Moby

2/5

Not my cup of tea but I listened all the way. “Natural Blues” was an ok song. Still kinda nostalgic hearing some of these tracks that I heard as a young kid.

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

It’s Hendrix. It’s a great album. That is all.

Doolittle

Pixies

5/5

Great album. I was born in ‘88 and can tell that this was heavily influential for a lot of the 90s grunge and rock music. I can also tell that this was way ahead of its time.

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

5/5

It ain’t called one of the best live albums ever made for nothing. It was also my top played album on Spotify last year for a reason. Perfection!! Instant 5!!

The Cars

4/5

Fine album. Not something I’d turn on real often but I like it.

Blackstar

David Bowie

1/5

I did not enjoy it. Lazarus was an OK song. My dad and I had a conversation awhile back and told each other that there’s no such thing as BAD music because someone likes it. Someone must like this but it’s definitely not for me.

Born To Run

Bruce Springsteen

2/5

It was ok. Not my thing. Had a feel of nostalgia but that’s really all that saved it for me.

The Number Of The Beast

Iron Maiden

4/5

Old school metal. No complaints.

Basket of Light

Pentangle

4/5

Different but way better than I figured it would be. I enjoyed it.

Since I Left You

The Avalanches

1/5

I did not enjoy it. I don’t like electronics music at all.

Sea Change

Beck

2/5

Didn’t really care for it. He played instruments and sang so it’s better than the electronica the day before.

The Stranger

Billy Joel

4/5

Great album. I always enjoy this one.

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady

Charles Mingus

3/5

Wasn’t bad. Jazz is new to me. Excited to get more. Probably worth a higher rating then I’m gonna give it.

Djam Leelii

Baaba Maal

1/5

Couldn’t do it

James Brown Live At The Apollo

James Brown

5/5

Classic album

All Hope Is Gone

Slipknot

4/5

Good album

The Next Day

David Bowie

1/5

I don’t like Bowie nor understand why people like him so much. To each their own tho

Foo Fighters

4/5

Good album. I’ve always liked the Foo Fighters.

Guitar Town

Steve Earle

5/5

I’ve heard prolly 3 songs off this album before today. I’m glad I heard the rest. Great album.

Rattus Norvegicus

The Stranglers

4/5

Good album. Sounds like it was very inspirational to early punk music to me.

Like Water For Chocolate

Common

4/5

Stankonia

OutKast

5/5

Classic. Not the first time I’ve heard it by a long shot. It IS the first time I’ve listened to it in its entirety. Abstract in a way only OutKast could pull off. 5 stars as soon as I seen what album it was in the morning.

Traffic

4/5

Decent album. I have a couple of their songs already liked on Spotify, but not from this album. I expected a little more because of them songs. I’d give a 3.5 if I could so I’ll err high.

Copper Blue

Sugar

4/5

Good album. Early 90s alt rock. Sounded like everything the Foo Fighters wanted to be.

Black Sabbath

5/5

It’s Black Sabbath. The beginning of Heavy Metal starts here!

The Visitors

ABBA

2/5

Not my thing but I’m sure they were a big deal in their time. I can respect that.

Garbage

2/5

Not for me

Talvin Singh

3/5

Not my favorite but better than I thought it would be. The Indian aspect of it made it sound different than I was expecting. I can’t say that enjoyed it tho. It would make good background music.

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

3/5

Nothing special.

The Wildest!

Louis Prima

5/5

Great album. Swing ain’t something I normally listen to but enjoyed that one very much. I knew 2 songs of his, only 1 on this album, before I heard it.

Crossing the Red Sea With the Adverts

The Adverts

4/5

Sounds like most early punk music but it was better composed in my opinion. Not usually a punk fan but I enjoyed this one.

To Pimp A Butterfly

Kendrick Lamar

3/5

Never really been a Kendrick fan but this was better than I thought it would be. I don’t really get the hype about how great he is tho.

Juju

Siouxsie And The Banshees

2/5

Nothing special

La Revancha Del Tango

Gotan Project

Weather channel music. Not bad for background noise but electronica does nothing for me.

I can’t make my mind up if I liked it or not

Willie does the hits. Great album!

Tea for the Tillerman

Solid country gold. No one hates Dolly and her music is great too. Great album from The Queen of Tennessee and an all around amazing person.

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

5/5

Solid album. CCR is awesome so I expected no less.

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Animal Collective

1/5

Didn’t do anything for me and I don’t understand why would have such a big impact.

War

3/5

Not a big U2 fan but it was a little better than I figured it would be

Don’t really know what kind of music to call it but I enjoyed it

A Grand Don't Come For Free

The Streets

4/5

I didn’t care for the music as much as I enjoyed the fast that it was a story. I didn’t realize until the last song it was a story until I realized that he keeps talking about this damn TV.

Kanye West

4/5

Solid hip hop album.

Fulfillingness' First Finale
