Was fine. Not bad but I was bored

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

4/5

A fun bluesy time

Joan Armatrading

4/5

Gorgeous album. And a lot of fun too. Some Joni Mitchell vibes

Elephant

The White Stripes

4/5

The one White Stripes album I listened to a lot as a teen. Not sure why I never got to the others, but this one is so fun

Hunky Dory

David Bowie

5/5

Big Bowie fan and this one is among my faves. Such fun songs

Live At The Harlem Square Club

Sam Cooke

4/5

Beautiful voice and great charisma and the band plays real nice too

Heroes

David Bowie

5/5

Another favorite Bowie album. Absolute masterpiece. Him and Brian Eno were really cooking

Dummy

Portishead

4/5

Very good and very soulful

Countdown To Ecstasy

Steely Dan

4/5

Big fan of Can't Buy a Thrill and haven't explored much outside that so it was nice to listen to this one. It's no CBAT but it's still a good time

Talking Timbuktu

Ali Farka Touré

4/5

Very good!

Master Of Puppets

Metallica

3/5

Loud and brings the energy. Feel like I'd grow to love this one a lot with another 3-4 listens

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

3/5

Can see why Bob's a legend. There's some good tunes on here but didn't love them all but can see why it's good

The Libertines

3/5

A fun time inspired by classic rock and punk

Let It Be

The Replacements

3/5

Very disjointed. A lot of styles that change without rhyme or reason. None of it's bad but only a couple songs really stood out to me

Live At The Star Club, Hamburg

Jerry Lee Lewis

2/5

Can see why this is important but wow it was not for me

The Village Green Preservation Society

The Kinks

4/5

Very funny very silly. Very 60s. Very Beatles. Almost as good as Sgt. Pepper's

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson

3/5

A good folk album with one big hit and one novelty song.

Neon Bible

Arcade Fire

4/5

A modern classic that will likely be tainted by its leader being a dick. But goddamn what an album

Everything Must Go

Manic Street Preachers

3/5

Very 90s. Pretty good. Can def see how they paved the way for bands like Anberlin a few years later

Risque

CHIC

3/5

Discooooo. The first tune is one we've all heard and is a classic. The rest is real good EW&F vibes.

Pretenders

3/5

Is this art punk? The vibe I got was if Laurie Anderson had a punk band

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

3/5

A fun romp! The hits are some of the better tunes but there's some other good stuff here. Seems like really fun music to make (or see live)

On The Beach

Neil Young

3/5

GREY Area

Little Simz

3/5

Cool beats and a unique voice

Da Capo

Love

4/5

A very cool 60s album I'm surprised I'd never heard of. Doors-y at times, Stones-y at others, and its own thing sometimes too. With a radical 19 minute closer

3 Feet High and Rising

De La Soul

4/5

A certified classic! So many fun samples

Here's Little Richard

Little Richard

3/5

Rock and roll

Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan

3/5

A few I really enjoyed but overall just another Bob Dylan record. Not sure if any will ever live up to Desire for me

Shleep

Robert Wyatt

4/5

A weird lil album! A bit of a Bowie with jazz situation

Synchronicity

The Police

4/5

I don't know what I was expecting but it wasn't this! There's a song about dinosaurs (Walking in your Footsteps), a song about becoming a serial killer (Murder By Numbers), and a truly deranged song about the singer's relationship with his mother (Mother). What a delightfully weird time

Gunfighter Ballads And Trail Songs

Marty Robbins

4/5

Cowboy songs yeehaw! Some classics here and Marty is a master storyteller

Station To Station

David Bowie

5/5

In the top 3 for Bowie. What a cool album with so many amazing songs

Blur

3/5

Damon Albarn owes an awful lot to Bowie (a lot of artists do but some make it more obvious). Also didn't realize THAT song was by Blur or called Song 2. A fine record and a decent record, but I think I prefer Damon as a cartoon

Arise

Sepultura

3/5

I don't listen to enough metal to really know what's good and what's great but had a decent time with this one. Some real nice drumming. Would give 3.5 if that was an option

Wild Is The Wind

Nina Simone

4/5

Nina is a legend and this collection of songs is grand and beautiful

Debut

Björk

4/5

Beautiful and strange and surprisingly danceable. Bjork has such a unique voice

Killing Joke

2/5

Loud and not exactly my vibe but some good stuff

Beggars Banquet
