Black Sabbath

2/5

I had high hopes. I really did not enjoy it.

The Cars

4/5

I liked this one. The hits starting out right away got me excited. Did not know any songs after the first three, but it was pretty good overall.

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

2/5

Listened to this while I was making breakfast, and I was just vibin’. Finished making breakfast to realize I still had a half hour longer to go and gave up for a while. Came back to it later in the day, and I barely made it through the album.

Abbey Road

Beatles

4/5

An obvious classic. I have never listened to the whole album, and I have only ever listened to the hits. I liked some and didn’t like others. At times, I felt that I was listening to children’s music. The hits are the hits for a reason. I have never been a huge Beatles fan, but I enjoyed listening to this full album.

Parklife

Blur

3/5

I think that was the most British album I have ever listened to. Some songs I could see myself listening to but not all.

The instruments on this album are what really makes this a great album. A good album for a chill day

Roots

Sepultura

5/5

I loved it. I thought it was bad ass. It will definitely be in my workout playlist.

The Beach Boys Today!

The Beach Boys

3/5

Not really a fan. I couldn’t tell when one song ended and the next one began. I liked the first couple of songs, and then I was over it.

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

2/5

Wouldn’t it be nice is a great song. Other than that, it was not my cup of tea.

The Score

Fugees

4/5

I have never heard of Fugees before. I will most likely be listening again.

Considering this was a cover album, I was pretty excited to hear what Willie was going to do. I didn’t mind it, but it is not something I would go out of my way to listen to again.
