Metallica by Metallica
Apr 15 2025

Definitely an album I had heard before and a solid one. It’s been a very long time since I have heard this one in full. The guitar solos took a little while to get used to. I liked reading the making of the album information. It was cool have that insight before this listen to get a better sense for the mix of the classic Metallica songs with the newer more evolved sounds. Song stand outs for me would be Nothing Else Matters and The Unforgiven.

21 by Adele
Apr 16 2025

I wasn’t sure if I had heard this whole album or if I had only heard the radio singles. I have a friend who is a big Adele fan and would always play her in his car during road trips. So I have heard this whole album before but I never really sat down and listened to the album in full. Definitely a solid album. Stand outs for me were He Won’t Go and Lovesong

Hail To the Thief by Radiohead
Apr 17 2025

I have heard this one before but it has been a while since I listened to it in full. It is a solid album a total classic. Stand outs for me are Sail To The Moon, Where I End and You Begin and There, There.

Apr 18 2025

I have to say that when I looked up the track list and saw six songs, I thought it was going to be a quick and easy listen. Wow there are some long songs on this thing! It’s not something I would normally seek out but I did enjoy it. It sounds like it could have been very influential to a lot of future artists. It has a great groove to it and an interesting sound. Album stand outs for me would be Where Was You At and the title track The World is a Ghetto.

Hot Rats by Frank Zappa
Apr 19 2025

Another full album that is only six songs. Six long songs. The first couple songs were good. After a while it felt like I was just listening to endless guitar solos. Then a duck going crazy. Overall a pretty interesting album. Not sure if I would listen to it again. Willie the Pimp was probably my favorite song from the album.

Play by Moby
Apr 20 2025

I don’t think that I have listened to this full album before. I have heard the singles. It was a nice listen. Seems like a good album to put on as background noise. Overall I liked it but not a favorite.

Apr 21 2025

Not one that I have heard anything about previously. It does seem like it could have ended up being an influential album for some future bands. This one wasn’t a favorite of mine, mostly wasn’t into the singers voice. It did sound like it had potential otherwise.

Live At Leeds by The Who
Apr 22 2025

The Who are actually my Dad’s favorite band. They are pretty good. I didn’t realize that when they play live they tend to play heavier. I really enjoyed it! Album stand outs for me were Young Man Blues and Shakin’ All Over.

Coles Corner by Richard Hawley
Apr 23 2025

I had never heard this one before. I really enjoyed it. It has a very smooth easy listening feel to it. It has a bit of an older feel to it for being released in 2005. Album stand outs for me were Just Like the Rain, Born Under A Bad Sign and Tonight.

2112 by Rush
Apr 25 2025

Very good album. I hadn’t heard this one before. That first super long song really had me all over the place, headbanging then bummed that the headbanging part was over then happy that it came back. Over all it’s a pretty album

Brothers In Arms by Dire Straits
Apr 26 2025

A decent album. Kind of sad that it’s a bit homophobic.

The Next Day by David Bowie
Apr 27 2025

A very good album. Bowie is such a great song writer but I’m not a big fan of his voice.

OK by Talvin Singh
Apr 28 2025
Superunknown by Soundgarden
Apr 30 2025

Really great album!

Djam Leelii by Baaba Maal
May 01 2025

Not something that I would seek out to listen to but I enjoy the vibe of the album.

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida by Iron Butterfly
May 02 2025

Decent album. Seems to be somewhat regular rock. The title track of course is the stand out!

Bayou Country by Creedence Clearwater Revival
May 04 2025

Cool album. Has a nice sixties vibe to it.

Mermaid Avenue by Billy Bragg
May 05 2025

Very nice album. I really enjoy Birds and Ships a lot!

Hot Buttered Soul by Isaac Hayes
May 06 2025

Good album. Can definitely see how it would be very influential.

...Baby One More Time by Britney Spears
May 07 2025

Very corny. It was interesting to hear some of the other songs on the album other than the singles.

The Who Sell Out by The Who
May 08 2025

I love the concept for this album! It has a great Beatles like sound to it. Solid album.

Different Class by Pulp
May 10 2025

A classic! A really great album worthy of my first 5 of the list.

Sticky Fingers by The Rolling Stones
May 11 2025

Pretty solid album.

Blur by Blur
May 13 2025

Kind of disappointed by this album when I bought it back when it came out. Still disappointed kind of disappointed.

Lady In Satin by Billie Holiday
May 14 2025

I enjoyed this more than I expected to for an album from such a long time ago. It’s actually pretty good and you can see how influential it was for many artists.

May 15 2025

It was fun to hear the Jackass theme song but this mostly sounded like the worst song on a Red Hot Chili Peppers album.

Green by R.E.M.
May 16 2025

Great album! Very happy that I got this one today. You can really hear some of the sounds that inspired Nirvana.

Boston by Boston
May 19 2025

Really great classic rock 🤘

Illinois by Sufjan Stevens
May 20 2025

An amazing album! One that I loved when I first heard it in the 00s and still love now!

Want Two by Rufus Wainwright
May 23 2025

It was good. Almost sounded like early Radiohead Thom Yorke.

May 25 2025

I haven’t heard this one since I was a kid. I appreciate it more now. It’s a really great one!

Fever Ray by Fever Ray
May 26 2025

It was a pleasant surprise to get a Fever Ray album on this list. I had listened to some of their more recent albums and enjoyed them but hadn’t heard this one before. It’s really good!

Dig Me Out by Sleater-Kinney
May 29 2025

I have been told many times that I should check this one out. I’m glad it showed up in the list so that I could finally remember to do it. Great album!

Now I Got Worry by The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion
