I've heard that it takes some time to "get" Elvis Costello's music. I'm not there yet.

Paris 1919

4/5

A couple of songs on here I really dig - Half Past France and Paris 1919. Kind of a strange vibe to the whole album, but that intrigues me.

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

2/5

Lots of classics, I just don't really like Bruce's classics.

Juju

Siouxsie And The Banshees

3/5

Into the Light - funky riff throughout. Seems like a good album to listen to while driving around delivering packages.

Stand!

Sly & The Family Stone

Stand - dancing at my desk. Funky outro. Sex Machine - sweet jam.

4/5

Classic. Great background tunage.

4/5

First ever Black Sabbath album listen. I liked.

Talking Timbuktu

Ali Farka Touré

Three songs in. Definitely a fave. Amandrai a nice deep blues groove. Would be fun to improv to. 5 stars since if the mood is right for this, it's perfect.

Larks' Tongues In Aspic

King Crimson

3/5

Interesting. Maybe a relisten at some point, but a bit out there.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers!

Frank Sinatra

3/5

Classic. Maybe nice for a slow dance here and there.

Paranoid

Black Sabbath

4/5

First ever listen front to back of this. Excellent top to bottom. Didn't realize it was from back in 1970. Wild.
