The Dark Side Of The Moon
Pink Floyd
Have had some great nights on shelter island playing poker to this album with college friends. The story of life is unmatched through this album. “No one told you when you run, you missed the starting gun” has always stood out to me as a reflection point and makes me consider my position in this race. And despite trying to get the most out of life it’s always good to come home and warm your bones by the fire

Heartbreaker
Ryan Adams
Enjoyable listen. A few emotional songs about love leaving that I wasn’t expecting from the album after the opening

Siamese Dream
The Smashing Pumpkins
Ever since rock band 3 and hearing cherub rock, I’ve been all in on this album. Warm distorted guitar throughout and always thought the smashing pumpkins had a unique effect on the vocals

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme
Simon & Garfunkel
That’s an album from the 60s that’s for sure. Maybe need to re-listen, the songs were good, just didn’t capture me

The Idiot
Iggy Pop
A poor man’s David Bowie mixed with an American attempt at British underground rock. Wasn’t bad but nothing that special

Madonna
Strange overlay between acoustic guitar and techno. Didn’t know where this album was trying to go. And what’s with the cowboy themed cover art

Vauxhall And I
Morrissey
Still getting a bit of David Bowie in the vocals but enjoyed the album far more than the recent Iggy Pop album. Enjoyed the sound though have a difficult time imagining the setting this is appropriate for

If I Should Fall From Grace With God
The Pogues
Thoroughly Irish with a fun big band made this a great listen despite the niche sound. Send me to the Ring of Kerry.

At Fillmore East
The Allman Brothers Band
To be at this concert. Few jam out like the Allman Brothers. When they say rock and roll was born from blues, this album is a perfect exampl. Like the missing link between ape and neanderthal but it’s right here

Purple Rain
Prince
I was impressed with the complex composition of the songs and I appreciate Prince as a guitarist. That said, people’s deep enthusiasm for him is beyond me

Slanted And Enchanted
Pavement
A little punk rock soft grunge. Can always get behind it as a 90s kid. That said, it isn’t standout by any means

ABBA
Are they all great songs, no, but the album is fun and would love to have been at the disco listening to this in its prime
