In The Court Of The Crimson King
King Crimson
I don't think I've ever said "What the fuck am I listening to?" more during an album. In both good ways and bad. I Talk To The Wind is beautiful but Moonchild was like 12 minutes of ASMR. A lot of songs were so drawn out and at times felt like just random noises. It's a mixed bag but I think the chaos makes sense given that they were pioneering a new genre with this. It is very cool to listen to from a historical perspective and has some great moments but I won't be listening in my free time.

So much fun to listen to. Just feel good banger after banger. Everything was so smooth. I might like this cover of Summer Breeze more than the original, especially the guitar floating me away at the end.

I haven't listened to blues in so long. What a great reminder of how fire this genre is. I love being able to hear how rock has so clearly been influenced by this. GOT MY MOJO WORKIN!

I’ve listened to this album many times before. Upon first listen it brought a lot of confusion and to be honest I still don’t understand some songs. But I don’t think I need to understand. There’s a beauty in confusion slowly turning into appreciation into love. After ever listen something clicks a little more.
How To Disappear Completely was the song that made me deep dive into Radiohead. I cried the first time I heard it and never felt so moved by a piece of music before. I got way into Radiohead, and then way into music in general. I started learning guitar and listening to more and more music I’d never fully appreciated before. So really this album is the reason I’m even doing this challenge at all.

They know how to rock so they rock. Pretty simple yet awesome stuff. It's kind of hard to listen to the whole album cause the songs sound so similar. But hearing any of these songs on their own is always so hype.

Elton John
I’d never heard this album in full and I love it! That opener had me on the floor! Definitely a new favorite song. There were so many genres and styles in this that it kept the length entertaining. And of course the absolute amazing classic Elton John songs are all on here. Overall incredible!!

Tom Sawyer was one of those songs I had heard in passing and liked but never knew the name of. So glad I found it! The rest of the album is just as awesome! Very cool to listen of headphones with.

Beautiful music and I love the storytelling. Wasn’t too interested by it though.
