Pearl by Janis Joplin
Nov 28 2024

Move over - 4/5 Cry baby - 3/5 A woman left lonely - 2/3 Half moon - 5/5 The blues - 4/5 My baby - 2/5 Me and bobby McGee - 3/5 Mercedes Benz - 3/5 Trust me - 3/5 Get it while you can - 3/5 3.3/5

Pretenders by Pretenders
Nov 29 2024

Precious - 4/5 The phone call - 2.5/3 Up the neck - 3/4 Tattooed love boys - 5/5 Space invader - 4/5 The wait - 5/5 Stop your sobbing - 3.5/5 Kid - 4.5/5 Private life - 3.2/5 Brass in pocket - 5/5 Lovers of today - 2/5 Mystery achievement - 5/5 4.09/5 My mom loves them, lol. I've never really liked Chrissie's voice (maybe that's why I like the instrumental Space Invader more?). The songs in general have a nice catch. Songs I might listen to again: tattooed love boys, the wait (nice bass line), brass in pocket, mystery achievement

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Nov 30 2024

Favorite of mine, oc. Kinda ahead of its time. after years of listening to it I seemed to hear a similarity in the voice of Ian Curtis and that of Jim Morrison, am I going crazy? Disorder - 5/5 strong start Day of the lords - 5/5 (personal fav) Candidate - 4.8/5 Insight - 4.8/5 New dawn fades - 5/5 She's lost control - 4.2/5 Shadowplay - 5/5 Wilderness - 4.7 Interzone - 4.9/5 I remember nothing - 4.6/5 4.7/5

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan
Dec 01 2024

Rikki don't lose that number - 2/5 Night by night - 2.8/5 Any major dude will tell you - 1/5 Barrytown - 1/5 East St. Louis toodle-oo - 3.2/5 Parker's band - 1.5/5 Through with buzz - 1/5 Pretzel logic - 1.8/5 With a gun - 1.8/5 Charlie freak - 1.8/5 Monkey in your soul - 1/5 1.7/5 Dad rock (Not my thing?) Dire Straits are better, sorry not sorry.

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Dec 02 2024

my bad, i didn't know the story of Johnny Cash's live concerts in prisons (and apparently there are other concert albums of his on this list). it was interesting to learn about it. Love the energy of the crowd but tbh I don't really care and... I hate country.

Eliminator by ZZ Top
Dec 03 2024

Is it called "Eliminator" because it makes you want to eliminate yourself? Anyway, even though the songs might have seemed interesting at first, they lost me soon after. Each song seemed similar to the other. It could have been a shorter album or even an EP.

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Dec 04 2024

Why I think 'One-Sided Love Affair' would fit perfectly on Will Wood's The Normal Album. Good album for its time, I think. Nothing groundbreaking. "Money Honey" will always be a Lady Gaga song, sorry.

Document by R.E.M.
Dec 05 2024

Finest worksong - 3/5 Welcome to the occupation - 4.5/5 Exhuming McCarthy - 5/5 Disturbance at the heron house - 4.6/5 Strange - 3.8/5 It's the end of the world as we know it - 4.8/5 The one I love - 5/5 Fireplace - 5/5 Lighting Hopkins - 4.8/5 King of birds - 4/5 Oddfellows local 151 - 4.8/5 4.48/5

A Girl Called Dusty by Dusty Springfield
Dec 06 2024

Not my cup of tea, just feels like typical '60s pop to me.

Signing Off by UB40
Dec 08 2024

I don't like reggae, not with this voice. The saxophone is ok but I didn't really like it. Every song seemed the same to me. 'King' is the one I liked the most. The album cover gives me a headache

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Dec 09 2024

Good (I guess?) but not for me.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
Dec 10 2024

Strong start full of hits, second part a bit weaker, after all it was their first album. Not their best but a solid start.
