Foxbase Alpha by Saint Etienne

This album bored me to tears. A whole HOUR of trance bs. I could barely differentiate between tracks, and if I wasn’t listening to this at work it might’ve put me to sleep. 1/5

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Sep 10 2024

Combination of the 2 - Love the guitar solo, plus the chorus is fun I Need a Man to Love - Backup vocals are fun (oh no!), the intro kicks ass. This one's a little jazzier Summertime - Slower, stringier. Joplin's voice needs louder, more jamming type guitars for me. Not a skip, but not a favorite Piece of My Heart - I actually know this one, still rocks. Slower than I remember though... Turtle Blues - Very bluesy, fun guitars. Love the claps. Not usually a fan of live, but it works here. Oh, Sweet Mary - Another cool guitar solo. Almost western? makes me think of cowboys for some reason Ball and Chain - This one's real quiet. Another really bluesy one. Love a long last track. Very cool album. I don't usually like live stuff, but I didn't mind this. Not sure if I'm a huge fan of Janice Joplin's voice, but I like the rest enough that it didn't bother me at all. 4/5

Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen
Sep 11 2024

I like the vibe of the music, but I don’t care for Springsteen’s vocals so much. They’re not bad, per-say, but nothing that’s gonna stick in my head. No skips, but nothing I’d return to either. All the songs sound the same, and exactly like I’d imagine a parody of Bruce Springsteen would sound too. A filler album. 3/5

21 by Adele
Sep 12 2024

I actually like this one more than I thought. I haven’t really listened to Adele since this first came out, so it was fun to come back to some of these old songs that were popular when I was a kid. 4/5

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Sep 13 2024

This one was tons of fun! Very poppy, and super catchy. Even most of the album tracks had me tapping my toes. A couple skips in the middle, otherwise a fantastic album.

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Sep 14 2024

Generally speaking, this is not my kind of music. It’s not bad, not by a long shot, but not something you d ever choose to revisit. That said, one love and three little birds give me nostalgia for Hurricane Harbor, and Exodus was pretty cool with the horns. Not a bad time overall. 3/5

Sep 15 2024

Not really a fan of this one. Something about the backing tracks and the group dynamic were probably really cool when this came out, but just kinda sound dorky now. 2/5

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Sep 17 2024

I like The Beach Boys, but this album is something different that I wasn’t expecting. Wouldn’t it be nice, God only knows, and sloop John b remind me of six flags, so it was good to hear them again. The rest of the album wasn’t super memorable, but it was a fine time listening. This feels like one of those times when the art is revolutionary for the time, but almost 60 years later only the big hits feel worth revisiting. 3/5
