrus.

Bryter Layter by Nick Drake
Mar 12 2024

Seemed ok. Only heard it as background noise. Barely remember it so I guess it was forgettable...

Mar 18 2024

Never been my thing, but it does have some pleasing beats, and there is a talent I can't deny. Still not at the top of my listen list.

Grievous Angel by Gram Parsons
Mar 20 2024

Solid country bumpkinning. I enjoyed it, but wasn't blown away. Didn't get the "Rock 'n' Roll" element the wiki professed to. Felt very standard country. Good twang.

Mar 22 2024

Fun, solid tunes, little bit weird, but in a good way. I could get into The Zutons...

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Mar 26 2024

Looked into the history of this one. Very interesting. Vive la revolution

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Mar 27 2024

Youtube music transitioned this into The Beatles when the album finished and I didn't notice a change. 'Nuff said.

The Renaissance by Q-Tip
Mar 28 2024

Hm. I feel very little about this barring a slight irritation at the voice. Maybe it's the wrong day, but it's a pass from ch'boi.

Rarely can a man sound like a chainsaw cutting through a tortoiseshell in a hailstorm and still be enjoyable. Tom Waits is a unique specimen, in the best way.

Apr 08 2024

Didn't realise how little I knew about Bob Dylan. I just assumed I knew stuff because it's Bob Dylan, a household name. Turns out I didn't even know he sang Blowin' in the Wind - which I quite enjoy... Now having listened to the whole album, I quite enjoyed it. It was simple, but I kinda felt that was right for where I'm at today, so yeah. Bob Dylan scores favourably.

Live And Dangerous by Thin Lizzy
Apr 15 2024

My kind of background vibes. And foreground vibes... But I was busy. Never intentionally listened to Thin Lizzy before, but I had a great time

A Love Supreme by John Coltrane
Apr 24 2024

A more energetic jazz than Miles Davis. A good time.

Post Orgasmic Chill by Skunk Anansie
Apr 26 2024

Hard edges in a good way. Would listen again.

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel
Apr 29 2024

I think this could be a nice chill listen. It just wasn't what I wanted at the time I think.

Hearts And Bones by Paul Simon
May 01 2024

It's chill easy listening for a sleepy me at 8:00am in a hotel room. So it gets a solid passing grade from me!

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
May 07 2024

It's Bowie. A little weird, but always a jam.

Rum Sodomy & The Lash by The Pogues
May 10 2024

No notes. Good times. No brain went into analysing this

Electric Prunes by The Electric Prunes
May 16 2024

I like the sound. Particularly "Get me to the world on time". will listen to more.

Live At Leeds by The Who
May 24 2024

Enjoyable. No further notes.
