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.

Adele
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

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.

The World is a Ghetto
War
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.

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.

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.

Crooked Rain Crooked Rain
Pavement
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
The Who
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.

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.

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
