Bert Jansch
2/5
Folk singer not my bag
Roxy Music
2/5
1972 effort didn’t stack up with all the greats in IMO of the decade

The Modern Lovers
5/5
I had to listen to it twice through to find its magnificent, Jonathan Richman sounds like a character. VU>modern Lovers > sex pistols influence …Loved it listened to a few other JR with ML albums

2/5
Aerosmith collab, it’s tricky we’re hughlights. seemed not much substance in lyrics, maybe a rushed effort studio execs
The Doors
4/5
Break on thru, light my fire, back door man, this is the end …Rock n Roll at its finest. Not my cup of tea anymore but a nostalgic listen no doubt!

2/5
with eric clapton….hmmm, first time listening and blues is just not my cup of tea. Pretty one note, listened to it twice through bc I couldnt find my phone
Giant Sand
1/5
Did not relate to the advertised eccentric lyrics. i did hear the sparse quality that tucson dessert mimics. Won’t remember tmrw, sorry.

3/5
Two classics - Pfunk - Doobie Funk
Penguin Cafe Orchestra
3/5
Jerry Lee Lewis
2/5
Elvis left for RCA and Old Sun records in memphis picked up JLL. Until he married his 13 yr old cousin, he switched genres to country later on but supposedly he lived in the wilderness for a few yrs and then recorded this album. Full of energy and his hits …1965 22 min album or live show, ha
The Notorious B.I.G.
2/5
Hadn’t listened to it ever, P diddy on the tracks made me cringe, gangsta lyrics…Juicy was the only banger on effort
Ananda Shankar
2/5
Baller Sitar musician plays others covers.
MC Solaar
3/5
French is so sexy in rap songs, whole album was lyrical and flowed so well!
Talvin Singh
2/5
Indian music heavy on sitar meets EDM …Mercury award winner from Britain for this effort. Enjoyable listen
Buffalo Springfield
2/5
Mr Soul is classical rock and roll but rest of effort was more Folk rock which i found one note . Short lived band that helped develop the upcoming decades sound
Madonna
1/5
It was so forced although I wasn’t in the gay clubs then so It might of been banging but I couldn’t help but cringe for her shot at staying relevant…
R.E.M.
2/5
The Chemical Brothers
2/5
late 90’s electronic. Nice listen not my bag.
The Afghan Whigs
2/5
90’s rock n roll just sounds meh to me thus this album fall short to my ears
The Pretty Things
2/5
British Classic Rock …had some members of the Stones….considered harder than main stream. Influenced Pete Townsend. Mid to late 60’s …really nothing popped for me
Van Morrison
3/5
wonderful album, and it stoned me to open it up, magnificent recording!
Ms. Dynamite
3/5
New to my ears, never heard of her …across the pond and never had another album …loved it, super energetic effort!
David Bowie
2/5
Last track held my attention, hero’s was the only FM hit …1977 wonder if the studios were pressing him to make album after album.
The Velvet Underground
3/5
Album before Loaded, loved it, you could tell they were ahead of their time. Each ear had different vocals from Lou and one other male spitting verse …songs were folky compared to the electric hit laden Loaded. It made me go back and listen to their first album and then 72’s effort. Terrific addition for my ears!
Fun Lovin' Criminals
1/5
The 90’s were so weird.. song about John Gotti. Repeated non sense in each song.
Bob Marley & The Wailers
4/5
Natty dread talking blues no woman no cry am a do …hit after hit!
