This shit is weird and I like it.

I don't think we talk about how hard Adam Raised A Cain goes. Goddamn.

When this bands experiments work, then this is truly fantastic. When they don't, it's unlistenable. An interesting listen to say the least. Can't say I'm going to be coming back to this one, but I'd rather hear this than something polished and boring.

Sounds like half the other albums I've heard on this list, but the singer this time sounds like a bad George Harrison impersonation. This list was obviously made by a bunch of middle aged British dudes.

Is that.... Sanford and Son?

What a great way to start off this challenge.

Other than the singles, not much here really stood out.

This was a pleasant surprise. Never heard of this before I started this challenge. Will definitely listen to Mike some more.

Nice background music for driving around on a Monday morning. Can't see myself really going back to it, but it was pleasant enough.

I like it when the Doors go fully blues rock. This album rules.

My second Simon & Garfunkel album. I think I'll stick with the greatest hits

The energy is great and the guys sound like they're having fun. I need to listen to more Cheap Trick.

This reminds me of Natalie Merchant. I hate Natalie Merchant.

Yeah, I just don't get the hype.

I think In My Time Of Dying is slept on. That's all I can really add to the discussion. Zeppelin rules.

A nice slice of 70's hard rock. These guys were pretty great back in the day.

I seem to get these low key chilled out folksy albums on rainy days. I'm not complaining cause this is great.

Some of the guitar riffs are decent, but I'm just not into 90s club music.

These harmonies? *chefs kiss*

Really loved Take Five and Blue Rondo. The rest is good background music.

I wish more bands would follow the Pistols example and just do one banger album and call it quits. Sometimes that's all you need.

Frank is great.

Stuff like this is why I signed up for this site. Never heard of this guy before. Absolutely loving it. It's jazzy, folksy and a little weird.

That perfect mix of heavy and melodic that just speaks to me. Layne and Jerry's harmonies are just insane.

This is decent. Other than the title track and Distant Lover, not much stands out but I don't think this is the kind of record for intense in depth listening if you get my drift. (It's for boning)

Can't go wrong with The Ronettes and Darlene Love.

Chilled out goodness.

Some brutally honest lyrics and excellent songwriting. Hooks for days.

Is that.... Sanford and Son?

If you're making a list of the top 50 rock songs of the 2000s, like 3 of them are on this album.

It's always nice when Emmylou shows up to like the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame or the Grammys to do some tribute cause he voice is great. This album is fine. I dunno, I'm just not really a country guy.

It's giving Talking Heads/Kate Bush vibes. I like this. Nice discovery.

A fun little nugget of 60s nonsense.

The musicianship is very good, but none of these songs really stand out and excite me all that much. I like some of their songs, but none of them are on this album.

Love his voice and the orchestrations.

I don't hate this? I dunno. Some decent grooves here but nothing really great. I'm feeling nice so I guess it gets 3 stars.

Good lord this is funky. The levels of stank are immeasurable.

It's very telling that my anglophile wife who loves all things britpop has never brought these guys up.

Side A might be the greatest album side of all time. Side B ain't too shabby either. If you don't like Rush, you're suspect.

Man, it's a goddamn shame he only ever got to make one record because this is gooooorgeous.

Smoother than peanut butter and almost as good.

This is like I'm hanging out by the campfire with some old cowboys just jamming to some tunes. Legitimately surprised by how much I am enjoying this.

What else can I say that hasn't been said by a million others? This album is a goddamn masterpiece and I'm jealous of anyone who gets to hear it for the first time.

What the fuck is this?

Cheesy 80's hair metal is definitely a guilty pleasure of mine, but I've never been a Bon Jovi guy cause I grew up in the 90's when they were a shitty adult contemporary band for moms. I'll stick with Twisted Sister.

Man, that title track is something else.

I really didn't care for this. All the songs just kind of rambled and went nowhere and I got sick of his vocals.

Auuuuuggghhhh!!!!!

This is slightly less awful than the other Fall album I've gotten on this site. Does anyone actually like this or is it just a hipster irony thing? "You don't get it, maaaaan. It's actually supposed to be unlistenable garbage."

Patti Smith is cooler than you

When this bands experiments work, then this is truly fantastic. When they don't, it's unlistenable. An interesting listen to say the least. Can't say I'm going to be coming back to this one, but I'd rather hear this than something polished and boring.

I keep thinking about what I can say about this that hasn't been said a million times. This is an undisputed classic.

Kinda forgot about these guys since I don't listen to the radio much anymore. Solid rock band right here.

I'm going to give this 2 stars for the sheer audacity of releasing this for public consumption. It normally would be an easy 1 star, but it made me laugh a few times so I got some enjoyment out of it.

It's a shame that Kurt couldn't get the help he needed, but as far as final albums, this one is pretty hard to beat.

Sounds like a jam session. Not exactly something I'm clamoring to listen to on repeat, but it's fine enough.

This is just delightful. Everyone involved in thus sounds like they had a blast and you can hear it in the recording.

Hipster nonsense.

Never been a fan of Clayton's solo work but when he's collaborating with a band such as Cream or the guys on this project, he shines. Also, the lore behind this album is great too with the whole Harrison/Boyd/Clapton love triangle drama. So yeah, this is a good one.

Miss Sullivan is from Philly, so this is automatically good. Dudes who don't like this can't find the clit.

This band was a mainstay during my brief indie rock phase in my mid to late 20s. It's still great.

Novacaine For The Soul was a medium sizes hit in the 90s and after listening to this album I can see why they are a one hit wonder.

The Beatles on crack (I mean that as a compliment)

Average 60's psych/folk album. I prefer his son.

It sounds like royalty free background music on youtube videos. It's fine and I think DJ Shadow is talented, but I don't see what all the fuss is about.

Plot twist... it's turns out I like Ska.

Groove Is In The Heart is an all time banger and makes this a 3 out of 5. Otherwise, it's 90s club music so not really my thing.

I don't know what it means to "choogle" but if Mr. Fogerty insists, I'm gonna keep on doing it. Just the kind of pure, no bullshit blues rock that is timeless.

I think it's funny that the guy who signed them only heard "Trouble Every Day" and thought they were a straight up blues band.

Typical messy mid 60s album (but in a good way). I've been sleeping on these guys apparantly.

I'd imagine Marvin would quite a lot to say about stuff that's going on nowadays. What's going on indeed.

For a classic hip hop album, there isn't as much rapping as I remember. Anyway, I liked this a lot. Timbaland was unstoppable at this point as a producer.

It's Stevie Wonder. Of course it's amazing.

Great 80s pop rock.

This is pretty good if you can tune out Anthony Kiedas. Luckiest son of a bitch in rock and roll history.

One of those "I vaguely remember hearing about these guys back in the 90's" acts that this site seems to have a lot of. Sometimes you get something good, sometimes you get something bad. This is one of the good ones.

Slaaaaaaayyeeeeeeeeer!!!!!!! This album just kicks your ass efficiently for 28 minutes straight. Thrash distilled to its purest essence.

It's so weird that this guy does scores for prestige dra.a films now, but it kind of makes sense when you listen to this. This is basically just a soundtrack to Trent Reznors self destruction. I'm glad Trent was able to get out of it alive unlike a lot of musicians of that era.

Yeah, this definitely sounds like it came out in the year 2000. I'm just not into Electronica.

Mr. Blue Sky is one of my favorite songs. Absolutely always brightens up my day no matter how shitty the world is when I hear it. That being said, this album would be great if it were a single instead of a double.

Eminem really is talented. It's just a shame 90% of his output is corny edge lord shit. I was definitely the target demographic for this when it came out (15/16 year old white boy from the suburbs) but even back then I didn't vibe with it.

I feel like I should be in a shitty dive bar somewhere listening to this, but I'm stuck at work.

This sounds like about 20 other albums I've heard on this list. Nothing really that special.

I never knew quite where this was going from song to song which is the highest compliment I can give an album. I love an album with variety and this certainly delivered. These guys should have been way bigger than they were.

Goddamn I love the blues.

The Band? More like The BLAND.

Perfect tunes for chilling on a Sunday afternoon.

11 minute version of I Heard It Through The Grapevine? Let's fucking gooooooooo!!!!

Solid mid 60s soul record.

I think the marketing and universe created around this is much more interesting than the actual music.

Kind of sounds like if Weird Al made a song making fun of punk music. It's okay, I guess. I've always thought they were a novelty joke band.

Easily in my top 10 and probably top 5 albums. Perfection from front to back.

When he said "snot running down his nose" I really felt that.

Thanks Tony, Ozzy, Geezer and Bill for inventing heavy metal, the greatest music genre known to man.

Cut Your Hair is a decent track. I'm just bored and unimpressed by the rest. They're not doing anything that wasn't done much better by the Pixies or Weezer.

God, these Mike Mills backup vocals are transcendent.

I dunno. I thought given the background behind this album and all the crazy shit this guy did I would either get something really weird like Captain Beefheart or some beautiful lost gem like Nick Drake or something. I get a run of the mill mid 60s folk rock album. Meh.

Adult contemporary bullshit.

This sounds like my ass after I've had too much taco bell. None of these songs are interesting enough to listen to for 45 seconds, let alone for 8 minutes. I feel like this site is punishing me for giving me some actual good music last week. Proof that not everything was good in the 90s.

This was exactly what I needed to hear today. I've been sleeping on these guys.

It's awesome and insane that these same four dudes made St. Peppers like three years later.

Black Hole Sun is easily one of the top 100 songs ever written.

Name another group that can do hip-hop, hardcore punk and 70's funk instrumentals on one album. Beastie Boys will forever be my shit.

I didn't do drugs and go to raves in the 90's, so I hate this crap.

This actually isn't bad. Probably because Ronnie Wood and other members of The Faces were involved pretty heavily. Still, much better than expected.

Blues perfection. They just sounded like they were having a great time recording it.

This sounds like the bonus disc to an albums 30th anniversary deluxe edition. The work in progress songwriting demos.

Typical old school country music. Kinda all sounds the same but is pleasant enough to listen to. I'll take it over Morgan Wallen any day.

The first song is a masterpiece and then the rest of disc one is good. However, this album reaches masterpiece status on the second disc.

Man, Peter Gabriel just makes everything better, doesn't he? Also, Phil Collins is a badass drummer.

Yeah. I admit it. I used to listen to this in high school. I still know a lot of the words, too. Objectively I know it's trash and I'm embarrassed I ever liked it, but the slight nostalgia I feel for it won't let me give it a lower grade than 2 stars. P.S. That n-word on the last track? We shouldn't be surprised that Kid has gone full MAGA.

Just some perfectly produced pop songs and surprisingly proggy in parts? I dig it.

I've always thought of Elton John as a "greatest hits" kind of artist and this album didn't dissuade me from that. It's solid, but I can't see myself coming back to this on a regular basis except to listen to Tiny Dancer and Levon.

You either get it or you don't. This shits weird, but so am I, so it's right in my wheel house.

Surprisingly, given my age and my music taste, this is the first time I've actually listened to this all the way through. It's a decent nu metal record. Way overplayed back in the day which is probably why I never listened to it.

This is good, but it's missing something. (Neil Young)

This is like a less weird version of Zappa. I dig it.

I don't think we talk about how hard Adam Raised A Cain goes. Goddamn.

The wife and I drove around today doing errands today and this was a perfect soundtrack to that. I really dug this quite a bit. It was chill but still kept me interested. A, nice discovery.

Punk rock perfection.

Storytime: I was hanging out with my grandmother at the mall in the 90s and I mentioned to her I wanted to buy this cd. She said "I'm not letting you buy that! It's garbage!" Needless to say, this album was very good. Grammaw got this one wrong. Miss you!

Sam Stone is one of the most devastatingly sad songs of all time.

He made Thriller. THRILLER.

Sounds like half the other albums I've heard on this list, but the singer this time sounds like a bad George Harrison impersonation. This list was obviously made by a bunch of middle aged British dudes.

This shit is weird and I like it.

The Cars Greatest Hits Vol. 1 Literally every song is a banger.

Imagine this existing and choosing to listen to Drake.

Lovefool is one of the best pop songs of the 90s and I enjoyed the cheeky Iron Man cover.

This might make me sound like a boomer, but man 90s hip hop is so much better than most of the crap that passes for hip hop nowadays.

More shitty 90s club music. Yay!

Metallica at their heaviest and most technically proficient. Probably their best album even though the mix is awful. Justice For Jason!

This didn't need to be 71 minutes long.

Even if you take off the Anthrax remix, this is a perfect hip hop album for metal heads. Loud and in your face.

This is easily a top 5 Zappa record and the best of his more jazzy instrumental based work. This and Overnite Sensation are great intros to his stuff.

If you don't like this, you're a cop.

This guy sounds almost as bored as I am.

If you don't like Sledgehammer, get help for your lack of taste

Another decent album that sounds like half of the other ones on this list, but they kept it weird enough to keep me interested the entire running time.

I'm about 200 albums in and at least a quarter of them have been some version of this.

Finally, some fucking metal!

Cut maybe 3 or 4 songs from this and you got a 5 star album.

Just pure noise and fun. If you don't like this then you're a boring person.

Imagine making a song so badass that the army throws your mom out of a window.

The one song that was semi interesting got cut off on the YouTube video of the album. Its not on spotify and frankly, no big loss.

This is for boring people who think mayonnaise is spicy and Phil Collins is a little too hardcore.

I loved how all the tracks flowed together. Totally going to play this around Trump supporters I know to make them angry.

I think it's pretty funny that I'm getting this album today since I'm seeing them in concert tonight. Anyways, lots of "real" metal heads complain about this album but there's a reason why this is one of the best selling albums of all time. It's a fantastic album and probably the perfect introduction to Metallica and therefore the genre of metal as a whole.

God, this guy was just a massive talent. Freedom 90 is forever a bop, but the rest of this record is just gorgeous. When's volume 2 coming out?

It's a damn shame. This album is great and it feels like she was just getting started.

All these classic DLR era Van Halen albums are like 30 minutes long. More 30 minute albums please.

Decent singer songwriter album from the 70s. Harmonies sound beautiful (obviously) and some interesting instrumental arrangements here and there. I don't think this would be as well regarded as it seems if a beach boy wasn't involved but it was a nice rainy day driving around album.

This is Irish as fuck which means it's automatically good.

I like their later stuff better, but Elizabeth Fraser could sing the phone book and make it sound good.

MehGMT

80's white boy funk at its finest.

If I go to a barbecue joint and I hear this on the speakers, I know the food is going to be spectacular.

Everything that sucked about early 2000s music in one album.

Madonna is much more of a singles artist than an album artist and none of the singles from this album were particularly great. Why the fuck is this album on the list? Stick with the compilations.

Man, I'm a sucker for a 10 minute epic.

Really dug the first side but it kind of lost steam after that. One of those stereotypical messy double albums that would have been much better as a single album.

Some really cool arrangements on here. This was a nice chill listen.

R.I.P. Mr. Wilson.

This album rules, obviously, but you gotta try to find DLRs isolated vocals on youtube. Shit's hilarious.

I just couldn't stop smiling and bobbing my head the entire time listening to this.

A prime example of how great 90's hip hop was. Probably don't need 3 remixes of Fu-Gee-La, though.

This came out about 6 months after Are You Experienced. Insane.

Kids, we have Scott Walker at home.

Madonna in her hippie dippie "I'm not religious, just spiritual" era. Probably the best of the 3 albums I've gotten from her doing this challenge.

Goddamn, I love the blues.

What if The Doors played punk rock?

These guys aren't bad when they actually try.

I'm a gigantic slut for weird shit and string sections. This is right up my alley.

It took me a couple of tracks to warm up to this, but by track 3 I was a believer. Her voice is sooooooooo good.

Finally! My first Bowie album of the challenge! Heroes (the song) is my favorite Bowie song and one of my favorite songs of all time. The album itself is very good too, but man that song is something special .

So many other bands of that era were doing much better versions of this, but they were really handsome so....

A fine record, but nothing really here blew my mind like some of his other stuff.

Badass riffs and badass beards. Sometimes you gotta turn your brain off and just enjoy some dumb dad rock.

Not quite the true birth of heavy metal like some have said, but a very important early influence. Just nasty, loud blues rock.

I did my involuntary stank face for a good chunk of this one.

Phenomenal voice and great songs. Sometimes people sell boatloads of albums because of their undeniable talent.

This guy was in Are We There Yet? and that just cracks me up for some reason given the lyrical content on display here.

This is just Bowser Castle music with a German dude talking over it. Also, half the songs are also somehow queen covers? This is garbage and probably racist.

I mean, it's Nevermind. It's an easy 5 stars.

Decent little mid 60's record. The Monkees were actually a decent group. This sounds like Rubber Soul outtakes.

The vocals are really mixed weirdly on this. You can barely even make them out on some of the songs. That being said, A Forest is a top 5 Cure track.

You can't fool me. This is a prog rock album. Indie, my ass. By the way, that's a good review.

Some good songs on here, but a lot of short, half finished ones. Some of the shorter ones could have been developed more. Still a good time, though.

Randomly watching that documentary about these guys one night is one of the best music discovery decisions I have ever made. They have so many great songs and albums over a very long and prolific career and this is probably the best place to start

Joe Walsh=cool Don Henley=lame Therefore the Eagles average out to meh.

This is my first experience with a Nick Cave album. It was fine. Decent background music. I didn't feel it's length.

This is a very good album and a very important influence to a lot of the early thrash and death metal bands. Yes, it's a little silly but so is a lot of the crap on this site that people fawn over. It's an easy 4 star album that I'm giving 5 stars to because of a lot of the anti-metal snobbery on display.

Albums like this are why I do this challenge. This album is beautiful.

Dave Grohl attempts to make his very own Nirvana album and instead makes a middle of the road radio rock album. It's aggressively fine.

RIP Ozzy Osbourne. Personally, I think Master of Reality is a much more essential album than this one, but you can't go wrong with any of the first 6 Sabbath albums. (and the Dio era stuff, too)

I wish this album was as interesting as it's lore. Just a very meandering affair.

Well played blues that's missing the "stank" that you get with the really good shit. Another example of Eric Clapton being great only when he's in a supporting role.

This is very pleasant background music. Put this on at a wine and cheese party and you're good to go.

Much more experimental and Zappa-ish than I was expecting. Definitely will check out some more from this guy.

I was really into this album back in the day when I was dabbling in the indie hipster stuff that was popular at the time. This one still holds up fairly well.

The Who are like the one band of "classic rock" canon that I just never vibed with. I never outright hated them, but I'd rather listen to Zeppelin, The Stones, The Beatles or even Bad Company over this any day. Plus, the James Brown and Bo Diddley covers on this thing are laughably bad.

I would easily swap this out for Songs For The Deaf. That albums the real deal.

Don't You Want Me is such a classic. The restvof the album is fine.

She's got a great voice but like most Electronica stuff, it all sounds the same. 3 tracks in and I know what I'm getting.

I respect this more than I like this if that makes any sense.

I was fully expecting to hate this since I despise this techno stuff, but this is actually pretty decent.

Track one is just awful. His vocals don't work for these slower tracks. The album does get better, but there isn't much here to recommend overall. Just because it's a British punk album from 1978 means it's worthy of inclusion on the list.

Maybe the best rock album of the 21st century if you don't count metal releases

This was a pleasant surprise. Dancy indie rock with a sci-fi edge.

Decent beats, but this is just way too preachy and corny for my taste. It's giving youth pastor vibes. Tennessee however is a banger.

Great musicianship, killer vocals, lots of bangers, amazing album covers and incredible live. Maiden is easily a top 10 band for me.

This music is just gorgeous.

I just can't believe the same dude who made these songs is now a Hitler praising edgelord. God, what a waste. What the hell happened, Kanye?

I really love the title track, but this album is overall way too "adult contemporary" for my taste. Not helping the fact is how damn long it is.

I enjoyed this. Lots of great funky grooves. Like a lot of albums from the CD era it's probably about 15-20 minutes too long, though. Throw this on at your next family function to piss off your MAGA relatives.

WOOOOOOOO!!!! All hail the TRUE king of Rock and Roll.

Serious Beck is not really my thing. I prefer nonsense Beck.

Maturity is realizing that Disco does NOT suck.

This album goes from prog to pop to proto metal to dixieland jazz and everything else in between and they do it all so well. Amazing band and amazing album.

I was lucky enough to see Mr. Gabriel a couple years back on his last tour and he ended the set with Biko. It was amazing.

Possibly the most overrated rock band of the 21st century. Never really got into them and this album didn't convince me.

This is the music they play in late 90s teen comedies when the main character is sad and having problems with his girlfriend.

The Beta BLAND

It's A Sin is an all time banger. Unfortunately the rest of the album pales on comparison.

Just because this has the occasional guitar riff doesn't mean it's not shitty 90s club music. What a waste of an objectively badass band name.

Basically what I would imagine French Industrial music to sound like.

Man, these dudes went hard back in the day.

Standard adult contemporary radio fare. People act like she's the second coming of christ but her lyrics are middle school poetry at best. I just don't get the hype. My niece loves her, though, so I'll give this a 2.

I didn't know that weather song is by them, so I guess they're a two hit wonder. Anyways, this was a decent record.

Genius.

Mine had a random Sara Vaughn song in the middle of the tracklist, which must have been a mistake on spotifys fault. Anyways, not really for me. Sounds like he was just making up songs as he went along.

I Believe In A Thing Called Love was a signature song of mine during my karaoke era. I could sorta hit the notes back then. I sure as hell can't hit them now. Lots of fond memories of this album. This is an easy 5 stars.

One of those rare cases where good songs are ruined by terrible production. Some of these songs would be good if they were more stripped back. Except Jazz Police. Nothing's saving that shit.

John goes to therapy and unpacks a lot of shit. Not always a comfortable listen but that's the point.

90's hip hop perfection. Plus, no dumb ass skits.

I'll never understand why "Hey Hey What Can I Do" was relegated to obscure b-side status but they kept "Hats Off To Roy Harper" on this. That being said, another great Zeppelin album. Lots of great acoustic stuff on side 2. Definitely paved the way for Stairway.

Gets a bit repetitive, but you can't deny how funky it is.

If you want to hear Johnny Rotten caterwaul over the same repetitive beat for 7 minutes, this is the album for you.

Kendrick and Tyler are pretty much the only mainstream rappers making good shit nowadays. Even a Drake feature can't ruin this.

I appreciate the ambition, I just don't think The Who are a versatile enough band to pull off something like this fully. Lots of bloat. Maybe if they stuck to making it a single lp?

Giant Bland.

Bossanova with a modern (in the year 2000 at least) twist. Not bad. That album cover is atrocious, though.

Hearing Frank always puts a smile on my face.

Some of the beats are good, but man this guy has no flow. Sounds like a cheap copy of MF Doom (who, by the way, isn't even on this list)

So many great riffs. Possibly their best album.

More proof that doing drugs doesn't always inspire good music.

Got to see them do this album and Dookie live in its entirely last year. Still a fantastic album and unfortunately the title track is super timely right now.

All these "songs" just repeat the same thing for 3 to 11 (!!!) minutes without leading up to anything interesting. What a waste of my time.

Typical Stones album, which means there are two or three all time great singles and a bunch of loose jams that mostly work. Probably best listened to at dive bars or rowdy barbecues.

First time listening to solo Moz. Not bad but not quite up to the level of The Smiths.

Bobby Womack was a scoundrel and this is some scoundrel ass shit.

I never really understood the hype behind this album. It's not bad by any means, but I think the Stones have a lot better material. Would have been better as a single lp for sure.

I like that Fuckin Up song. It speaks to me lyrically since I'm always fucking up.

Disc 1 (Speakboxxx) is a dirty south hip hop classic. Disc 2 (The Love Below) is Andre 3000 doing whatever the hell he wants. Two really strong albums packaged as one. It's a lot to take in at once but worth it.

This is probably the most early 2000s album I've ever heard, but girl can sang. Plus, Beautiful is a legitimately great song. I enjoyed this more than I thought I would.

I don't know about this one. I like a lot of Neil Youngs shit but this one was kinda meh. It's my 3rd or 4th Neil album so far and he's very hit or miss. I got his greatest hits cd many years back and I'll probably stick with that for the most part.

I bought this cd back in the day. I don't remember any of these songs except Get Free. Not bad but obviously has not stood the test of time.

Jimi not only reinvented the guitar, but he pushed production techniques as far as they could go in 1968. I would have loved to have seen what crazy shit he would have come up with in the 1970's and beyond. A true masterpiece like all of the Experience records.

I'll take this over modern day bro country crap like Morgan Wallan, but with some notable exceptions, country is just not my thing.

I'm going to rate this a 2 because of that Pink Floyd cover. A light 3 otherwise.

Needs more Grace Slick.

This sounds like the 50th anniversary bonus deluxe box set version of an actual album. Maybe I'm Amazed is great though.

Another "stick to the greatest hits" artist.

It's somewhat generic and that Steppenwolf cover is really bad, but this is the kind of no bullshit hard rock that scratches the dumb caveman part of my brain. I'll take this over techno any day.

This album is the reason why 95% of the shit I listen to exists. God bless Ozzy Osbourne and God Bless Black Sabbath.

Like, it's Dark Side Of The Fucking Moon. What else can I say?

These 3 ladies were just made to sing together. A nice pleasant album to listen while doing Sunday errands with the Mrs.

Fairytale of New York is one of the only Holiday songs that you can listen to all year round. Great song. The rest of this album was very good, too.

I think doing this challenge has made me discover that I just loved this chilled out jazz shit.

I'm still discovering old songs that are sampled on this album many years after the fact. Absolutely dense and brilliant production on this one. Lyrics are silly and dumb but also clever at the same time. A masterpiece.

Great production and musicianship. I just wish it had more soul. Peg is a bop, though.

This was a nice surprise when it was released because we all thought he was retired. I remember even talking to my wife about a possible tour. Sadly, that's not how things played out, but I'm glad he was a creative force up until the end.

90's grocery store ass album.

This one is really hard to rate. It's honestly not very good. It's very ramshackle and mostly sounds like he's making it up as he goes along. His history of mental illness obviously comes into play here and there are some good moments where his talent is able to shine through.

I have a feeling that the Velvets will join Bruce Springsteen and Fleetwood Mac under my "controversial artists" because this album is a 5 star classic and I've never really ever connected with the rest of their stuff. We'll see.

Where Did You Sleep Last Night still gives me chills.

Creamy goodness.

Jaco!!
