Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Mar 30 2025

The first song and a few of the early songs were good, but I immediately got bored with them. The album started sounding like a bunch of generic 80s music I am tired of hearing. It could be a me-thing because I am so fatigued with 80s music.

Talking Timbuktu by Ali Farka Touré
Mar 31 2025

I liked it more than the previous album. It was something I had never listened to before or that much of. It was a nice change. I liked how the music focused more on the instruments than the singing. 4/5

Debut by Björk
Apr 01 2025

I enjoyed this album. I have heard of Björk before, but I have never really listened to her music until now. I liked the funk, alternative, and electronic sound. Judging by the title, I believe this was her first album. What a strong start!

1999 by Prince
Apr 02 2025

I had already listened to this album, but I didn't mind listening to it again to ensure I liked it. Surprisingly enough, I loved it. Prince is one of the few 1980s musicians that actually stands out and isn’t overrated. I never really knew how long the songs were, but I still enjoyed them. I enjoyed this 1980s album more than the last one.

Sign 'O' The Times by Prince
Apr 03 2025

I find it funny that this was my next album because the album I listened to prior was 1999. However, I am not complaining. This is another great Prince album. I still liked 1999 more, but I still enjoyed this one.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Apr 04 2025

I don't listen to the blues very often, but that didn't stop me from enjoying this album. I'll give it a four because it is good music, even if the blues isn't the most popular genre. When I played the latter half, I actually had a bad day It made me feel a little better.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Apr 05 2025

Alright. I'm noticing this app recommends artists from the same genre, and I kind of get bored when that happens. Still, I think Nina Simone is a good singer.

Play by Moby
Apr 06 2025

It's good and experimental, but I started feeling like I was listening to a movie soundtrack instead of a normal album. Speaking of movies, the album is the length of one. I think it would have been better if it had been shorter.

Entertainment by Gang Of Four
Apr 07 2025

This was my first recommended rock album. I was listening to it while working out. It made me wish I had known about the Gang of Four before. My father, who was nine when this album came out, enjoyed it, too.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Apr 08 2025

I loved this album. I have never heard of this band before, but I am glad I listened to it now. I get bored with 1980s music, so this was a nice change. Violent Femmes is very good.

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Apr 09 2025

I really liked this album. I have heard of this band before, but I never listened to them until now. I enjoyed all the songs and rock.

Feast of Wire by Calexico
Apr 10 2025

I loved the mix of Spanish music and rock. It was something different to hear and enjoyable. I never heard of anything like it.

Apocalypse Dudes by Turbonegro
Apr 11 2025

I loved this album and the hard rock. I had never heard of this band until now, and the band isn't that old, either. I wish I listened to this earlier.

Songs For Swingin' Lovers! by Frank Sinatra
Apr 12 2025

I have already listened to a lot of Frank Sinatra, including this album. However, that doesn't stop Sinatra from being the jazz goat.

A Little Deeper by Ms. Dynamite
Apr 13 2025

Great album. Ms. Dynamite is what I call the musician’s musician. Epic R&B

Apr 17 2025

It's pretty good, but I’ve heard better Mayfield albums. It is not bad, though. I mostly listen to music while working out. I wish I could give this three and a half stars, but the ratings don’t let me.

High Violet by The National
Apr 18 2025

Wow. I couldn't get into this band. It wasn't for me. The band has talent, but I am not a fan of the music genre they are doing. This is the type of music my dad listens to, but not in a good way.

Reggatta De Blanc by The Police
Apr 19 2025

It's pretty good. I liked it better than the last recommended album. I have listened to this album and The Police before. I feel their hit songs are better than the lesser-known songs on this album.

Let Love Rule by Lenny Kravitz
Apr 20 2025

Pretty good music. Love the funk, and it sounds different.

Apr 21 2025

Well, I guess it is my turn to say that an album was probably big for its time, but not much now. It is kind of generic and not that great. I think I only really liked one song.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
Apr 22 2025

I have already listened to this album, but it is still good. The Rolling Stones are just a good band in general.

Chore of Enchantment by Giant Sand
May 07 2025

I liked a few of the songs at the beginning, but they got boring in the middle and end. I felt I was listening to the same thing over and over again.

Shaft by Isaac Hayes
May 08 2025

First, the album is good. I like soul music, and Isaac Hayes is very influential. However, this is a movie soundtrack. It is not bad, but it is not a regular soul album. I tried to exercise while listening to the songs, but it didn't do anything for me. This is better to listen to at leisure. 3/5.

Blonde On Blonde by Bob Dylan
May 09 2025

Bob Dylan is a talented musician. The album is good, but I feel the songs are similar. There is a lot of harmonica, too. I would have probably liked this more if I had been around when it came out.

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
May 10 2025

Some songs were better than others. This album was definitely experimental. I will listen to some of the songs I like again sometime.

Fulfillingness' First Finale by Stevie Wonder
May 11 2025

I’m giving this album a four because I do think it is a well-created album. I’ve only listened to a few Stevie Wonder songs before this album. It is a good album, but I am not crazy about it.

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye
May 12 2025

I have listened to this album. I think I like it more than I did prior. I always liked Marvin Gaye’s songs. I would own this on vinyl.

Dire Straits by Dire Straits
May 19 2025

Alright, but kind of boring for me. This seems kind of dated. I liked some songs, though.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
May 25 2025

I ended up liking this more than I thought. It was a little soft, but I still enjoyed it. Some probably dislike it a little since it can get a little samey. 4/5

Natty Dread by Bob Marley & The Wailers
May 27 2025

I listened to this album, but it doesn't stop it from being good.

Achtung Baby by U2
May 28 2025

I listened to this song sporadically, but I enjoyed most of the songs.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
May 29 2025

I liked it more than I thought I would. I liked the modern jazz twist.

May 30 2025

I am not a fan of country music, and this song sounds very generic, but it isn't unlistenable.

Document by R.E.M.
May 31 2025

It's pretty good rock music, but I am not too crazy about it.

Jun 01 2025

I'm a bit biased because I like hip-hop. Pretty decent rap albulm.

Jun 02 2025

It is listenable and alright, but I feel like I'm hearing the same thing over and over again. This was a little before my time.

Abbey Road by Beatles
Jun 03 2025

I have already listened to this album. It is good, but I am kind of bored of it, solely because I have listened to this album and the Beatles a lot already.

Cupid & Psyche 85 by Scritti Politti
Jun 08 2025

This is the type of music played in a video game set in the 80s. Not in a good way, though. Only when the game studio can't afford to get the good 1980s music. The only good thing I can say is that it listenable, but it is extremely generic

Rum Sodomy & The Lash by The Pogues
Jun 18 2025

This might be my most controversial five-star rating because I enjoy the sea shanty/folk genre. It is everything I want out of it. However, I understand if people rate it lower because it is not their thing.

Rhythm Nation 1814 by Janet Jackson
Jun 20 2025

I did not like this one. First, I think Janet has a good voice, and the beats are good. However, the first problem is with the beats because they all sound alike. Also, the interludes make me dislike the album even more. They are very preachy and make Janet seem out of touch, especially as a celebrity who was pretty much born into the industry. I still think her brother Michael is a better musician.

The Low End Theory by A Tribe Called Quest
Jun 21 2025

Decent. I don't know what kind of sub-genre of hip-hop this is, but it is not my favorite. I need something harder.

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Jun 22 2025

It's kind of generic 70s rock music, something my white uncle would have listened to back in the day.

Fear Of Music by Talking Heads
Jun 23 2025

Pretty good, but not my favorite

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Jun 25 2025

Better than I expected, but I did not care for it.

Rattus Norvegicus by The Stranglers
Jul 09 2025

Pretty good rock album. I would have listened to this when it came out.

Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & The Holding Company
Jul 10 2025

Pretty good rock music. Songs were a little long, though.

Manassas by Stephen Stills
Jul 11 2025

I liked this album, but did not care for the songs that sounded too country. I am also getting tired of getting recommended songs from the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Master Of Puppets by Metallica
Jul 12 2025

This is my first time listening to a full Metallica album. I absolutely loved it.

Elvis Presley by Elvis Presley
Jul 13 2025

I don't really like Elvis, but I will admit this album is not bad. It isn’t great either, though. It is average. This would have been a bigger deal if I had been alive when it came out.

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Jul 14 2025

This album was a wonderful surprise. I loved all the songs, and I wish I were around when it came out.

Imagine by John Lennon
Jul 27 2025

It is not my favorite album, but it is listenable. I would listen to it when trying to relax.

Jul 28 2025

I liked most of the songs. I also like this genre of music and have become a recent fan of this band. However, I feel other people who are not fans of the music genre would rate this less than I.

Jul 29 2025

This is going to be the first time I don’t complete an album because I’ve heard enough. I think Lauryn is a good singer. She also has good beats. However, they all are starting to sound so samey.

Fifth Dimension by The Byrds
Jul 30 2025

This is the second time I have been recommended this band. It’s fine, but I do t care for it

Scott 2 by Scott Walker
Jul 31 2025

I like the energy put into the classical style of musics. I really loved it.

Will The Circle Be Unbroken by Nitty Gritty Dirt Band
Aug 01 2025

Giving this album 3 stars while on vacation in Virginia. This is good driving music, but it is not my favorite type.

2112 by Rush
Aug 02 2025

Rock music that may have been popular at time, but it is a little generic. Also, the first song being 20 minutes is ridiculous.

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Aug 03 2025

All of the songs are bangers. Biggie was ahead of his time. Rest in Piece, Biggie.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Aug 04 2025

Pretty good album. I like more of the first few albums compared to the last ones.

Band On The Run by Paul McCartney and Wings
Aug 05 2025

Pretty good rock album. I’m just not crazy over it. The Beatles had good music post-Beatles, but I think their band era will always be their peak.

The Wildest! by Louis Prima
Aug 19 2025

Prey good jazz swing music. I really do not have a problem with any of the songs. I just don’t think it is the best in the world.

Little Earthquakes by Tori Amos
Aug 20 2025

Tor Amos has a nice voice and the sound is good, but I do feel like I am listening to the same song over and over again.

Tom Tom Club by Tom Tom Club
Aug 21 2025

The music reminds me of that Club Penguin DJ mini game where I thought I was a music genius solely because I pressed on all of the DJ equipment. Seriously, I get this being decent when it comes out, but it isn’t my thing.

Casanova by The Divine Comedy
Aug 22 2025

I don’t really think it is as bad as some of the reviews are saying it is. I liked this a little more when comparing it to the last album I heard. The reason being it was a little more different, but I don’t think it is the greatest thing I have ever heard.

All Things Must Pass by George Harrison
Aug 23 2025

If I were alive then, I would have smoked a bowl to this album. It is kind of long, and some of the songs sounded sandy. However, I still liked the music.

Murder Ballads by Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Aug 24 2025

I’m giving this album a 4 to a little higher 3. You need to have a particular taste for this album, but I still enjoyed it. Some songs were a little long, though. Most of the songs reminded me of the music from Peaky Blinders.

Smash by The Offspring
Sep 24 2025

It was alright and listenable. Decent rock if nothing else was playing. I think I would have enjoyed it more when it came out.

Astral Weeks by Van Morrison
Sep 25 2025

It was fine. I have heard rumors that this creator is a boomer who believes the late 60s and 70s were when music was at its peak. This album is not that amazing, though.

Dare! by The Human League
Sep 26 2025

Generic 80s pop that was probably big back in the day, but I do not care for it now.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel
Sep 27 2025

It was alright. At least Simon and Garfunkel sound different than the rest of the albums on here. It also was not too long either. I think it is a decent albulm.

Sep 28 2025

Pretty good rock music. I think I would like it more if I listened to it a second time.

american dream by LCD Soundsystem
Sep 29 2025

Honestly, I liked this album more than I thought I would. However, I am still giving it a 2. The songs are too long and I don’t think any of them are that special, even if they don’t sound too bad.

Metallica by Metallica
Sep 30 2025

Pretty good. I think Metallica might be my first rock band I am getting into. Some of the songs sounded a little samey, though.

Shadowland by k.d. lang
Oct 02 2025

I might be biased because I don’t like country music, but I did not like this album. It was very boring to listen to. I felt like I was about to fall asleep, not in a good way. I felt like I had been too nice with my critiques. So, I am going to make this my first one-star album.

The Downward Spiral by Nine Inch Nails
Oct 03 2025

Good. Would probably rate it higher if I gave it another listen

Machine Head by Deep Purple
Oct 04 2025

Bro, it was alright. I feel like this would have been more impactful if I was alive when it came out.

Gasoline Alley by Rod Stewart
Oct 16 2025

This was fine. I just think some 70s rock is not for me.

Quiet Life by Japan
Oct 28 2025

I couldn’t really getting into this. It was a little too soft for me. I would have probably liked it if I was born earlier.

Soul Mining by The The
Oct 29 2025

I would have enjoyed this when it came out in the 80s, but I feel like this was the only time to be really impressed by it. It is kind of boring

Penance Soiree by The Icarus Line
Oct 30 2025

Forgettable, boring, and generic. Next album, please

Colour By Numbers by Culture Club
Oct 31 2025

Average. Not that bad. I would gladly listen to it if there was nothing else to listen to.

My Generation by The Who
Nov 01 2025

Easy to listen to, but a little long. Not bad, though. I just prefer harder rock.

Nov 02 2025

Decent. It was better at the start compared to the end. It was soul-like, so I did like it for that reason. Some sounded like elevator music, but not bad elevator music.

Fear and Whiskey by Mekons
Jan 12 2026

Better than the last album to heard. Kind of dated, but still decent, would play if nothing else was on.

Synchronicity by The Police
Jan 13 2026

It has been a while since I gave an album a 5. This is what I call a fantastic album.

LP1 by FKA twigs
Jan 14 2026

White girl music that sounds a little same, but I did not think it was that bad

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Jan 15 2026

Sounds a little sandy, but I do like it better than the last album.

Blackstar by David Bowie
Jan 17 2026

Weird, but in a good way. A great departing album from David Bowie. RIP

Rid Of Me by PJ Harvey
Jan 18 2026

She reminds me of a 90s Janis Joplin. Good music, but some of the songs sound the same.
