In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

5/5

Okay, you guys did this on purpose, somehow, didn't you? My last album was The Message (extended)-Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five, and I argued that is not an album and therefore couldn't recieve a 5 because it only has 5 songs and is 35 minutes long which is barely enough to be an album, and this comes up with 2 fucking songs at 38 minutes, and I was considering giving it a 5, but my former decision gives me pause.

Songs From The Big Chair

Tears For Fears

3/5

Of course I love Shout and Everybody Wants To Rule The World from radio play and various covers. The songs Broken and Head Over Heels caught my attention as well. I'd probably give the album a 3/5. Some standout songs and a few that I don't really love

Get Behind Me Satan

The White Stripes

4/5

Loved this album when I was younger, it's still great, but I have to give it a 4 because of "Instinct Blues". That song really rubbed me the wrong way, though I love parts of it. The noodley part at the beginning is fine, it's that solo(?) in the middle that I really didn't like, and I can't imagine what possessed them to put that on the album. Otherwise great album, Little Ghost is a longtime favorite of mine, and over the runtime of the album I was just reminded of my teenage years several times.

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

4/5

The first half of the album is kind of standard 70's rock, it didn't really blow my skirt up, but the last 5 or so songs are really good and brought me up to a 4/5

Highway to Hell

AC/DC

4/5

I remember being a kid in the early 2000s downloading all the music Limewire and Kazaa could provide me. AC/DC was one of my favorite bands, and I remember listening to a bunch of these songs. So this has given me a lot of nostalgia. All of these songs stick to the successful AC/DC formula, which is great, but I can't give it more than a 4 for that reason. Lots of great songs, but if you're looking for variety, well, you're probably not listening to full AC/DC albums.

Vol. 4

Black Sabbath

5/5

Like all of Sabbath's early albums this one is very fun and unique. Changes is a massive change of pace, while all the rest have this Lo-fi early-metal mystique that I find very appealing, perhaps do the fact that my father was a Black Sabbath superfan from their early days. 5/5

Here, My Dear

Marvin Gaye

4/5

Wasn't thrilled on my first listen, but I'm glad I read up on it a little bit and gave it a second listen, it was worth hearing in the right context. I wasn't really expecting a breakup album on my first listen, so with that in mind this is a great album.

The Message

Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five

4/5

It's all great and funky but not really an album in my opinion. Love it, but I can't really give it a 5. It's 5 songs, sure it's 35 minutes, but that is the barest of minimums for an album. Even spotify doesn't seem to think it's an album.

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

5/5

Gorillaz

4/5

Love the Gorillaz. This album has a lot of bangers 5/4 is kinda garbage, but everything else is pretty great.

16 Lovers Lane

The Go-Betweens

3/5

It's alright. Nothing amazing

Planet Rock: The Album

Afrika Bambaataa
