My Life In The Bush Of Ghosts

Brian Eno

5/5

My all time number one cleaning album

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

5/5

Strong medicine to change my mood and level my heartbeat. I often put this on while my students work.

Nick Of Time

Bonnie Raitt

2/5

Remain In Light

Talking Heads

5/5

Debut

Björk

5/5

Face to Face

The Kinks

4/5

What a lovely album. Guess I’m a foppish British gentleman now

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

3/5

Not my favorite Stevie record but it does have They Won’t Go When I Go, which is my number one Sad Stevie song. Heaven Is Ten Zillion Light Years Away is my other favorite. My love of that song was one of the reasons for my divorce.

Surf's Up

The Beach Boys

5/5

I don’t want to focus on the negative, BUT I learned that you can hide songs by right-clicking on Student Demonstration Time and never having the chance of listening to it again. What an incredible album. I instantly listened to it twice this week after Brian Wilson’s passing, once in headphones and once through my beat up vinyl copy. Both sounded great in different ways. Please play Feel Flows at my funeral.

Smash

The Offspring

1/5

There is no way I will listen to this ever.

Fleet Foxes

5/5

This record is so pretty. As someone raised in church, the layers of harmonies are warm quilts to wrap up in. What a nice world to step into for 39 minutes. After internet research on who the problematic brother character might be, I took a nap. I hope the brother is doing okay somewhere.

KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka

3/5

Probably better in headphones on a walk. Will revisit. My cat loved this album.

Back At The Chicken Shack

Jimmy Smith

3/5

Would visit the chicken shack again

Talking Book

Stevie Wonder

4/5

I’m three months into a one year snooze of this record because I wore it out in my ears. Maybe Your Baby though… may break it early

Medúlla

Björk

4/5

Challenging and super rewarding. Step into the Emotional Thunderdome with Björk!

Goodbye And Hello

Tim Buckley

2/5

I think it’s because I love Jeff Buckley’s music so much that all I hear is a deadbeat dad singing dumb poems. Once I Was is pretty good though.

Heaven Or Las Vegas

Cocteau Twins

5/5

If this album had a texture, it would be tinfoil, glitter and dried tears stuck with honey to an amplifier.

Stand!

Sly & The Family Stone

4/5

Loved it while listening in company. Will come back to it

After The Gold Rush

Neil Young

5/5

When Salads and Sunbeams performed this whole thing, it was the most perfect combination possible. The French horn in the title track makes me cry every time. My vinyl copy is so bad, but I love it more than most things.

Paranoid

Black Sabbath

4/5

Between this album and Spirit of Eden by Talk Talk, it's a good thing I don't know where to get heroin.

The College Dropout

Kanye West

4/5

3 Years, 5 Months And 2 Days In The Life Of...

Arrested Development

5/5

I absolutely love this album. It never ever leaves my CD stack in my car. Hits are Mr. Wendal (who I think is friends with Mr. Jones) and Tennessee. Positive, groove-filled 90’s hip hop brilliance. See also Dream Warriors.

Quiet Life

Japan

3/5

The third best Japan album. Tin Drum or gtfo

Africa Brasil

Jorge Ben Jor

4/5

Melody A.M.

Röyksopp

4/5

Track 2 was absolute fire. Have I heard some of these in commercials before? Note to self: better review next time

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

5/5

Bridge Over Troubled Water

Simon & Garfunkel

4/5
