Sheer Heart Attack

Queen

4/5

Rockin' and very art rock sound. It reminded me of Rocky Horror music.

This Year's Model

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

5/5

Band On The Run

Paul McCartney and Wings

4/5

Songs From The Big Chair

Tears For Fears

4/5

There are a few bangers that are always a good listen, but I don't love the album as a whole. It's interesting to listen to the "b sides", but I don't exactly enjoy them. I know they were exploring psychological turmoil and social issues, and I appreciate that.

Grace

Jeff Buckley

5/5

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

4/5

The Fat Of The Land

The Prodigy

4/5

Loved dancing to prodigy at industrial clubs in the late 90's. It's a great album that reflects the anger and cynicism at that time. It's better in a dance club. Not really the kind of album you sit around listening to.

Fred Neil

3/5

At first I thought I would hate this album with that droney folky voice. As I listened on, I found it more and more interesting and wondered about its place in music history. He definitely had some artiistc chops and seemed to be on the cutting edge of what was happening at the time.

Parklife

Blur

3/5

Creative and fun for a couple of listens, but it's really Damon Albarn playing around with different genres and taking everyone along for the ride. I think he's gotten better at that since this album. I was there for some of it, but got a little bored with some songs.

Fear and Whiskey

Mekons

5/5

Country and punky and gritty. Love it!

The Stone Roses

5/5

I love this album so much. The melodies are amazing and it's got psychedelia and New Wave and indie rock. It's just about perfect. Only thing is that if you listen to the lyrics, it is pretty creepy.

Live And Dangerous

Thin Lizzy

4/5

Not a big fan of live albums, but Thin Lizzy is a whole lot of classic rock fun.

Will The Circle Be Unbroken

Nitty Gritty Dirt Band

4/5

This is just good country/folk music. Super pleasant to listen to.

Being There

Wilco

3/5

Pleasant. Boring. Samey.

Marcus Garvey

Burning Spear

4/5

Great, for Reggae. It's meaningful and intricate music that takes a lot of talent to play. This album is fantastic, but no matter how good reggae is, I just can't listen to it for more than two songs.

Funeral

Arcade Fire

Tusk

Fleetwood Mac

Ryan Adams

2/5

I want to like him, but just don't. Definitely appreciate the more stripped down, singer songwriter style and country flavor of the music. It's just dishwater sounding to me.
