Live At The Harlem Square Club
Sam Cooke
Let me first say that I'm really glad this rating system is out of 5 instead of out of 10. I feel like differentiating between albums with that sort of granularity is sort of beyond my capabilities, so this works well. Live at the Harlem Square Club was good honest fun. It was upbeat, catchy, and Sam Cooke has great crowd control. I did, about halfway through, find myself getting a little tired of the taste, though, which ultimately is what I think knocks it down for me. Otherwise, this was a fun listen in the style of music I generally like, and I was glad to be shown it!

The Score
Fugees
I really liked this one. It had a lot of cool songs I recognized from when I was younger on it, and I LOVE Ms Lauryn Hill.

Deep Purple In Rock
Deep Purple
This game should be 1000 albums generator. 1001 was entirely unnecessary. This one did not need to get included.

Bat Out Of Hell
Meat Loaf
I was listening to this and thinking to myself (after listening to Deep Purple in Rock and HATING it): "maybe I do like rock?". Nope. I like musicals, and this is a rock-flavored musical, which was fine I guess, but I think all the parts of it that I liked were the musical parts and none of them were the rock ones. It was fun to listen to, still.
"The album was developed from the musical Neverland." -Wikipedia
Yep.

The Dreaming
Kate Bush
I love Kate Bush, and Suspended in Gaffa is a massive banger, but this album was a little "cooler" than it was "good sounding" at times. That being said, what a massive relief to have a bit of a mix up. Overall, though, this one is my favorite we've listened to so far.

I really wish I could give this album fewer stars. Honestly.

You Are The Quarry
Morrissey
I actually asked my friends if this was a parody album after listening to the first song, and they said "Nope, that's just Morrissey". I feel like that sums up my listening experience pretty well.

Raising Hell
Run-D.M.C.
Itβs interesting to see how far rap has come since this was released. It was also interesting how the beat made it so easy to hear the lyrics. Itβs a shame that the lyrics themselves werenβt, though.

Rio
Duran Duran
This was better than Raising Hell by Run-DMC, but not nearly as good as the Kate Bush album we listened to. It was fun, sounded nice, and had some nostalgic songs I remember my parents playing when I was a kid. The epitome of a 3 star album.

Imagine
John Lennon
Imagine (the song) was way better than I remembered, so I was really disappointed that the rest of this album wasn't very good. Thankfully, it was fairly short, so the good parts made up a not-insignificant portion of it. Overall, sort of in the middle I guess?

This album started over and I literally didn't even notice except that I felt like I had endured enough. It was not very good...

Listened to this while working, so I wasn't able to pay a TON of attention to it, but every time I found myself actively listening I was really impressed by what I was hearing. I really liked it :)

It was okay I guess. I was sort of expecting to like it more than I did. Maybe my expectations were too high

Bert Jansch
It was, at times, hard to tell whether the person playing the guitar was a genius or a 7 year old. I feel like it was so close to greatness, but didnβt quite achieve it. Bertβs singing didnβt help.
