5/5
Drops off in the second half, but still some good tracks there. And the first half of the album is about as good as can be. Nostalgia bomb.

Count Basie & His Orchestra
4/5
The Cure
4/5
Great, until the last two tracks ("I'm a Cult Hero" and "I Dig You".) 4/5 rather than 5/5.
Lou Reed
3/5
Still not a fan of Lou Reed's "singing." Good groove on 2 - "Andy's Chest." 5 - "Walk On the Wild Side" still great; makes me want to listen to "Can I Kick It?"
9 - "New York Telephone Conversation." Definite skip.
3/5.
Joy Division
3/5
Not great, not bad. 3/5.
Fatboy Slim
1/5
Nope
The Velvet Underground
4/5
Much better than other VU/Lou Reed albums. 5/5 except for "The Murder Mystery" which was very 60s, very psychedelic, but not for me.
Radiohead
5/5
5 stars, no notes.
Lenny Kravitz
3/5
Meh. Not bad, not great.
The Divine Comedy
2/5
Thoroughly meh. 2/5
2/5
Meh. Trying to sound very much like The Clash but...eh. Miss America is good, due to the Gorillaz vibe. 2/5.
The Kinks
4/5
Very 60s, in a good way. 3.5/5
Queen
4/5
David Gray

Little Richard

Classic.
Iron Butterfly
4/5
Classic 60s.
Screaming Trees
4/5
Elastica
2/5
Eh. Not great not bad.
DJ Shadow
5/5
Reminiscent of lots of 90s electronica/DJs. Might not be for everyone, but it hits my sentimental button even if I never listened to it before.
Taylor Swift
5/5
John Coltrane
3/5
Not bad, just not really my thing. "Just play the notes!"
Pulp
2/5
Eh. Some of it is reminiscent of Velvet Underground. Pretty bland brit-pop all said.
Beach House
3/5
Not bad. Pretty standard millennial pop but some has a bit of a Death Cab and Fleet Foxes vibe.
Buena Vista Social Club
3/5
Good album. Just not necessarily my thing.
Sly & The Family Stone
3/5
Good. Again not necessarily my thing.
The Doors
4/5
4/5
Good one. Different but I like it. Added.

Holger Czukay
1/5
I can see how it's influential, but not a good listen.
Sinead O'Connor
4/5
Really good. Nothing Compares 2 U of course is great, but Black Boys on Mopeds is the standout.
Beastie Boys
4/5
The original. Only 4 stars since because Paul's Boutique is a 5.
Drops off in the second half, but still some good tracks there. And the first half of the album is about as good as can be. Nostalgia bomb.
Dire Straits
5/5
Buck Owens
5/5
Great country record.
Harry Nilsson
3/5
Super Furry Animals
4/5
Interesting. Very odd but surprisingly good. Some of the too-techno-y stuff was a bit overwhelming, but pretty good overall.
Derek & The Dominos
4/5
Good album. Too bad Clapton's such a prick.
The Rolling Stones
3/5
I mean, it's the Stones. Ok album, but Mick.
Also, Trump's usage of You Can't Always Can't What Your Want immediately downgrades the song.
Scott Walker
2/5
Eh. Fine 60s music, but nothing special. Would be interesting to know why it's on the list.
CHIC
3/5
Good, not my style really. Super influential, though, and has been sampled everywhere.
The Beach Boys
3/5
Weird. In a good way, but weird. Not for me necessarily, but maybe on a relisten.
Johnny Cash
5/5
The Black Keys
3/5
Fine, nothing special. If a liquor commercial was an album.

Elvis Presley
4/5
Yeah, that's Elvis alright.
Erykah Badu
3/5
Good one. Too much of the N bomb for me, personally, but great music/vocals.
Ray Charles
5/5
Dolly Parton
4/5
Dolly's the best.
Sheryl Crow
3/5
Fine. Not great.

John Lennon
4/5
Fairport Convention
4/5
Interesting. Some of it sounds very early 60s, others very psychedelic, others contemporary.
Can
4/5
WTF did I just listen to? In a good way, at least for the first half of the album. I can't believe this was made in 1971!
Gets pretty avant garde towards the back half of the album, but the first half is stunning.
The xx
4/5
Surprisingly good.
Afrika Bambaataa
3/5
Groundbreaking and influential, but not my favorite. Who You Funkin' With is probably the best on the album.
Joan Armatrading
3/5
Led Zeppelin
3/5
Manic Street Preachers
4/5
Beatles
5/5
Best Beatles album? Hard to say for sure, with Abbey Road, Rubber Soul and Sgt Peppers, but an amazing album nonetheless.
This album pack a punch, with the amount in just over half an hour, with no track longer than 3 minutes.
Emmylou Harris
4/5
Country Joe & The Fish
2/5
If the aliens land and ask "what did late 60s psychedelic rock sound like?" you can just play this album for them.
Did "Leaving on a Jet Plane" steal from "Sad and Lonely Times" or vice versa? Is "Bass Strings" really not a Jefferson Airplane song?
Blur
3/5
Better than previous ones. Getting away from the britpop sound thankfully. 2.5/5.
Keith Jarrett
2/5
Fine, just not my thing. I can appreciate the technical proficiency of it, but to atonal/improvisational for me.
Marianne Faithfull
4/5
Wow. That was...something. Why d'Ya Do It really surprised me.
Pet Shop Boys
3/5
Middle school in an album
Cream
4/5
Great album. Clapton's an ass.
