Tapestry

Carole King

4/5

Baffling that this is from 1971. Feels ahead of its time in style and quality. Good listen - had never listened to a full Carole King album before and I'm glad I now have.

Tea for the Tillerman

Cat Stevens

3/5

A lot of songs I had heard before, but the flow of the album makes them all roll together nicely.

Seventeen Seconds

The Cure

3/5

I like later albums better. This is fine and spooky but I probably won't put it on again

Here's Little Richard

Little Richard

4/5

this kinda just rips

Blur

3/5

An interesting weird album. I think I've heard better Blur albums but I get how Song 2 has endured and I see the creativity and indie oddity that Albarn exploded with in Gorillaz start to fester here.

It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us Back

Public Enemy

4/5

first Tony Hawk song that came up in this list (Bring the Noise). This record is incredible hip-hop. A standout among an era of hip-hop I generally really like.

Youth And Young Manhood

Kings of Leon

2/5

A lot of songs feel like they're twice as long as they should be.

Want One

Rufus Wainwright

2/5

Sleepy vocals and very boisterous backing music. Not my jam.

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

Bad Moon Rising is a bop. There's probably better CCR but this is solid.

Chicago Transit Authority

Chicago

3/5

Chicago is pretty good

Fleet Foxes

3/5

Sleepy but really good

A Nod Is As Good As A Wink To A Blind Horse

Faces

3/5

Meat Is Murder

The Smiths

3/5

Been a while since I listened to The Smiths but the aching beauty of depression still comes through.

Larks' Tongues In Aspic

King Crimson

3/5

to prog or not to prog. Discordant hoopla that is super interesting but not something I'll go back to often. I respect it, though.

Bubble And Scrape

Sebadoh

5/5

Where has this been all my life. This album is incredible. It leans largely on indie rock sensibilities but often veers into other genre blends. Just a kick-ass album.

1984

Van Halen

4/5

Pure '80s vibes. A tight album with a lot of memorable bangers.

Haunted Dancehall

The Sabres Of Paradise

2/5

Not my bag, but I could see dropping acid to this

Brown Sugar

D'Angelo

2/5

Funky but not for me

Germs

5/5

Incredible hardcore/punk album. Absolutely rips.
