Can't Buy A Thrill

Steely Dan

4/5

Correct album in a positive vibe. First song has an amazing well known theme that is very pleasant to the ear.

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Kanye West

4/5

Correct album with a commercial sounding, heavy production. Some song can be very long, overall very good.

Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins

3/5

Classic modern rock album with punchy drums and heavy electric guitar riffs. If you like the style you will like the album. I just found Silverfuck extremly horrible for a song.

Back To Black

Amy Winehouse

4/5

Tormented artist second and last studio album. Has a deep and vibrant voice, a nostalgia-given modernized sound. A Good album to listen during 40minutes.

Catch A Fire

Bob Marley & The Wailers

5/5

A classic reggae album by Bob Marley and the Wailers, Catch a Fire expose a joyfull rythmic album with the pronounced sound of Jamaica.

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

3/5

An album by legendary guitarist Jimi Hendrix, Electric Ladyland. A correct album that feel messy with a lack of structure, and which sounds more of a compilation of pleasant jam session rather than a themed studio album. The end of the album would compensate for that missing bit while proving the musical genius of Hendrix with the well known title `All Along the Watchtower`, that would be worth the whole project.

Electric Warrior

T. Rex

4/5

Another more classic from the 70s rock album. The melodies are pleasant, the voice is kind of soft. There is more calm music like `Cosmic Dancer` and `Monolith` or more Rock'n'Roll like `Jeepster`. Overall, a good rock album to listen.

She's So Unusual

Cyndi Lauper

5/5

Cyndi Lauper's debut album She's So Unusual start with a heavy punchy drums on `Money Changes Everything` to continue with the World known Hit song `Girls Just Want to Have Fun`. The style is set and the quality of the production alone is worth the listening. The album is pretty good overall, with a small dislike for the 2 ending title.

Gris Gris

Dr. John

1/5

Debut album of Dr. John Gris-Gris has a very strange vibe. The first song, `Gris-Gris Gumbo Ya Ya` is an horror, the second one, `Danse Kalinda Ba Doom` is worth the listening. While some music have entertaining melody, the whole album is crap and I'm seriously wondering why it even made in a 1001 liste to begin with.

War

4/5

Third album of iconic group U2, War, start with the well known song and hit `Sunday Bloody Sunday`. The album is very good, overall has great dynamics and hits like `Sunday Bloody Sunday` or `New Year's Day` are impressive classic in the music which would catch any ear to listen more carefully.

The Joshua Tree

3/5

While the algorithm thought I should listen to a second album of U2 day after day, so the enthusiasm is probably gone. So, except for the 3 first music, which are a bit repetitive in terms of sonority but very good as they are the album hits, the album is kinda mild. Neither good nor bad. Listened multiple time but don't know what I should think about it.

Green

R.E.M.

4/5

Green album by R.E.M. released on 1988 start with a punchy rocky song. The album is pleasant and goes from a very dynamic sound to a more slow and relaxing through the 40minutes of the album.

Bringing It All Back Home

Bob Dylan

3/5

First album I listened from Bob Dylan. Musically, it's pretty good, well worked, good arrangement. Now for me, it's truely his voice being the deal breaker. Apparently or one like or not, and for me I truely don't like.

The Atomic Mr Basie

Count Basie & His Orchestra

4/5

If you like old cartoons music, this album is for you!

Sign 'O' The Times

Prince

3/5

A calm and correct Rock album by Prince. It was agreable to listen through the piece.

Odessey And Oracle

The Zombies

4/5

A pleasant happy sounding album.

My Generation

The Who

3/5

Correct album, nothing exceptional either

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson

4/5

Another good rocky album from the 70s.

3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...

Arrested Development

4/5

A good Hip-Hop album from the 90s away from the Gangsta Rap that marked that time.

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

4/5

Great album I truely liked it! A bit bluesy, a bit hard-rocky, a good band too.

Thriller

Michael Jackson
