New Order
Enjoyed this. I tended to like the rock aspects rather than the synth, which, sometimes veers into the corny. Liked the vibe. Sunrise is awesome. Vocals sometimes seem a little uneven, which could take me out of the song, but enjoyed the passionate delivery. Will listen to this again. Has potential to be something that grows on me.

Brilliant production and some really interesting songs. I did get tired of the breathless, overly affected vocals. Really good in small doses but overall not for me. I do see why people like her. Wish her the absolute best.

I bought this back in the day...but it never became a favorite. Couple bangers but didn't resonate, and I left it on the shelf. Today it really does resonate. This is incredible. Fantastic! This gets back in the rotation! What was I thinking back then?

Tragic Songs of Life
The Louvin Brothers
I was going to rate this album two stars, but then I re-listened to In The Pines. That song is so good it lifts this album to three stars. I understand that this is an historically significant duo and album, however... it's all just so dated in perspective, sound, and lyrics. Not for me.

Not typically my jam, but this is full-on good-natured West Texas sound. I know this recording is decades old... but it feels like a breath of fresh air compared to modern Country/Western. This has humor and humility while still focusing on having a good time. This is a low-key gem I didn't expect.
