Van Halen
5/5
Surprised by the number of songs that I knew on this album. Fun guitar solos throughout. Drums support nicely.
Pearl Jam
3/5
Some absolute classics, but not a needle mover for me.
Kate Bush
3/5
Was previously only familiar with Running Up That Hill, so nice to listen to the entire album. I think the vocals are playful and unique. Feel the album misses a guitar and drums at times.
Fela Kuti
3/5
I am honestly not sure what to make of this. Thoroughly enjoy the beat, the brass, the sax, but it is not something I will find myself coming back to.
Hugh Masekela
3/5
Elvis Costello
3/5
Yes
3/5
Reminds me of Styx? Some fun, playful instrumental things happening.
Elton John
4/5
An absolute classic. Few are as accomplished as Elton, and he hits some of his highest notes here.
Lou Reed
4/5
My initial thought before realizing who Lou Reed actually was, was that this sounded quite a bit like Cake. Fun one.

Kate Bush
2/5
Second Kate Bush album I've gotten after Hounds of Love. Certainly more 'out-there' as an album.
Echo And The Bunnymen

The Doors

U2

Gary Numan
4/5
A pleasant surprise
Elliott Smith
3/5
If it's good enough for Good Will Hunting, then it's good enough for me.
Jeff Buckley
3/5
A bit too all over the place for me
3/5
The Beach Boys
4/5
First real time listening to anything other than the main beach boy hits.

Not their best work, but there has been worse music on this list

Fleetwood Mac
5/5
I was ten or eleven years old, reading a book I have long forgotten, and I vividly remember that it mentioned Fleetwood Mac playing in the background. At that time, I had no idea who Fleetwood Mac was. For all I knew, the band was fictional and made up for the purpose of the story.
I'm not sure when I realized that Fleetwood Mac was an actual band, but I can remember pouring through their discography shortly after college and falling in love. Rumors is one of the few albums I consider perfect.
Frank Zappa
3/5
Kraftwerk
3/5
Enjoyed it more than I thought I would
Khaled

David Bowie
3/5
G. Love & Special Sauce
2/5
In no way, shape or form, did I need to listen to this album before I died.
Black Sabbath
3/5
I’m showing my youth a bit here, but my first exposure to Ozzy came from my father (who claimed to hate reality TV) having The Osbournes. I found it entertaining as hell and it was only later I learned he was a musician.
Tina Turner
3/5

LCD Soundsystem
4/5
Genuinely surprised by how much I enjoyed this.
The Police
3/5
Ice Cube
3/5
I saw Ice Cube at a music festival in 2016(?). It was pouring down rain and I was drunk off cheap alcohol. I had limited exposure to his music at that point, and I can't say that I spent much time afterwards diving in. It's not really relevant to this review, but I'm sharing it anyway.
King Crimson
2/5
Meat Loaf
3/5
For the longest time in my life I imagined Meatloaf’s music was something completely different
The Teardrop Explodes
3/5
I have no issue with the specific album, but pretty tired of all of the average brit-pop representation.
Run-D.M.C.
4/5
The Cars
4/5
Sufjan Stevens
4/5
Patiently waiting for the next state
Beatles
4/5
A bit of the Beatles best work is here, but there’s a bit too much fat around the edges as well.
CHIC

Miriam Makeba

Cat Stevens
3/5
Joan Armatrading
3/5
It sounds fine enough, but all blends together.
The Slits
3/5
Is it the worst album on this list? No. Does its presence on the list confuse me? Yes.

Bruce is truly something else. The man has a way of speaking directly to your soul and eliciting feelings through your body.
Harry Nilsson

The Killers
4/5
A home run of a debut album. Unbelievable five song run to start. The back half is a little weaker and keeps it from being a five. Still maintain that Sam's Town is the best Killers album.
Green Day

This album hovering at a 3 just shows that people are rating a name and not the album itself.
It is not Taylor’s best work, but it probably in her top five.
