Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs
Derek & The Dominos
I have of course heard "Layla" and "Bell Bottom Blues," but I don't think I've heard the rest of the album. Let's see!
Really like the sound of "I Looked Away," just sort of a rocking, rollicking number that showcases some good bluesy Clapton vocals.
"Bell Bottom Blues" is long as fuck--longer than I remembered. Great though.
"Keep on Growing" is a great little 'I wish i was a better man' type of song. Love this one. Rockin'.
"I Am Yours"--kind of a trippy, psychedelic number. Cool, but not my fave.

Born To Run
Bruce Springsteen
This is one of the greatest albums of all time, for sure. Excited for a full listen-through.
1. Thunder Road. One of my favorite songs of all time. What else needs to be said?
2. "Tenth Avenue Freezeout" - an awesome song. I never get sick of hearing it. Jammy, rollicking, fun. Great lyrics.
3. "Night" - not as familiar with this song, but I like it! It's slower, but Bruce has that deep and guttural tone going in his voice, which I really dig.
4. "Backstreets" - this album has...almost every one of his really big hits.
5. "Born to Run" - what a phenomenal title track. Of course this is what he called the album. it's fucking perfect. A+, no notes.
6. "She's the One"
