Wild Is The Wind
Nina SimoneObjectively good but not my style. She has a strange voice, but is very good on the piano.

Wild. Did not expect to be impressed. I thought it was just another in a long line of punk bands. The themes weren't overwhelming, and I can see why this is a core punk album. The reggae inspired track "Police & Thieves" was unexpectedly decent. "Career Opportunities" and "Garageland" were my favorite tracks.
Not a huge fan. Rococo is when the album got less bad. The whole nostalgic sad-boy themes didn't do it for me. Sprawl II was decent, but that's about it. The best songs featured the female vocals. Not sure what else to say. Not the worst, but not great either. Anyways, that's my review!
It's the Beatles. Obviously they are fantastic. This is in the "later Beatles" side of the Beatles, which I prefer. Someone discovered psychedelics before writing and recording this. Probably Dr. Robert. Not my favorite album, but a good one nonetheless. Yellow Submarine is an absolute classic and is hands down the best song on the album. Eleanor Rigby is good too, but for different reasons. There are some great songs here, but the best stuff is the first half of the album. It sort of falls off on the second half, once Yellow Submarine ends. Definitely worth a listen.
Darn good. I've heard almost all of these songs without ever knowing the band. Easy listening. I was rather impressed, although I didn't bother listening to the multiple versions of the songs.
Wow. Now this is music. She's like the female version of Nat King Cole. Smooth jazz. Cozy 50s vibes. Big mood. I could listen to this all day. Thankfully, it's over 3 hours long, so I can do exactly that.

Not a fan.
Not bad. Still not convinced I like disco.
Fantastic. An absolute classic. I didn't use to love CCR, but I definitely do now.
Not good. Maybe just ok. Too much edgy vocals ruining an otherwise fun vibe. Talking Heads was a clear inspiration here. Post-punk may have some good albums, but this isn't on my list of recommendations.
Not bad. Some good songs, mostly mediocre songs. Not my favorite, not anything I'd seek out, but not anything I'd skip if it was on someone else's radio.
Sounds like a rough Smashing Pumpkins. I like it.
Today I learned I really dislike the Beastie Boys. They've got 3 good songs (none of which are on this album), and the lead singer is incredibly annoying. The lyrics are foul, but if there was a purely-instrumental version of this album, I'd probably like it.
Classic
Not bad, but not really.my jam. I see the appeal, but she doesn't stand out that much, and calling her "the best" seems a bit overblown. Very 90s.
Classic. Minus one star for being a live album.
not bad, feels a bit dated
Duh.
Easy listening. I've heard these songs before, and I've heard of Steely Dan, but I never knew to put the two together.
Not bad. Feels like just another album, and I don't understand why it's so special.
See the album title.
Eh. Not my preferred style.
If it weren't for the lead singer this would just be an ok band. His vocals are what defines the band.
Not bad. Very doo-wop. I've heard a lot of these songs before, and I guess now I know where they all came from.
Eh.
Not terrible.
Obviously.
Pretty good
Eh
Not terrible
Now I know where the meme comes from
She's pretty good
Listened to this every day in college because my sad white girl roommate blasted it through the walls.
Meh
