Jazz Samba by Stan Getz
Apr 20 2025

Pleasant enough, just right for some easy background music. I'm not a fan of bossa nova but did not mind this particular album which probably means it's better than most in its genre. Note: recording is of excellent quality, truly an audiophile-grade album.

Tonight's The Night by Neil Young
Apr 21 2025

Not really my type of music. It's good for what it is I guess but it's too "American" for me and, frankly, boring. I started listening quite loud but kept lowering the volume which is quite telling.

Unknown Pleasures by Joy Division
Apr 22 2025

Just not my cup of tea. Maybe not a bad album altogether but certainly not something I would play for myself, nor would I recommend it to a friend.

C'est Chic by CHIC
Apr 23 2025

Good album, hard to find a weak song, plus two famous hits. I enjoyed it.

Wild Is The Wind by Nina Simone
Apr 24 2025

Emotionally heavy. Beautiful in the same way some funerals are beautiful. Definitely not easy listening, touches difficult issues. Too heavy for me.

Pornography by The Cure
Apr 25 2025

Not my times, not my music. Apart from The Figurehead I failed to make any connection with this music.

Violent Femmes by Violent Femmes
Apr 26 2025

Even though it's totally not my genre I had to appreciate the sheer raw energy of this album.

Mott by Mott The Hoople
Apr 27 2025

Solid album, however lacking a really standout song.

In The Wee Small Hours by Frank Sinatra
Apr 28 2025

Very pleasant album, perfect for a cozy evening (or indeed as a lullaby).

Music by Madonna
Apr 30 2025

I put it on at night, before going to bed. What a mistake.

Dig Your Own Hole by The Chemical Brothers
May 01 2025

Interesting, though ultimately not my thing.

Funeral by Arcade Fire
May 03 2025

Considering I don't like indie rock this is pretty good.

evermore by Taylor Swift
May 04 2025

This is what I imagine AI would generate it I asked it for an album that is the least offensive to the most people. It's easy to listen to but incredibly bland and lacking any stand-out features. It's hard to even tell the songs apart. It's not dog-shit bad so I was considering giving it 2 stars but I can't honestly rate something this mind-numbing any higher than 1.

Exile On Main Street by The Rolling Stones
May 05 2025

Great album. I did not know The Rolling Stones very well before so I was surprised by this catchy blend of blues, rock and rock'n roll. The only critique I could possibly level at it is that it lacks any "hit" songs. On the other hand, it has no weak points either.

Remain In Light by Talking Heads
May 06 2025

Talking Heads weird me out for some reason. I tried giving them a listen a few times and the result is the same as it is with this album - I feel like I'm listening to a band made of psychopaths and murderers. Don't ask me why.

Stardust by Willie Nelson
May 07 2025

Maybe at some point this album was noteworthy for some reason but today it feels unoriginal and boring. With cover songs sometimes an inspired vocal or amazing arrangement can lift it above the ordinary (and indeed above the original) - sadly, neither happens here.

Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
May 11 2025

Very strange album, I'm not sure what to make of it... Not really my thing
