This Is Hardcore
Pulp
Never heard pulp before, I was expecting more of an Oasis/Blur sort of thing. This is more Bowie / Muse like. Video for title track was very cool.
Darker or more brooding that I expected. I enjoyed though I am not sure how much I can come back to this.

Raising Hell
Run-D.M.C.
Reminds me of my friend, coincidentally named Darryl. Certain songs I can't listen to without a smile on my face. Not a huge fan of old school hip-hop, but it does take me back.

This is another one from my past beautiful album. Still can't understand what Michael is saying in most songs, but I get it.

Songs Of Leonard Cohen
Leonard Cohen
My first experience with Leonard Cohen. More of a poet and lyricist and less of a singer, like Lou Reed. I can see the appeal, but not something I would go back to a lot.

The King! First time with the album that started his legacy, and this is great listening. Totally reminds me of my father.

White Light
Gene Clark
I was a bit nervous about this, considering I had never heard of it, and it did not sell at all in the US. However, it was surprisingly pleasant to listen to as an album, and I could see coming back to this. I think it did poorly because there is not really a hit song that is marketable on the radio.

Flamin' Groovies
Not sure where to start. This is my first listen to the Flamin' Groovies.... the music was spot on, loved the blues take on rock music. The vocals were almost comical though. Did not have the feel of something more polished. Overall a good listen and a good experience.

Enjoyed it! Simply lovely, although impossible to download and very difficult to find on Spotify.
