Popular Reviews

The Gershwin Songbook by Ella Fitzgerald

Amazing. Top tier singer performing songs from some of the best songwriters ever.

Porcupine by Echo And The Bunnymen

Not great. Not horrible. A little below average. Would not choose to listen to again.

At Budokan by Cheap Trick

This s one of the iconic albums of the 70s adn 89s. Great songs, great perfromances.

Vanishing Point by Primal Scream

Very generic new wave synth. Barely strong enough for even background music. Not worth a listen.

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith

Mellow average music. Nothing amaozing, but not horrible

21 by Adele
Sep 30 2024

Decent album. Good voice and mostly mellow melodies. I'm not much of a mellow music person, so while I appreciated the music, an entire album got a bit boring after a while. But still decent music.

Oct 01 2024

I mean, it starts with U2's best song ever (where the strees hafve no name) and follows it up with several other hits. My only complaint is that after WtSHNN, nothign else on the album cmes close to being as good, so it does feel like a big bang and a slow dizzle. but still worth listening, to.

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Oct 02 2024

Good music. IT gets a little repetitive after a while, but its also fun to hear all tehse classics together.

War by U2
Oct 04 2024

Good fun. classic U2. A few iconic songs

Electric Ladyland by Jimi Hendrix
Oct 08 2024

Good and iconic. Not something i'd listen to a lot, but fun.

Oct 11 2024

John Lennon was a pretty horrible human being and his music post Beatles wasn't as good either. HE really needed George, Ringo, and especially Paul. Not the worst music, but not great.

...Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
Oct 16 2024

Some catchy tunes. Including some you might recognise. Nothing spectacular, but still a fun album.

Punishing Kiss by Ute Lemper
Oct 24 2024

Great voice But it often sounds like she is singing to a different tune than the actual instrumentals

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Oct 28 2024

AMazing and Classic Album. This one would get 5 stars for Immigrant Song alone.

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
Oct 29 2024

Good album. I only knew a few songs from it, but the rest that were new to me were great to listen to!

Cafe Bleu by The Style Council
Oct 31 2024

Fun album. Hard to categorize the musical style, because they changed genres several times. Little bluesy jazz, some rap, some other pop styles. A good, eclectic listen.

Olympia 64 by Jacques Brel
Nov 01 2024

Mediocre at best. The voice is OK, I guess, but the songs are bland and uninspired. The music is uncreative and overall it sounds like an amateur lounge singer at kareoke night.

Nov 05 2024

IT was OK. The Smiths are a decent band, even if Morrisseyis a complete AH. Songs were good. Worth a listen

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Nov 06 2024

This was an interesting album. fun mix of blues, funk, and desert guitar sounds. I'd never heard of this band or album, but it was a fun listen.

BEYONCÉ by Beyoncé
Nov 08 2024

meh. Not a great album. Some of the duets were good, but this is not Beyonce's best work. Disappointing.

My Generation by The Who
Nov 12 2024

Good early Who. Not their best, but its still good to listen to.

Moby Grape by Moby Grape
Nov 15 2024

Very generic 60s music. Not bad, not great. IF you like the sounds f the 60s, especially the biritsh invasion, this might appeal to you

The Atomic Mr Basie by Count Basie & His Orchestra
Nov 18 2024

It's amazing music. Every song is a banger.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Nov 20 2024

Great Blues music. Classic, fun, and still great today. Sit back and enjoy.

The Specials by The Specials
Nov 26 2024

Fun album like early ska meets early punk.

Vanishing Point by Primal Scream
Nov 27 2024

Very generic new wave synth. Barely strong enough for even background music. Not worth a listen.

Nov 28 2024

Industrial noise music. It was an interesting distraction, but after a song or two, there was nothing grabbing or exciting about teh music and it is really more noise than actual songs. I'd skip this one.

Lady In Satin by Billie Holiday
Nov 29 2024

Classic . Great background music for work.

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel
Dec 03 2024

Decent album. Many popular songs that have gotten airplay over the years.

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Dec 04 2024

Very mediocre Hip Hop. Not bad, but nothing spectacular here. I've heard of them, and I assume that they were instrumental in the early days of hip hop, but this one bored me after the third nearly identical song. People make fun of all hair bands sounding the same, but the songs on this album had nearly the same music and lyric sytle on every song.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Dec 05 2024

Fun classic. Buddy will be missed.

Among The Living by Anthrax
Dec 06 2024

Thrash metal. A good representation. Though I still think "I'm the Man" is their best song.

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground
Dec 09 2024

It was experimental, but not fun to listen to. IT sounded exactly like what it was - someone trying to be as weird with music as possible. It just wasn;t good.

The College Dropout by Kanye West
Dec 10 2024

Fuck Kanye. His music is mediocre at best. And as a human being he is completely atrocious.

Ys by Joanna Newsom
Dec 12 2024

A different sound. Kind of a mix of broadway ballads and Etta James tunes.

Shadowland by k.d. lang
Dec 13 2024

Fun album. Nice folk/country sound

Either Or by Elliott Smith
Dec 16 2024

Mind-numbingly mellow. Feels like each song is just the same as the one before with slightly different lyrics. This is the kind of music that you ignore when it comes into rotation. Or skip if you can. As BEavis and Butthead would say "This sucks, change it."

Movies by Holger Czukay
Dec 19 2024

Not great.

Toys In The Attic by Aerosmith
Dec 20 2024

I mean, Toys in the Attic is classic Aerosmith. Some iconic songs. great listen

Transformer by Lou Reed
Dec 23 2024

Middle of the road album with a few iconic hits. Take a walk on the wildside is still groundbreaking and important though.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
Dec 24 2024

It's Iron Maiden. One of the Mount Rushmore of early HEavy Metal,. Some great songs. Definitely worth listening to again.

The Bends by Radiohead
Dec 27 2024

Meh. Noise and whining. Might have been OK for one song, but I was trying hard to keep listening to the drivel by the fourth song. To quote Beavis and Butthead" This sucks! Change it!"

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Dec 31 2024

Decent album. Not as great as some of his others, but two solids hits. Worth a listen.

A Seat at the Table by Solange
Jan 01 2025

Mediocre at best. Uninspired beats. Bland lyrics. Mind-numbingly banal melodies. This sounds like someone's middle school amateur attempt at music. Don't bother.

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Jan 02 2025

I'm not super familiar with African Sounds, but this reminds me of Paul Simon's Graceland (also, obviously influenced by African musicians) and that makes me happy. Fun album, even if I have NO idea what they are singing about. Still worth a listen.

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Jan 07 2025

Amazing Album. Great songs. Some classics. Lots of catchy tunes.

Phrenology by The Roots
Jan 08 2025

It's OK. Nothing amazing, but not bad.

Scum by Napalm Death
Jan 09 2025

Gravelly Death Metal. OK, but after a few songs I was hoping for more harmony.

Southern Rock Opera by Drive-By Truckers
Jan 10 2025

This was not a good album. Each song was barely distinguisable from the previous or following. Vocals were both monotonous and uninspired. Melodies got lost by annoying performances. Don't bother with this one.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Jan 13 2025

Not a great album. You either love Dylan or you find him grating and annoying. I fall into the second camp. Some familiar songs on here, but they are the ones that you quickly change the channel on when they show up on streaming radio or youtube. Not a fan/.

1989 by Taylor Swift
Jan 14 2025

Great song writing. Great Melodies. Great voice. Lots of musical styles. There is a reason she has lots of followers. Great album.

G. Love And Special Sauce by G. Love & Special Sauce
Jan 15 2025

Interesting music. Gets a little repetitve, I wish they'd have tried different meloidies and styles, but still fun to listen to.

You're Living All Over Me by Dinosaur Jr.
Jan 16 2025

IT's OK. Basically a bunch of songs with spoken word over feedback, but there were some harmoinies.

Actually by Pet Shop Boys
Jan 17 2025

Excellent Album. Pet Shop Boys always had a great sound.

Jan 20 2025

Still an amazing album after all these years. Great songs, great melodies, great lyrics, great vocals and a variety of musical styles.

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple
Jan 21 2025

It's OK. Early hair metal. Not my favorite Deep Purple, but not bad/

Elastica by Elastica
Jan 22 2025

Some great mid 90s sound. Distortion rock done right!

Isn't Anything by My Bloody Valentine
Jan 23 2025

Not great. Not horrible, but there are better shoegazing groups.

1984 by Van Halen
Jan 28 2025

Great Music! Great performances. Some timeless classics. One of Van Halens best albums

Crocodiles by Echo And The Bunnymen
Jan 29 2025

Early Echo. Very standard music. It was OK.

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Jan 30 2025

His crimes have forever tainted how I hear his music.

...And Justice For All by Metallica
Jan 31 2025

Great Album. Classic MEtallica. It starts hard and stays through the entire setlist.

The Fat Of The Land by The Prodigy
Feb 03 2025

This was a fun album with some songs I haven;t heard from a while. Well worth a listen.

Henry's Dream by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Feb 07 2025

Diappsointing. Not as melodic and musical.

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Feb 10 2025

It was OK. Lots of different sounds. Decent music but not amazing.

Out Of The Blue by Electric Light Orchestra
Feb 11 2025

Amazing album with some catchy, popular, famous songs that will remain awesome forever.

Phaedra by Tangerine Dream
Feb 12 2025

Psychedelic prog rock instrumental. Its OK as background music.

Dare! by The Human League
Feb 13 2025

It was OK. One good hit. The rest of the music is OK, but forgettable.

Bad by Michael Jackson
Feb 14 2025

While MJ was a good musician, the scandals around him and the people he hurt forever damage his musical legacy, making it hard to enjoy his album.

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Feb 18 2025

Amazing music. Classic, catchy, and fun.

Feb 19 2025

Hey Ya! ITs a fun album. Lots of songs. Vots of assorted hip hop styles. Great album

The Stooges by The Stooges
Feb 20 2025

Early Iggy Pop. Some classic punk.

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Feb 21 2025

Awesome album. Great jazz. Perfect for background music while working, or as the soundtrack for a romantic evening.

Hard Again by Muddy Waters
Feb 24 2025

Classic Blues. Amazing Album.

Metallica by Metallica
Feb 25 2025

My favorite Metallica Album. Enter Sandman is still a classic.

Yank Crime by Drive Like Jehu
Feb 28 2025

Not my cup of tea. Mostly screaming over semi-melodic noise and feedback. There is some talent here, but it's not my cup of tea,

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Mar 04 2025

A classic. Great storytelling, amazing music.

Machine Head by Deep Purple
Mar 05 2025

AMazing Album. Highway Star and Smoke on the Water are two of the greatest rock songs of all time.

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Mar 06 2025

Not great. Lots of noise and words, but almost no melody or musical lyrics.

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Mar 11 2025

Amazing. Willie is always ana amzing songster, but I never knew about this cover album of classics done with a Willie twist. Some of the best of country.

Mar 12 2025

Ugh. Like nails on a chalkboard. Whiney, grating nasal lyrics paired with uninspired, cacophany sounds. I suffered through it. You shouldn't have to.

Bad Company by Bad Company
Mar 13 2025

Classic Album. Brings me back to my college days in the 90s. Some staples of rock on this album.

Raising Hell by Run-D.M.C.
Mar 17 2025

Classic Rap Album. It's Tricky and Walk this Way are staples of the genre,

Low by David Bowie
Mar 18 2025

It's Bowie, so its gonna be good. Not his best, and a lot of pyschodelic instrumentals, but good background music.

Tonight's The Night by Neil Young
Mar 20 2025

Meh. Bluesy, but nothing spectacular. His whiney voice can get a bit annoying and preachy, but some of the melodies were OK

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
Mar 24 2025

Good album. Great songs. Amazing melodies.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Mar 25 2025

Not good. I don;t understand the hype. There are MUCH better jazz/soul albums out there. This wasn't even entertaining as background music. While I don;t wish that she had died, it was probably the most entertaining thing about her.

Savane by Ali Farka Touré
Mar 26 2025

Fun Blues Music. Great for background while at work

Dance Mania by Tito Puente
Mar 27 2025

Amazing Mambo and Latin Jazz Top notch and epic music.

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
Mar 28 2025

Meh. Very basic reggae. Nothing horrible, but nothing noteworthy. It would be fine in the background on vacation in the carribean. Otherwise, skip this one.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Mar 31 2025

Fun album. some classic tunes.

Future Days by Can
Apr 03 2025

Different. Interesting.

Treasure by Cocteau Twins
Apr 04 2025

Interesting music., Ethereal and melodic.

Channel Orange by Frank Ocean
Apr 08 2025

Very mediocre R&B. Not bad, but not worth listening to.

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
Apr 09 2025

Great album. Some classic songs. Great music for snuggling.

A Wizard, A True Star by Todd Rundgren
Apr 11 2025

Not as good as his other work. A lot more noise and less music.

At Budokan by Cheap Trick
Apr 17 2025

This s one of the iconic albums of the 70s adn 89s. Great songs, great perfromances.

Blood And Chocolate by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Apr 18 2025

IT was OK. Typical Elvis Costello. But not his best.

Play by Moby
Apr 21 2025

This was pretty horrible. Just a drum and piano on repeat while nonsense is mumbled in the background. One of the worst albums on the list.

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
Apr 22 2025

IT was OK. You have to REALLY like Neil Young to sit through an entire album of his stuff.

Tical by Method Man
Apr 23 2025

Much better than expected. Great hip hop.

E.V.O.L. by Sonic Youth
Apr 25 2025

It was onlky OK. Not one I'd deliberately pick again.

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Apr 28 2025

Good album

Parallel Lines by Blondie
Apr 29 2025

Amazing ALbum. Some classic hits and fun rock music!

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
May 05 2025

Overrated

Gris Gris by Dr. John
May 07 2025

It was different. Not my particular style but worth hearing once. Probably wont listen to again

May 09 2025

Slow and boring to listen to. Not even great as backgound music. Will not listen to again.

Birth Of The Cool by Miles Davis
May 12 2025

Classic Jazz. Great for a Friday afternoon at work.

Funeral by Arcade Fire
May 13 2025

Mostly noise and a very, VERY whiney "singer" caterwauling over non-,elodic beats. Not the worst thing I've heard, but I would not recommend it to anyone.

Copper Blue by Sugar
May 14 2025

It was ok alternative rock

I Am a Bird Now by Antony and the Johnsons
May 15 2025

It''s music, at least. It's just not good. Vocals on a different melody than the instruments makes it uneven and difficult to listen to. Singer's voice is uncomfortable to listen to. Not horrible, just not good.

May 16 2025

Surprisingly disappointing. Not the Byrds best stuff. None of their popular songs and it seemed very experimental in a way that was more failure than success.

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
May 20 2025

This one was a great instrumental. Fun, peppy, and upbeat. PErfect for a Monday morning.

Night Life by Ray Price
May 21 2025

It was OK. Not my cup of tea, but pleasant enough for background music.

Butterfly by Mariah Carey
May 22 2025

Famous album. Some good songs.

Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds
May 23 2025

Fun album! Some classic songs here, including a few that have been covered by others. Much better than Bob Dylan's Mr Tambourine Man,

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
May 27 2025

It's Talking Heads. Great album. Great songs!

Teen Dream by Beach House
May 28 2025

Very dreamy and slow. Nice melodies

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Jun 02 2025

Mellow average music. Nothing amaozing, but not horrible

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Jun 03 2025

It was OK. Probably groundbreaking at the time. Lots of different sounds.

Ingenue by k.d. lang
Jun 05 2025

Fun pseudo folk country. With some familiar songs.

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Jun 06 2025

Amazing album. Ballads, smooth music, hard rock, and jumpy tunes all in one.

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Jun 09 2025

IT's Radiohead, so it;s mellow, boring, and each song is nearly indistiguishable from the others. Not a fan.

So Much For The City by The Thrills
Jun 11 2025

Very bland, meh music. I'm sure they have talent, but it falls short.

Brothers by The Black Keys
Jun 12 2025

Decent album

Smile by Brian Wilson
Jun 13 2025

Not great. An obvious attempt to capture the feel of the Beach Boys without the same energy or talent.

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Jun 16 2025

Decent music. Pump It Up is always a classic.

Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park
Jun 17 2025

Linkin Park in its heyday.

Lost Souls by Doves
Jun 19 2025

Meh. Nothing bad. Nothing good. Just Meh. Overly mellow and completely uninspiring.

Who's Next by The Who
Jun 23 2025

It's the Who. Some great music. Amazing lyrics. Powerful vocals. Classic songs.

Lady Soul by Aretha Franklin
Jun 24 2025

Absolutely amazing. Sort of a greatest hits.

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Jun 25 2025

Not great. Not even good

The Rolling Stones by The Rolling Stones
Jun 27 2025

Fun music. A side of the Stones I hadn't heard before. Lots of "Rolling Stones covering standards" music, but well owrht listening to.

2112 by Rush
Jul 01 2025

Not the best RUSH bust still amusing.

Armed Forces by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Jul 02 2025

Meh. I'm starting to see that Elvis Costello is overrated.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
Jul 03 2025

This was an interesting and eclectic mix of music.

Ten by Pearl Jam
Jul 04 2025

ITs Pearl Jam, so if you've heard one song, you've heard almost all of them Eddie Vetter is a great guy, but his music sucks.

Lost In The Dream by The War On Drugs
Jul 05 2025

A little too mellow. Nothing to really grab you. Very repetitive.

London Calling by The Clash
Jul 08 2025

Classic Clash with some amazing radio songs.

Seventh Tree by Goldfrapp
Jul 09 2025

Nice mellow music. Good for background while you are doing something else.

Melodrama by Lorde
Jul 10 2025

It was OK. Not her best, but OK.

Solid Air by John Martyn
Jul 11 2025

It was OK. Experimental, but average music.

Amazing. Top tier singer performing songs from some of the best songwriters ever.

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Jul 14 2025

Good music. Some standards here.

Jagged Little Pill by Alanis Morissette
Jul 15 2025

It is one of the classics of alt rock.

Jul 16 2025

It's the Grateful Dead. It's rarely gonna be better than Meh.

Van Halen by Van Halen
Jul 17 2025

It's Van Halen!

Jul 19 2025

Some really great songs.

Porcupine by Echo And The Bunnymen
Jul 21 2025

Not great. Not horrible. A little below average. Would not choose to listen to again.

Debut by Björk
Jul 23 2025

Its Bjork, so its ethereal and weird and eclectic and pretty good.

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
Jul 24 2025

One of the seminal albums of hard rock and heavy metal.

Nowhere by Ride
Jul 25 2025

Wow. That was horrible. One of the least enjoyable albums on the list.

Kenya by Machito
Jul 27 2025

very catchy afro cuban jazz. Well worth listening to.

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
Jul 29 2025

Fun album Come classics.

The Only Ones by The Only Ones
Jul 30 2025

Very typical of the time. An OK listen

Devil Without A Cause by Kid Rock
Jul 31 2025

Fuck Kid Rock. He's a conservative asshole who promotes ignorance and bigotry.

Ágætis Byrjun by Sigur Rós
Aug 01 2025

Weird. Fun. Relaxing. Ethereal. Scandanavian.

Siamese Dream by The Smashing Pumpkins
Aug 02 2025

Good album. Cherub Rock is still their best song and they come out of hte gate strong with it.

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Aug 04 2025

Fun instrumentsals. Lots of variety and some experimental stuff. Good for background music.

British Steel by Judas Priest
Aug 06 2025

Amazing Judas Priest . A great collection of classic, iconic metal songs. Nothing bad to say about any of it.

New Boots And Panties by Ian Dury
Aug 07 2025

Defititely British. It was OK, but not a standout record.

Aug 08 2025

Loud and in your face. Not as good as other Hole albums, but OK.

Ellington at Newport by Duke Ellington
Aug 09 2025

Amazing. Just Amazing. Great music. Great Melodies. Great performance. Six out of 5 stars.

Tres Hombres by ZZ Top
Aug 12 2025

ZZ Top. Blues Rock. Some classics on here.

The Coral by The Coral
Aug 13 2025

It wasn't horrible. It wasn't good. It wasn;t unique. It wasn't groudbreaking. And it wasn't something I want to hear again.

The Contino Sessions by Death In Vegas
Aug 15 2025

IT was OK. Just Ok. Solid 3. Techno instrumentals.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Aug 16 2025

It's Zappa. Not his best, but still really good.

La Revancha Del Tango by Gotan Project
Aug 18 2025

This was really good music. Instrumental with a nice beat, excellent melodies, and lots of variety.

Aug 19 2025

Probably his best album. Every song is great.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Aug 23 2025

Some great songs, including their best.

Odelay by Beck
Aug 26 2025

Meh. I don't see why everyone thinks this is so great. Wow! You can talk unmelodiously and make discordant noise at the same time. So can a five year old. I walways try to listen to each of these albums all the way through, but this time by the third cacophany, I was wishing it was over. There is one listenable song on the entire album.

Sulk by The Associates
Aug 27 2025

It was OK. Very new wave, but not the top of the crop. A lot of it sounded like if somoene got David Bowie or Depeche Mode off of Temu.

This Is Fats Domino by Fats Domino
Aug 28 2025

Great music. Some classic songs that still hit hard after all these decades. There is a reason that people still listen to Fats Domino.

Lam Toro by Baaba Maal
Aug 29 2025

IT was OK. Fun music. World cuture style.

The White Album by Beatles
Aug 30 2025

It's the Beatles. A great albim with songs that have influenced generations.

Trio by Dolly Parton
Aug 31 2025

Dolly Parton and Linda Rondstadt are always amazing. Together even better.

Sep 03 2025

IT's Bob Dylan. It's like listening to an off key siren whistle with annoying rhythm

Here's Little Richard by Little Richard
Sep 05 2025

Such a fun album. Some standards and lots of jumpy tunes.

The Stranger by Billy Joel
Sep 06 2025

MEh. I never got the Billy Joel hype.

Sep 09 2025

Dirty by Sonic Youth
Sep 10 2025

It was good.

Giant Steps by The Boo Radleys
Sep 11 2025

Noisy, but not necessarily good. Not as bad as Oasis, but close.

Sep 12 2025

Nothing special about this. Not bad, but not something I'd choose to listen to again.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Sep 13 2025

Not the best RHCP. But good.

Infected by The The
Oct 03 2025

Interesting and fun. Lots of variety

C'est Chic by CHIC

Oct 07 2025

Good Pretenders. Brass in Pocket is a classic.

Supa Dupa Fly by Missy Elliott
Oct 08 2025

Oct 10 2025

good kid, m.A.A.d city by Kendrick Lamar
Oct 15 2025

It was OK. Nothing groundbreaking. But nothing bad. Very generic. The constant dialogue inserts did tie it togehter a little, but they detracted heavily from the melodies. I wouldn't recommend it and have no intention of listening to any of this again.

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Oct 16 2025

This was a lot of fun. World Music. I didn;t understand any of the lyrics, but even with that, the melodies and rhythm were great and it was a fun listen.

Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver
Oct 17 2025

IT was mild music. Nothing wrong, but nothing that stands out. PErfectly good for background music while you are doing something else. But nothing inspiring or exciting. Not something I would listen to on purpose, but if it was on at someone's house while we were hanging out in the backyard, I wouldn't mind.

Fun 60s African Music.

Oct 25 2025

IT's Avid Bowie. Of course it is amazing.

Oct 31 2025

Very generic hip hop. Nothing objectionalble, but nothing stands out and a lot of the songs used very similar rhythms so that they blended together too much.

Horses by Patti Smith
Nov 01 2025

It was good. I prefer her more pop and rock songs, but this was a fine morning album.

Rubber Soul by Beatles

Dec 03 2025

Not great. the bands that formes when members moved on (Manowar and Twisted Sister) are much better.

Dec 04 2025

As far as hip hop goes, it was only OK. There are much better artists and much better albums, but this wasn't horrible, just bland.

Not great. Not even good. It's Beck. That should explain it.

Siembra by Willie Colón & Rubén Blades
Jun 12 2026
The Gilded Palace Of Sin by The Flying Burrito Brothers
Jun 16 2026

Very meh, twangy, bland folk country. Nothing bad, just absolutely nothing outstanding or even good. Like an amateur band in a bad bar trying to play music. It's surprising that two members of the EByrds started this band, because it is not great. The music is remieniscent of a bad B movie soundtrack where they didn't have enough money to get anyone decent.

Jun 17 2026

Ladysmith Black Mambazo is always a great listen.

Weird but OK. Not my preference, but nothing that hurts the ears.

Berlin by Lou Reed
Jul 09 2026

Good

Jul 14 2026

Fun!
