Foo Fighters

3/5

Meh- it's ok for what it is. It does what it says on the tin.

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

5/5

Absolutely foundational.

Mothership Connection

4/5

Bringing It All Back Home

3/5

Screamadelica

Primal Scream

3/5

Movin' on up is the obvious, big hit. It still sounds good. The rest of the album is pretty good, but nothing hits that height.

Street Life

The Crusaders

3/5

The most "music for brunch" record I've ever heard. But, would go well with scrambled eggs.

Pump

Aerosmith

2/5

Superfly

Curtis Mayfield

5/5

Entirely too funky. A delight.

Cosmo's Factory

Creedence Clearwater Revival

5/5

Has my absolute favorite CCR song on it, which is Long As I Can See The Light. A collection of great songs.

Live / Dead

Grateful Dead

4/5

I like the Dead, and I liked this record, but it wasn't the right time of day for it, if that makes sense.

Boston

3/5

Hard to rate- it is maybe the most classic rock album ever, which means I've heard it a billion times already. They're good at what they do for what they do, though.

System Of A Down

4/5

I don't like the vocals, but the music is very well done.

Parklife

Blur

4/5

5/5

5/5

This Year's Model

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

4/5

Wanted to go 4.5, because there's a little filler here, but the heights are so very very good.

Music

Madonna

3/5

Completely forgettable, but the title track was pretty good.

L.A. Woman

The Doors

1/5

I fucking HATE the Doors. HATE HATE HATE. Self-indulgent twaddle.

Van Halen

5/5

Not always what you want, but if this is what you want, nobody does it better. Ain't Talkin Bout Love still goes so hard.

The New Tango
