Blood Sugar Sex Magik

Red Hot Chili Peppers

3/5

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Beatles

4/5

Within you without you......wow. I had never heard that song until today. So amazing. Obviously little ole Lucy is a masterpiece. A day in the life *chef's kiss* just a wonderful way to end the album. Very wonderful overall, better than I thought honestly. Need to dive into the Beatle's songs I haven't heard before because they have such an extensive discography

At San Quentin

Johnny Cash

3/5

Sooo good, loved the insight into his life when he was talking inbetween songs. I listened to it on the way home from work, and before going out with savanna and ellie, ellie requested we listen to A Boy Named Sue....magical coincidence. I'd never heard that song before Friday.

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

Loved this. I've always listened to Credence, but never fully dove into their discography, so it was nice to listen to this from start to finish. The suggested songs that came after this album were top tier too.

Nevermind

Nirvana

2/5

Honestly not my favorite, I like a lot of the songs on there because I've grown up listening to them, but they just sound angry. I like happier music these days. Very very talented group of musicians though there's no denying that

Brothers In Arms

Dire Straits

2/5

Can definitely tell this was made when it was with the choice of language... I like the jazzy aspect of some of the songs mixed with the soft rock. Very 80s. Idk feels kind of too patriotic for me

All Hope Is Gone

Slipknot

1/5

Blahhhhhhh I don't like this!!!!! Scary. Don't want to hear someone yell in my ear 'we will burn your cities down' I think they are making some points though? About America being bad? But the delivery is too much for me

All Things Must Pass

George Harrison

4/5

Top tier that was great to have on in the background while i worked but also made me want to run around in a field or sit by a fire in the middle of nowhere with all my friends

Get Rich Or Die Tryin'

50 Cent

3/5

Go shawty its cho birthday....love it. Didn't listen to this album all the way through yet though so I'm going to have to come back to this

Apple Venus Volume 1

XTC

3/5

I couldn't find this album on Spotify so I didn't listen to it yet :( Love the album cover though!

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

4/5

Divine, beautiful, looooooooove this quirky lil guy. Makes me think of my sweet trip back into society with David when he first introduced me to ole Nicky. Gettin me back in that sweeeet sweet mindset of not giving an absolute single fuck while also caring so deeply at the same time. Putting on my cantstandtogiveanotherfuck helmet again rn as we speak, it's covered in thorny roses but also rainbows and smiles.

The Predator

Ice Cube

2/5

Need to finish it

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

4/5

Absolutely magnificent. I really really liked this. Reminds me of a rock-y credence.

Fear Of Music

Talking Heads

4/5

yuuuuup love the talking heads. I haven't actually heard any of the songs in this album before today, so it was nice to hear a different side of them, not just the popular songs. They have an energy to them that isn't worried about being perceived, idk how to describe it, but it makes me want to be weird and not care one bit about how I'm interpreted

Sea Change

Beck

3/5

Lonesome tears.....whoah man. Good shit. Was literally talking to Mike yesterday about how I was getting into Beck, but I hadn't heard any of the songs on this album. Splendid. I wish there was a liiiittle more range and variety in his songs, but still very good.

Blood, Sweat & Tears

5/5

Truly magnificent. This was a mixture of like 5 genres?? Folk, jazz, rock, bluegrass, soul? I LOVED IT

Highly Evolved

The Vines

2/5

This album confused me. I didn't hate it but I didn't love it. It felt like when the tone changed from song to song I couldn't read the intention behind it.

3 + 3

The Isley Brothers

3/5

Gooood upbeat jazzy soul vibes goin on here.

Wow. I cant believe this was less than a year before he passed away. So dang good and Bridge Over Troubled Water with Fiona????? ok now that was crazy good.

Guero

4/5

Actually love love loved this one. Was hesitant going into it because I had higher expectations for Sea Change when I got that a couple weeks ago but I like this album much better.

Hypnotised

The Undertones

2/5

Kinda gives me my sharona vibes. Overall i have mixed feelings but I did like certain songs, under the boardwalk is good. Nothing to write home abuut but i still like the vibe

Marquee Moon

Television

3/5

reallllly impressive guitar skills damn. I wasn't blown away by the album as a whole, but especially in Marquee Moon and Prove It, that guitar went so hard. Allllmost reminiscent of Pink Floyd in a way, those long guitar strokes and honestly a little bit of the vocals sounds similar with the echoing band in the background.

Dire Straits

2/5

Liked it better than the dire straights album I previously got, but for some reason I just don't vibe with them much

Queen II

Queen

3/5

This one was interesting....thought I'd know every song but not at all! Sounded like freddy wasnt the only one singing too, I liked it! Not my most favorite of Queen songs but i like how they mixed it up

Let It Be

The Replacements

2/5

Looove androgenous I've listened to a cover of that for years! Had no idea they sang that. Nothing crazy to say about this album, good tunes though

Penthouse And Pavement

4/5

Fireeeeee makes me think of the Holly St. days

Muse

5/5

Oh fuuuuuuuuck yeah. Couldn't stop tapping my feet i love this album. Take a bow makes me want to screammmmm. Knights of Cydonia's guitar solo....fire.

Rust Never Sleeps

Neil Young & Crazy Horse

3/5

mixed feeling about this. It's great music but his voice is so unique that the songs sound pretty similar to me. I feel like Jack would love this guy, he probably does.

Dummy

Portishead

2/5

Had kinda a skewed view of them before listening to this. The rip was the only other song I knew by them and this album was v different than that. I like the weirdness though just not my fav

American Idiot

Green Day
