Slanted And Enchanted

Pavement

2/5

Interesting sounds but often clashing chords. Only about one truly good song on the album.

Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers

3/5

The album is carried by its few excellent tracks. It wasn't a no skip album. Constant California motifs help keep it consistent.

Sunday At The Village Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio

4/5

Great album, good improvisation from all trio members. Bill Evans doesn't disappoint

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

2/5

Solid but nothing special

The ArchAndroid

Janelle Monáe

2/5

Probably not a bad album if you like the style. However, it is not for me personally. Can't say I would recommend it to a friend.

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen

2/5

Very situational album written by an interesting individual near the end of their life. Vocals sound raspy and dull through years of smoking and the whole album is musically rather uninteresting.

Paris 1919

John Cale

3/5

Solid album. Classic 70s feel. Middle of the road.

Gris Gris

Dr. John

2/5

Unique sounds and style, however, the vocals don't add much. Gris-Gris Gumbo Ya Ya I had to skip, Dense Fambeaux was a more palletable improvement or perhaps I just got used to the style after starting so abrasive. Jump Sturdy is certainly a highlight.

Different Class

Pulp

2/5

Not good not bad. Didn't need to skip any songs, but wouldn't probably listen again.

Another Music In A Different Kitchen

Buzzcocks

2/5

Early rock style with teen angst vocals. A good testament to garage rock, but not one I'd listen to again.

La Revancha Del Tango

Gotan Project

3/5

Interesting style, very unique. Some of the tracks could have been a minute or two shorter.

Adele

4/5

Truly on the great albums if our generstion, however it was all I heard on the radio at one point so I'm a bit tired of the songs.

In Our Heads

Hot Chip

3/5

Good style but not very interesting. Couple of good tracks but overall interesting.

Franz Ferdinand

3/5

Solid album but Take me out stands above the rest. Good for that reason but not much else special.

Honky Tonk Heroes

Waylon Jennings

3/5

I wasn't expecting this one to but good but it was. Seems far enough from country and close enough to folk that it was enjoyable.
