Figure 8

Elliott Smith

1/5

Garbage. No one should listen to him. He was just a wanna be John Lennon. Like that one guy that was t banned in Africa was bob dylan for the don’t know any better.

Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

3/5

As the album description says was was already established and not new. Not really as significant as the first Tim with miles davis. Mediocre

Grace

Jeff Buckley

1/5

Already heard it. It’s grossly overrated it sounds like over polished Blind Melon. They just did a really good job of pushing it was good, and so people repeat, but nobody that is even a fan remembers a song name. Everyone just remembers hallelujah. People should remember his father more.

Gunfighter Ballads And Trail Songs

Marty Robbins

1/5

Every song sounds like one continuous ballad because the singer is a one trick pony, and certainly doesn’t sound like he is or has ever been on any trail. Who ever put this list together wasn’t qualified

It's Blitz!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

1/5

Crappy singer who is very thankful for tech, backed by very good musicians. Poor guys.

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

David Bowie

3/5

Popular standard. A bit overrated.

Debut

Björk

5/5

Excellent debut. Really pushes the boundaries of pop with only a little stumbling.

BEYONCÉ

Beyoncé

1/5

Seriously the people that put this list together over rate too many albums.

Something Else By The Kinks

The Kinks

3/5

The songwriter shows lots of potential, but they were trying too hard to change their reputation, and created a mediocre album musically. From the sounds of it the music rayed mediocre. Tried to hard to remain pop than committing to the song.

Pornography

The Cure

3/5

It’s a standard for most. I’m particular. No complaints. I’m just more Siouxsie and Peter Murphy than Robert Smith.

Africa Brasil

Jorge Ben Jor

4/5

A fun sound, that was probably a big influence on K’naan.

Appetite For Destruction

Guns N' Roses

3/5

Great band not for me.

São Paulo Confessions

Suba

1/5

Perhaps a bad artist saved by a good producer to make a hardly tolerable album. This should be on anyone’s must listen to list, except teaching what not to do.

Synchronicity

The Police

2/5

I just imagine a room full of desk jockeys, with headphones on all thinking they are ones in the know and the rebel. Bul the willretire from their position after nearly 40 years.

Figure 8

Elliott Smith

1/5

Garbage. No one should listen to him. He was just a wanna be John Lennon. Like that one guy that was t banned in Africa was bob dylan for the don’t know any better.
