Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

All Ratings

The Wildest!

Louis Prima

5/5

“I’ll Be Glad When You’re Dead, You Rascal You.” - The most uptempo song about wishing death on someone…that I know of. “A Banana Split for My Baby” - A song possibly about a feeding fetish. Could be more sinister if said baby is lactose intolerant. That said, I now want a banana split. “Five Months,Two Weeks, Two Days” A whole lotta weird mouth noises. A Misophoniac’s version of hell. Why?!?!

Maggot Brain

Funkadelic

Genius

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5

Wasnt expecting moog honking on a S&G record. Two of my favorites of theirs on this though.

Opus Dei

Parklife

Blur

5/5

One of the best records of the 1990’s. A slice of British life, like a modern Kinks.

You've Come a Long Way Baby

Fatboy Slim

5/5

Blur

5/5

People dismissed Blur in the 90s as little more than a boy band. Hopefully that opinion is being reevaluated now that there’s distance on it. They crafted smart, interesting art that it just so happens had massive sing along choruses. This record is a departure from their Kinks-like British slice of life schematics,but ultimately yielded the hit that broke them in the US. Skip Song 2 if you must, but give the rest of the record a listen.

Hearts And Bones

Paul Simon

Hugh Masekela

5/5

Hail To the Thief

Radiohead

5/5

I love Radiohead but hadn’t spent a lot of time with this record in particular. Listening to it with a critical ear at this point in the world political climate, I’m saddened (beyond the usual post-Radiohead malaise) that the subject matter of this album is still so very relevant.

Sheer Heart Attack

Queen

5/5

Pacific Ocean Blue

Dennis Wilson

5/5

The Band

5/5

Happy Trails

Quicksilver Messenger Service

5/5

The many meditations on “who do you love?” were probably the favorites of very high journalism students, but kind of test the patience of most sober people. Overall though, it’s a vibe of a record with a some really cool tracks.

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

5/5

Genius. Tragic, beautiful genius.

Sunday At The Village Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio
