Coat Of Many Colors
Dolly Parton
This album is a bit more country than I usually listen to, and I didn't enjoy it as much because of that. I can hear how the Dixie Chicks were inspired by some of these tracks, especially "Coat of Many Colors." "Early Morning Breeze" and "Here I Am" are probably my favorites, and the ones I'd be most likely to listen to on my own.

Brothers In Arms
Dire Straits
This is more my speed. I didn’t think that I’d heard of Dire Straits, but I definitely knew “Money for Nothing.” A lot of these songs are so close to what I’d listen to normally, but just a touch too 80s / sad girl energy. I still downloaded a few songs for the vibes. Also their album covers are absolutely sick from a graphic design perspective.

Machine Head
Deep Purple
Definitely more hard/metal than most of the rock music I listen to, but loaded with lots of cool guitar riffs and solid drum beats AND Smoke on the Water! I don’t think I’d listen to most of these songs on my own but I can see it being a great album for the right person.

At Fillmore East
The Allman Brothers Band
I’m vibing with this - lots of blues undertones and amazing guitar playing. Great. Definitely the kind of album I’d play front to back without needing to skip a single song. I got stuck on the 20 minute song in the middle of the album and won’t get to finish it today, but very solid stuff.

Bringing It All Back Home
Bob Dylan
I am liking this album a lot more than expected. It's very low-key and good energy.

This is actually a pretty fun album, it just doesn't feel right for me. I don't feel compelled to download any of these songs, but it's a cool vibe and at a different time in my life I would have really liked it.

Not my style. Much more country, but good for what it is.

The Auteurs
Very vibey. I keep hoping I'll come across songs on this album that I love, but I only downloaded one - "Idiot Brother," and if anything, that was maybe more for the title. I'd listen through this album again, there just aren't any outlier songs I'd like to make a part of my daily life.

Otis Blue/Otis Redding Sings Soul
Otis Redding
I just started the first song and can already tell this is going to be a phenomenal album. But I love Otis Redding, so I may be biased. It's also crazy to see how many of my favorite songs are just re-records of songs off this album. The more I listen the more I love this album. I'm just downloading every song at this point.

Proud Mary is the highlight of this album. I thought the rest was rather adequate but nothing stuck out to me. Still, good vibes throughout.

Really interesting and distinct from every other album I’ve been listening to. I was surprised that I liked some of these songs and recognized “Venom.”

I really like this album. It's a good vibe. Not part of my daily listening, but it's a kind of mellow rock that I am enjoying.
