Songs In The Key Of Life
Stevie Wonder
Definitely giving retro 70s summer vibes and I love the album cover (reminds me of a sunset). Main criticism is lack of variety, Pastime Paradise was my fave on this album because it was different and stood out from the rest (Gangster's Paradise inspo?!?!.) The whole album reminded me of C.J Rislove's astronaut and the rockstar. Stevie Wonder has a super unique voice which sounded sooo good with the piano. Unfortunately this music isn't really my style or I would have enjoyed this album a lot more. This was very entertaining to listen to as it was out of my comfort zone. (I did want to hear some more slower songs!)

I wasn't a fan of the lead singer's voice and was disappointed with the instrumentals. A lot of bands during this time sounded similar and Siouxsie and The Banshees failed to stand out or really differentiate themselves (at least in this album.) Very reminiscent of Kate Bush.

Very calming, pretty, and perfect for a rainy day. I'm not a huge fan of instrumentals and I would have preferred a longer album with shorter songs. Definitely going to listen to this while I study.

Great album! I adored the vocals on Barrytown, which is probably my favorite off this album (along with With a Gun.) Had such a great variety of instrumentals so every song sounded different from the last.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme
Simon & Garfunkel
I have this album on vinyl and I LOVE it. All 28 minutes and 8 seconds were a blessing for my ears. Keeping the theme of the album while having each song sound so unique is crazy. If two woodland elves made an album this is what it would sound like. I love when medieval music is incorporated into folk rolk and Parsley, Sage, Rosemary, and Thyme is a wonderful example of that.One of my all time favorites. ❤❤❤
