Perfect Rock album with the perfect lineup of members. They could have just made this record and then disappeared from the face of the earth, and they would still be considered legends. For me personally, the album has enormous credit for completely changing the face of the Rock n Roll scene at the time, bringing the good old sound in a raw and naked way.

This is the best singer of this century. She only made 4 albums. And she couldn't make any bad songs! It was great to remember 25. I haven't listened to it in years. "Hello" still gives the same goosebumps from when it was the most listened to song in the world in 2016. Goosebumps! This is the word that defines her voice throughout her career, but especially on this album she was splendid. And even more especially in songs that give the impression that this woman is capable of absolutely anything, having only her voice and the piano in possession. 5 stars, of course!

Great Album! Very well recorded to a live album from 1963. Sam was a great show man!

Absolute Bang! Live album with such a massive sound. Purple at their prime: no mistakes! Actually, you can hear mistakes in their performances. Even just a few. But that's what make this album so great: Their REAL! They're actually playing. And playing very well!

This was an excellent surprise. Revolver is one of the most indispensable albums of my life. Revolutionary album; magnificent songs; Beatles at their peak: no mistakes! 10/10

High Quality Jazz! I had never heard of Charles Mingus before. It was a beautiful surprise! I liked!

A 2000's Classic! It's so good to hear Chester's voice again. It's huge for a first album. In The End is an imortal song!

I still can't believe that even after all these years, this album still gives me goosebumps. Definitely an immortal album that breathes fresh air to this day

Interesting discovery! It was like listening to Alanis Morissette in a grunge band. I feel like one day wasn't enough to properly appreciate this. I'll need a few more rounds to digest it properly. I wonder where I was, I had never heard this before...

Fantastic! The best that the 70s sound had, compressed into a single album. I was won over at the exact moment the chords of Rikki Don't Lose That Number began to sound. Many artists from my homeland (Brazil) speak very highly of Steely Dan. This was the perfect opportunity for me to delve deeper into their work!

Today was the day to dust off my old CD to enjoy some of this music that has already been imprinted in my soul since I was a teenager. There's not much to say. Absolute classic that never gets old

When a woman with a voice as powerful as this can achieve the sweetest melodies, something special is certainly about to come. It wasn't a surprise at all. When I looked at the album cover I already expected to hear a spectacular voice and I was more than right. It was a pleasant surprise!

Translate text with your camera This is probably my favorite album.

I don't even talk about that...

If today I am a great admirer of Dylan's work, I owe it to this album, which was responsible for opening the doors to this universe that this gentleman provides us with. Absolute Classic!

In my opinion, Eagles represents the perfect stereotype of an American rock band from the 70's. Rock of the highest quality, of course! It's unbelievable that they managed to make an album with such sound quality on its first release. Take it Easy is in every classic collection from the 70s, for sure!

It's not my kind of music, for sure. But in such a decadent pop music scene, this album sounds like a breath of fresh air. Very well done and well produced. But as I said before: It's not something I'll hear every day.

Another CD that had its dust removed today. It was great to remember this album that I've been listening to since I was a teenager. To this day, if I want to introduce Heavy Metal to someone who has never had contact with the genre, this is the album I recommend every time, after all, it is synonymous with this type of sound!

Black Sabbath with Ozzy didn't make a single bad album. I don't think they even made a single bad song at that time. Classic band, with 4 classic members, playing in a raw way and making classic albums. There is nothing more to say!

Punk Rock albums tend to be Russian roulette: you don't know if you're going to hear a masterpiece or a piece of shit. But today was a pleasant surprise. I've been hearing about Magazine for a long time, but only today I had my first experience. Excellent sound for a 1978 album, good songs, very well performed... perfect album!

A golden age disco album. Absolutely everything that came out at that time is either very good or has become a classic. I didn't know CHIC. But when I looked at the album cover I already knew it was going to be BANG!

This album has a timeless sound that, even after almost five decades, still sounds like the music of a young rebellious teenager. Blitzkrieg Bop has become a classic that tops all playlists and collections of Punk Rock Anthems. Legendary!

Agressive and Young! I Kinda Like It!! It's like Nirvana meeting Green Day.

Without a doubt, this is the most different album I've ever heard. Especially because I had never heard an album of just acapella songs before. It's not the kind of thing to listen to casually. It has to be felt and observed, every little thing. It definitely has its value! The voices are very well harmonized. They make whoever listens to them feel comfortable and welcomed.

Perfect Rock album with the perfect lineup of members. They could have just made this record and then disappeared from the face of the earth, and they would still be considered legends. For me personally, the album has enormous credit for completely changing the face of the Rock n Roll scene at the time, bringing the good old sound in a raw and naked way.

I always thought that the band Roxy Music didn't have much "More Than This". I was apparently mistaken. Pleasant surprise; great album!

Great rap album! It has the sound of the 2000s. Nostalgic and heavy!

Probably one of the best Goth Rock albums I've ever heard. One Hundred Year and The Hanging Garden top most playlists and compilations of the genre. A curious fact is that I had never heard this entire album from start to finish in the sequence of tracks in which it was released. However, I already knew all the songs, precisely because they appear on all Goth Rock playlists. And in fact: they work much better together and in this sequence. Excellent Album!

Nowadays we live in a disgusting cult of celebrities. This could have started much sooner if these young Brits hadn't had the courage to express their anger. There is no way to imagine a world without Punk Rock and, without a doubt, this album is the definitive album of this genre. Album that made the great Rockstars come down from their pedestals as celestial and untouchable beings, in the presence of a band that spoke to the people.

I'm not a great connoisseur of Talking Heads' work, much less David Byrne. I had never even heard of Brian eno. So all I expected was Psycho Killer type, but it wasn't. It was actually a very interesting musical experience. An experimental album that definitely has its value and must be enjoyed calmly. But it's not something I'll hear every day.

A rap album with a much thicker sound than I'm used to hearing. It was a pleasant surprise!

It's impressive how an album based on such simple vocals and guitars can be so stupendous and comfortable to listen to. I didn't know Leonard Cohen. Little did I know that he is the composer of the legendary "Hallelujah". And even fewer knew that this was his first album. Still, the voice delivery and interpretation, and especially the lyrics, can be divine.

The Temptations is one of the musical groups that has been on my waiting list for a long time. Then the day arrived and everything I heard met my expectations. The wonderful songs My Girl and Papa Was A Rolling Stone have been part of my life for years and this album gave me everything I expected and more. Sensational! What else can I say? That's my kind of music!

Instruments very well fitted, songs very well made and performed. A beautiful album to listen to on a Wednesday afternoon while drinking tea.

Have you ever heard an album that made you feel like you were coming home? Well then: this is exactly the feeling this album gives me. Van Morrisson had been on my waiting list for some time and this was a pleasant surprise.

Honestly, I've never heard someone mix so many dissonant musical genres before without it sounding weird. On the contrary, it sounds fantastic. Her voice sounds like magic. Even though it's not really my type of music, I was impressed. I've proven that she really is what people say she is and this is just her first album... I can't wait for the others!

One of my top 20 favorite of all time for sure. And probably the best debut album of all time. No mistakes e no surprises here. Just the best that rock n roll has to offer!

I believe that's the first time I hear a jazz fusion album. Still got a lot to know. Boys like Zappa has been on my waiting list for a long time. Anyway. That was a great experience. I had to listen twice to get the feeling but it worked: Now i'm totaly into Jazz Fusion and i want to hear more! 4 stars that's the vote.

Dylan between 65-76 it's just perfect. There's not much to say about this. An album with Maggies Farm, Tambourine Man and Baby Blue must to be a Great album!

Brazil Mentioned! Brazil Mentioned! So good to hear something from my motherland. And what an album! Revolutionary and psychedelic. It represents some of the best Brazilian music has to offer. VIVA RITA LEE!!

I felt under the influence of ecstasy and was completely sober. What kind of music is this? How can the union of so many different sounds make you so "fast"? It's definitely not the kind of thing I hear every day, but it's definitely the first time I've heard something I can't understand. Therefore I am not able to apply a true assessment. I will give 3 stars

This is the best singer of this century. She only made 4 albums. And she couldn't make any bad songs! It was great to remember 25. I haven't listened to it in years. "Hello" still gives the same goosebumps from when it was the most listened to song in the world in 2016. Goosebumps! This is the word that defines her voice throughout her career, but especially on this album she was splendid. And even more especially in songs that give the impression that this woman is capable of absolutely anything, having only her voice and the piano in possession. 5 stars, of course!

An icon of the 2000s. Amy is greatly missed today, for her originality and talent. Back To Black is certainly one of the 5 best albums of the 2000s. The rating will be nothing other than 5 stars.

Okay this is boring. Seems like a background of some clothes shop.

At certain times, Barry invites you to a soft or lively dance in a ballroom with a jazz group playing in the background. At other times, Barry invites you for a late-night car ride. And at another point, he puts you to sleep on a bed of nails, along with your own mental discomforts. This was, without a doubt, a very ambiguous and intriguing experience.

Well, this is a classic! I'm feelling like 16 again! Jump was my clock alarm every morning when i was in highschool and Panama was the Bus Anthem! Even though I'm drowning in this feeling of nostalgia, there's something about this album that brings a sense of youth to whoever listens. Because it's fast and quick hahahaha. Jokes Apart. This album has never gotten old. This still smells like teenage spirit, full of pimples and horny! Exactly how I once was.

You know that feeling of not understanding a single word of the song's lyrics? That's the feeling! The only word I understood from the entire album was actually the song title "Obrigado" (which means Thank You) because it's in my native language (Portuguese). But the question is: WHO CARES ABOUT THIS? My body didn't stop moving for a single moment. The instruments are very well played and have a captivating rhythm. It's very similar to another genre of music here in Brazil called "Lambada". And that means that I really felt at home listening to this album.

This is probably the best album of the 2000s. The songs on this album still sound fresh even 18 years later. If I want to show someone older what it means to be young in my generation, I'll show them this album. Plus: A Certain Romance is one of the best songs I've ever heard in my life. The feeling of being inside an old 69 Mustang at 100 miles per hour that this song gives me at its climax is still an indescribable emotion for me.

If my band does an album like joshua's tree, I swear, we're gonna dissapear from earth and be legends forever. But U2 did not. Achtung Baby proves that they never were lazy. They're always trying to bring something new and fresh. Inovating their music. This is not one of my favorite U2 albuns, but certainly is a classic!

I listened to the 1998 remastered version of this album and I honestly can't say if it makes any difference to the original release. But the fact is: This 1956 album seems much better recorded than many from the following decade. The quality of the instrumentals is impressive. I had never heard an album from the 50s of such quality. And what about Sinatra? This man is synonymous with Love Songs. His voice is a landmark of the 40s and 50s that resonates to this day. The romanticism of his interpretations makes me travel to a time I've never been to and think: Where do we human beings go wrong? Where did all this romanticism and emotions go? Did all of this really die back then? I don't know. But this is the sensation conveyed by Sinatra's voice: A journey through time where the world was completely different from the one we live in.

Okay, that's my kind of music. It's impressive how many good albums came out in 1967. It's a year that never ceases to surprise me. I had Buffalo Springfield on my list for a long time and this was a pleasant surprise.

Iggy Pop sounds like a dangerous and sexy version of David Bowie. It seems like everything he sings is really cool. He could be singing about farts. I don't care. He's so cool! I honestly don't know much about his work. I know some songs but I've had some of their albums on my list for some time. It was a pleasant surprise.

If you are going to make a list of at least 15 albums that "you must hear before you die", or "you would take to a desert island", this album has to be on this list. I believe that if an alien from Mars starts studying the history of the human race, at some point he will have to go through What's Going On to understand some things. The song that gives the album its name is also among the best compositions of all time. This isn't even my opinion, it's facts! And the rating cannot be anything other than 5 stars.

Definitely a unique experience. It is not easy to consume this type of material. Especially when there are no lyrics in an album that are almost 2 hours long (I almost didn't have time to listen to it today, for example). But despite it not being an album for casual listening and not really being my type of music, it is very well conceived and produced for an album from the beginning of the 1970s. I'll leave it with 3 stars.

Lennon is probably the reason I'm here today. I probably wouldn't even enjoy music if in the past I hadn't come into contact with his voice and his unique way of writing songs about his feelings in a way that no one else can. Since the Beatles, he has already explored the personal side he imprinted on his songs, but especially in his solo career, like on this album, it is very clear how personal these songs are, which gives the feeling of being extremely real and establishing a direct connection between Lennon and the listener. So it's not uncommon to hear stories from people who claim that "Lennon spoke to me." Lennon put heart and soul into his songs like no one else... Besides, of course, a certain Paul, but that's a story for another day.

This is without a doubt one of the best discoveries I made this year. A true Soul masterpiece. I just keep asking myself (I did my homework) why an album with the importance almost as great as Marvin Gaye's "What's Going On" had never reached my ears, not even through the film that bears the same name . Music never ceases to amaze me!

To my delight, this is the second time this week that I have received an Iggy Pop's album. From the same year! It still sounds dangerous and sexy, but the difference between this album and "The Idiot" is that here now we have excellent compositions from the beginning to the end of the album, including songs like "Lust For Life", "Success", "Neighborhood Threat" and the classic "The Passenger" which I knew from the voice of Siouxsie Sioux. I was very happy to discover that the relationship between Iggy and Bowie wasn't just a figment of my imagination. Bowie in fact produced the album and composed some of the songs. It is possible to notice in the album, some elements of what would become Post Punk and Goth Rock in the future. Even New Wave is possible to notice in the album's sound. My rule is clear: Every album that catches my attention the first time gets 5 stars!

I honestly don't have much to say about the technical aspect of this album's sound. This is very similar to several other records contemporaneous with this one. It comes from England, it sounds alternative, beautiful melodies, heavy sound... Nothing that I haven't heard in the Brit-pop scene of the 90s. But what caught my attention in a curious way, is that throughout the album I I can feel the sensation of coming home, from somewhere far away. And whether you know it or not, the last song on the album is precisely about that. Like I said, I can't say if it was intentional. But if it is, it's an impressive detail.

Listening to an album by the guy who sings "You got a Friend in Me" was one of the most random things that could have happened today. His voice takes me back to peaceful childhood days, free from worries and responsibilities. I feel at home. This album has very interesting songs that deal with heavier and even sad themes. And the interesting thing is that the same voice that sings a song as happy as "Toy Story" can easily adapt to songs that bring other types of feelings.

This is probably the best rap album of all time. At least the best i've heard. The samples are perfect, the voices and the lyrics are perfect and the album got some deep vibe that really makes you trip and chill.

Excellent rap album. Very well recorded, produced and conceived. I had never heard of Missy Elliot, but I loved her voice.

Beautiful and soft melodies. Her voice is as delicate as the touch of a silk sheet. All of this added to the beautiful harmonies that invite you to sit, rest your back and enjoy the winds of a Wednesday afternoon.

They say a divorce can destroy a man's life. Well, as far as I know it wasn't Marvin's ex-wife who shot him, on the contrary, he recorded an entire album about it. As always, everything Marvin touches turns to gold. Another 5-star and error-free album

Do you know what the best part of a 25-minute album is? You can listen to it over and over again hehe! And even more so when it comes to Buddy Holly and the golden age of Rock n roll. It's impossible to hear without moving your hips. That was a great start to Friday!!

It's fascinating that these guys make such strange experiences seem fun and captivating. It completely smells like the 60s!

I Should Coco was an album that was part of my adolescence, but I had never stopped to listen to the other Supergrass albums. I found it impressive that the band found so much musical maturity from one album to the next. The first album is still and always will be a classic, but I really liked this one too!

Road rock from the 70s. Songs to drive at night. Guitar solos and lyrics about life. About being alive. That's definitely my kind of music. Springsteen is one of the artists living on my waiting list. But with the discovery of this album, from now on I'm going to rush to get to know the others in depth.

A good and well produced rap album. Practically instrumental, few lyrics, but with a great vibe. It was a pleasant surprise!

The Smiths is one of my comfort bands and one of my favorites of all time. I know all the songs off the tip of my tongue. It's always a pleasure to listen to The Smiths. Strangeways is an album that I've learned to love a lot over the years and it's a shame that they stopped at that. For me, they were at their technical and artistic peak. But some bands are just like that: They pass through our existence like a comet, a true phenomenon that leaves its mark on anyone who comes into contact with this music. Morrissey, Mars, Joyce and Andy were the voice, heart, pulse and soul of an entire generation!

Definitely not one of my favorite Radiohead albums. But it's always a pleasure to hear Thom Yorke's melancholy voice. I have a very serious problem with the post OK Computer albums released by Radiohead. Albums like this, Kid A, Amnesiac and others, never really appealed to me. But it definitely has its value.

That girl really had the soul of jazz. I don't like to compare albuns, but that one is way more spiritual than Back To Black. Has a different soul. It's more catchy. More engaging. I don't know how to explain it, but it sounds even sexier! Very pleasant surprise

Probably one of the best albums of the 2000s. I've heard a lot during my life about how a true Punk should behave. I heard a lot about how a real Punk should act, what kind of sound he should play, how to play and where to play. But for me, the true identity of Punk is just one: Not to fear! And Green Day is a band that never feared the kind of evil that said Punk shouldn't be pop or conceptual. Because Punk was never afraid of being pop. Punk was never afraid of anything!

It's definitely not my type of music. But it certainly has its value!

Another great rap album that i get from this page. This have been on my list for a long time and today, I finally heard this masterpiece. I honestly ain't got much to say. The Rap and Hip-Hop world it's kinda new to me. But I know how to recognize a hit when a I hear one. And definetely, this album got a lot of them!

The Legend John Lee Hooker. No mistakes here. I always take a step back before I listen to an album full of collabs. I ain't got a good experience with that. But like i said: no mistakes here. C'mon, it's blues! It's JLH! But I'll take a especial note to the first song with Carlos Santana. I really didn't knew that I was in need to hear that! Awesome!

I'm personally a big fan of that fuzz guitar sound that existed in the 90s. Some of my favorite bands have that kind of guitar sound. And honestly, it's very easy to win me over with just that. If it combines pop rock elements: even more so! So in short: I loved it!

It has a kind of 70s sound that I feel was lost in the following decade amidst so many synthesizers and metallic instruments. I'm not saying the 80s sound is bad, just different. But there are some cases where an artist manages to bring back some 1970s aspect to the contemporary sound in an excellent mix. Good examples of this are the albums that Fleetwood Mac released in the 80s: Mirage (1982) and Tango in The Night (1987). And today I just discovered another excellent example. And once again I ask myself: where was I all this time that I never heard of these guys? Prefab Sprout managed to bring to Steve McQueen the musical essence from two different decades, without hiding the fact that it was released in 1985, all bathed in a top quality pop sound. Besides, it's been a while since I've heard of an album with a name as badass as that, seriously, even I wanted to be called Steve McQueen! That's it: I loved it!

Another great album from 1968! I'm very sure that magical things happened this year. The last years of the 60s are at odds with everything that exists when we talk about music, and here it couldn't be any different.

Another beautiful discovery from the 70s. This decade never ceases to amaze me!

A true classic from the 70s. Some of these songs have been part of the soundtrack of my life for years. 5 stars!

Bro, I love the 90s so much! I always end up discovering things like this. I really liked the dynamics between the songs that vary between different emotions from one to another. It has 2 real hits ("Stupid Girl" and "I'm Only Happy When It Rains"). In other words: This is definitely not garbage! Despite the name hahaha

I've been having very bad experiences with the Jazz albums sent to me on this site. So much so that in my summary it says that the genre I like least is Jazz, but that's not true. I just wasn't lucky! Miles Davis is an artist whose name I've heard somewhere but I've never come into contact with his work and I have to say, this is an excellent example that a Jazz album can be fun and entertaining. I don't give it 5 stars because of my philosophy that music should convey a message, even if it's an instrumental album. One of two things: Either I don't know enough about Jazz to understand the message of this album, or there is no message at all. Either way, it's a great album!

Another good album from the 2000s. I really liked the mix between the indie rock sound and elements of R&B. It's also very interesting that the album's sound seems to be at least a decade ahead of its time. Very good discovery!

I have the defect of prejudging an album based on its year of release. I know that there are several examples of good albums from 2010 onwards, but even so, I end up taking a step back. With that in mind and said, this is not a perfect example. I personally don't like those synthetic and almost robotic vocals that permeated the decade. But I recognize that, musically speaking, there is a very good mix between pop and contemporary R&B and hip-hop. All of this stuck together in a kind of Lo-fi vibes with lyrics. I really liked the instrumental part, but it's not something I'll choose to listen to on a Saturday night while enjoying a good whiskey. No! But it's an excellent background to spend the night with some friends, playing Minecraft!

I became a huge fan of Steely Dan this year a few months ago when the site sent me Pretzel Logic. I was instantly swept off my feet by the first lulls of Rikki Don't Lose That Number. So to sum it up well: I'm totally into them! It's my kind of music, no mistakes! It's the kind of 70's road rock band that I've been looking for for a long time. I thought I had already seen all the good ones, but now in 2024 I am blessed with Steely Dan. And this review of mine has nothing to do with the album itself. I just wanted to say thank you to this site! 5 Stars!

I feel 15 years old again! Some of Aerosmith's songs are immortalized in my life and it was a pleasant surprise to re-listen to Toys in The Attic. Classics like Walk The Line and Sweet Emotion were part of the soundtrack of my adolescence and I still get goosebumps listening to them today. Easy 5 Stars!

Initially I was very excited about the fact that it was the third day in a row that an album from the 70s came to me. This decade is actually my favorite. So I googled the album and discovered it was Experimental Rock. Not only that. It's one of the precursors of Krautrock, which I had never come into contact with before. I figured it would be good to start exploring the genre by drinking straight from the CAN. Jokes. But anyway. It was an excellent discovery. The album follows a psychedelic line, almost kissing progressive rock, but leaving experimentalism in evidence. I've had experiences with experimental albums before and I have to say, they weren't very good. But here it is not the case. Experimental sounds have to be strange and dissonant in themselves, but on this record, despite following this rule, everything sounds very cohesive! Nice surprise, I'll leave 4 stars.

The genius, Zappa! Previously, in the past, I tried to get in touch with Zappa's work. I heard, if I'm not mistaken, Joe Garage, I don't remember the year (guess it was realeased in 79). Anyway. It wasn't a good experience at the time. I was around 15 or 16 years old and as I gained musical maturity, getting to know new genres and sharpening my ears as a musician, I had in my mind that it was just a matter of time before I heard Zappa once again and then I would have a good experience. I was fucking right! It's truly different from anything I've ever heard, and at the same time it's everything I've ever heard before. I still need to process it properly because musicality like this cannot be processed in mind overnight. So I'll just leave 5 stars and walk away confused for a while...

To be honest, when I read that it was a post-punk album from the mid 80s, I already imagined the kind of thing similar to "The Cure" or "Siouxsie and The Banshees" (bands I really love) but Maybe it was a very gothic ideal thought I have regarding Post-punk in general. So I tried to neutralize myself when listening to this album and to my surprise, I was VERY wrong! The album moves in a more Iggy Pop direction and even reminds me a little of American punk-rock bands like X (los angeleeees). There's even a bit of rockabilly in the mix, which made me very happy. Anyway, one more album that proves two things: 1. Post Punk is one of my favorite genres 2. I'm very easy to please! I don't even remember the last time I gave an album less than 4 stars! Aaaah may it continue like this!

Yesterday I said that I didn't remember the last time I gave less than 4 stars to an album here on this site. Me and my big mouth! I don't really like Synth Pop, at least not as a form of entertainment in itself. It works more for me as a background for anything else I'm doing, especially in the early hours of the morning. So as not to seem like I'm voting solely in the name of my personal taste, I want to highlight that the synthesized vocals and all this plasticized production are not a positive point in the slightest. In fact, it can even be boring and tiring to listen to. But like I said, it works well as a background and I'll probably use these songs on my Minecraft nights!

You know when a song hits you in a totally different way and you start to have familiar, comforting feelings? That's what happened today. I knew the name Robbie Williams, because I've been a huge fan of Oasis and the Gallagher brothers since I was a teenager, and apparently they didn't get along very well in the late 90s, trading public barbs and shit. And like the stupid fan I was, I wore an Oasis shirt as if it were a football team and I've never heard a single Robbie song to this day, at least as far as I know, and I'll explain why. There is a Brazilian forró band called "Nostalgia do Forró" that recorded a Portuguese version of Angels, which I listened to exhaustively when I was a child. So the moment Angels started playing, it was like coming home, to simpler days and away from problems. Other than that, all the prejudices I had regarding Robbie died today listening to this album. This is more than enough reason to give 5 stars!

Glam Rock's ground zero. This is one of the albums that you can listen to over and over again without getting bored. Get it On is a must on every 70s classic playlist!

Another album that proves that the 1970s is my favorite. It's not a perfect album, nor an album that I'll listen to every day, but it's very comfortable to listen to and I could play it all day and I wouldn't get sick of it. I'll leave 4 stars!

This was probably ground zero for Goth Rock. One of the most disconcerting albums in rock history. But still a timeless classic!

Easy 5 stars! I love everything that Bowie did in the 70s. Especially this one! I used to play Life On Mars on my earphones going to school years ago, definetely one of the songs of my life and idk, i spend years without listen this one and it seems a lot better than I used to remember. Actually the intire album is givin me this fellin now. I guess that musical maturity finally came to me hahahaha.

Another artist leaving my waiting list today! Not to lie, I heard Purple Rain a few years ago and I remember being ecstatic and euphoric with this record. For this reason, I already knew that Prince was this eccentric, extravagant and powerful artist. So I went to listen to 1999 with great expectations and was honored with the satisfaction of all of them. This is probably the sexiest album I've ever heard in my life (it competes very well with Marvin Gaye's Let's Get It On), it even gets pornographic at times. The sound quality is impeccable and, once again, Prince's vocals left me entranced and breathless. I'm not a person who likes to dance, but there's no way I can sit still and listen to this. The album suffers a little from the excessive length of the tracks. I think some of the 7 minute songs could be more compact. Apart from that, the album is perfect and was a pleasant surprise!

Today I'm going to do one of the most complicated album reviews I've ever had to do. The time has come to clearly separate what is good music and my personal taste. I never bothered to do this before because I'm not a music critic, just a music lover. Indian music is not one of my favorites. Obviously, as a big Beatles fan that I am, I am very familiar with the name Ravi Shankar and the sound of his sitar. The entire album felt like a hyper-extended version of Within You Without You. But the album fulfills its purpose perfectly. Just as the title of the first song announces, the entire album is like an initial experience for anyone who doesn't know Indian music, a true introductory performance. One fact I would like to highlight is that Ravi is really good at playing the sitar. Everything I knew about this instrument came from George Harrison's songs and it was an extraordinary experience to hear the sound of an expert! In the end, I ended up really liking the album, even though it's not something I'll listen to every day, I feel like this experience brought me something very positive! I will leave an honest 4 star review.

Very good! Excellent rock album from 2000s. Still sounds fresh even after 20 years!

Great discovery! As I usually say: Punk fears nothing! Punk is not afraid of being pop, much less making songs without guitars or with almost no distortion. On the contrary, Punk is purely attitude! And this album has that. I would like to highlight the bassist's work on this album. It's been so long since I've been so excited about the sound of an instrument. Speaking of excitement, I must have listened to this album about 4 times in a row today. I really liked it a lot and it was definitely one of the best discoveries this year! 5 stars!

If I had to summarize what Stevie Wonder is in a single word, it would be "Joy", because that's what he brings us. Once again, the 70s. Just like Bowie, everything Stevie released at that time was a masterpiece. I wanted to highlight the song Bird Of Beauty where Stevie sings in Portuguese (Brazil Mentioned!). Anyway, it is truly an honor to live on the same planet as this genius! Every time Stevie appears, it will be 5 stars automatically!

Another good discovery I made thanks to this site. And this time, this album comes straight from the most psychedelic year in music history. 1967: what a year!

Another good rap album from the 90s. Pleasant surprise!

C O double M O to the N! 2 rap albums in a row, check it out! I loved the samples used in this album. It has a very pleasant vibe to listen to. I had a very wrong idea about rap and hip-hop albums from the 2000s, but this one is making me change that view a little. Nice surprise!

Today we have a classic! There's not much to say about Nevermind that hasn't already been said by millions over the 33 years since it was released. I mean, this album is where it all started for me and a lot of people. I can't imagine being the person I am now without having listened to Nevermind when I was younger. But one thing is for sure: This album hasn't aged a single day! Still smells like teen spirit to this day.

Road trip songs! Yeah! My type of music. Don't have much to say. I'll leave 4 stars.

There's something very special about this album and I can't say exactly what it is. Whether it's the extremely sentimental sound or the lyrics with deep themes... I don't know. But I really liked this one a lot. Fun Fact: I haven't seen Harry Potter in almost 10 years, and when I read that the closing track plays in one of the films I was like "Ah shit, I'm going to have to watch Harry Potter again" hahaha

Everyone who hasn't been living under a rock for the last 2 years has heard of Kate Bush because of the show Stranger Things. No wonder, Running Up That Hill is a great song and Kate Bush is one of the most original singers to have ever appeared. But I'm not sure if I was able to properly digest the work done on The Dreaming. The feeling I have is that something is missing. Maybe it's something I'll come across throughout her discography, but while The Dreaming isn't something I'll listen to every day, it definitely has its value. I'm going to leave 3 stars today, but maybe that rating will change over time.

BRAZIL MENTIONED!! I know that Stan Getz is not Brazilian. But he did everything for it. In addition to the legendary album recorded with João Gilberto (which displaced the Beatles' A Hard Day's Night from #1 in the charts, suck it) there is also this one with Charlie Byrd. And these two albums together helped to spread the music of my homeland throughout the world. What rating other than 5 stars could I give, right?

Adele's Prime! It seems like yesterday that the songs from this album exploded all over the world. But on the contrary, it has been more than a decade. I grew up listening to Adele's songs. It's part of the soundtrack of my life. I say again, just as I did in the 25 review, that this is the greatest singer of this century. Her songs will echo forever!

This is the first Rap/Hip-Hop album I heard in my life, when I was 16 years old. I discovered "It Was a Good Day" while playing GTA: San Andreas in a video game many years ago, and that led me to want to know more about this world of Rap. For the record, Rap/Hip-Hop, Soul, Jazz and Funk were not part of my life until then. I have my roots coming from Rock n' Roll, Blues and music from my country, Brazil (Samba, Forró, Baião, Bossa Nova, Sertanejo). I remember exactly the feeling of listening to this album for the first time. The album starts with an intro that immediately gives away what the mood of the album will be and then it becomes one of the heaviest (if not the heaviest) songs I've ever heard in my life. "When Will They Shoot?" It doesn't owe anything to a Trash Metal song from the 80s when we talk about weight. To this day I consider this the best Rap album I've ever heard and Ice Cube is still my favorite Rapper, and that probably won't change anytime soon hahaha. So now, many years later, I see that The Predator is in fact one of the most influential albums on my musical taste, because thanks to the songs on this album and the samples, I discovered artists like The Isley Brothers, Wilson Pickett and later, several other Soul music artists from the 60s and 70s such as Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, Aretha Franklin and many others. Not to mention that now, I have a completely open mind to Rap/Hip-Hop, knowing from this album, artists like Snoop Dog, Dre, 2Pac, Too $hort, NWA and many others. Damn, I had no idea how important this album was going to be in my life. Anyway, it was great to be able to remember this album today!!

One of the easiest 5-star ratings I've ever given. Absolute classic! I don't have much to say. Tom Sawyer was one of the anthems of my adolescence, XYZ is one of my favorite instrumental songs and Limelight is beautiful! In fact, all 7 songs are absolute classics. Probably one of the best albums in history.

It was very fun to listen to it! Another good hip-hop album coming from this site :)

This is the second Kate Bush album that I have received from this site in a short period of time. In the review of The Dreaming I had said that I needed time to properly digest the songs on that album. Some time passed and things got better. Of course, the fact that today we have an album that starts with one of the best songs of the 80s (Running Up That Hill) helps a lot to get into the mood. Even though it sounds dissonant with reality, the depth she reaches with her voice and her lyrics are extremely real and genuine, apart from the fact that the album's sound is based on the best of the 80s. Today I'm going to give 4 stars, again, with the possibility of giving 5 next time ahaha!

No Shit! Another Hip-Hop album? That must be the third time in the week! But that's ok cause this one is good too.

now, THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!! I had already heard some things by Sly & The Family Stone separately on the Soul & Funk playlists I listen to, but I had never listened to an entire album before. It was something that had been on my list for a long time and it was a pleasant surprise to be able to experience this iconic musical group!

What a way to start the week, huh? This is one of my favorite albums from the second half of the 70s (yes, I have to separate this decade into two to talk about my favorite albums without forgetting any). I'm not into celebrity culture, but if I was, I'd probably be a crazy Debbie Harry's groupie!

There are some great songs on this record, but I'm not sure they work well together as an album. Experiencing the album as a whole gives a disjointed feeling between the songs, even though the sound and content of the songs are very good. I will leave 3 stars today.

Very cool! I had never heard an Afro-Cuban Jazz album before, but I can imagine a lot of songs that I know that draw from the source of this album. It's basically Jazz with insane Latin percussions; I loved it!

Okaaay. So we have classic today! This is the proof that it ain't need to fill an album with bunch of songs to be great. In here, we only got 5. 4 classics and 1 weird cousin (moon child it's coo coo). But the album is fantastic!

Pink Floyd is probably my favorite band. If it's not, it's one of them. And absolutely everything that appears from them here on this site (at least between 1970 and 1994) will receive automatic 5 stars. Anyway, there's nothing I can say without sounding like a crazy fanboy. So I'm going to shut my mouth and give silent thanks that today's album is Wish You Were Here!

A 2000s classic!! Got some good memories with Seven Nation Army from the time I was learning how to play guitar. Good Album!

This was an interesting discovery. An album that really needs to be felt to be understood. Fun Fact: This album isn't on Spotify (at least not in my country) so I had to turn to YouTube and luckily I found it. There I had the opportunity to read the comments section and I wanted to highlight one of them here: "A very special album. I revisit this every few years - it is it's own universe."

S E X !!! This is probably my favorite Marvin Gaye's album. I think that never in the history of music has anyone managed to communicate and convey the sensations of... you know what, like Marvin did on this record. About the title track, a renowned Brazilian journalist once said: "...it presents such an engaging atmosphere that I have no doubt that 1/3 of children born since that year on the planet have been conceived to the sound of the song."

They sound like coitus interruptus! A premature ejaculation. Although they have a lot of potential good songs and some good ideas, they are completely wasted, because you can't just fill an album with a bunch of one and a half minute songs and think that's cool. Other than that, they actually sound cool at times, and for that reason alone I won't give them the slightest rating. 2 stars.

So we had the King today! There are a lot of things that can be said about BB King, his songs and his legendary guitar licks, played by the equally legendary Lucille Guitar. But what I wanted to highlight about this album, is precisely the fact that it is live. The interaction with the audience and the stories he tells between songs (sometimes even during the song) give an impressive feeling of immersion, apart from the fact that this type of interaction between audience and artist no longer happens nowadays. BB King and the audience are almost talking to each other, as if they were at a Sunday barbecue sitting around a bar table. A very intimate atmosphere! Love it, 5 stars!

Another Great Rap/Hip-Hop album from this site! I really liked the samples on this one!

So we got the Shankar's daughter today! She's a great singer and this is a really good album! 4 stars.

Interesting discovery. Very good!

Neil Young, a living legend! One of the biggest shames I have as a musician and music lover is never having explored this icon's discography in depth. Of course, the most famous albums from the 70s have been part of the soundtrack of my life for a long time, but here today is an album that I had never heard of before. And I really don't want to say anything about the record. Nana not today. I just want to sit my ass down in the chair and listen to this record over and over again and reflect on where I was and what I was doing all these years for me to have never heard this masterpiece before. So if you'll excuse me... (5 stars, of course)

This is probably the most difficult album to review in just one paragraph. There is so much, so much details that can be said about these songs, that it would be enough to write a book. Pet Sound is huge! Absolutely everything about this album is simply huge! It captures the entire essence of the deepest human feelings, from genuine joy (Wouldn't It Be Nice) to deep sadness (Caroline, No), passing through and addressing themes such as loneliness and emptiness (That's Not Me, I Just Wasn't Made For This Times) and even the greatest of feelings of love, represented by one of the most perfect songs that human beings have ever made: God Only Knows! Like I said, a book would easily be written if I were to say everything I think about this album. Long Live to the Genius Brian Wilson!

Kraftwerk had been on my list for a long time so I was very happy to know that today would be the day to try one of their albums. I know they must have sounded very innovative at the time with that sound, but I don't think this record has aged so well. My main criticism of this album is that it doesn't grab you. You can test things, bring innovative sounds, recording techniques never seen before, but it's no use if you can't connect with those who listen. I didn't research it but I believe this is a work from the very beginning of Kraftwerk's career and although I criticize it, I give full credit to the band for these innovative experimentalisms and I hope to see more of this on the next albums but of course, I hope it is more attractive. I'll leave 3 stars.

I'm not going to lie, this one was pretty boring. It has its moments but overall it's pretty boring.

I had never heard Cheap Trick before (although the name was familiar) and mind you, that's why the 70s is my favorite, because albums like that come out every day and even though I don't know these songs, I had so much fun listening to them, which makes me very suspicious to speak and give notes, as they will almost always be good reviews and high star marks. But what to do, right? Rock n' Roll can't go wrong! The only song I actually knew was the beautiful cover of Ain't That a Shame, which I had already heard by John Lennon's voice (and which until today I didn't know it was a Fats Domino's song). At the beginning of 'Surrender' (which is apparently their most popular song) he says "this song is the opening song to our latest album which was released this week" I felt like I was in a time machine, like I was actually there 46 years ago. By the way, great choice of place to do a show. The Japanese women are hysterical and scream at the top of their lungs the entire show! hahaha

I listen to many albums every day throughout the years and what most of these albums have in common is that almost all of them are from a time that I didn't live through. But there was a specific period in my life, when I was in high school, when everything seemed more intense and albums like I Should Coco were part of my experience of what it was like to live at that time. I really lived intensely the things and people of my time and albums like this, Stone Roses, some by Oasis, Primal Scream are albums that connect me directly with that era every time I listen to them. I can smell the hormones, the cheap drinks, the crazy parties... Yes, there is a feeling of nostalgia, but I'm glad that this time has passed, and when I want to remember those good times, I Should Coco and Supergrass will be there. always available!

Very good rock album! I would like to highlight the great mix of classic rock n' roll with House Music and the good songs: Take Your Mama, Tits On The Radio, Filthy/Gorgeous and the interesting cover of Comfortably Numb.

I'm coming back from a night of drinking, I'm completely hungover. There was no better time to listen to a Willie Nelson album! I mean, I feel like I'm in heaven, shit, I threw up during September Song, it was just beautiful!

That's a hell of a way to start a Monday!! The lendary Rock n' Roll Star: Jerry Lee Lewis! Hell Yeah! That's my type of music, no mistakes here. 5 stars!

Nice album! Always good to hear Alex Turner's voice. There's some real good song in it!

Great rap album! Cypress Hill is one of the classics of the early 90s! I grew up listening to How I Could Just Killed Man, as it was played on GTA SA radio stations hahaha so yes, this is all very familiar to me. I'll leave 4 stars.
