Talking Book by Stevie Wonder
Nov 27 2024

Colorful instrumental flourishes hardly detract from the accessible, catchy song structures that serve to frame Stevie's expressive vocals. Overall, a very catchy, engaging album that is perfect for Sunday morning brunch. 8.8/10

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Nov 28 2024

There are strong influences of classic blues as well as bluegrass that make the album an interesting listen. While it is an interesting blend of genres, the group ultimately fails to move ahead, in a more creative and unique direction. It feels that the artists were content to re-hash traditional, american sounds and blend them into a more accessible package. 7.2/10

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Nov 29 2024

Very solid debut album. Refreshing call-backs to traditional american folk music but it isn't afraid to push the classic sound in innovative directions. Cozy album for log-cabins and cool mornings. 8.2/10

Imagine by John Lennon
Dec 02 2024

Overrated. 7/10

Be by Common
Dec 03 2024

7.8/10

Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
Dec 13 2024

very neat.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand
Dec 17 2024

indie essential, very dated sound but overall still decent. 6/10

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Dec 23 2024

decent

Pieces Of The Sky by Emmylou Harris
Feb 07 2025

not my style but I appreciate the artistry of the instrumentation and vocal harmonies. 7.3/10

Back To Black by Amy Winehouse
Feb 10 2025

simultaneously original and innovative while still being timelessly classic. 8.2/10

Dummy by Portishead
Feb 17 2025

not for me

Bad by Michael Jackson
Feb 24 2025

perfect
