Play by Moby

Pink Moon by Nick Drake
Jan 15 2025

Liked this one a lot more than I was expecting. Might throw it on in the morning next to my fireplace and coffee this weekend as the world freezes away

Only By The Night by Kings of Leon
Jan 16 2025

Best album so far! Genuinely enjoyed a handful of songs. "Use Somebody" being the highlight. Would probably enjoy a live show of theirs.

Elephant Mountain by The Youngbloods
Jan 17 2025

Starts strong with "Darkness, Darkness", got kinda bored until "Sham" which had that 60s rock sound I love. "Ride the Wind" closer was nice. Enjoyed the piano and xylophone pieces. Correction: Ride the Wind was def the best song on the album. Thought some of the songs sounded similar to the Grateful Dead... turns out they were in San Francisco at the same time! And the Dead covers "CC Rider" which i didn't even know was a cover.

Vol. 4 by Black Sabbath
Jan 20 2025

This album simply kicks ass. Always avoided them bc of their description as a metal band but honestly found them to be closer to hard rock ala Led Zeppelin. Even had a ballad in there that was nice. Also didn't know they wrote "changes", a song that sounds great regardless of who's singing it. Think that speaks to the quality of the songwriting.

Ramones by Ramones
Jan 21 2025

Very punk rock 🤘

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Jan 22 2025

There's a reason they call him the King. Far from his best album though.

Fear and Whiskey by Mekons
Jan 23 2025

Not a single memorable song for me, but wasn't offensive

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Jan 24 2025

Who's this Timothee Chalamet wannabe?

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jan 27 2025

I'm a simple man. I see RHCP. I rate 5 stars.

Pet Sounds by The Beach Boys
Jan 28 2025

Beach Boys harmonies are probably the closest thing we'll ever come to hearing actual angels sing.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
Jan 29 2025

Maybe baby I actually liked this album...

Jan 30 2025

A 16 minute song to start the album followed by a 15 minuter? Shortest song is 3 minutes? I knew I was going have a good time with this one. Normally I think most electronic albums start to sound the same, but each song had its own identity and found myself grooving from start to finish.

My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello
Feb 03 2025

Was kinda forgettable the first go around but liked it more on 2nd listen. "Alison" probably being the highlight. Can clearly hear the influence he gave musicians that came after him. Also can hear the influence from Buddy Holly which was made obvious due to our recent listen of his.

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Feb 04 2025

If I was a young girl in the 60s and I saw this man perform live, I'd scream like that too.

Smash by The Offspring
Feb 05 2025

Like this one more than anticipated! The vocals are unique and definitely a highlight. Stand out was "come out and play" for me.

New Forms by Roni Size
Feb 06 2025

Yikes no way I'm listening to all 2 hours of this

The Predator by Ice Cube
Feb 07 2025

Is this the same guy from the acclaimed films "Are We There Yet" and "Are We There Yet 2"?

Ten by Pearl Jam
Feb 10 2025

"Black" was the highlight for me. Had lots of enjoyable songs. May not come back and listen to the whole thing again but definitely had a few standouts that I'll revisit.

Paul Simon by Paul Simon
Feb 11 2025

If the super bowl hangover wasn't putting me to sleep, this finished the job.

Abraxas by Santana
Feb 12 2025

You know I love everything my Mexican brethren do 🇲🇽

C'est Chic by CHIC
Feb 18 2025

My greatest regret in life is not being born in time to enjoy the discotheque in its prime.

Stankonia by OutKast
Feb 26 2025

Never listened to this one all the way through but now i can say that this is a solud album! Has some greats hits like "Ms. Jackson" and "So Fresh, So Clean". Honorable mention to "Humble Mumble" and "Stankonia (Stanklove)". 2nd half of the album was a lot stronger than the 1st half.

The Message by Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five
Feb 28 2025

I liked "The Message" but didn't particularly find any of the other songs memorable

Ellington at Newport by Duke Ellington
Mar 06 2025

I can appreciate the history but this album did not do it for me. Waaayyy too much talky talky and not enough music

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
Mar 10 2025

As good as jazz gets. At least in terms of my limited knowledge of the genre.

Le Tigre by Le Tigre
Mar 12 2025

Not for me

...Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
Mar 14 2025

Some solid pop songs on here. But ultimately don't think I'd come back to them other than the hits

It's Blitz! by Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Mar 18 2025

Not a single memorable song for me.

Mar 19 2025

Enjoyed the vocals and overall sound from these guys. Probably won't seek out on my own but if they come on in the wild, I'll take a moment to appreciate it!

Mar 26 2025

Solid rock album with all "long" songs! Enjoyed the 30 minutes I listened to it but no songs live up to the greatness of their two hits.

Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto
Mar 28 2025

Tanto Tempo? More like not enough tempo

On The Beach by Neil Young
Apr 01 2025

Very depressing indeed

Station To Station by David Bowie
Apr 02 2025

Not my fave bowie album but definitely worth a listen

Apr 04 2025

Solid album that I think I'll have to listen through again to gain a full appreciation. 3.5 stars for now

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
Apr 08 2025

Some all time psych rock classics on this album. Gotta show it some love!
