Court And Spark

Joni Mitchell

5/5

Hell yeah I love Joni Mitchell

Life's Too Good

The Sugarcubes

4/5

I love it, it’s like if Björk was in the B52s.

Siembra

Willie Colón & Rubén Blades

5/5

Love - listened to it twice. There’s some killer Latin percussion and great bass playing on this record.

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

5/5

It’s a classic for a reason

Parklife

Blur

2/5

I think it was a had to be there sort of situation. Not for me.

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

5/5

I’d estimate ive listened to this album over 50 times in my life as an alto sax player - Paul Desmond made it cool

Arrival

ABBA

5/5

An absolute classic. The basslines, the harmonies, just awesome

The White Album

Beatles

5/5

It is my favorite Beatles Album

Rip It Up

Orange Juice

2/5

I understand why people would be into it, New Wave just isn’t my thing.

Highway 61 Revisited

Bob Dylan

5/5

Another classic- had this one on vinyl from parents and used to listen to it over and over again while all my peers were listening to dr Dre. No wonder I didn’t have any friends hahah

Emperor Tomato Ketchup

Stereolab

5/5

I don’t know which of the Stereolab albums are my favorite but I know I never turn off one of their songs when it comes on

Africa Brasil

Jorge Ben Jor

5/5

An album in which I learn about an instrument of which I was previously unaware (e.g. the cuica) is a five star album.

Rust In Peace

Megadeth

4/5

A glorious slice from a different time. Some of those drum parts are shocking honestly.

Fleet Foxes

5/5

I mean I traveled to Spain to see this band because of this album

Chicago Transit Authority

Chicago

5/5

Bummed

Happy Mondays

1/5

I gave it a try, I made it about an hour in but it’s really a slog and didn’t grab me at all. Just not my style.

Smile

Brian Wilson

4/5

For as famous as it is, I had never listened to it before!

Natty Dread

Bob Marley & The Wailers

5/5

Fetch The Bolt Cutters

Fiona Apple

5/5

Holy shit the percussion alone is worthy of 5 stars

Live!

Fela Kuti

5/5

This album is a party from start to finish, and a masterpiece to boot. I first heard about it on the Ginger Baker documentary where you find out he is absolutely batshit crazy, but also a virtuoso who pushed the boundaries and found Fela to work together AFTER he revolutionized rock and roll with Clapton. Still, the bass playing is the best part of the album.

Reign In Blood

Slayer

5/5

What a gd ripper

Surfer Rosa

Pixies

5/5

I mean cmon

Bryter Layter

Nick Drake

5/5

Was not prepared for the beauty that is a Nick drake album today haha

Rubber Soul

Beatles

5/5

A friend of mine burned this for me in high school and I used to listen to it all the time. Michelle was my favorite from the album for a long time, but I think maybe now it’s Drive My Car?

World Clique

Deee-Lite

5/5

Hell yeah- love it when Bootsy shows up outside of P-funk. One of my favorite bass players of all time

Dust

Screaming Trees

4/5

It’s fun to hear the early ideas that became QOTSA
