Get Behind Me Satan

The White Stripes

3/5

I remember lifting weights to this album back in the day because it was supposed to be good. I didn’t like it back then, but it’s fine. The problem is the hype. Without the hype it’s good.

Come Away With Me

Norah Jones

2/5

Oh gosh. This boy bought this for me before I ran him off for liking me. He ended up being a decent human being, and I was sorry I had run him off. I had just turned 18.

She's So Unusual

Cyndi Lauper

2/5

The Bends

Radiohead

5/5

This one is one of my favorites of all time. I was late to the Radiohead party. I really only started listening to music in 2001, the year I graduated high school and started college. My first Radiohead experience was Kid A/Amnesiac… then I went back and listened to everything. The Bends became my favorite album at the time. Hail to the Thief was the first Radiohead CD I bought new.

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

3/5

I liked this album. I had never listened to it all the way through. I really liked that song “Submission.” In the past, I’ve found the Sex Pistols hard to listen to because the sound is harsh. Makes you want to break everything.

Hail To the Thief

Radiohead

5/5

I may have listened to this album more than any other, except for those related to Pink Floyd and Roger Waters. I bought the CD and played it so much that it started skipping too much from scratching. I would describe it as prescient. The album cover is also really helpful.

Beautiful Freak

Eels

3/5

Now that I think about it, I think I did own this CD at one point. It was recommended to me by a friend. Very good.

Elvis Presley

2/5

It was alright. Seems historically important/astonishing.

What's Going On

Marvin Gaye

1/5

I wasn’t a fan of this album. It basically sounds like… world is bad, woe are we. Emo.

Illmatic

Nas

3/5

When I first started listening to hip hop, this was one of the first I’d not the first album I listened to. I think the first was actually Wu-Tang’s 36 Chambers. For some reason, Nas had never been one of my favorites, when it comes to elite/classic hip hop.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

3/5

Reminds me of a secret crush I had on this guy in high school.

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

4/5

I owned this CD. Love this album. A classic… a go to… on a Sunday mornin… or any other really.

Home Is Where The Music Is

Hugh Masekela

4/5

This was the first time I’d listened this album. I’d never heard of it. I loved it.

Pyromania

Def Leppard

1/5

Pyromania sounds like my kind of thing. While I’ve definitely known about them for a long time, I’ve never really listened to Def Leppard. Reminds me of childhood WWF.

Lazer Guided Melodies

Spiritualized

4/5

I had never heard of Spiritualized before, and I had never heard this album. It felt very Velvet Undergroundy precursor to the Brian Jonestown situation. I loved it.

Born To Run

Bruce Springsteen

2/5

Meh, The Boss is ok.

The Pleasure Principle

Gary Numan

4/5

I loved this album. Great sound. Made me feel good.

The Village Green Preservation Society

The Kinks

4/5

Better than the Beatles.

Darkness on the Edge of Town

Bruce Springsteen

2/5

Meh.

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

3/5

This was a go to back in the day for mashups. Did one with Jeru the Damaja’s Wrath of the Math that turned out really cool.

Germfree Adolescents

X-Ray Spex

2/5

I’ve realized that punk is something I appreciate but tend to avoid. My base level of anxiety is quite high. Punk makes me wanna break stuff, all stuff… but like in a crazy fun way.

Logical Progression

LTJ Bukem

1/5

Cool sounds. Just not for me.

You Want It Darker

Leonard Cohen

2/5

A bit overhyped. Legendary sound tho. A few really good songs.

Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde

The Pharcyde

4/5

My kind of boppin. Smooth. Just right.
