Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan - Devotional Songs Honestly, Qawwali isn't really my thing, I don't really listen to religious songs, specially to those who are not from my beliefs, but instead of using that as an excuse to not listen to this album, I just went for it and listen it for what it is, and I ended up liking this album WAY more than I initially thought so. 6 songs, but all of them surpass 7 minutes of time length, this album offers the catchiest tunes you could listen to, the instrumentals and the harmonies go hand in hand beautifully and the choruses make you want to dance and groove on the song. In my case, I don't speak arabic, so I don't know the lyrics that he's singing, but I still enjoyed it nonetheless, this is great! 1.- Allah Hoo Allah Hoo = 9/10 2.- Yaad-E-Nabi Gulshan Mehka = 7/10 3.- Haq Ali Ali Haq = 8/10 4.- Ali Maula Ali Maula Ali Dam Dam = 9/10 5.- Mast Nazroon Se Allah Bacchae = 7/10 6.- Ni Main Jogi De Naal = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8/10

Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot Really good album to listen! There's a lot of elements of what makes this album really unique, also the fact that it has a lot of depth into the lyrics and the messages that they try to convey to the audience. This album is so complex that there's rarely one genre to categorize it, it combines so many genres into one and somehow it works. Overall, this is REALLY great! 1.- I Am Trying to Break Your Heart = 10/10 2.- Kamera = 8/10 3.- Radio Cure = 9/10 4.- War on War = 8/10 5.- Jesus, Etc. = 9/10 6.- Ashes of American Flags = 9/10 7.- Heavy Metal Drummer = 7/10 8.- I'm the Man Who Loves You = 9/10 9.- Pot Kettle Black = 7/10 10.- Poor Places = 10/10 11.- Reservations = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.7/10

Bob Marley & The Wailers - Natty Dread Great reggae album coming from Bob Marley which features a lot of political depth into almost every song on here. Short and conscise album, overall this is great! 1.- Lively Up Yourself = 9/10 2.- No Woman No Cry = 9/10 3.- Them Belly Full (But We Hungry) = 8/10 4.- Rebel Music (3 O'Clock Roadblock) = 10/10 5.- So Jah S'eh = 9/10 6.- Natty Dread = 7/10 7.- Bend Down Low = 7/10 8.- Talkin' Blues = 9/10 9.- Revolution = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.7/10

COAT OF MANY COLORS by Dolly Parton First album I listened from this list, and it's the first country album I listened fully! In just 27 minutes with only 10 tracks, honestly it sounds pretty decent. Sure, it sounds like any other typical country album, but it's the way that Dolly does it that I can't even explain, but to say "yo, this shit ain't that bad". The lyrics there do go hard, like the second one had a CRAZY twist, and the sixth one just made me wanna cry (canon event). Will I revisit this album again? I don't know, but for this to be the first album, I'm off to a decent start, time to listen to another 999 albums left to hear!!! ._. 1.- Coat Of Many Colors = 8/10 2.- Traveling Man = 5/10 3.- My Blue Tears = 6/10 4.- If I Lose My Mind = 7/10 5.- The Mystery Of The Mystery = 5/10 6.- She Never Met A Man (She Didn't Like) = 7/10 7.- Early Morning Breeze = 7/10 8.- The Way I See You = 8/10 9.- Here I Am = 8/10 10.- A Better Place To Live = 8/10 FINAL SCORE = 6.9/10

Metallica - ...And Justice For All Wow! This is my first metal album that I've ever heard, and also my introduction to Metallica, never expected to enjoy it. This album is PACKED with bangers, and that's saying something since "apparently" Metallica has made better albums than even this one, which is already amazing in itself. There are moments on this album where you just listen and feel it in your soul (I almost shed a tear when listening to "To Live is To Die" ;) ) this is great!! 1.- Blackened = 8/10 2.- ...And Justice for All = 9/10 3.- Eye of the Beholder = 9/10 4.- One = 10/10 5.- The Shortest Straw = 8/10 6.- Harvester of Sorrow = 9/10 7.- The Frayed Ends of Sanity = 9/10 8.- To Live is To Die = 10/10 9.- Dyers Eve = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 9

Queen - Queen II WOW! What an album this was! Definitely a BIG improvement from the previous album I heard (Dolly Parton). Never expected this album to go so hard, from the intro going to Father To Son, to the incredible riffs that went on songs like Some Day One Day, Ogre Battle and (the infamous) The March Of The Black Queen. Father To Son instantly became my favorite song on the album alongside The March Of The Black Queen and the last song, Seven Seas Of Rhye. Now THAT'S how you end an album that sounds as ambitious and hungry as this. This is incredible, and apparently it's not even their best album. I wonder what type of stuff they be cooking, but ngl, they DO be cookin fr ong. 1.- Procession = 7/10 2.- Father To Son = 10/10! 3.- White Queen (As It Began) = 9/10 4.- Some Day One Day = 9/10 5.- The Loser In The End = 8/10 6.- Ogre Battle = 9/10 7.- The Fairy Feller's Master-Stroke = 8/10 8.- Nevermore = 7/10 9.- The March Of The Black Queen = 10/10 10.- Funny How Love Is = 8/10 11.- Seven Seas Of Rhye = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.6

Stan Getz & Joao Gilberto - Getz/Gilberto WOW! Somehow, coming from a very chill album, this might be my new favorite type of music, dude bossa nova goes hard af. From the iconic first track, to the other ones that sound like classics, I might actually come back and listen to this album, because it sounds different and I actually enjoyed listening to it. This is some feel good type of music, every time you feel depressed, you listen to one of these, and it instantly restores your faith in life, this is happy music, like the true definition of it. Calm and relaxed, buy joyful, colorful and full of symphonies and beautiful melodies that make my ears go numb, this is amazing. 1.- The Girl From Ipanema = 10/10 2.- Doralice = 8/10 3.- Para Machuchar Meu Coracao = 10/10 4.- Desafinado = 9/10 5.- Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars) = 10/10 6.- Só Danco Samba = 9/10 7.- O Grande Amor = 10/10 8.- Vivo Sonhando = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 9.4

Dusty Springfield - Dusty in Memphis This is a very good album that has it's themes of heartbreak and love-pursuing. Even does there's the popular song "Son of a Preacher Man" on there, there are better songs than even that one itself, specially "The Windmills of Your Mind". Almost every song here has some of the best song-writing to offer in that decade, it sounds orchestral in a way. Very organized, nice and gentle, with a punch of harmonies going on every song. You can tell this album was made with huge respect towards music. 1.- Just A Little Lovin' = 8/10 2.- So Much Love = 8/10 3.- Son of a Preacher Man = 7/10 4.- I Don't Want to Hear It Anymore = 8/10 5.- Don't Forget About Me = 7/10 6.- Breakfast in Bed = 8/10 7.- Just One Smile = 8/10 8.- The Windmills of Your Mind = 9/10 9.- In the Land of Make Believe = 7/10 10.- No Easy Way Down = 8/10 11.- I Can't Make It Alone = 8/10 FINAL SCORE = 7.8/10

Alanis Morissette - Jagged Little Pill This album is the epitome of being heartbroken. I heard about this album before but never really took the chance to listen through it until now, it caught me off guard, because it really has that "don't judge a book by it's cover" vibe. I expected it to sound like an average"pop" album from the 90's, but in the end, I underestimated how catchy and good it sounds, especially with the riffs and melodies that it has to offer. Almost every song here is a highlight, that's how good it is. Words can't even describe how amazing this album is, specially to those who went through what the album is talking about. 1.- All I Really Want = 9/10 2.- You Oughta Know = 10/10 3.- Perfect = 8/10 4.- Hand In My Pocket = 9/10 5.- Right Through You = 10/10 6.- Forgiven = 10/10 7.- You Learn = 9/10 8.- Head Over Feet = 10/10 9.- Mary Jane = 8/10 10.- Ironic = 10/10 11.- Not The Doctor = 8/10 12.- Wake Up = 9/10 FINAL SCORE = 9.1/10

William Orbit - Strange Cargo III This is the first time I hear from this artist and honestly, I expected a lot more from it, specially with the album cover, which looked very promising. However, some of these songs are good and decent at least, the album itself isn't really mediocre, it's just that it's not really my type of music. Listen, I do like ambient music (don't get me wrong), but I have heard better ambient music than this to be honest, but I don't know, that's just me. Give it a listen, but beware, the first listen from this album will be... interesting to say at least. 1.- Water From A Vine Leaf = 7/10 2.- Into The Paradise = 6/10 3.- Time To Get Wize = 5/10 4.- Harry Flowers = 6/10 5.- A Touch Of The Night = 5/10 6.- The Story Of Light = 7/10 7.- Gringatcho Demento = 5/10 8.- A Hazy Shade Of Random = 6/10 9.- Best Friend, Paranoia = 5/10 10.- The Monkey King = 4/10 11.- Deus Ex Machina = 4/10 12.- Water Babies = 6/10 FINAL SCORE = 66/120

Bob Marley & The Wailers - Catch A Fire This album is a banger! So many good songs packed into one cohesive project, no filler, just straight reggae classics. This is the first reggae album I've heard, and honestly this might be my favorite genre. What I like about Bob Marley here is mostly the song-writing that he does, it's really passionate the way he sings and talks about multiple topics all into one. I'll definit revisit this album again some day, it's that good! 1.- Concrete Jungle = 9/10 2.- Slave Driver = 9/10 3.- 400 Years = 9/10 4.- Stop That Train = 9/10 5.- Baby We've Got a Date (Rock It Baby) = 8/10 6.- Stir It Up = 10/10 7.- Kinky Reggae = 8/10 8.- No More Trouble = 8/10 9.- Midnight Ravers = 9/10 FINAL SCORE = 8.8/10

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan - Devotional Songs Honestly, Qawwali isn't really my thing, I don't really listen to religious songs, specially to those who are not from my beliefs, but instead of using that as an excuse to not listen to this album, I just went for it and listen it for what it is, and I ended up liking this album WAY more than I initially thought so. 6 songs, but all of them surpass 7 minutes of time length, this album offers the catchiest tunes you could listen to, the instrumentals and the harmonies go hand in hand beautifully and the choruses make you want to dance and groove on the song. In my case, I don't speak arabic, so I don't know the lyrics that he's singing, but I still enjoyed it nonetheless, this is great! 1.- Allah Hoo Allah Hoo = 9/10 2.- Yaad-E-Nabi Gulshan Mehka = 7/10 3.- Haq Ali Ali Haq = 8/10 4.- Ali Maula Ali Maula Ali Dam Dam = 9/10 5.- Mast Nazroon Se Allah Bacchae = 7/10 6.- Ni Main Jogi De Naal = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8/10

Fairport Convention - Liege And Lief Ok, this is a decent album. Coming from the 60's, Fairport Convention offers a folk-rock type album, where it has it's chill and catchy elements into it. The highs are not noticeable, but fortunately the lows on this album aren't as bad as it is. To be honest, it really does capture that time era, where the world was involved in an upcoming war, while at the same time they were transitioning to peaceful times after WW2, and listening to this feels bittersweet, for me at least. But nevertheless, this is good. 1.- Come All Ye = 7/10 2.- Reynardine = 8/10 3.- Matty Groves = 8/10 4.- Farewell, Farewell = 6/10 5.- The Desert = 7/10 6.- Medley: The Lark in the Morning = 7/10 7.- Tam Lin = 8/10 8.- Crazy Man Michael = 8/10 FINAL SCORE = 7.4/10

Jerry Lee Lewis - Live At The Star Club, Hamburg Classic example of "Separating the music from the artist" but it just feels wrong listening to this after knowing who Jerry Lee Lewis actually was as a person. As a musician however, he really rivaled Elvis Presley down to a peck, and for good reason. This live album feels very alive, full of energy, with the drums going hard while Jerry is singing at the top of his lungs in front of a huge crowd. It feels as if you are there with the crowd, witnessing the atmosphere that Jerry is trying to create, and he succeeded with that. While I don't like him for the stuff that he has done in real life, I can't deny that he has made decent music at most (although half of this album sounds exactly the same, but I digress). Overall, it's a good album as a whole, but because of the things Jerry has done, it just doesn't feel right, specially with some of the lyrics on the album. He married his 13 year old cousin when he was 22 by the way, so keep that in mind... 1.- Mean Woman Blues = 7/10 2.- High School Confidential = 6/10 3.- Money (That's What I Want) = 8/10 4.- Matchbox = 6/10 5.- What'd I Say, Part 1 = 8/10 6.- What'd I Say, Part 2 = 7/10 7.- Great Balls Of Fire = 8/10 8.- Good Golly, Miss Molly = 8/10 9.- Lewis Boogie = 7/10 10.- Your Cheatin' Heart = 7/10 11.- Hound Dog = 8/10 12.- Long Tall Sally = 7/10 13.- Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On = 8/10 FINAL SCORE = 7.3/10

Big Brother & The Holding Company - Cheap Thrills When I first heard the first song on this album, I thought that the person singing was some crazy person who was screaming like that. I would later come to realize that this album would end up being my introduction with Janis Joplin, so I was surprised when I learned who was singing on this album. Nonetheless, it's a pretty good album, with a lot of rock-based bangers, jam-packed drums and a whole lot of energy around it! It's groovy and catchy, and overall, it's just a fun album to listen to. This album cover perfectly depicts to how this album sounds, it's good! 1.- Combination of the Two = 8/10 2.- I Need a Man to Love = 8/10 3.- Summertime = 8/10 4.- Piece of My Heart = 9/10 5.- Turtle Blues = 7/10 6.- Oh, Sweet Mary = 7/10 7.- Ball and Chain = 10/10 FINAL SCORE = 8.1/10

Lucinda Williams - Car Wheels on a Gravel Road Second country album that I had ever listened, and it's decent, it's a very chill-back, relaxed album where it talks mostly about relatable topics from love, and overall it's consistency is what saves it from not being good. I would've liked if the entire album had the same energy as "Drunken Angel", that was sounds really good. 1.- Right in Time = 8/10 2.- Car Wheels on a Gravel Road = 8/10 3.- 2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten = 7/10 4.- Drunken Angel = 8/10 5.- Concrete and Barbed Wire = 7/10 6.- Lake Charles = 7/10 7.- Can't Let Go = 8/10 8.- I Lost It = 8/10 9.- Metal Firecracker =7/10 10.- Greenville = 6/10 11.- Still I Long for Your Kiss = 8/10 12.- Joy = 6/10 13.- Jackson = 7/10 FINAL SCORE = 7.3/10

The Who - My Generation Honestly, when I saw the name of this band, I thought that they were a psychedelic rock-type band, like Pink Floyd for instance. But instead, I basically got greeted with a more energetic and "in your face" type version of Elvis Preslesque songs (not complaining to be honest). I really love the drums and bass that go there, that would be pretty much the main highlights on this album, it's great! 1.- Out In the Street = 9/10 2.- I Don't Mind = 9/10 3.- The Good's Gone = 8/10 4.- La-La-La Lies = 7/10 5.- Much Too Much = 8/10 6.- My Generation = 9/10 7.- The Kids Are Alright = 8/10 8.- Please, Please, Please = 8/10 9.- It's Not True = 7/10 10.- I'm a Man = 6/10 11.- A Legal Matter = 7/10 12.- The Ox = 9/10 FINAL SCORE = 7.9/10

Grizzly Bear - Veckatimest Never thought that I ever expected to be amazed at an album on this list sooner, but here we are. This might genuinely be one of my favorites albums, ever. Almost every song in here is either amazing or perfect, and also "Fine for Now" and "I Live With You" are easy contenders for greatest songs to had ever existed in my point of view. This is everything that I ever wanted for rock and classical. Just like the album cover, this is a piece of art, I really enjoyed my first listen, makes me want to forget that I listened to this album just to listen to it again for the first time, that's how good this is. This is perfect. 1.- Southern Point = 10/10 2.- Two Weeks = 10/10 3.- All We Ask = 9/10 4.- Fine for Now = 10/10 5.- Cheerleader = 9/10 6.- Dory = 8/10 7.- Ready, Able = 9/10 8.- About Face = 9/10 9.- Hold Still = 8/10 10.- While You Wait for the Others = 10/10 11.- I Live With You = 10/10 12.- Foreground = 10/10 FINAL SCORE = 9.3/10

Tricky - Maxinquaye I tried to enjoy listening to this album, but it's just that the sounds around are full of everywhere and there's a lack of direction on it. There are so many genres packed into one album, but it just ends up feeling dull and sometimes boring and repetitive. I get that Tricky tried to do something creative, and while I can't deny that this is good music, at the end it feels empty as most of these songs really don't have that much substance other than the lyrics which (for a lack of a better term) doesn't really go hand in hand with the instrumentals. Honestly, Martina (the female vocalist) kind of saved this album from sounding numb. Like I said before, I get the appeal but this sound isn't for me, this is good though. 1.- Overcome = 8/10 2.- Ponderosa = 8/10 3.- Black Steel = 7/10 4.- Hell Is Around the Corner = 7/10 5.- Pumpkin = 8/10 6.- Aftermath = 8/10 7.- Abbaon Fat Track = 7/10 8.- Brand New You're Retro = 6/10 9.- Suffocated Love = 8/10 10.- You Don't = 8/10 11.- Strugglin' = 6/10 12.- Feed Me = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.3/10

Missy Elliott - Supa Dupa Fly Was surprised to get a rap album from this list, but I'm not complaining, since I'm a huge hip-hop fan. I already heard of Missy Elliott before, but never took the time to listen to her music until now. As expected, this album is very direct, spontaneous and her bars go to great levels at times. From start to end, it does indeed feel like a journey you are taking upon to understand her perspectives and struggles she had to faced to in her past, and it just so happens to have great beats from Timbaland. This is great! 1.- Busta's Intro = 7/10 2.- Hit 'Em wit da Hee = 8/10 3.- Sock It 2 Me = 8/10 4.- The Rain (Supa Dupa Fly) = 9/10 5.- Beep Me 911 = 9/10 6.- They Don't Wanna Fuck wit Me = 8/10 7.- Pass da Blunt = 8/10 8.- Bite Our Style (Interlude) = 6/10 9.- Friendly Skies = 9/10 10.- Best Friends = 9/10 11.- Don't Be Comin' (In My Face) = 7/10 12.- Izzy Izzy Ahh = 9/10 13.- Why You Hurt Me = 8/10 14.- I'm Talkin' = 7/10 15.- Gettaway = 8/10 16.- Busta's Outro = 7/10 17.- Missy's Finale (Spoken Word) = 6/10 FINAL SCORE = 7.8/10

Van Halen - 1984 At first, I wasn't really expecting much from this album, and then I heard "Jump"... From then on, I was hyped to see what this album had to offer, and so far, it did not disappoint. Almost all the songs here are catchy and sound really great, it's a really fun album to listen. From a rock band like this, I'm surprised that I never heard of them before, but now I know, this is great! 1.- 1984 = 6/10 2.- Jump = 10/10 3.- Panama = 9/10 4.- Top Jimmy = 8/10 5.- Drop Dead Legs = 8/10 6.- Hot for Teacher = 8/10 7.- I'll Wait = 9/10 8.- Girl Gone Bad = 9/10 9.- House of Pain = 8/10 FINAL SCORE = 8.3/10

Goldfrapp - Felt Mountain First time in a long time where I listen to a beautiful album, this sounds majestic, every song on here tells it's unique little story using harmonies and melodies to accompany with. The vocalist blends really well in with the instrumentals, and overall, it makes up for what is a short yet cohesive, and well-arranged album, this is great! (also, didn't expect to see kanye sample "human", that took me by surprise lol) 1.- Lovely Head = 9/10 2.- Paper Bag = 10/10 3.- Human = 10/10 4.- Pilots = 10/10 5.- Deer Stop = 9/10 6.- Felt Mountain = 8/10 7.- Oompah Radar = 8/10 8.- Utopia = 9/10 9.- Horse Tears = 9/10 FINAL SCORE = 9.1/10

Steve Earle - Guitar Town Listen, I tried to be as fair as possible with this album, but this isn't for me. And the thing is, this is a decent album, but compared to the other albums that I'd listened in the past (including this list) are miles better than everything this album is, even albums that are chill and relaxed sound better than anything this album stands for. This album really fits into the "country music" stereotype, at least I'm glad that this album is short, longer than that and I would've take time to reflect at how dull and boring this is. Even an album like "Strange Cargo III" (an album from this list which I didn't like) failed to do something experimental, but at least it tried to be innovative. But this album though, this is bad. 1.- Guitar Town = 6/10 2.- Goodbye's All We've Got Left = 7/10 3.- Hillbilly Highway = 5/10 4.- Good Ol' Boy (Gettin' Tough) = 6/10 5.- My Old Friends the Blues = 5/10 6.- Someday = 5/10 7.- Think It Over = 4/10 8.- Fearless Heart = 5/10 9.- Little Rock 'n' Roller = 7/10 10.- Down the Road = 5/10 FINAL SCORE = 5.5/10

Bruce Springsteen - Darkness on the Edge of Town To be honest, only thing I ever heard of him was on the song "Born in the U.S.A.", which I wasn't really a fan of, so when I saw this album at first, I expected that it would sound similar to it, and it kinda did, but in a good way. What I really like about this is how grandious it feels when listening to this album, it makes your spirit and soul go dancing while grooving into this. There are some chill moments sure, but the rock elements are what define this album from any other rock album made in there. No wonder why he's a known artist, he for sure is one, because this album is great! 1.- Badlands = 8/10 2.- Adam Raised a Cain = 9/10 3.- Something in the Night = 9/10 4.- Candy's Room = 8/10 5.- Racing in the Street = 9/10 6.- The Promised Land = 8/10 7.- Factory = 7/10 8.- Streets of Fire = 9/10 9.- Prove It All Night = 10/10 10.- Darkness on the Edge of Town = 9/10 FINAL SCORE = 8.6/10

Deep Purple - Deep Purple in Rock Already heard of Deep Purple before, knew what I was gonna listen to, and it did not disappoint! Every song here is a banger and "Child in Time" is easily better than "Smoke on the Water", such an amazing song, along with all of the other songs in here, this goes as rock as it can get, this is amazing. 1.- Speed King = 9/10 2.- Bloodsucker = 9/10 3.- Child in Time = 10/10 4.- Flight of the Rat = 9/10 5.- Into the Fire = 9/10 6.- Living Wreck = 8/10 7.- Hard Lovin' Man = 9/10 FINAL SCORE = 9/10

Duran Duran - Rio Surprisingly consistent! This really captures that 80's vibe, in a very good and catchy way. Songs like "My Own Way" and "Save a Prayer" have that time capsule feeling, as if you were teleported back into that era, with full-on nostalgia coming in. This album is when you just feel down and want to dance and feel motivated, because this instantly improves your mood the moment you listen to it. This is great! 1.- Rio = 8/10 2.- My Own Way = 9/10 3.- Lonely in Your Nightmare = 7/10 4.- Hungry Like the Wolf = 8/10 5.- Hold Back the Rain = 9/10 6.- New Religion = 7/10 7.- Last Chance on the Stairway = 8/10 8.- Save a Prayer = 9/10 9.- The Chauffeur = 8/10 FINAL SCORE = 8.1/10

The Streets - A Grand Don't Come For Free Apparently this is one of the best rap albums of the year according to critics, even though Madvillainy was also made that same year... As a hiphop fan, that first song really gave a bad impression to what I was about to listen, thankfully though, the second half made the album a little bit more bearable to listen. Lyrically speaking, this album tells an interesting story, and while it sounded good on paper, the execution on it was not very good. His rapping was very monotous and didn't have much substance, considering that at that time even british rappers were able to sound interesting, while telling great stories as well. At least the lyrics save this album from being bad otherwise, because this album is, okay... 1.- It Was Supposed to Be so Easy = 3/10 2.- Could Well Be In = 6/10 3.- Not Addicted = 5/10 4.- Blinded by the Lights = 7/10 5.- Wouldn't Have It Any Other Way = 6/10 6.- Get Out of My House = 4/10 7.- Fit but You Know It = 7/10 8.- Such a Twat = 5/10 9.- What Is He Thinking? = 7/10 10.- Dry Your Eyes = 8/10 11.- Empty Cans = 8/10 FINAL SCORE = 6/10

Talking Heads - Fear Of Music Finally, I got to listen to Talking Heads for the first time, never listened to them before other than "Once in a Lifetime", but always wanted to listen their albums earlier. This album is packed with a lot of bangers, very consistent and cohesive with the sound they were doing at the time. But you might have to deal with Byrne's antics of singing on these songs, since it's either a hit or miss, for me however it doesn't matter, because it actually makes it a little bit better to the song, making it less boring to me. Overall, this is great! 1.- I Zimbra = 8/10 2.- Mind = 10/10 3.- Paper = 9/10 4.- Cities = 9/10 5.- Life During Wartime = 8/10 6.- Memories Can't Wait = 10/10 7.- Air = 9/10 8.- Heaven = 9/10 9.- Animals = 8/10 10.- Electric Guitar = 8/10 11.- Drugs = 8/10 FINAL SCORE = 8.7/10

Buena Vista Social Club - Buena Vista Social Club El álbum es tan bueno, que hasta voy a empezar a escribir en español y no inglés xd. Honestamente, cuando vi que me tocaba escuchar este álbum, no sabes lo emocionado que estaba, ya que era uno que tenía muchas ganas de escuchar. Tenía mis altas expectativas, y cuando lo escucho, no decepciono para nada. Puro temazo sobre temazo sobre temazo. Esto es lo que sucede cuando traes los mejores musicos que latinoamérica ofrece, todos juntos en solo un álbum, obtienes esto como resultado. Hay muy buena música en todos los lados que puedas ir si lo encuentras bien, pero luego existe música como está que es simplemente imposible de replicar, porqué es raro de que puedan hacer un album, así de perfecto. Literalmente, esto es perfecto. 1.- Chan Chan = 10/10 2.- De camino a la vereda = 10/10 3.- El cuarto de Tula = 10/10 4.- Pueblo nuevo = 9/10 5.- Dos gardenias = 10/10 6.- ¿Y tú qué has hecho? = 9/10 7.- Veinte años = 10/10 8.- El carretero = 10/10 9.- Candela = 10/10 10.- Amor de loca juventud = 10/10 11.- Orgullecida = 9/10 12.- Murmullo = 9/10 13.- Buena Vista Social Club = 10/10 14.- La Bayamesa = 9/10 PUNTUACIÓN FINAL = 9.6/10

Garbage - Garbage Actually not garbage. This is quite a neat punk-esque rock album to listen. It gets a little bit inconsistent in the middle of the album, but at the end it goes back on track. The songs on it sound really bloomy and nostalgic, in a good way to be honest. Overall, it's a really fun album to listen and, this is good! 1.- Supervixen = 8/10 2.- Queer = 8/10 3.- Only Happy When It Rains = 8/10 4.- As Heaven Is Wide = 7/10 5.- Not My Idea = 7/10 6.- A Stroke of Luck = 9/10 7.- Vow = 7/10 8.- Stupid Girl = 9/10 9.- Dog New Tricks = 7/10 10.- My Lover's Box = 9/10 11.- Fix Me Now = 8/10 12.- Milk = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.9/10

Carole King - Tapestry Honestly, this is not the type of music I look forward when listening, but I can't deny, that this is still good music nonetheless. I like how chill and melancholic this sounds, from start to finish. I really have nothing much to say other than the fact that, this is good! 1.- I Feel the Earth Move = 7/10 2.- So Far Away = 7/10 3.- It's Too Late = 8/10 4.- Home Again = 7/10 5.- Beautiful = 8/10 6.- Way Over Yonder = 6/10 7.- You've Got a Friend = 8/10 8.- Where You Lead = 6/10 9.- Will You Love Me Tomorrow? = 7/10 10.- Smackwater Jack = 6/10 11.- Tapestry = 7/10 12.- (You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.1/10

Manic Street Preachers - The Holy Bible Not gonna lie, this kinda surprised me to listen, because i thought this was going to sound very technical and robust all throughout the album, but quite the opposite. Some of the songs on this albums sound really good, the rock elements mainly are what makes it great to hear. Overall, this is good! 1.- Yes = 9/10 2.- Ifwhiteamericatoldthetruthforonedayit'sworldwouldfallapart = 7/10 3.- Of Walking Abortion = 8/10 4.- She Is Suffering = 9/10 5.- Archives of Pain = 8/10 6.- Revol = 7/10 7.- 4st 7lb = 8/10 8.- Mausoleum = 6/10 9.- Faster = 8/10 10.- This Is Yesterday = 7/10 11.- Die in the Summertime = 7/10 12.- The Intense Humming of Evil = 7/10 13.- P.C.P. = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.6/10

Led Zeppelin - Physical Graffiti First album that I heard from them and it's ALMOST perfect. Only the first disc would have gotten legendary status, but the rest of the album is pretty great too. Even though the last 3 songs don't really hit as hard, they are still better than any song that was made back then, so the quality really was up there, including the lows. Overall, this is amazing! 1.- Custard Pie = 9/10 2.- The Rover = 10/10 3.- In My Time of Dying = 10/10 4.- Houses of the Holy = 9/10 5.- Trampled Under Foot = 10/10 6.- Kashmir = 10/10 7.- In the Light = 10/10 8.- Bron-Yr-Aur = 8/10 9.- Down By the Seaside = 9/10 10.- Ten Years Gone = 10/10 11.- Night Flight = 8/10 12.- The Wanton Song = 9/10 13.- Boogie With Stu = 7/10 14.- Black Country Woman = 8/10 15.- Sick Again = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 9/10

John Coltrane - A Love Supreme I always wanted to listen to this album in the past, it feels like a dream the fact that I was able to have the ability to listen to this. Makes me glad that i'm not deaf so that I can hear this from time to time. This is considered one of (if not) THE greatest albums ever made by any human for a reason. Not a single second is wasted all throughout. Definitely need a second listen for it though, but first listen it's already almost perfect. This is just perfect. 1.- Part I - Acknowledgement = 10/10 2.- Part II - Resolution = 9/10 3.- Part III - Pursuance / Part IV - Psalm = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 9.7/10

Radiohead - The Bends As expected, this was going to sound great. This album is filled with bangers that'll make you vibe with it, there's also a lot of catchy hooks and great riffs that are shown there. If only the band knew for what they will later on create... Overall, this is great! 1.- Planet Telex = 8/10 2.- The Bends = 9/10 3.- High and Dry = 10/10 4.- Fake Plastic Trees = 10/10 5.- Bones = 8/10 6.- (Nice Dream) = 9/10 7.- Just = 10/10 8.- My Iron Lung = 10/10 9.- Bullet Proof ... I Wish I Was = 7/10 10.- Black Star = 8/10 11.- Sulk = 8/10 12.- Street Spirit (Fade Out) = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.9/10

Little Simz - Grey Area Actually good, considering that nowadays mostly female rappers do everything but to actually rap. Little Simz raps like a storyteller, someone who has experience and wise enough to talk about issues that she had to go through. It's a personal, but sweet album to listen. Some of these songs really do depict that dark but technical sound that the album cover looks. Overall, for a rap album, this is great! 1.- Offence = 10/10 2.- Boss = 7/10 3.- Selfish = 9/10 4.- Wounds = 8/10 5.- Venom = 10/10 6.- 101 FM = 8/10 7.- Pressure = 9/10 8.- Therapy = 10/10 9.- Sherbet Sunset = 10/10 10.- Flowers = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.9/10

Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Ragged Glory It's just an average country album that tried to be different, but failed. And while I do appreciate that they were doing this for fun, this album isn't something I'll really listen too often. The songs are long and boring with repetitive riffs, even though there are some highlights that happen all throughout. At least, because it does have actual rock elements for a country album, this is decent. 1.- Country Home = 6/10 2.- White Line = 5/10 3.- Fuckin' Up = 7/10 4.- Over and Over = 6/10 5.- Love to Burn = 5/10 6.- Farmer John = 4/10 7.- Mansion on the Hill = 8/10 8.- Days That Used to Be = 7/10 9.- Love and Only Love = 5/10 10.- Mother Earth (Natural Anthem) = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.1/10

Janis Joplin - Pearl It's a great album coming from someone who passed away really young. Part of the 27 club, Janis Joplin has some of the most relaxing and yet upbeat moments that the album has. It takes time to be accustomed with her vocals, but once you get used to it, you'll appreciate it for it's highlights that have to offer, this is great! 1.- Move Over = 10 2.- Cry Baby = 9 3.- A Woman Left Lonely = 8 4.- Half Moon = 8 5.- Buried Alive In the Blues = 7 6.- My Baby = 9 7.- Me and Bobby McGee = 8 8.- Mercedez Bens = 6 9.- Trust Me = 9 10.- Get It While You Can = 10 FINAL SCORE: 8.4/10

Gary Numan - The Pleasure Principle For a genre that's called "new wave", it kinda does nail that on the spot, although it sounds very technical a lot of the times. Gary Numan presents this album with a lot of electronics and rarely any instruments that sound human at all. While it was revolutionary back then when it was released (1979) and also appreciate the ideas that Gary Numan was trying to put on the table, it sort of ends up going from one ear to the other, as it stales at times over the course of just 10 songs. I wish I could've enjoyed this because the concept of it sounds cool enough, but the music alone doesn't justify it, mostly songs made with an 80's feel, but overall, this is decent. 1.- Airplane = 5/10 2.- Metal = 7/10 3.- Complex = 6/10 4.- Films = 7/10 5.- M.E. = 8/10 6.- Tracks = 7/10 7.- Observer = 5/10 8.- Conversation = 5/10 9.- Cars = 8/10 10.- Engineers = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.5/10

Various Artists - A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector This album is a joy to listen, specially during a great day to spend with loved ones during one of the most celebrated holidays in the entire world. Most christmas music that were made feel lifeless, as a way to try to profit such a wholesome holiday that has the intent of connecting everybody. Rarely is christmas music ever something to play, specially when it isn't christmas. But there's something that this album has that no other holiday album ever had, it's this type of connection that makes you want to revisit this album over and over again, even after christmas and new years eve had passed. But when the 24th of december comes in, listening to this album feels warm, with it's great catchy tunes coming in, the dreamy drums and bells going in all into the formation of 13 songs, including the likes of the Ronettes, the Crystals, and Bob Soxx and his crew. It's a shame though, that this album has a huge involvement with someone like Phil Spector, who is just despicable as a person in every way. But musically speaking, this album is great! 1.- White Christmas = 10/10 2.- Frosty the Snowman = 10/10 3.- The Bells of St. Mary = 9/10 4.- Santa Claus Is Coming to Town = 8/10 5.- Sleigh Ride = 7/10 6.- Marshmallow World = 8/10 7.- I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus = 10/10 8.- Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer = 10/10 9.- Winter Wonderland = 8/10 10.- Parade of the Wooden Soldiers = 10/10 11.- Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) = 10/10 12.- Here Comes Santa Claus = 9/10 13.- Silent Night = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.9/10

Hanoi Rocks - Back to Mystery City This is stereotypical 80's music at it's finest. While they are some good songs on it here and there, nearly everything sounds exactly identical, so pretty much you are just listening to the same song 9 times (excluding the intro, which was indeed weird). It would've got a better score if the songs didn't sound repetitive and dull with the hooks and riffs they were delivering, so for now, this is fine. 1.- Strange Boys Play Weird Openings = 4/10 2.- Malibu Beach Nightmare = 7/10 3.- Mental Beat = 8/10 4.- Tooting Bec Wreck = 6/10 5.- Until I Get You = 8/10 6.- Sailing Down The Tears = 7/10 7.- Lick Summer Love = 7/10 8.- Beating Gets Faster = 8/10 9.- Ice Cream Summer = 8/10 10.- Back To Mystery City = 6/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.9/10

A Tribe Called Quest - People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm This band is considered to be one of the greatest hip-hop bands of all time, and you can clearly see that even in their debut album. Albeit a long one, all the songs in here are consistent and packed with bars and flows that'll you make think more. ATCQ definitely paved the way for the next generation of rappers that were about to come later on. Overall, this is great! 1.- Push It Along = 10/10 2.- Luck of Lucien = 8/10 3.- After Hours = 10/10 4.- Footprints = 8/10 5.- I Left My Wallet in El Segundo = 9/10 6.- Pubic Enemy = 8/10 7.- Bonita Applebum = 10/10 8.- Can I Kick It? = 10/10 9.- Youthful Expression = 9/10 10.- Rhythm (Devoted to the Art of Moving Butts) = 9/10 11.- Mr. Muhammad = 8/10 12.- Ham 'N' Eggs = 10/10 13.- Go Ahead In the Rain = 8/10 14.- Description of a Fool = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.9/10

Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - Architecture And Morality After listening to the first track, I expected it to sound really great throughout, but in the end, it turned lackluster most of the time. I get that they were trying to do something innovative, but it just didn't hit that well personally. There are still some songs like the first one and Souvenir which are really great, considering that it was made in the 80's, but the rest of the album doesn't really bring any good ideas into fruition. To be honest, this is decent. 1.- The New Stone Age = 9/10 2.- She's Leaving = 7/10 3.- Souvenir = 8/10 4.- Sealand = 5/10 5.- Joan Of Arc = 7/10 6.- Joan Of Arc (Maid Of Orleans) = 6/10 7.- Architecture And Morality = 5/10 8.- Georgia = 7/10 9.- The Beginning And The End = 6/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.7/10

Pulp - Different Class When I heard the first track of the album, I expected it to be just another country album (at this point, I've never heard of this band in my life), but all of a sudden, the song changes into more of a rock ballad, and it took me by surprise, and that pretty much goes for the rest of the album, it starts slow and soft, to then building up for a catchy and yet fulfilling chorus. Something that really didn't get me to like this was that some of the songs sound uncomfortable to hear due to it sounding horny in a way once you see the lyrics to it, thankfully not all of them are like that. In the end, I liked it more than I thought it would be, so this is good! 1.- Mis-Shapes = 8/10 2.- Pencil Skirt = 5/10 3.- Common People = 8/10 4.- I Spy = 9/10 5.- Disco 2000 = 9/10 6.- Live Bed Show = 6/10 7.- Something Changed = 10/10 8.- Sorted for E's & Wizz = 7/10 9.- F.E.E.L.I.N.G.C.A.L.L.E.D.L.O.V.E = 7/10 10.- Underwear = 6/10 11.- Monday Morning = 8/10 12.- Bar Italia = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.6/10

The Allman Brothers Band - At Fillmore East While I didn't enjoyed as much as others, it's still a good live album. There are for sure big highlights throughout the album, but some of them do feel repetitive and quite dull at times. But honestly, this is good! 1.- Statesboro Blues = 7/10 2.- Done Somebody Wrong = 5/10 3.- Stormy Monday = 8/10 4.- You Don't Love Me = 6/10 5.- Hot 'Lanta = 9/10 6.- In Memory of Elizabeth Reed = 7/10 7.- Whipping Post = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.4/10

The Dictators - Go Girl Crazy It's a nice short 30 min album that's consistent all throughout. It's mostly filled with good-sounding rock songs, with a lot of electric guitar and bass riffs a lot of the times. The vocalist really does bring an 80's feel to it, which I appreciate it, because it does sound really iconic and nostalgic. Not incredible, but it is a fun album to listen. Overall, this is good! 1.- The Next Big Thing = 6/10 2.- I Got You Babe = 8/10 3.- Back to Africa = 7/10 4.- Master Race Rock = 7/10 5.- Teengenerate = 7/10 6.- California Sun = 8/10 7.- Two Tub Man = 8/10 8.- Weekend = 6/10 9.- (I Live For) Cars and Girls = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.1/10

Fred Neil - Fred Neil This just sounds like any other country album out there, although to be fair, for the time this was released (1966), it was one that made the genre what's known now. Even though there are sweet moments through this album, it's overshadowed by the dull and often repetitive melodies that are scattered in this record. Not a great start for the year :/ 1.- The Dolphins = 7/10 2.- I've Got a Secret (Didn't We Shake Sugaree) = 6/10 3.- That's the Bag I'm In = 5/10 4.- Badi-Ba = 4/10 5.- Faretheewell (Fred's Tune) = 8/10 6.- Everybody's Talkin = 7/10 7.- Everything Happens = 5/10 8.- Sweet Cocaine = 4/10 9.- Green Rocky Road = 5/10 10.- Cynicrustpetefredjohn Raga = 6/10 FINAL SCORE: 5.7/10

Jane's Addiction - Nothing's Shocking Good album, I expected it to be really weird because of the album cover, but to be honest, there are bangers in this album, i'm not going back to listen to this though for obvious reasons, but i'll listen to that one than that fred neil album again, this sounds way more fun and cool (no wonder why MC Ride sampled this for his songs, this goes hard!!). Overall, this is good! 1.- Up the Beach = 9/10 2.- Ocean Size = 9/10 3.- Had a Dad = 8/10 4.- Ted, Just Admit It... = 8/10 5.- Standing in the Shower... Thinking = 7/10 6.- Summertime Rolls = 9/10 7.- Mountain Song = 7/10 8.- Idiots Rule = 8/10 9.- Jane Says = 9/10 10.- Thank You Boys = 6/10 11.- Pig's In Zen = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.9/10

Nirvana - In Utero Near perfect album that Nirvana has made. What an album to finish a short yet impactful catalogue that this band had in the past. From start to finish, this album goes really hard and it shows the strenghts that the band had, it's a shame that they stopped making music, imagine the great albums we could've gotten later on. This album is great! R.I.P. Kurt Cobain 1.- Serve the Servants = 10/10 2.- Scentless Apprentice = 9/10 3.- Heart-Shaped Box = 10/10 4.- Rape Me = 9/10 5.- Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle = 8/10 6.- Dumb = 9/10 7.- Very Ape = 8/10 8.- Milk It = 8/10 9.- Pennyroyal Tea = 10/10 10.- Radio Friendly Unit Shifter = 8/10 11.- tourette's = 8/10 12.- All Apologies = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.9/10

Boards of Canada - Music Has The Right To Children It's a chill and relaxing ambient album to hear, with it's own interesting moments here and there. This album is perfect background music for studying/working, it really gets you focused on the chores you're doing. But for only listening to this, it doesn't really offer that much other than calming tunes a lot of the times. Overall, this is good! 1.- Wildlife Analysis = 7/10 2.- An Eagle In Your Mind = 8/10 3.- The Color of the Fire = 6/10 4.- Telephasic Workshop = 8/10 5.- Triangles & Rhombuses = 7/10 6.- Sixtyten = 8/10 7.- Turquoise Hexagon Sun = 8/10 8.- Kaini Industries = 6/10 9.- Bocuma = 7/10 10.- Roygbiv = 9/10 11.- Rue the Whirl = 8/10 12.- Aquarius = 7/10 13.- Olson = 6/10 14.- Pete Standing Alone = 7/10 15.- Smokes Quantity = 8/10 16.- Open the Light = 9/10 17.- One Very Important Thought = 6/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.4/10

Rush - 2112 Not gonna lie, I was not expecting this album to go this hard... Not a single miss on the album, the title track may be one of the best things I heard as of now, just everything about is just great. This is perfect... 1.- 2112 = 10/10 2.- A Passage to Bangkok = 10/10 3.- The Twilight Zone = 9/10 4.- Lessons = 8/10 5.- Tears = 9/10 6.- Something for Nothing = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 9.3/10

The Rolling Stones - Let It Bleed I had a lot of expectations from this considering that it's one of their best albums. I was yet disappointed to hear that it had that 60's "country-style" rock. There are some good songs on here though, and it is consistently good most of the time, but I did expect a lot more from this. But even with that being said, this is good! 1.- Gimme Shelter = 9/10 2.- Love in Vain = 6/10 3.- Country Honk = 6/10 4.- Live with Me = 7/10 5.- Let It Bleed = 7/10 6.- Midnight Rambler = 8/10 7.- You Got the Silver = 7/10 8.- Monkey Man = 7/10 9.- You Can't Always Get What You Want = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.3/10

Duke Ellington - Ellington at Newport Nice chill jazz live album coming from one of the greats to do it. Albums like these are the reason why I enjoy listening to music so much. How vibrant and colorful the music sounds, it feels as if you were back in time during that concert. It's great to be honest, this is great! 1.- Festival Junction = 8/10 2.- Blues to Be There = 7/10 3.- Newport Up = 7/10 4.- Jeep's Blues = 9/10 5.- Diminuendo and Crescendo in Blue = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.2/10

Talking Heads - More Songs About Buildings And Food Another album coming from the legendary band Talking Heads, with once again a consistent good album to listen to. It features some country elements and turns it around making it more interesting and appealing to hear. Thankfully, their lows are not as low, while it's highs are it's highest on here. Overall, this is good! 1.- Thank You for Sending Me an Angel = 7/10 2.- With Our Love = 7/10 3.- The Good Thing = 8/10 4.- Warning Sign = 7/10 5.- The Girls Want to Be with the Girls = 8/10 6.- Found a Job = 10/10 7.- Artists Only = 9/10 8.- I'm Not in Love = 7/10 9.- Stay Hungry = 8/10 10.- Take Me to the River = 8/10 11.- The Big Country = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.9/10

The Undertones - Hypnotised Yea... This isn't for me. I get that they were the pioneers of this genre they were doing, but it just sounds the same. Nearly every song here feels the same. I'm not complaining about "some" of the lyrics here, but most of them sound pretty dull by comparison. There are like 3 or even 4 good songs on here, most of them are just the same thing like said, very repetitive with very few ideas to bring on the table. Hell, even The Clash were able to make punk music better than them a year earlier with London Calling... 1.- More Songs About Chocolate and Girls = 5/10 2.- There Goes Norman = 6/10 3.- Hypnotised = 5/10 4.- See That Girl = 6/10 5.- Whizz Kids = 6/10 6.- Under the Boardwalk = 7/10 7.- The Way Girls Talk = 4/10 8.- Hard Luck = 6/10 9.- My Perfect Cousin = 7/10 10.- Boys Will Be Boys = 4/10 11.- Tearproof = 5/10 12.- Wednesday Week = 6/10 13.- Nine Times Out of Ten = 7/10 14.- Girls That Don't Talk = 5/10 15.- What's With Terry? = 6/10 FINAL SCORE: 5.6/10

Lynyrd Skynyrd (Pronounced 'Lĕh-'nérd 'Skin-'nérd) First album that this band has made, and honestly, this is surprisingly good! This is what country music should sound like, as someone who really has tried to give the genre a listen and just couldn't enjoy it. This album offers some of the band's all time classics like "Tuesday's Gone", "Simple Man" and the infamous "Freebird". Although it does have some lows, its highs really compensate this from sounding boring. Overall, this is great! 1.- I Ain't the One = 7/10 2.- Tuesday's Gone = 10/10 3.- Gimme Three Steps = 8/10 4.- Simple Man = 9/10 5.- Things Goin' On = 7/10 6.- Mississippi Kid = 6/10 7.- Poison Whiskey = 7/10 8.- Freebird = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8/10

Thin Lizzy - Live And Dangerous Suprinsingly good live album! I never heard of this artist at all, but seeing the time length, I thought this was going to be boring, but I was completely wrong. Although sure the album is quite long, it compensates for how consistent and great the songs are. This album offers some of the best riffs that rock has to offer, and "Still In Love With You" has got to be one of the best songs ever made in the 70's. Overall, this is great! 1.- Jailbreak = 7/10 2.- Emerald = 10/10 3.- Southbound = 9/10 4.- Rosalie (Cowgirl's Song) = 7/10 5.- Dancing In The Moonlight (It's Caught Me In It's Spotlight) = 8/10 6.- Massacre = 9/10 7.- Still In Love With You = 10/10 8.- Johnny The Fox Meets Jimmy The Weed = 7/10 9.- Cowboy Song = 8/10 10.- The Boys Are Back In Town = 9/10 11.- Don't Believe A Word = 7/10 12.- Warriors = 9/10 13.- Are You Ready? = 7/10 14.- Suicide = 7/10 15.- Sha-La-La = 10/10 16.- Baby Drives Me Crazy = 9/10 17.- The Rocker = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.3/10

The Who - Who's Next It just keeps getting better. Some really iconic moments from pop culture come from this album. The first and last songs on the album are just perfect in any way. It's really consistent with the quality that it offers, although there are some loose ones that just don't hit. With that being said however, overall, this is REALLY great! 1.- Baba O'Riley = 10/10 2.- Bargain = 10/10 3.- Love Ain't For Keeping = 7/10 4.- My Wife = 9/10 5.- The Song Is Over = 10/10 6.- Getting In Tune = 9/10 7.- Going Mobile = 7/10 8.- Behind Blue Eyes = 7/10 9.- Won't Get Fooled Again = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.8/10

Fela Kuti - Fela With Ginger Baker Live! Really fun album to listen! It's groovy, straight to the point music that makes you want to dance all day and night long. While it's not something I would listen to any day, I appreciate that albums like this exist for anybody to check in the future, and just reminisce how life felt different during those times, that being the 70's. Overall, this is REALLY great! 1.- Let's Start = 9/10 2.- Black Man's Cry = 8/10 3.- Ye Ye De Smell = 10/10 4.- Egbe Mi O (Carry Me) = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.7/10

Elvis Presley - From Elvis In Memphis Really consistent live album from start to finish. For an album made in the 60's, this sure sounds like good music to hear. I mean, it is Elvis who made this though, so I wouldn't be surprised the fact that it was going to be good. It mostly has relatable songs on here talking about certain topics (mostly love), but some moments sound really beautiful to hear and those moments are what makes this album stand out, but there aren't really that many highs though. Even with that being said, this is good! 1.- Wearin' That Loved On Look = 7/10 2.- Only the Strong Survive = 8/10 3.- I'll Hold You in My Heart (Till I Can Hold You in My Arms) = 8/10 4.- Long Black Limousine = 8/10 5.- It Keeps Right On A-Hurtin' = 7/10 6.- I'm Moving On = 7/10 7.- Power of My Love = 7/10 8.- Gentle on My Mind = 8/10 9.- After Loving You = 8/10 10.- True Love Travels on a Gravel Road = 7/10 11.- Any Day Now = 8/10 12.- In the Ghetto = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.5/10

Burning Spear - Marcus Garvey Really smooth and groovy reggae music to listen! Most of the songs here are consistent in terms of quality, and considering that it's quite short in terms of time (33 minutes), it's enjoyable all throughout. Overall, this album is good! 1.- Marcus Garvey = 9/10 2.- Slavery Days = 8/10 3.- The Invasion = 7/10 4.- Live Good = 8/10 5.- Give Me = 8/10 6.- Old Marcus Garvey = 7/10 7.- Tradition = 7/10 8.- Jordan River = 8/10 9.- Red, Gold & Green = 9/10 10.- Resting Place = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.9/10

Silver Jews - Bright Flight It's a country album and it sounds mostly alright at least. Personally, i'm not a huge country fan honestly, so some of them were just, a bit odd to listen... However, it does have it's good moments (especially Transylvania Blues, even though it's the only track he doesn't sing on it, it has a lot to offer sonically speaking). Overall however, this is decent. 1.- Slow Education = 8/10 2.- Room Games and Diamond Rain = 7/10 3.- Time Will Break The World = 6/10 4.- I Remember Me = 7/10 5.- Horseleg Swastikas = 7/10 6.- Transylvania Blues = 9/10 7.- Let's Not and Say We Did = 6/10 8.- Tennessee = 5/10 9.- Friday Night Fever = 6/10 10.- Death of an Heir of Sorrows = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.8/10

David Bowie - Station To Station Finally I got the chance to listen to a David Bowie album, and it did NOT disappoint. Only album i've heard from him was Blackstar, which is already a classic of his. And it seems that this is one of his classics too. I had the most fun when listening to this album. Honestly, words can't describe how good this album is, just listen it yourself and you'll get it. Overall, this is perfect. 1.- Station to Station = 10/10 2.- Golden Years = 10/10 3.- Word on a Wing = 9/10 4.- TVC15 = 9/10 5.- Stay = 10/10 6.- Wild Is the Wind = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 9.7/10

Röyksopp - Melody A.M. Really cool album to listen. Has a combination of ambient but up-beat music to it, which makes it sounds really catchy to listen. For a band from Norway that I never heard before, this is great! 1.- So Easy = 8/10 2.- Eple = 8/10 3.- Sparks = 9/10 4.- In Space = 9/10 5.- Poor Leno = 7/10 6.- A Higher Place = 10/10 7.- Royksopp's Night Out = 9/10 8.- Remind Me = 7/10 9.- She's So = 8/10 10.- 40 Years Back / Come = 6/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.1/10

Crosby, Stills & Nash - Self-Titled It's alright. I appreciate that they were trying to experiment with new sounds back then, but some of the songs here sound stale in comparison, so much in fact that they make even the chill songs sound better than them. But with that aside, it does offer quality and consistency, especially in the second half, offering country with mix of blues and a little of rock. Overall, this is decent! 1.- Suite: Judy Blue Eyes = 8/10 2.- Marrakesh Express = 5/10 3.- Guinnevere = 7/10 4.- You Don't Have to Cry = 6/10 5.- Pre-Road Downs = 6/10 6.- Wooden Ships = 8/10 7.- Lady of the Island = 7/10 8.- Helplessly Hoping = 7/10 9.- Long Time Gone = 8/10 10.- 49 Bye-Byes = 6/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.6/10

Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot Really good album to listen! There's a lot of elements of what makes this album really unique, also the fact that it has a lot of depth into the lyrics and the messages that they try to convey to the audience. This album is so complex that there's rarely one genre to categorize it, it combines so many genres into one and somehow it works. Overall, this is REALLY great! 1.- I Am Trying to Break Your Heart = 10/10 2.- Kamera = 8/10 3.- Radio Cure = 9/10 4.- War on War = 8/10 5.- Jesus, Etc. = 9/10 6.- Ashes of American Flags = 9/10 7.- Heavy Metal Drummer = 7/10 8.- I'm the Man Who Loves You = 9/10 9.- Pot Kettle Black = 7/10 10.- Poor Places = 10/10 11.- Reservations = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.7/10

Robert Wyatt = Shleep Suprisingly decent! I was worried when I heard "The Duchess", it was really off to hear about, works well for a horror movie, but it just doesn't have a structure to it, but after hearing "Maryan" and later "Was a Friend", it completely removed all my worries to this album. Despite Robert's voice being tiresome to hear sometimes, he's able to make a compelling and emotional album that experiments the depths that rock hasn't crossed to. It's a way to go all and beyond of what regular rock has to offer and I respect that, with songs like "Was a Friend", "September the Ninth" and "Blues in Bob Minor" paving the way for the music that was about to come out afterwards. Overall, this is good! 1.- Heaps of Sheeps = 8/10 2.- The Duchess = 5/10 3.- Maryan = 8/10 4.- Was a Friend = 9/10 5.- Free Will and Testament = 8/10 6.- September the Ninth = 9/10 7.- Alien = 9/10 8.- Out of Season = 7/10 9.- A Sunday in Madrid = 8/10 10.- Blues in Bob Minor = 9/10 11.- The Whole Point of No Return = 5/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.7/10

ABBA - Arrival Good album! It offers some classics from the 70's to listen to (especially with "Dancing Queen", that one's really iconic). It really has that distinct sound that ABBA offered that makes them unique from others, and while it doesn't really amaze as much, it does stand out at the time for making mainstream music sound enjoyable in the past. Overall, this is good! 1.- When I Kissed the Teacher = 7/10 2.- Dancing Queen = 10/10 3.- My Love, My Life = 8/10 4.- Dum Dum Diddle = 9/10 5.- Knowing Me, Knowing You = 7/10 6.- Money, Money, Money = 8/10 7.- That's Me = 9/10 8.- Why Did It Have to Be Me? = 8/10 9.- Tiger = 7/10 10.- Arrival = 6/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.9/10

The Yardbirds - Roger the Engineer Honestly, this album cover really does depict to how the music sounds, weird and repetitive in a way. This was released in the same year as Revolver by the way, this album is just really dull and offers the same tunes that the 60's offered without giving it their own twist. There's a few good songs here and there, that sound decent and have some catchy hooks and riffs, but overall this is disappointing... 1.- Lost Women = 7/10 2.- Over Under Sideways Down = 5/10 3.- The Nazz Are Blue = 5/10 4.- I Can't Make Your Way = 6/10 5.- Rack My Mind = 5/10 6.- Farewell = 6/10 7.- Hot House of Omagararshid = 7/10 8.- Jeff's Boogie = 5/10 9.- He's Always There = 6/10 10.- Turn into Earth = 7/10 11.- What Do You Want = 7/10 12.- Every Since the World Began = 5/10 FINAL SCORE: 5.9/10

Fleet Foxes - Fleet Foxes Folk type album that actually sounds pretty damn good. It feels very dramatic, but also chill. The album cover really depicts well to how the music here sounds, feels like a roller-coaster of listening to this, including that with the story-telling which itself is already fantastic. Honestly, this is REALLY good! 1.- Sun It Rises = 8/10 2.- White Winter Hymnal = 9/10 3.- Ragged Wood = 10/10 4.- Tiger Mountain Peasant Song = 9/10 5.- Quiet Houses = 10/10 6.- He Doesn't Know Why = 9/10 7.- Heard Them Stirring = 8/10 8.- Your Protector = 9/10 9.- Meadowlarks = 8/10 10.- Blue Ridge Mountains = 10/10 11.- Oliver James = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.9/10

Kate Bush - Hounds Of Love One of the best pop albums out there. In a time where everyone was trying to follow the same trend that, while it did sound fresh and good, it started to become repetitive overtime, Kate was one of those few artists that not only experimented into what pop can become, but was able to become popular doing so. It's unfortunate it never got too popular outside of Europe back then, but thanks to the internet, now i know about her music and it's really great! If you like to listen to pop, give yourself a favor and listen to this album. It's a magical first listen, and you'll enjoy it for sure! Overall, this is amazing. 1.- Running Up That Hill (A Deal with God) = 10/10 2.- Hounds Of Love = 10/10 3.- The Big Sky = 10/10 4.- Mother Stands for Comfort = 8/10 5.- Cloudbusting = 10/10 6.- And Dream of Sheep = 9/10 7.- Under Ice = 8/10 8.- Waking the Witch = 8/10 9.- Watching You Without Me = 8/10 10.- Jig of Life = 9/10 11.- Hello Earth = 10/10 12.- The Morning Fog = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 9.1/10

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - Trout Mask Replica One time I saw a vox video that was about this album, describing how it sounded really off and disturbing compared to normal music, and how this band did it on purpose just to prove how much you can experiment with music. Now usually i'm someone whose used to listen to experimental music, but this is too far. For the first time in years, I actually was not prepared to hear an album that was experimental. I tried to be open-minded about the polarizing aspect of the album itself, but it's just hard to defend it being good. The album starts with "Frownland", which it has already an intriguing sound that most people would skip, and from here on out you'll have two options: to end it there or continue listening to this, but beware, this album is unlike anything you have ever heard (and I mean that). There are songs on here that don't even have an instrumental and it's just the lead singer just messing around like "The Dust Blows Forward 'n the Dust Blows Back", "Well" and "Orange Claw Hammer". There are songs here where they really nailed at annoying the listener since there's no redeemable thing about it, tracks like "China Pig", "Hobo Chang Ba", "The Blimp" and "Pena", just straight up awful. Surprisingly though, there were times where they started making songs that actually sounded good, my favorites from it where "Moonlight on Vermont", "Sugar n' Spikes" and the last track. If you're going to go to this madness, remember: expect the unexpected, because this album is one of the messiest ones ever made by any human, surprising considering this album is 5 decades old already. Personally speaking, this is bad. 1.- Frownland = 6/10 2.- The Dust Blows Forward 'n the Dust Blows Back = 3/10 3.- Dachau Blues = 7/10 4.- Ella Guru = 5/10 5.- Hair Pie: Bake 1 = 7/10 6.- Moonlight on Vermont = 8/10 7.- Pachuco Cadaver = 7/10 8.- Bill's Corpse = 4/10 9.- Sweet Sweet Bulbs = 5/10 10.- Neon Meate Dream of a Octafish = 3/10 11.- China Pig = 2/10 12.- My Human Gets Me Blues = 5/10 13.- Dali's Car = 5/10 14.- Hair Pie: Bake 2 = 7/10 15.- Pena = 3/10 16.- Well = 4/10 17.- When Big Joan Sets Up = 6/10 18.- Fallin' Ditch = 5/10 19.- Sugar 'n Spikes = 8/10 20.- Ant Man Bee = 7/10 21.- Orange Claw Hammer = 3/10 22.- Wild Life = 4/10 23.- She's Too Much for My Mirror = 4/10 24.- Hobo Chang Ba = 3/10 25.- The Blimp (Mousetrapreplica) = 2/10 26.- Steal Softly thru Snow = 5/10 27.- Old Fart at Play = 4/10 28.- Veteran's Day Poppy = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 5/10

MGMT - Oracular Spectacular One of the best pop albums of the 2000's. Also, it's surprising that the singles here are better than the rest of the songs on this album (other than "Of Moons, Birds & Monsters). It's really consistent and overall it makes it an enjoyable and fun listen to it. In the end, this is really good! 1.- Time to Pretend = 10/10 2.- Weekend Wars = 9/10 3.- The Youth = 9/10 4.- Electric Feel = 10/10 5.- Kids = 10/10 6.- 4th Dimensional Transition = 8/10 7.- Pieces of What = 7/10 8.- Of Moons, Birds & Monsters = 10/10 9.- The Handshake = 7/10 10.- Future Reflections = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.8/10

The Clash - The Clash A decent punk rock album that, while not being as great as the albums that would be made later on, still had a fresh and rebellious sound to it, which was really great to hear, very consistent and catchy, it's really a fun album to listen! Overall, this is not bad. 1.- Janie Jones = 6/10 2.- Remote Control = 7/10 3.- I'm so Bored with the U.S.A. = 6/10 4.- White Riot = 6/10 5.- Hate & War = 7/10 6.- What's My Name = 7/10 7.- Deny = 8/10 8.- London's Burning = 8/10 9.- Career Opportunities = 6/10 10.- Cheat = 8/10 11.- Protex Blue = 6/10 12.- Police & Thieves = 7/10 13.- 48 Hours = 6/10 14.- Garageland = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.7/10

Björk - Vulnicura First album that I ever hear from her, and it's really good honestly from start to finish. I like how she experimented classical music with electronics and turn it more dysfunctional in a way but still having that lively emotional feel to it. The fact that this was made almost a decade ago genuinely amazes me, this really sounds from the future. Overall, this is REALLY great! 1.- Stonemilker = 10/10 2.- Lionsong = 9/10 3.- HIstory of Touches = 7/10 4.- Black Lake = 10/10 5.- Family = 9/10 6.- Notget = 8/10 7.- Atom Dance = 9/10 8.- Mouth Mantra = 9/10 9.- Quicksand = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.9/10

Nitty Gritty Dirt Album - Will The Circle Be Unbroken Don't get me wrong, I can see this being an enjoyable album for some people, since this album does offer some good country songs to listen, unfortunately however in my case, i just didn't find the enjoyment of going through a 38 Song album from start to finish. Again, this album would've been WAY better if it was shorter. There's like 12 songs here that are actually worth to listen, matter of fact, only the second disc was more consistent and fun than the first disc. If it was shorter, I would've given it a better score than a 1 star. 1.- Grand Ole Opry Song = 5/10 2.- Keep On The Sunny Side = 6/10 3.- Nashville Blues = 7/10 4.- You Are My Flower = 6/10 5.- The Precious Jewel = 6/10 6.- Dark As A Dungeon = 7/10 7.- Tennessee Stud = 5/10 8.- Black Mountain Rag = 5/10 9.- Wreck On The Highway = 4/10 10.- The End Of The World = 6/10 11.- I Saw The Light = 3/10 12.- Sunny Side Of The Mountain = 5/10 13.- Nine Pound Hammer = 4/10 14.- Losin' You (Might Be The Best Thing Yet) = 6/10 15.- Honky Tonkin' = 3/10 16.- You Don't Know My Mind = 4/10 17.- My Walkin' Shoes = 5/10 18.- Lonesome Fiddle Blues = 6/10 19.- Cannonball Rag = 5/10 20.- Avalanche = 5/10 21.- Flint Hill Special = 5/10 22.- Togary Mountain = 6/10 23.- Earl's Breakdown = 4/10 24.- Orange Blossom Special = 7/10 25.- Wabash Cannonball = 4/10 26.- Lost Highway = 6/10 27.- Doc Watson And Merle Travis: First Meeting (Dialogue) = 5/10 28.- Way Downtown = 6/10 29.- Down Yonder = 5/10 30.- Pins And Needles (In My Heart) = 7/10 31.- Honky Tonk Blues = 6/10 32.- Sailin' On To Hawaii = 7/10 33.- I'm Thinking Tonight Of My Blue Eyes = 7/10 34.- I'm A Pilgrim = 5/10 35.- Wildwood Flower = 5/10 36.- Soldier's Joy = 5/10 37.- Will The Circle Be Unbroken = 8/10 38.- Both Sides Now = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 5.3/10

Charlie Byrd & Stan Getz - Jazz Samba As someone who enjoys listening to jazz AND bossa nova, this album is a match made in heaven. I already liked Getz's music after listening to his collab with "Gilberto", and just like that collab, this album offers something to the table with it's rich and natural tone to it. It's great that for once at a time we get to take a break from english-speaking music and listen to other cultures out there, especially to those that are underrated. And it gives a voice to those who wanted to bring art to music but were never heard, if it wasn't for this website, I would've never heard Stan Getz ever. Overall, this is great!! 1.- Desafinado = 9/10 2.- Samba Dees Days = 9/10 3.- O Pato = 8/10 4.- Samba Triste = 9/10 5.- Samba De Uma Nota So = 9/10 6.- E Luxo So = 8/10 7.- Bahia = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.8/10

Bob Marley & The Wailers - Natty Dread Great reggae album coming from Bob Marley which features a lot of political depth into almost every song on here. Short and conscise album, overall this is great! 1.- Lively Up Yourself = 9/10 2.- No Woman No Cry = 9/10 3.- Them Belly Full (But We Hungry) = 8/10 4.- Rebel Music (3 O'Clock Roadblock) = 10/10 5.- So Jah S'eh = 9/10 6.- Natty Dread = 7/10 7.- Bend Down Low = 7/10 8.- Talkin' Blues = 9/10 9.- Revolution = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.7/10

Elvis Costello & The Attractions - Blood And Chocolate First introduction to Elvis Costello and honestly, his music is great. Reminded me of that one iconic song from toy story, but in a good way. This feel so much fun to listen and that's what i mainly appreciate it for, also that it does offer really catchy hooks and riffs and all. Overall, this is good! 1.- Uncomplicated = 9/10 2.- I Hope You're Happy Now = 7/10 3.- Tokyo Storm Warning = 8/10 4.- Home Is Anywhere You Hang Your Head = 8/10 5.- I Want You = 6/10 6.- Honey Are You Straight Or Are You Blind = 7/10 7.- Blue Chair = 8/10 8.- Battered Old Bird = 8/10 9.- Crimes Of Paris = 8/10 10.- Poor Napoleon = 7/10 11.- Next Time Round = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.7/10

Van Morrison - Moondance Such a feel good album to hear. Really enjoyable for a folk album, with some songs sounding really catchy and groovy at times. Overall, this is good! 1.- And It Stoned Me = 8/10 2.- Moondance = 9/10 3.- Crazy Love = 7/10 4.- Caravan = 8/10 5.- Into the Mystic = 9/10 6.- Come Running = 7/10 7.- These Dreams of You = 6/10 8.- Brand New Day = 8/10 9.- Everyone = 6/10 10.- Glad Tidings = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.6/10

Sade - Diamond Life Really good smooth album from sade, first impression was how catchy and melodic it sounded, i really have no other words to explain this, this is really good! 1.- Smooth Operator = 9/10 2.- Your Love Is King = 9/10 3.- Hang On to Your Love = 7/10 4.- Frankie's First Affair = 8/10 5.- When Am I Going to Make a Living = 8/10 6.- Cherry Pie = 9/10 7.- Sally = 9/10 8.- I Will Be Your Friend = 9/10 9.- Why Can't We Live Together = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.3/10

Daft Punk - Homework This is the first album from this website that I had actually heard beforehand (this is my 80th album). I listened to this years ago, way before the band would eventually break up. At first, I appreciated for how experimental it sounded at the time, but as time went by, I realized how crucial this was from their growth to what would eventually be the creations of "Alive 1997" and "Discovery). The album is really long but it offers a ton of new ideas to the table, although few of them might sound annoying at first listen and they do tend to over extend some of their songs here. Highlights on this album are "Revolution 909", "Da Funk", "Fresh", "Around the World", "Burnin'", "Indo Silver Club" and "Alive". I feel old the fact that in two years this album will turn 30 years old. Man, I miss Daft Punk so much, this is good. 1.- Daftendirekt = 8/10 2.- WDPK 83.7 FM = 5/10 3.- Revolution 909 = 9/10 4.- Da Funk = 10/10 5.- Phoenix = 7/10 6.- Fresh = 9/10 7.- Around the World = 9/10 8.- Rollin' & Scratchin' = 6/10 9.- Teachers = 6/10 10.- High Fidelity = 8/10 11.- Rock'n Roll = 5/10 12.- Oh Yeah = 7/10 13.- Burnin' = 9/10 14.- Indo Silver Club = 9/10 15.- Alive = 10/10 16.- Funk Ad = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.8/10

Leonard Cohen - You Want It Darker This is one of the most badass ways to go out in this world, make a final album on your last days. David Bowie did it similarly earlier and it turned out great, it seems that this is just as good as Bowie's. Mostly goes on personal and love themes, that show his lyricism and poetry, which are great. This sounds beautiful but grim, warm but dark, and his voice sounds way deeper than usual here. Massive props to Cohen for making this possible even with his condition, the last track is hauntingly wonderful including the context of his death. Rest in peace Leonard Cohen. 1.- You Want It Darker = 9/10 2.- Treaty = 9/10 3.- On the Level = 7/10 4.- Leaving the Table = 8/10 5.- If I Didn't Have Your Love = 9/10 6.- Travelling Light = 8/10 7.- It Seemed the Better Way = 9/10 8.- Steer Your Way = 7/10 9.- String Reprise / Treaty = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.4/10

Tears For Fears - Songs From The Big Chair An almost perfect album. First song that I ever heard of them was the third track "Everybody Wants to Rule The World", which was enjoyable to say the least. So when I saw that that track is on this album, I didn't expect much, that the rest of the songs were going to be inferior or bad compared to that iconic song. I was wrong. This album offers some genuine good catchy songs that have that 80's feel to it. It really makes you want to move to the beat, I don't know how else to describe it. Overall, this is pretty good. 1.- Shout = 9/10 2.- The Working Hour = 10/10 3.- Everybody Wants to Rule The World = 10/10 4.- Mothers Talk = 8/10 5.- I Believe = 8/10 6.- Broken = 7/10 7.- Head Over Heels / Broken = 10/10 8.- Listen = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.9/10

The Human League - Dare! Very catchy album that depicts the 80's aesthetic really, overall it's great. 1.- The Things That Dreams Are Made Of = 7/10 2.- Open Your Heart = 8/10 3.- The Sound Of The Crowd = 7/10 4.- Darkness = 10/10 5.- Do Or Die = 9/10 6.- Get Carter = 5/10 7.- I Am The Law = 8/10 8.- Seconds = 9/10 9.- Love Action (I Believe In Love) = 10/10 10.- Don't You Want Me = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.3/10

Marvin Gaye - Here, My Dear Even though the album is long, it does compensate back the amount of quality that the album has to offer. It's sad that Mr. Gaye passed away as an early age, because his music alone had showed the genius behind his creative mind. But for now we get to appreciate the ideas that Marvin was able to do while he was still alive. And this is one of them, such an underrated and great album, it's one of those few longer ones that are actually consistent all throughout. Overall, this is pretty good! 1.- Here, My Dear = 7/10 2.- I Met A Little Girl = 9/10 3.- When Did You Stop Loving Me, When Did I Stop Loving You = 10/10 4.- Anger = 8/10 5.- Is That Enough = 9/10 6.- Everybody Needs Love = 8/10 7.- Time To Get It Together = 8/10 8.- Sparrow = 9/10 9.- Anna's Song = 8/10 10.- When Did You Stop Loving Me, When Did I Stop Loving You - Instrumental = 9/10 11.- A Funky Space Reincarnation = 10/10 12.- You Can Leave, But It's Going To Cost You = 8/10 13.- Falling In Love Again = 10/10 14.- When Did You Stop Loving Me, When Did I Stop Loving You - Reprise = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.6/10

Air - Moon Safari French music is really underrated tbh. This sounds really innovative and fresh for something that was made 3 decades ago, and to this day, it still has that energy all throughout on these 10 songs, most of them are chill but they feel more than just that, since this clearly feels as if it was ahead of it's time. Overall, this is really good! 1.- La femme d'argent = 10/10 2.- Sexy Boy = 9/10 3.- All I Need = 8/10 4.- Kelly Watch the Stars = 7/10 5.- Talisman = 9/10 6.- Remember = 8/10 7.- You Make It Easy = 7/10 8.- Ce matin-là = 8/10 9.- New Star in the Sky = 8/10 10.- Le voyage de Pénélope = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.3/10

Ray Charles - The Genius Of Ray Charles This album has some of the most beautiful lyrics I have seen in a long time. It's a coincidence that I got to listen to this days before valentine's. Combining that with jazz and blues, which is a heavenly combo, makes this a great album, something that a 2000's pixar movie would put on as a soundtrack. Honestly, this is great! 1.- Let the Good Times Roll = 8/10 2.- It Had to Be You = 8/10 3.- Alexander's Ragtime Band = 7/10 4.- Two Years of Torture = 9/10 5.- When Your Lover Has Gone = 8/10 6.- Deed I Do = 6/10 7.- Just for a Thrill = 8/10 8.- You Won't Let Me Go = 8/10 9.- Tell Me You'll Wait for Me = 10/10 10.- Don't Let the Sun Catch You Cryin' = 10/10 11.- Am I Blue = 8/10 12.- Come Rain or Come Shine = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.2/10

Björk - Medúlla Really interesting album, yet it sounds really beautiful. I like the fact that Björk went all for it and experimented a lot of new sounds all throughout this album, mostly using voices, acapella and beat-boxing. It surprised me how out of this world this album sounded despite the fact it was just a bunch of people singing at different frequencies and tones, the fact that they barely or haven't used any instruments to this is incredible. This is great! 1.- Pleasure Is All Mine = 9/10 2.- Show Me Forgiveness = 6/10 3.- Where Is The Line = 10/10 4.- Vokuro = 8/10 5.- Oll Birtan = 6/10 6.- Who Is It (Carry My Joy On The Left, Carry My Pain On The Right) = 9/10 7.- Submarine = 8/10 8.- Desired Constellation = 7/10 9.- Oceania = 9/10 10.- Sonnets / Unrealities XI = 7/10 11.- Ancestors = 8/10 12.- Mouths Cradle = 10/10 13.- Midvikudags = 6/10 14.- Triumph Of A Heart = 8/10 FINAL SCORE 8/10

Violent Femmes - Violent Femmes I wish I could enjoy this album personally, but the way they sing and play the melodies throughout the album just turned it off for me. Really rough and out of place at times, while it does sound fun on the surface, it's just not appealing to listen to most of the time. There are some good songs here, but overall, this is decent. 1.- Blister In The Sun = 5/10 2.- Kiss Off = 5/10 3.- Please Do Not Go = 6/10 4 - Add It Up = 7/10 5.- Confessions = 7/10 6.- Prove My Love = 5/10 7.- Promise = 6/10 8.- To The Kill = 7/10 9.- Gone Daddy Gone = 5/10 10.- Good Feeling = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.1/10

Creedence Clearwater Revival - Green River Really great country and blues album coming from CCR. Very consistent and fun to listen to, with songs having a nostalgic feel to it, as well as it being super catchy to hear. Overall, this is great! 1.- Green River = 8/10 2.- Commotion = 9/10 3.- Tombstone Shadow = 7/10 4.- Wrote A Song For Everyone = 8/10 5.- Bad Moon Rising = 9/10 6.- Lodi = 9/10 7.- Cross-Tie Walker = 7/10 8.- Sinister Purpose = 9/10 9.- The Night Time Is The Right Time = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.3/10

Green Day - American Idiot This type of music reminds me of early 2000's The Mars Volta. This is soo good. And from what I heard, Green Day has made better albums than even this. This album is packed with fun moments, great riffs and catchy hooks, overall this is really great! 1.- American Idiot = 7/10 2.- Jesus of Suburbia = 10/10 3.- Holiday = 8/10 4.- Boulevard of Broken Dreams = 9/10 5.- Are We the Waiting = 9/10 6.- St. Jimmy = 8/10 7.- Give Me Novacaine = 9/10 8.- She's a Rebel = 7/10 9.- Extraordinary Girl = 8/10 10.- Letterbomb = 8/10 11.- Wake Me up When September Ends = 10/10 12.- Homecoming = 8/10 13.- Whatsername = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.3/10

Steely Dan - Countdown To Ecstacy Really trippy to listen to, but it's good. Reminds me of something that Yes would do, really good music all throughout, it does have it's lows here and there tho, but it's highs are promising and they do deliver the vibe that this album is trying to achieve. Overall, this is pretty good! 1.- Bodhisattva = 9/10 2.- Razor Boy = 8/10 3.- The Boston Rag = 10/10 4.- Your Gold Teeth = 8/10 5.- Show Biz Kids = 7/10 6.- My Old School = 7/10 7.- Pearl Of The Quarter = 8/10 8.- King Of The World = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.3/10

Fatboy Slim - You've Come a Long Way, Baby At least there are some enjoyable moments here and there, and it is quite fun to listen to, but the music sounds all over the place. One thing goes after the other quickly, it's confusing to listen to this all together. Even though each song does transition to the next, personally it works best in shuffle honestly. It sounds kind of good, but there are other artists that did this better than him, to be honest this is decent. 1.- Right Here, Right Now = 8/10 2.- The Rockafeller Skank = 8/10 3.- Fucking In Heaven = 4/10 4.- Gangster Trippin' = 6/10 5.- Build It Up - Tear It Down = 5/10 6.- Kalifornia = 4/10 7.- Soul Surfing = 4/10 8.- You're Not From Brighton = 4/10 9.- Praise You = 9/10 10.- Love Island = 6/10 11.- Acid 8000 = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 6/10

The Residents - Duck Stab/Buster & Glen This is the most WTF album I have ever heard ever in my life. This is the musical equivalent of "abstract art". I thought I was into experimental music and already knew how it sounded like, until I listened to this... The first song is already insane to listen and the music video is even more so to watch, and that's just the tamest one compared to the rest of this album. It lasts for 35 minutes, but that sounded like an eternity, if there's an album to represent how hell sounds like, it would be this one. Some of the weirdest music I have heard in a long time, it sounds really unique, but also unlistenable. They somehow were able to make a birthday song sound worse than it already was originally. This album cover really DOES depict how this album sounds like for sure. Overall, this is an interesting album... No way I'm listening to this again, or I'll get nightmares from it LMAO 1.- Constantinople = 5/10 2.- Sinister Exaggerator = 3/10 3.- The Booker Tease = 6/10 4.- Blue Rosebuds = 4/10 5.- Laughing Song = 6/10 6.- Bach Is dead = 2/10 7.- Elvis And His Boss = 4/10 8.- Lizard Lady = 5/10 9.- Semolina = 3/10 10.- Birthday Boy = 1/10 11.- Weight Lifting Lulu = 4/10 12.- Krafty Cheese = 2/10 13.- Hello Skinny = 3/10 14.- The Electrocutioner = 5/10 FINAL SCORE: 3.8/10

Paul Weller - Wild Wood Nice album that genuinely makes country sound better, using good riffs and nice vocals coming from Paul Weller. Honestly, this one was a fresh breath of air after the previous album I had to listen to (Duck Stab by the Residents), this is something I'll gladly listen to anyday. Overall, this is good! 1.- Sunflower = 9/10 2.- Can You Heal Us (Holy Man) = 9/10 3.- Wild Wood = 6/10 4.- Instrumental - Pt. 1 = 7/10 5.- All The Pictures On The Wall = 7/10 6.- Has My Fire Really Gone Out? = 8/10 7.- Country = 6/10 8.- Instrumental Two = 6/10 9.- 5th Season = 9/10 10.- The Weaver = 8/10 11.- Instrumental - Pt. 2 = 7/10 12.- Foot Of The Mountain = 7/10 13.- Shadow Of The Sun = 10/10 14.- Holy Man - Reprise = 8/10 15.- Moon On Your Pyjamas = 8/10 16.- Hung Up = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.8/10

The Beatles - With The Beatles Although this is not bad of an album in of itself, compared to the massive and glorious discography that The Beatles have left in their legacy, this is easily their worst. But usually like every great thing that comes in existence, there's always a place to start, so for this to be their first album is not bad, especially to what they would eventually make years later on, making their change really impactful. This album offers nice tunes here and there, reminiscing that of Elvis Presley's style, and also having that 60's style over it, some songs had aged really badly though, like Little Child for instance. Overall, this is decent. 1.- It Won't Be Long = 7/10 2.- All I've Got To Do = 8/10 3.- All My Loving = 8/10 4.- Don't Bother Me = 6/10 5.- Little Child = 3/10 6.- Till There Was You = 5/10 7.- Please Mister Postman = 7/10 8.- Roll Over Beethoven = 6/10 9.- Hold Me Tight = 7/10 10.- You Really Got A Hold On Me = 6/10 11.- I Wanna Be Your Man = 5/10 12.- Devil In Her Heart = 5/10 13.- Not A Second Time = 7/10 14.- Money (That's What I Want) =7/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.2/10

Oasis - Definitely Maybe First time hearing their music other than Wonderwall, and it's way better than I expected. Almost every song here are highlights, really consistent all throughout with it's great riffs and hooks that this album offers. Overall, this is really great! 1.- Rock 'N' Roll Star = 9/10 2.- Shakermaker = 9/10 3.- Live Forever = 9/10 4.- Up In The Sky = 8/10 5.- Columbia = 10/10 6.- Supersonic = 8/10 7.- Bring It On Down = 9/10 8.- Cigarettes & Alcohol = 8/10 9.- Digsy's Dinner = 7/10 10.- Slide Away = 10/10 11.- Married With Children = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.7/10

Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt & Emmylou Harris - Trio Not bad, just a normal chill country album that more or less sounds the same through every track on it (except the last song). The lyrics there are sweet, however the melodies sound really overwhelming, considering the type of things they were singing about. Overall, this is decent. 1.- The Pain of Loving You = 5/10 2.- Making Plans = 6/10 3.- To Know Him Is to Love Him = 6/10 4.- Hobo's Meditation = 5/10 5.- Wildflowers = 7/10 6.- Telling Me Lies = 7/10 7.- My Dear Companion = 7/10 8.- Those Memories of You = 6/10 9.- I've Had Enough = 6/10 10.- Rosewood Casket = 5/10 11.- Farther Along = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.2/10

Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin III While not as impactful as Physical Graffiti or the other 3 self-titled albums, this still has more substance and value than what you would think. This still has it's own highs, while unfortunately in the end it does have some of the lowest low's I've heard from the band. Even with that being said, overall, this is pretty good! 1.- Immigrant Song = 10/10 2.- Friends = 10/10 3.- Celebration Day = 8/10 4.- Since I've Been Loving You = 10/10 5.- Out on the Tiles = 8/10 6.- Gallows Pole = 8/10 7.- Tangerine = 9/10 8.- That's the Way = 9/10 9.- Bron-Y-Aur Stomp = 6/10 10.- Hats off To (Roy) Harper = 5/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.3/10

David Bowie - The Next Day Nice album coming from Bowie from what he would end up releasing years later with Blackstar. Really consistent all throughout, however it's highs are not as promineny as his all time classics. Overall though, this is pretty good! 1.- The Next Day = 8/10 2.- Dirty Boys = 7/10 3.- The Stars (Are Out Tonight) = 10/10 4.- Love Is Lost = 8/10 5.- Where Are We Now? = 9/10 6.- Valentine's Day = 9/10 7.- If You Can See Me = 8/10 8.- I'd Rather Be High = 7/10 9.- Boss Of Me = 8/10 10.- Dancing Out In Space = 7/10 11.- How Does The Grass Grow? = 9/10 12.- (You Will) Set The World On Fire = 9/10 13.- You Feel So Lonely You Could Die = 8/10 14.- Heat = 10/10 FINAL SCORE : 8.4/10

Marvin Gaye - What's Going On It's albums like these that make music more enjoyable to listen to. From start to finish, this album is incredibly consistent in terms of quality and it really trascends through time as an unique album from any other that was made by then. This is a generational album made by a generational artist like Marvin Gaye was. Rarely will anyone be able to replicate what Marvin did with this. This is beautiful. 1.- What's Going On = 10/10 2.- What's Happening Brother = 10/10 3.- Flyin' High (In The Friendly Sky) = 9/10 4.- Save The Children = 8/10 5.- God Is Love = 8/10 6.- Mercy Mercy Me (The Ecology) = 10/10 7.- Right On = 9/10 8.- Wholy Holy = 8/10 9.- Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler) = 10/10 FINAL SCORE: 9.1/10

Ice Cube - AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted I already knew from the start I was up to something good when I started listening to this album from Ice Cube. However, this didn't age well as the other albums he has made, since this mostly talks down upon towards women, which is a dick move to do. Other than that, it's aggressive, straight to your face type of music that goes deep into the political situation that they had to endure in the US during the 90's. Overall, this is good. 1.- Better Off Dead = 6/10 2.- The N***a Ya Love To Hate = 10/10 3.- AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted = 9/10 4.- What They Hittin' Foe? = 8/10 5.- You Can't Fade Me/JD's Gaffilin' = 8/10 6.- Once Upon A Time In The Projects = 9/10 7.- Turn Off The Radio = 8/10 8.- Endangered Species (Tales From The Darkside) = 8/10 9.- A Gangsta's Fairytale = 8/10 10.- I'm Only Out For One Thang = 7/10 11.- Get Off My Dick And Tell Yo Bitch To Come Here = 5/10 12.- The Drive-By = 6/10 13.- Rollin' Wit The Lench Mob = 9/10 14.- Who's The Mack? = 8/10 15.- It's A Man's World = 6/10 16.- The Bomb = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.7/10

Hot Chip - In Our Heads Nice selection of songs that have that 80's sound, but at the same time sound futuristic. This album is really fun to listen to, having some inspiration from Tears For Fears, but also having their own sound, which is cool. Overall, this is good! 1.- Motion Sickness = 9/10 2.- How Do You Do? = 8/10 3.- Don't Deny Your Heart = 7/10 4.- Look At Where We Are = 7/10 5.- These Chains = 8/10 6.- Night And Day = 8/10 7.- Flutes = 8/10 8.- Now There Is Nothing = 7/10 9.- Ends Of The Earth = 7/10 10.- Let Me Be Him = 9/10 11.- Always Been Your Love = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.9/10

Dire Straits - Dire Straits This album sounds minimalist with few things to offer in terms of soundscape. However, they did prefer doing quality over quantity, which it shows a lot on this album too. Conscise and brief, without being too overwhelming for the listener, although it can be underwhelming at times. It does have it's cool moments there though. Overall, this is good. 1.- Down To The Waterline = 8/10 2.- Water Of Love = 7/10 3.- Setting Me Up = 7/10 4.- Six Blade Knife = 6/10 5.- Southbound Again = 7/10 6.- Sultans Of Swing = 10/10 7.- In The Gallery = 9/10 8.- Wild West End = 8/10 9.- Lions = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 7.6/10

Prince - 1999 It is way longer than I expected, but nonetheless there were still powerful moments throughout the album. And as expected coming from Prince, this album sounds really catchy and fun, although it's sensual too. Overall, this is really good! 1.- 1999 = 10/10 2.- Little Red Corvette = 10/10 3.- Delirious = 7/10 4.- Let's Pretend We're Married = 9/10 5.- D. M.S.R. = 8/10 6.- Automatic = 9/10 7.- Something in the Water (Does Not Compute) = 6/10 8.- Free = 10/10 9.- Lady Cab Driver = 7/10 10.- All the Critics Love U in New York = 7/10 11.- International Lover = 9/10 FINAL SCORE : 8.3/10

Cornershop - When I Was Born For The 7th Time This is one of the most confusing albums i ever heard. It's not that the music's necessarily bad, it's just that the genres are all over the place. From bland british rock, to indian music, to hip hop, to suddenly invent vaporwave, to make a punjabi cover of a beatles song? When I saw the album cover, I expected it to sound like a normal punk-rock or an r&b record because of the vibes it gave (this album has two different covers for some reason). I was wrong. There's a lot of weird songs on it, mostly all of them having an indian vibe to it, which is a theme that's recurring throughout the album. There's just no better way to put it. Probably one of the more interesting listens I did from this website, but I'm not going back to listen to this again. 1.- Sleep on the Left Side = 6/10 2.- Brimful of Asha = 8/10 3.- Butter the Soul = 6/10 4.- Chocolat = 6/10 5.- We're in Yr Corner = 6/10 6.- Funky Days Are Back Again = 4/10 7.- What Is Happening? = 1/10 8.- When The Light Appears Boy = 2/10 9.- Coming Up = 6/10 10.- Good Shit = 7/10 11.- Good to Be on the Road Back Home Again = 8/10 12.- It's Indian Tobacco My Friend = 8/10 13.- Candyman = 5/10 14.- State Troopers = 4/10 15.- Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown) = 6/10 FINAL SCORE: 5.5/10

Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin II I already expected this album to sound well, and it did not disappoint, coming from none other than Led Zeppelin themselves. Compared to the third one (that I've listened thus far), this is more aggressive, and far more punched with riffs that make the album have a soul. The fact this was made before the 70's is impressive, because this sounds like something that was truly ahead of their time, and it just so happened to be made by one of the greats to ever do it. Overall, this is really great! 1.- Whole Lotta Love = 9/10 2.- What Is and What Should Never Be = 8/10 3.- The Lemon Song = 9/10 4.- Thank You = 8/10 5.- Heartbreaker = 10/10 6.- Living Loving Maid (She's Just a Woman) = 8/10 7.- Ramble On = 8/10 8.- Moby Dick = 7/10 9.- Bring It on Home = 9/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.4/10

Boston - Boston Now this is the definition of Rock 'n' Roll, feels really nostalgic and very groovy with its riffs and melodies, and it's really catchy to listen. Good thing about this album is its consistency, and how they are able to bring new ideas to the table while still maintaining their sound. Overall, this is pretty good! 1.- More Than a Feeling = 9/10 2.- Peace of Mind = 8/10 3.- Foreplay / Long Time = 8/10 4.- Rock & Roll Band = 8/10 5.- Smokin' = 9/10 6.- Hitch a Ride = 8/10 7.- Something About You = 9/10 8.- Let Me Take You Home Tonight = 7/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.2/10

Paul Simon - Paul Simon Decent chill folk type album coming from someone who was in an iconic band from the 60's. There's really not much here to it other than how nice it feels to listen to it at times, it is incredibly calm to listen but it becomes a flaw, since that sound is consistent and there really isn't much to offer, but it's not bad. Overall though, this is fine. 1.- Mother and Child Reunion = 6/10 2.- Duncan = 6/10 3.- Everything Put Together Falls Apart = 5/10 4.- Run That Body Down = 7/10 5.- Armistice Day = 7/10 6.- Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard = 7/10 7.- Peace Like a River = 6/10 8.- Papa Hobo = 6/10 9.- Hobo's Blues = 5/10 10.- Paranoia Blues = 4/10 11.- Congratulations = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 6.1/10

Kid Rock - Devil Without A Cause There is a huge difference between listening to music and listening to this "music". Just awful. Truly awful in every way. As a rap fan myself, this is a huge stain for the culture, and I'm glad that hardly anyone ever remembers this album's existence to begin with. It's disappointing that this album somehow got to be into this website in the first place, I could've gone my whole life without ever hearing this album ever, but here I am. If I was eminem myself, I would have NEVER been involved with an album like this AT ALL. Every way you can think of this going bad ends up being worse than expected. This is why white guys have a bad stereotype of being vultures in the rap culture, because of people like him, trying to appeal to a certain demographic instead of respect what rap truly is and experiment with it without losing it's fundamentals and essence that hip-hop actually has. It's sad, cause there's actually some good white rappers out there like El-P, Aesop Rock, Mac Miller, Lil Ugly Mane, R.A. the Rugged Man, and of course, Eminem, and yet people like "Kid Rock" just ruin it for everyone who are genuinely respecting the culture and not turning it into their own thing. This was embarassing to hear, I wished I had 1 hour and 11 minutes back into life, it really was a waste of time. Overall, this is BAD. 1.- Bawitdaba = 5/10 2.- Cowboy = 3/10 3.- Devil Without a Cause = 2/10 4.- I Am the Bullgod = 3/10 5.- Roving Gangster (Rollin') = 2/10 6.- Wasting Time = 4/10 7.- Welcome 2 the Party (Ode 2 the Old School) = 1/10 8.- I Got One for Ya' = 6/10 9.- Somebody's Gotta Feel This = 4/10 10.- Fist of Rage = 4/10 11.- Only God Knows Why = 3/10 12.- Fuck Off = 4/10 13.- Where U at Rock = 3/10 14.- Black Chick, White Guy / I Am the Bullgod = 1/10 FINAL SCORE: 3.2/10

Blue Cheer - Vincebus Eruptum This is the equivalent of Led Zeppelin if they started making metal music in the 70's instead of rock. The fact that Blue Cheer were the ones who pioneered into what heavy metal would eventually become is quite awesome. Has some quite great riffs here and there, really surprises you every time they play the guitar, it catches you off-guard, while they just goofing around making some good music. Overall, this is really good! 1.- Summertime Blues = 10/10 2.- Rock Me Baby = 8/10 3.- Doctor Please = 9/10 4.- Out Of Focus = 7/10 5.- Parchment Farm = 8/10 6.- Second Time Around = 8/10 FINAL SCORE: 8.3/10
