The Hissing Of Summer Lawns by Joni Mitchell

Not my favorite Joni. Appreciate her exploration on this album, but the lyrics felt more disjointed than other albums. Did not enjoy the moog synth on Jungle line.

Low by David Bowie
May 08 2025

Not the Bowie for me. Moments I liked, but other stuff felt like theatrical filler. Prefer when he is on drugs.

Graceland by Paul Simon
May 09 2025

White people love this shit. Especially barefoot white people. Don’t like the spoken rhythm lyrics.

That's The Way Of The World by Earth, Wind & Fire
May 12 2025

Reminds me of being in the car with my dad. Incredible funk album. Thats the Way of the World is one of my favorites. The saxophone makes me miss playing mine.

Zombie by Fela Kuti
May 13 2025

Love all the horns. Very groovy at times, then very jazzy scatting. A big middle finger to the gov't, I can get behind it. And the guy was a polygamist, sweet.

Kimono My House by Sparks
May 15 2025

Nope. finishing this album should make you eligible for saint status.

Head Hunters by Herbie Hancock
May 16 2025

Takes me back to high school. Great stuff

Cosmo's Factory by Creedence Clearwater Revival
May 19 2025

When I was around 15 I came upon CCR. I loved it. Political, southern classic rock, whats not to love. But then I heard my mom say "Ugh Fogerty's voice" in a very unsettling way and I was scarred. 20 years later I can safely say, Mom, I feel the same way.

Kind Of Blue by Miles Davis
May 20 2025

Love this album. Classic top jazz album with some of the best to ever do it together.

Chirping Crickets by Buddy Holly & The Crickets
May 21 2025

I understand its significance, and each song on it's own is good. But albums weren't cohesive yet and the album gets tiring. Longest song is 2.5 minutes.

The Hissing Of Summer Lawns by Joni Mitchell
May 22 2025

Not my favorite Joni. Appreciate her exploration on this album, but the lyrics felt more disjointed than other albums. Did not enjoy the moog synth on Jungle line.

The New Tango by Astor Piazzolla
May 23 2025

Impressive. But not sure the time or place of this for me. Maybe while I'm strolling the streets of a foreign country and want to feel like I am in a movie? Not sure!

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
May 26 2025

I love Tom Petty's hits. But as a debut, it was a little lackluster. Love Breakdown and American Girl, but the rest was a little boring. I was gonna see Tom Petty in high school. Girl I was dating bought great tickets. Then we got in a fight and she gave me my money back. She ended up taking the other girl I was dating instead. What an American Girl.

Marquee Moon by Television
May 27 2025

Really enjoyed this.

The Slim Shady LP by Eminem
May 28 2025

I get it. Eminem had be shocking to successful. It was a time in pop culture that allowed his success. His rhyming is technically impressive, but what he is poetically illustrating is simply lame and juvenile.

Ocean Rain by Echo And The Bunnymen
May 29 2025

Listened, but cant say I enjoyed.

Low-Life by New Order
May 30 2025

There are a few songs that could be decent if they got rid of their lead singer. My god he is horrible.

Rio by Duran Duran
Jun 02 2025

Not a big 80's synth pop rock fan, but this wasnt too bad.

The Suburbs by Arcade Fire
Jun 03 2025

This album always takes me back to college. Peak indie rock days. Who doesn't love a husband and wife band. I remember people freaking out because they didn't know who Arcade Fire was when they won a Grammy. It is hard for me to pick my favorite album between Suburbs, Funeral, and Reflektor, but I've enjoyed everything Arcade Fire has released.

Jun 04 2025

Went into this thinking it’s music for Vegas residencies for older white women, but was pleasantly surprised. He can rock and has such a great voice for it. I enjoy the whole album.

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Jun 05 2025

This is all new to me. Some parts were incredible and genius. Blues and rock and roll and psychedelic and just plain weird, but some parts were a little too weird for me. To be expected on an album from the late 60's over an hour long.

Ray Of Light by Madonna
Jun 06 2025

Some bangers on here, and some awful music too. Ray of light and Frozen are the quickly recognizable tracks and make you want to sing while driving. The upbeat techno was a pleasant surprise and clearly lead the way for a lot of electronic pop today. But songs like Candy Perfume Girl, Ashtangi, and Little Star almost had me turning off the album prematurely. Great singles, not a great album.

Jun 09 2025

Its good. Muse reminds me of Kids Bob for Tool. I like the hits, but as an album most sounds the same. And the songs that don't sound similar, arent as good.
