Popular Reviews

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers

Back in the day yes. Now… too much going on

Arise by Sepultura

Max back at it. Glad they re-recorded these albums. I stand with Sepultura is Max and Igor. The classic albums are just so heavy, you can feel what’s about to come. My neck hurts…..

This is what I’m talking about. House, techno, trance feel good continuous rhythms. In rotation and other albums listened to. This is what I’m looking Don when I just want that uhn tiss uhn tiss uhn tiss.

Jan 15 2025

Only album of theirs that I even consider to listen too. In my teenage heyday I was in step, but as I grow older, the mood of rebellion has shifted. True craftsmanship in their form on this album. Unplugged doesn’t not get any better than this.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Jan 16 2025

Monumental in my musical exploration. Thank you David Berger.

Murmur by R.E.M.
Jan 17 2025

Not my forte. For the time it was released, I can see why it would’ve been a big deal. Not my crowd. Meh 🫤

At Mister Kelly's by Sarah Vaughan
Jan 19 2025

Need a glass of whisky and a cigar for this one.

Amnesiac by Radiohead
Jan 20 2025

Took me by surprise. It will definitely go in the rotation. Young me would’ve had this if he only knew…

Channel Orange by Frank Ocean
Jan 21 2025

This came out of nowhere, wish I would’ve visited it sooner. This is the album JT wished he’d made. It’s smoove, definitely a late night drive album.

The Man Who by Travis
Jan 22 2025

Reminds me of oasis. Not here or there, but I would introduce someone to it if they were down that road. Still nothing to buy a shirt over.

It's Too Late to Stop Now by Van Morrison
Jan 23 2025

Great hits, solid recording. Wouldn’t pick it solely to listen to again.

Raw Power by The Stooges
Jan 24 2025

The Stooges will always remind me of Dad. One morning before school he walked in to me bumping their first recorded and asked what the hell was playing. Those huge ass speakers were so loud. The raw punk still coming through on this album.

In A Silent Way by Miles Davis
Jan 25 2025

Awesome possum. Dim lights and nice company. I understand why he is held in high regard. If I found this on vinyl for a decent price I would pick it up.

One World by John Martyn
Jan 26 2025

It went. Haven’t heard of him before, poppy and upbeat. Not for me though.

Jan 27 2025

Awesome possum. Dim lights and nice company. I understand why he is held in high regard. If I found this on vinyl for a decent price I would pick it up.

Jan 28 2025

No thanks. Groovy bass lines and maybe a banger or two.

The Boatman's Call by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Jan 29 2025

No thanks. Groovy bass lines and maybe a banger or two.

Californication by Red Hot Chili Peppers
Jan 31 2025

Back in the day yes. Now… too much going on

The Velvet Underground & Nico by The Velvet Underground
Feb 01 2025

Found this one at the pawn shop in high school, didn’t like it then, don’t like it now.

Feb 02 2025

Amazing!! Can’t stop listening to it. Tragic story, the artist died in a fire the same year was released, just one album, that’s all he left us. So damn good. So perfect. Even caught Jasper’s attention. You feel as if you’re living this album. Perfect atmosphere, reminds me of the Lost Highway soundtrack.

Pieces Of The Sky by Emmylou Harris
Feb 03 2025

Classic country. I could’ve listened to this again.

Achtung Baby by U2
Feb 04 2025

Next. Not a fan of U2 as we know.

Konnichiwa by Skepta
Feb 05 2025

Damn near solid. Glad this popped up, been looking for some good Rap/Hip-Hop.

Rock 'N Soul by Solomon Burke
Feb 06 2025

Didn’t know Idles covered his song. Really good easy listening. Would recommend.

Feb 08 2025

Should’ve listened to this more in high school. Good stuff. Outside the “singles” it’s truly solid all the way around.

B-52's by The B-52's
Feb 09 2025

Super fun listen. Will as to the collection.

Moon Safari by Air
Feb 11 2025

Great background music. Scenery comes to mind. Very cinematic.

Feb 12 2025

This was a fun listen. Different and catchy. Consider them added. Very funky and poppy, slow and upbeat.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Feb 13 2025

Smooth listening. Loved the vocals.

The Undertones by The Undertones
Feb 14 2025

Great punk vibe. Definitely would’ve listened to in high school and later. Sound like what I suppose the clash sound like

The Genius Of Ray Charles by Ray Charles
Feb 16 2025

Easy listening. For the time and place I see why he got so big. Good grooves. Me likey

Horses by Patti Smith
Feb 18 2025

Couldn’t do it. Sorry.

Imperial Bedroom by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Feb 20 2025

Good stuff. Need my baby by my side and a warm fire.

Electric Prunes by The Electric Prunes
Feb 21 2025

Low volume. Didn’t commit time to this, will have to come back….maybe.

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder
Feb 22 2025

always good. I tend to forget how immersive his albums are. Til we meet again Mr. Wonder.

Nothing's Shocking by Jane's Addiction
Feb 24 2025

I always deemed them as artsy to a fault. Music is good and his voice is perfect for it. I wouldn’t skip it now.

The Wall by Pink Floyd
Feb 25 2025

10/10 cmon meow.

Revolver by Beatles
Feb 26 2025

The Beatles, nuff said.

Shleep by Robert Wyatt
Feb 27 2025

Couldn’t get pass track two, maybe some other time. 🤷‍♂️

The Yes Album by Yes
Feb 28 2025

Greatness from front to back. Yes!!

Dusty In Memphis by Dusty Springfield
Mar 01 2025

Added. Sultry voice. Fireside.

Djam Leelii by Baaba Maal
Mar 02 2025

No thanks. Too slow.

Run-D.M.C. by Run-D.M.C.
Mar 03 2025

Took me 30 years, but I see why they were the boom of hip hop. Samples for days and wonderful rhythmic flow.

Tidal by Fiona Apple
Mar 04 2025

Strong voice, sad I’ve avoided her. Perfect for the 90’s lovey, heart broken, free and independent feel. What a great time for music really. She cemented herself amongst the top females of the era.

Green Onions by Booker T. & The MG's
Mar 05 2025

Smooooooth. Not big on instrumentals, but they take the cake. Dim lights, smoky room.

Innervisions by Stevie Wonder
Mar 06 2025

Such a blast, bought the vinyl at goodwill and never looked back. Walked into it not knowing and glad I found out.

New Forms by Roni Size
Mar 07 2025

Not available.

Bert Jansch by Bert Jansch
Mar 09 2025

Nice folksy, didn’t sit through the whole thing. Wasn’t what I needed at the moment you can say. Won’t be coming back.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Mar 11 2025

Very bluesy and nice in the ears, still no Beatles though 😆. The stones definitely stuck to their type of sound.

Low by David Bowie
Mar 12 2025

Spacey, poppy and and easy to catch on to. Background music for sure.

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Mar 13 2025

Definitely a chill session album. Haven’t had one of those in a whhhiillleee.

3 Feet High and Rising by De La Soul
Mar 14 2025

Smoove grooves. Added. Perfect music for getting work done.

Casanova by The Divine Comedy
Mar 16 2025

This was different. It’s as if each song was a different scene in a movie. Definitely background music to make the time go by.

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Mar 18 2025

Just what I’ve been looking for. Smooth beats. Can’t believe it took this long. The story telling the sampling. Such a great listen.

1999 by Prince
Mar 19 2025

Fucking aye. Don’t have a reason for never listening to him, definitely keeping my ears open when it comes to more Prince down the line.

Live At The Regal by B.B. King
Mar 21 2025

Watched him in 04-06, great memories. Got to witness a legend. Just don’t listen to the blues like I use to.

Synchronicity by The Police
Mar 22 2025

Meh, I’ll take it. Won’t be looking for it, time for the Police has gone and went for me.

Mar 23 2025

Never was a fan. That whiny nihilistic holier than thou vocalist can suck it. The music is great, but unfortunately the vocals are a no go.

C'est Chic by CHIC
Mar 25 2025

That 70’s groove we all know and love. Great background soundtrack. Groove to the bone.

Vivid by Living Colour
Mar 28 2025

Unavailable, sad, I know it’s good stuff.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
Mar 29 2025

Good not bad. In high school I’d have been all over it, I appreciate his contribution to the folk landscape. That voice though

Shalimar by Rahul Dev Burman
Mar 30 2025

Cool soundtrack.

Vulnicura by Björk
Mar 31 2025

Nope. Just can’t bring myself to it. Sorry bjork. Not my cup of Joe.

American Idiot by Green Day
Apr 01 2025

Graduation year, who knew this would be the last album my circle of high school friends would be associated with. We hated it, we loved it, we didn’t know how to take it. Good grooves, this was their jump from the cliff. They gained a lot of new fans over this one

Boston by Boston
Apr 02 2025

Brings back those right out of high school feels. Banger to banger to banger. Album is straight from start to finish. Definitely in rotation.

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
Apr 03 2025

Loved the atmosphere. Funky, groovy. Throwing shit it on and showing it to everyone.

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Apr 07 2025

Couldn’t crack the code. Too slow, still trying to find out the “why”. Maybe another listen might help, but I’m definitely not encouraged to look for more by them.

Moving Pictures by Rush
Apr 09 2025

Soooo goood. Prog at its finest. Took too long to this listen to this one in full as well. Glad this popped up. Time for a deep dive.

Phrenology by The Roots
Apr 10 2025

Top notch. Will be listening to their discography. The randomness at the end, the different genres they put into it. Super excited this opened me to them.

Kid A by Radiohead
Apr 12 2025

A bit slow, but deliciously soundscapy. I prefer the others over this one.

Ramones by Ramones
Apr 14 2025

High school days gone past. The fastest punk I had listened too, learned multiple songs and then slowly faded away from them. That fun punk, play as fast as we want, sing as little as we want. Speed and more speed. Such great times.

Machine Gun Etiquette by The Damned
Apr 17 2025

Total fucking punk. A little to the wayside, but brings you right back. 100% on this one. Angst, speed, message, just fun.

Apr 18 2025

Caught by surprise. This is where I should’ve started with him. Now I get why he was a big deal. Folksy, wonderful story telling. I can handle his voice on this one.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Apr 19 2025

Too indie for me. No thanks.

The Modern Lovers by The Modern Lovers
Apr 20 2025

Great energy. Will spin again. Punky, rocky sleazy.

The Band by The Band
Apr 22 2025

Background 70’s ccr vibe.

Heartattack And Vine by Tom Waits
Apr 24 2025

This was perfect on that rainy day. His voice got to me at times, but the vibe was definitely fit for rain

Hypocrisy Is The Greatest Luxury by The Disposable Heroes Of Hiphoprisy
Apr 25 2025

Super smooth hip hop. From front to back, social issues brought to the forefront. I am comfortable in saying that everything he touches on them is still an issue with society today in 2025. Sad how we haven’t changed as a society and his lyrics still ring true today. Have we not learned to accept one another as human?

Joan Armatrading by Joan Armatrading
Apr 26 2025

Not my forte. Folksy I guess. Vocals are nice at times.

Apr 28 2025

Didn’t sit through it. Classic rock vibe, maybe later.

Live! by Fela Kuti
Apr 29 2025

Ginger Baker!! Yea. Done. Gimme all of it.

Dust by Screaming Trees
May 01 2025

Pretty shnazzy. Understand why the name comes up a lot. Kept me interested, but I would sway off at times.

Pretzel Logic by Steely Dan
May 03 2025

You always hear so much about them, then you listen, then you move on. This is a definitely a keeper. The 70’s all summed up in one album.

Arise by Sepultura
May 04 2025

Max back at it. Glad they re-recorded these albums. I stand with Sepultura is Max and Igor. The classic albums are just so heavy, you can feel what’s about to come. My neck hurts…..

The Bends by Radiohead
May 05 2025

Put it there. Mellow, angsty, 90’s all over. I can dig it.

...And Justice For All by Metallica
May 06 2025

Right before their big mainstream break. Poor Jason, those bass lines are killer. A great prog album, sure it’s heavy, but the music does tell a story. You see them branching out, but still holding on tight. Would’ve never seen what they had coming after this one.

Lam Toro by Baaba Maal
May 07 2025

Too worldly for me.

May 08 2025

The music is there. Her voice though, dragged out. She seems like she was wanting to be the female version of Kurt. Great heavy grungy guitar and solid bass lines. The groove is there for the band.

Tres Hombres by ZZ Top
May 10 2025

Cmon!! Home grown boys from Texas.

Oedipus Schmoedipus by Barry Adamson
May 11 2025

Perfect soundtrack to life love the atmosphere the different directions each track takes.

She's So Unusual by Cyndi Lauper
May 12 2025

80’s gal pal vibe. I can do her voice…at times. Very happy go lucky. I’m gonna give it to her though, she came in and dominated in her own special way.

Rust Never Sleeps by Neil Young & Crazy Horse
May 13 2025

I forget how much I enjoy his voice. The music is there and very American-y. He sings to you like a friend who cares.

The Idiot by Iggy Pop
May 14 2025

Fell asleep to this and it did make a nice ear worm. Will have to listen to when I’m awake. His frantic vocals, the energy he exudes through the speakers.

The Chronic by Dr. Dre
May 15 2025

Minus the misogyny of the day, this is a certified keeper. He burst on the scene with his own take on grooves and simple vocal rhythm. So much greatness in this one. The collaborations were amazing. The word play is there, the story telling is in your face, not as strong as NWA, but it’s there.

A Date With The Everly Brothers by The Everly Brothers
May 16 2025

Poppy 60’s music. Everyone had this style going around. Great to listen to, love songs of course, although a lot of songs from them days teeter around being a tad bit creepy. The music is a great example o the pop charts.

I Should Coco by Supergrass
May 17 2025

Fucking aright meow. This one shocked me, all over punky, alternative, pop from left to right. Very catchy indeed. Will go into rotation.

Tommy by The Who
May 18 2025

Never seen the movie. This is definitely a soundtrack, the moods and stories are there. You can see the picture unfolding. Need to watch that movie.

Destroyer by KISS
May 19 2025

Straight dirty rock and roll. It’s there, but not enough to be there. Still a solid album of the times.

War by U2
May 20 2025

Skip. Maybe later

KIWANUKA by Michael Kiwanuka
May 21 2025

Boom!! Adding. Very smooth and eccentric. Soul, I presume. Beautiful driving music.

Hot Fuss by The Killers
May 22 2025

Good stuff. Ahead and behind their time. A true Indy poppy album. Front to back was a good listen. Wish they would’ve stuck around a bit longer. Will have to give the other albums a spin.

The Beach Boys Today! by The Beach Boys
May 23 2025

What a different direction! I knew they had a few albums that were psychedelic to say the least, but when you influence the Beatles, where do you stop. This would’ve been the battle I would’ve love to see, not the stones vs Beatles. Brian Wilson with his catchy pop lines and musical ability to create a sonic scape of sound pleasing and terrifying to the listener. Are they started off as a go lucky California boy band, but they matured to new heights in their career.

Moondance by Van Morrison
May 24 2025

Okie dokie artichoke. Not my type, but I’ve heard a few along the years. On a road trip maybe, in rotation, no. Catchy, but not my type of fish.

Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots by The Flaming Lips
May 25 2025

Love it. Life background music. Never gave them much thought, saw them open for weeper and it was a tad…there. This album builds the painting color by color.

The Number Of The Beast by Iron Maiden
May 27 2025

Bought this cd because of the cover. Teenage me was blown away. I found out about maiden through Cradle of Filth’s hallowed be thy name cover. Speed, acrobatics, thundering bass, booming drums and his voice. This opened the door to classic heavy metal for me. Obsessed with this one. None of their other albums will top this one for me.

Paranoid by Black Sabbath
May 28 2025

Not my first intro to them, but as soon as Fairies kicked I knew it was over for me. Their self titled was perfect for teen me, but when I got my hands on this at KMart fuuuuuccckkkkk. Front to back, front to back. There was no stopping them at this point.

Caetano Veloso by Caetano Veloso
May 30 2025

Nice world vibe. Bass lines come in groovy, catchy, head bobbin grooves. Voice is on point and goes with the style. I may have to venture into this genre a tad more.

3 + 3 by The Isley Brothers
May 31 2025

Soul brothers. That classic 70’s funk and rock.

Low-Life by New Order
Jun 01 2025

80’s new wave. I get the hype now. Uppy and happy. Definitely makes you want to dance. I’ll venture into their catalog for sure. I now understand the club hype and gen x love for them.

Ellington at Newport by Duke Ellington
Jun 03 2025

Smooth and live. I likes it. It won’t go in permanent rotation, but I would recommend it to those that are curious. Great sound for being recorded in a public setting.

Jun 04 2025

This is what I’m talking about. House, techno, trance feel good continuous rhythms. In rotation and other albums listened to. This is what I’m looking Don when I just want that uhn tiss uhn tiss uhn tiss.

Africa Brasil by Jorge Ben Jor
Jun 06 2025

World music, bossa nova, first track must have been the original or the lyrics are a chant. I’ve heard it on Soulfly’s self titled and fell I love then. Umbabarumba. Maybe it is a chant, I don’t know. The steady thumping keeps the pace at a beautiful tempo. Definitely worth checking out his discography.

Definitely Maybe by Oasis
Jun 10 2025

Great duo. Songwriting is amazing and the music is wonderfully put together. Oozes pop and sex appeal. Great rock and roll. Now that I’m older I can appreciate it more.

Nowhere by Ride
Jun 12 2025

Great fucking moving on this one. Beatles, Oasis, Jesus and Mary chain. Bass lines for days and great distortion backed riffs. Solid drums. Straight from the 90’s

Smile by Brian Wilson
Jun 13 2025

The great. Showed up just a few days after his death. So poppy, risk taking dreamscape sounds. Pure genius.

xx by The xx
Jun 22 2025

Decent. A little too slow for me. Poppy, just not something I’m gonna promote.

Bad Company by Bad Company
Jun 23 2025

Classic rock. Barbecue on Sunday music.
