Moondance by Van Morrison
Apr 28 2024

Reminds me of Mom. So many great songs. I prefer Eric Burton for this style of singer. A bit more raw maybe.

Rumours by Fleetwood Mac
Apr 30 2024

Great album. Silver Springs should have made the cut, amazing song.

Guero by Beck
May 01 2024
Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
May 02 2024

Great album. Silver Springs should have made the cut, amazing song.

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
May 03 2024

One of my all-time favorites. You can hear how influential they were on many bands.

Scum by Napalm Death
May 05 2024

Oof

Arise by Sepultura
May 08 2024
The Stranger by Billy Joel
May 09 2024

Not really my jam. maybe too theatrical for my taste

May 10 2024

Another talented individual who's is such an asshole that it takes away from his brilliance. He's so far stuck up his own ass and it plays out in the music. Still a pretty good album.

My Generation by The Who
May 11 2024

My generation comes in like a train. You can start to see where they are going. From “borrowing” black music to forming their own sound.

May 13 2024

My uncle had me listen to this when I was 14-15 because I was getting into punk. This and the Stooges. I loved it and still do. Such energy!

Synchronicity by The Police
May 14 2024

Um… the Police really suck. I just don’t get it. It’s jazz rock which is done way better by Steely Dan. Sting is a massive douche bag. He’s like the Bono of England. Boo this band.

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
May 15 2024

I weas surprised by this album. It seems like a great album to clean the house to, nice mix of energy and groove.

1984 by Van Halen
May 16 2024

What a joyous album. You can't help but smile and shake your assets!

Kings Of The Wild Frontier by Adam & The Ants
May 17 2024

I have heard more songs from that album through various playlist that I really didn't know Was Adam and the Ants. I really liked what I heard. The sound of the drums were a lot of fun.

The Band by The Band
May 18 2024

Such great lyrics. The night they drive old Dixie down is a top 50 song of all time for me.

Mott by Mott The Hoople
May 19 2024

Wow, who does this sound like…. It’s everything you want from David Bowie except it’s missing David Bowie.

Beggars Banquet by The Rolling Stones
May 20 2024

A British dude signing country, Wut? oh yeah Wild horses is one of my favorite Stones songs. I take it back.

...And Justice For All by Metallica
May 21 2024

do you want 9 minute complex thrash metal? Um yes please! Ride the Lightning and Kill em All are slightly better imho.

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
May 22 2024

What a terrible album cover! Just why? Album has lots of memories tied to it though. This was a very early band I fell in love with and probably over listened to the point where I just hear it now and am not amazed anymore. Probably a shame on my end.

Rip It Up by Orange Juice
May 23 2024

I do like Rip it Up. Probably felt ahead of it's time. most of the songs felt like filler though to me.

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
May 25 2024

Probably my least favorite White Stripes albums.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
May 26 2024

I did not hear anything special on this album. Blur is the much better band from this era.

Heaux Tales by Jazmine Sullivan
May 27 2024

Not my jam

Low by David Bowie
May 28 2024

I don't think I have ever listened to this album all the way through. In classic Bowie style, he writes a couple of singles to appease the part time fans record labels then does what ever the fuck he wants. Personally, maybe I'm a casual fan because I want more songs like Sound and Vision, but God bless him for doing what he wants on his terms.

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
May 29 2024

I gave this a fair try to hear why Kendrick is considered one of the best rappers, I guess I don't listen to enough rap to understand the nuances of what makes him great. Interesting to listen to, but probably not something I'd revisit.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
May 30 2024

You can start to see how experimental Paul is staring to get with some of these tracks. What a gift he is to the music world. America is a top 50 song of all-time for me.

Liquid Swords by GZA
May 31 2024

I like this style of rap better than most. it almost feels like indie rap.

Odelay by Beck
Jun 01 2024

Great Beck album probably my favorite of his.

Ctrl by SZA
Jun 02 2024

I was surprised by this artist. It feels like rap over indie. Still not my favorite genre but I can appreciate the style and effort to do something new.

Jun 03 2024

First punk album that sounded less hardcore than everything I had listened to before that. I adore this album and I wish we could have seen were they would have gone had he hadn’t pass.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Jun 04 2024

Probably my favorite and most listened to White Strips album

Opus Dei by Laibach
Jun 05 2024

I can hear there influence.

Music for the Masses by Depeche Mode
Jun 06 2024

One of my favorite voices from the 80's-90's the rest of the band is no slouch either.

Brilliant Corners by Thelonious Monk
Jun 10 2024

I'm a Coltrane guy. Love the Bass and drums on this album though.

Parachutes by Coldplay
Jun 11 2024

Wish they hadn't polished their sound so much in their last few albums. The first three albums were special.

Maverick A Strike by Finley Quaye
Jun 12 2024

Where is the line with cultural appropriation and honoring another culture begin and end? I don't know.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Jun 13 2024

This album was one of the ones that my parents had and I listened to quite a bit. It has held up for me. When my only source of music was either my parents collection or what was on the radio, this album showed me a crunchier guitar that I would continue to love with other artists.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Jun 15 2024
Jun 17 2024

Nothing compares to you is such a great song. I feel like she didn't have a cohesive album though. Some pop some soul, and some that mix the two. The best songs are were she blends the two in my opinion.
