Blue by Joni Mitchell
Apr 15 2025

Never understand why joni mitchell is considered a great singer. After listening to this, still don't understand.

Tusk by Fleetwood Mac
Apr 17 2025

Two great songs that I would call iconic, Sara and Tusk. If I didn't know who fleetwood mac was I would have never listened past the first song.

Station To Station by David Bowie

Good album. I have always been a bowie fan

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival

Music in Exile by Songhoy Blues
Apr 21 2025

Bad bad bad. Direct rip off of american blues. When the brit bands of the 60's were influenced by the blues at lest they changed them and made them thier own. Not being in a language I speak made it all that much worse. This sould not be on any list. I give it a .001

Who's Next by The Who
Apr 22 2025

The Who. That's all that needs to be said.

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club

Excellent. This is a great example of the music the influenced many artists of the 60s and 70s

Apr 24 2025

Figure 8 by Elliott Smith
Apr 25 2025

Slow uninspired

Led Zeppelin III by Led Zeppelin
Apr 26 2025

Apr 27 2025

Ok listen. Not a fan of electronic music

May 11 2025
Chelsea Girl by Nico

This Year's Model by Elvis Costello & The Attractions
Jun 11 2025

When i was younger I never saw the appeal of Elvis Costello. I listened to this with an open mind. It is much better then expected. But it is still unclear his appeal.

The Modern Dance by Pere Ubu
Jun 12 2025

I started when I thought it can't get worse this came along.

Surf's Up by The Beach Boys
Jun 13 2025

I worked at a concert venue years ago. I was never star struck so I worked the green room most of the time. The beach boys played there and were not good to work with. This album reconfirmed wy bad taste for them.

Superfly by Curtis Mayfield
Jun 14 2025

Loved the movie. Love the music. SUPERFLY

Jun 18 2025

I do appreciate the talent and work that goes into the music. Im still not into jazz.

Bridge Over Troubled Water by Simon & Garfunkel

Stardust by Willie Nelson
Jun 28 2025

I love this one. I bought it when it first came out. Over the years I've had it on cassette, disc, and have it downloaded. It just gets better with time.

Bitches Brew by Miles Davis
Jun 30 2025

Jazz is not my taste.

1999 by Prince
Jul 01 2025

Picture this: 1982 I'm a senior in high school. Prince 1999 is on the charts. With enthusiasm i listen to it. Blank. So I listened again. Some emotions. So I listened again. Ahhh there it is : this shit sucks. 40plus years later. Still sucks

We're Only In It For The Money by The Mothers Of Invention
Jul 03 2025

Tg sex pistols, the velvet underground, And the mother's of invention. Are all the most overrated untalented waste of time bands out there. This album is nothing but nonsense and noise.

Jul 05 2025

Great music. I have listened to this for years.

Black Metal by Venom
Jul 10 2025

Peggy Suicide by Julian Cope

Jul 28 2025

Jul 29 2025

First song was great then down hill from there.

The Score by Fugees

Abbey Road by Beatles
Aug 02 2025

Best of the Beatles

Too Rye Ay by Dexys Midnight Runners
Aug 07 2025

Not the best from the midnight runners.

Pearl by Janis Joplin

Aug 09 2025

Great classic

Casanova by The Divine Comedy

All song are the same. Norhing new or innovative here

The Hour Of Bewilderbeast by Badly Drawn Boy
Aug 11 2025

I normally put on the daily album when I get home and do my nightly jobs to keep the home going. Today I mowed the lawn. Listening to this made the the 1hour job seem like 3 hours. I would not listen to this again

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes
Aug 12 2025

The white stripes have one good song. Its not on this album.

Loveless by My Bloody Valentine
Aug 13 2025

Punk. Not my favorite.

The Scream by Siouxsie And The Banshees
Aug 22 2025

Blackstar by David Bowie
Aug 27 2025

Well That sucked

Roxy Music by Roxy Music
Aug 29 2025

I listened to the monstrosity of Roxy music. It has bad vocals singing horrible songs,each sounding worse than the last.

Endtroducing..... by DJ Shadow
Aug 30 2025

This is someone playing someone else and calling it thier own

Foo Fighters by Foo Fighters
Aug 31 2025

Never have been a foo fighter fan. My brothers say I should listen to them with an open mind,so I did. The talent is definitely there. And it was much better then I expected.

Country Life by Roxy Music
Sep 01 2025

This is the second album by roxy music that I have had on my list. The first was I was almost unable to listen to. This set my expectations low. I was surprised when I made it through all of this without wanting to shut it off. The vocals were much better then on roxy music. The song on this one have focus and made sence. But the album is still not good.

Timeless by Goldie
Sep 04 2025

I tried. I just don't like tecno. The first song was 22 minutes of the same thing over and over and over and over... I high school music nurd with a keyboard could make this. The other songs were different titles, but the same thing in a faster or slower tempo.

Achtung Baby by U2
Sep 05 2025

Oh ya now I remember, U2 is way over rated. The one song that was good enough to listen to did not make up for the rest on the album.

Transformer by Lou Reed
Sep 06 2025

Out oof all the velvet underground rejects lou reed is the only one with talent. At that this has one iconic song. The rest are tolerable.

Bad. I don't get the attention of this kind of jazz. And before any hip cats who think they are in the know say, " if I have to explain it you won't get it". Everyone living in the real world know you have no clue eather.

Kenya by Machito
Sep 08 2025

Great recording. I felt like I was in a night club from a great Hollywood movie of the 40s.

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground
Sep 10 2025

Velvet underground is an interesting and influential band. But this is still weird by today's standards

Smash by The Offspring
Sep 11 2025

The offspring have some good music. Theis album is good but the songs sound the same

Marquee Moon by Television
Sep 13 2025

Much better then expected. I knew of the history of television and cbgbs. So o. Was expecting more punk sound.

At San Quentin by Johnny Cash
Sep 16 2025

Why to much talking. Im not a fan of live recordings.

The Coral by The Coral
Sep 17 2025

Not for me.

Heartattack And Vine by Tom Waits
Sep 18 2025

This made me rethink my opinion of tom waits. I was never a fan. Now I find myself listening to this more thin once. The deep rough vocals and slow songs were great

Funeral by Arcade Fire
Sep 19 2025

If you want to listen to the talking heads, this is a good album for you.

The Queen Is Dead by The Smiths
Sep 20 2025

This was better then I thought it would be. After listening to other smiths recordings I had low expectations. I was pleasantly surprised.

Immigrés by Youssou N'Dour
Sep 21 2025

Not to bad. This would be great background music for a dinner with friends or a game night

Venus Luxure No. 1 Baby by Girls Against Boys
Sep 22 2025

Wow I was able to skip and fast forward through this in about 30 seconds and didn't miss a thing.

Private Dancer by Tina Turner
Sep 24 2025

There are a few great songs here. Over all good music

OK by Talvin Singh
Sep 25 2025

It sounds like a high school music student laying down his jams on his Casio keyboard at the food court of the local mall

Deja Vu by Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young
Sep 26 2025

All great songs.

I Should Coco by Supergrass
Sep 27 2025

Nothing on here that cought my ear. It was ok but not special.

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.
Sep 28 2025

I turned it on. Skipped through it. Its as bad now as before. Turned it off

Smokers Delight by Nightmares On Wax
Sep 29 2025

Tecno should have one, two maybe three albums on this list just to acknowledge it is a kind of music. But I think I have had at least 10. Way to much bad stuff

Exodus by Bob Marley & The Wailers
Sep 30 2025

Classic

Bug by Dinosaur Jr.
Oct 01 2025

Started great. But as the songs progress they are each not as good as the last

Djam Leelii by Baaba Maal
Oct 03 2025

Again things like this have a nitch market, Hipster coffee shop trust fund winers. The other 99 percent of us listing to stuff like this and say nay. Its not bad just not good and should never be on any album listen to list.

In Utero by Nirvana
Oct 04 2025

All nirvana songs sound the same. Slow start, same beat, load finish. Same is boring

Hms Fable by Shack
Oct 06 2025

Music is great.

Scum by Napalm Death
Oct 18 2025

Bad

Oct 23 2025

Today was not a good day for this type of noise. Live recordings sound bad and the music was cheep at best

Physical Graffiti by Led Zeppelin
Oct 25 2025

One of the better albums from led zeppelin. Still one of the most overrated bands ever.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
Oct 27 2025

Oct 28 2025

Now this why I started this list. Some i never was exposed to before and is worth listening. Great music great songs great vocals.

Oct 29 2025

The vocals were fantastic, then song 2 same vocals. Song 3 more of the same. Song 4 the same. The same. Same.

The Cars by The Cars
Oct 30 2025

Great music from a great band

Halcyon Digest by Deerhunter
Nov 06 2025

Good thing I wasn't driving with this shit on. I would have fallen asleep and hurt someone.

Gris Gris by Dr. John
Nov 07 2025

Not the best on the list.

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Nov 08 2025

This is a good album by a talented men. But I will never listen again.

Broken English by Marianne Faithfull
Nov 10 2025

This a reason the wish for a quick death. With a quick death i would not have had to listen to more then one of these slow feel shitty songs

Heaven Or Las Vegas by Cocteau Twins
Nov 12 2025

It is a shame that of all the music in the world that could have made the list I keep having to listen to crap.

The Man Machine by Kraftwerk
Nov 15 2025

More bad stuff on the list that is s'pose to be music.
