This album was surprisingly great. I like their unique sound, which brings so much to each track on the album. Real great stuff.

Let's Stay Together

Al Green

4/5

Great soul, very listenable and smooth. Al Green has such a distinctive voice that really connects well with the song and the listener. Songs can get a bit repetitive, but overall a great listen.

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

Fleet Foxes

4/5

Lots of familiar classics heard on this album. Not much my thing, but enjoyable.

The Cars

3/5

Lots of straight-ahead rock. Not very much my thing, but they executed the songs really well. Some repetitiveness, but overall, a mediocre experience.

Pretenders

5/5

This album was surprisingly great. I like their unique sound, which brings so much to each track on the album. Real great stuff.

Shaka Zulu

Ladysmith Black Mambazo

5/5

Quite enjoyable

The Velvet Underground

1/5

Singers could not sing on pitch, drums were really random (like a 2 year old played them) every song is a ballad apart from one or 2 songs. I actually ended up skipping some songs because they were predictable and repetitive. The upbeat song consisted of the lead singer trying to belt off their part. It was very repetitive and boring. I can at least say I gave it a chance.

The Pleasure Principle

Gary Numan

2/5

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Beatles

4/5

Quite surprised how much I enjoyed this one. I may need to give another listen to properly give certain parts attention. This album gives me a respect for the beatles I didn't have before.

Exile On Main Street

The Rolling Stones

5/5

The Hour Of Bewilderbeast

Badly Drawn Boy

3/5

Not much my type of music. Hear lots of indie and straight-ahead pop influence.

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

4/5

Very nice blend of jazz, country, and folk music. Makes me think of a white Ella Fitzgerald. It is very much of its time, but a great listen.

Superfly

Have grown to really appreciate Curtis Mayfield. Love this.

Your New Favourite Band

Black Sabbath

4/5

Nota bad album. Very classic sound, musicians are spot on. Not a lot of singing, but pretty chilled and enjoyable rock album.

My Generation

Not the best rock album I heard. There are definitely better ones out there, but it was not the worst album.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

5/5

Homework

Daft Punk

4/5

A favorite from my childhood.

Songs In The Key Of Life

Stevie Wonder

5/5

One of my all time favorite albums

Gorillaz

5/5

One of Gorillaz's best albums in my opinion. My personal favorite is plastic beach, but this is my second favorite album. So different for the time it was released. Very intriguing concept of an album. It always surprises me how their first album was a concept album that had a digital band that was backing for it. There is even a lore behind all of the fictional characters of the band. Groundbreaking album by a groundbreaking band.

Abbey Road

Beatles

3/5

It’s mid. Only highlight for me was here comes the sun.

Clube Da Esquina

Milton Nascimento

5/5

Love this album. Sounds so expressive. I'm a big fan of Milton Nascimento.

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

3/5

It was alright. Sounded very experimental, required my fullest attention. Wouldn't put this on unless I needed inspiration. This album appeals to a specific audience and I have to be in a certain mood to listen to it. And even then, I think there are better albums for that.
