I did not like the opener.
I donβt seem to like most of the melodies even if the rest of the song sounds interesting (pilgrimage)

Notes:
The vibe is so close to being there. I love the experimental elements, the genre blending, the vocals, and the whole idea, but it needs to go a little further.

Tricky
Iβm going into this with very little info on the artist or even what the genre is. Starting out, Iβm not sure how to feel. I definitely feel uneasy and confused. I suspect this is probably brilliantly giving the feelings and visuals that were intended. It clicked starting with Ponderosa and got deeper after that. I bet some of this would hit at a rave. As someone who plays the flute I really appreciate Aftermath.

Sufjan Stevens
I like the calm start with the light flute. These songs are either boring or even annoying(come on! Feel the illinois) for me so far, but lyrically Iβm interested, and it had a nice flow. Maybe Iβll come back to try to understand the stories.

You Know Iβm No Good - love the tropical feel
Back to Black
Notes:
Her voice was so good. Iβm going into this with a little familiarity, but Iβve never heard the entire album. I get mafioso noir jazzy vibes, and thatβs sexy and beautiful.

I Just Want to See His Face
Let it Loose
Shine a Light
Notes:
The beginning of this album makes me wanna dance like a wild woman. I enjoyed the album in general, but I feel like a couple songs could have been cut for the beginning to end journey. I really like how the blues and gospel elements are mixed into some songs (like βLet it Looseβ). βStop Breaking Downβ sounded most like the general sound I associate with The Rolling Stones (very limited listening history), but there was a very nice range of sounds on this album. The intro to Shine a Light was so unexpected and beautiful.

I Do Not Want What I Haven't Got
Sinead O'Connor
Loves:
Three Babies :(
Black Boys on Mopeds
Nothing Compares 2 U
The Last Day of our Acquaintance
Notes:
The intro to the first song definitely sets a mood, and her voice with the strings hits. This album (so far) is so painful, but she makes it so beautiful, pain and acceptance Iβm assuming this album is deeply personal, and Iβm totally invested in her story. Black Boys on Mopeds tore me apart. What a powerful political song! Her voice and those chords drew me into that song so much. Nothing Compares 2 U, fr. Instantly one of my favorite songs, all time. The name of the album just clicked with the last song. Chefβs kiss.

Notes:
Iβm going into this having listened to a handful of popular Prince songs a lot and some deeper cuts a few times. Little Red Corvette is one of my all time favorite songs. I like β1999β (song), but it is at the bottom of the Prince songs I know well.

Loves:

Notes:
The historical recollections through storytelling are what made this album for me. Some songs really hit, but I havenβt smoked enough of this bowl to completely get into all of them. I did end up looking up Marcus Garvey and learning some stuff, which I think may have been the intension. Oh, and Iβm able to feel his emotions through his vocals on Jordan River.

I LOVED this album, but I didnβt expect to. Iβve heard a handful of the most popular U2 songs, and those never piqued my curiosity to search out more. But this album is different. The only song I didnβt love was 40, but I get it and I get why itβs there. Now Iβm wondering if I should listen to more of their albums in their entirety.
