Superfly
Curtis Mayfield
I'm no expert, but my impression is this genre--funk in general and blaxploitation specifically--is filled with forgettable music. Superfly stands out as a solid album top to bottom, plus major hits in Pusherman and Superfly. Mayfield was ahead of his time.

Great writing, but the music--especially Dylan's voice--is not for me.

I like that they have a distinct sound but it's not for me. Besides Psycho Killer. That song is a 10.

Hot Rats
Frank Zappa
I've tried to get into Zappa before, but struggled. Listening to this album through, I get it now. I can see how this band has influenced many bands that I love 40-50 years later.

Hot Fuss
The Killers
I don't understand why The Killers are so big, but this album almost convinces me. Thoroughly enjoyable, and at least three of the songs will sometimes pop into my head out of nowhere--they're a part of my personal soundtrack now. I have to give it 5 stars.

King's of course a legend for his playing, but his raw singing makes these often straightforward blues songs timeless.

really like the first 4 songs. And they're pretty long, so I can give it a 3. Augmn and Peking O are hard to listen to.

War Pigs is the best anti-war song, and one of the seminal songs in the genre from one of the band's earliest albums. Quintessential.
