Dusty In Memphis
Dusty SpringfieldNot my thing, but it wasn't unlistenable. It was worth it just to listen to "Son of a Preacher Man" and her rendition of "You've Got a Friend".

It's ok. I'm not a big White Stripes/Jack White fan. It was catchy.
It's Aerosmith. I didn't realize some of those songs had such interesting intros to them, as I'd only heard them on the radio.
I'm sure that the Avant-garde jazz folks love this album. I can tell the musicians are talented, but.... It sounds like a bunch of folks on stage just noodling away with their instruments. I liked the couple of bits of flamenco guitar in there, but that was an accent on one piece, not even enough to say it made up a song. For me, 1/5. Please, no more jazz.
Why is this album on the list? There's isn't a single notable song on the entire album. Nothing that screamed at me "listen to me again". The only song on the album I'd heard before was "Up on Cripple Creek", and that song really isn't that good. It's just '60's roots rock nothingness. Rating: 1/5. Hard pass.
I'm not impressed. I get that he is a talented musician, but I don't get the point. I'm not turned on by any of it. It sounds like every other '60's era folk/pop. Nothing notable. My rating: 1/5
This is more like it! I hear the beginnings of nine inch nails in here, early club techno. Lots of good stuff here. I need to listen to it more, but this is one I can actually listen to again. My rating: 4/5, based on one listen. I also want to check out other albums in their catalog.
Eye opening! Portishead has a new fan. While I can't point to a single track that grabbed me, I was pulled on through the whole thing. I'll be checking out the rest of their catalog.
It's AC/DC, and one of their earlier albums. Raucous, loud, awesome.
It was... Interesting. Tom Waits has an interesting soulful wail to his voice. It's not something I would normally listen to, but I'm more likely to check out his other work now.
Ok, good album, but I probably won't listen to it again. It was weird to hear rod Stewart hotel like a wolf in the middle of a song.
It was ok. I'm not a rap guy, but it's LL Cool J, and his stuff is mostly reachable. a couple of hits I remembered from the '90's, the cereal song was funny.
Interesting. I thought Bob Dylan only sounded like he does in the opening track, and never have it a second thought. He's good. I can see why so many people like him so much. Solid. My rating: 4/5, looking forward to other entries of his on the list.
I wouldn't say it's banger after banger, but it's a good album. You can definitely see where a lot of other acts took inspiration from CCR and John Fogerty to build their own sound. Got to hear a few of the CCR standbys as well as some other songs that were good. My Rating: 3/5
