Jack Takes the Floor by Ramblin' Jack Elliott

Generally pleasant, nice in the background

Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane

Meh.

Is This It by The Strokes

Fine for 2001 but I really don't need to revisit this.

Franz Ferdinand by Franz Ferdinand

Falls in the bad euro dance category of the 00's. Garbage

L.A. Woman by The Doors

Some good stuff, some old psychedelic style I don't really like

MTV Unplugged In New York by Nirvana

Always good but makes me sad

Scissor Sisters by Scissor Sisters

The Score by Fugees

Classic

The Chronic by Dr. Dre

Like time traveling

Beach Samba by Astrud Gilberto

Smile by Brian Wilson

I just don't care for this

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd

The Sun Rises In The East by Jeru The Damaja

There's No Place Like America Today by Curtis Mayfield

Fine

Disintegration by The Cure

Bossanova by Pixies

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads

Songs In The Key Of Life by Stevie Wonder

To much Jesus

Catch A Fire by Bob Marley & The Wailers

Yes

Getz/Gilberto by Stan Getz

Savane by Ali Farka Touré

Pleasant music of a genre I wouldn't typically bump into

Tom Tom Club by Tom Tom Club

Track1: Dumb garbage from the 80s Track2: What Mariah Carey's Fantasy is sampled from Track3: Garbage Rhythms Track4: Pointless Track5: They raided a high school percussion closet Track6: Ignorable background music Dumb in the way that Matt & Kim is dumb, there's not much depth, its a bunch of noise. Sometimes its OK but I'd never recommend this to anyone. Not my deal, I don't need to keep going

Veckatimest by Grizzly Bear

Not my thing

Red Dirt Girl by Emmylou Harris

What's Going On by Marvin Gaye

Good

The Last Of The True Believers by Nanci Griffith

Halcyon Digest by Deerhunter

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road by Elton John

Buena Vista Social Club by Buena Vista Social Club

Very nice, almost required listening

Stardust by Willie Nelson

I don't typically care for cover albums

Car Wheels On A Gravel Road by Lucinda Williams

basic and boring

Stankonia by OutKast

God tier music

Like Water For Chocolate by Common

Meh, never was big on Common

If You're Feeling Sinister by Belle & Sebastian

Horribly basic sounding. The vocals do nothing particularly interesting, not quite talking, certainly not singing. The lyrics are unintelligent and random.

The Black Saint And The Sinner Lady by Charles Mingus

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes

Doesn't stand the test of time. Belongs back in 2005

evermore by Taylor Swift

A plague on modern music, should be deleted from existence

The Marshall Mathers LP by Eminem

nope

A Northern Soul by The Verve

this was always terrible

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath

Actually really good, I should listen to more Black Sabbath

Deep Purple In Rock by Deep Purple

Hail To the Thief by Radiohead

All Hail the Queen by Queen Latifah

Pop dance area of popular hip hop at the time. Uninteresting.

The Nightfly by Donald Fagen

Surfer Rosa by Pixies

Always good

Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space by Spiritualized

Meh

Bert Jansch by Bert Jansch

Os Mutantes by Os Mutantes

Crap psychedelic music

Hot Fuss by The Killers

Another one that belongs back in the 2000's

GREY Area by Little Simz

Good new hip hop

Heavy Weather by Weather Report

One Nation Under A Groove by Funkadelic

Synchronicity by The Police

This would be better if the recording didn't sound like trash.

Fun House by The Stooges

Jazz Samba by Stan Getz

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

Liege And Lief by Fairport Convention

Uninteresting

Ready To Die by The Notorious B.I.G.

Can't really listed to this after the P Diddy diddling revelations

The Bones Of What You Believe by CHVRCHES

A favorite.

White Blood Cells by The White Stripes

This is good but belongs in the 2000's. I don't really need to hear it again

S.F. Sorrow by The Pretty Things

Uninteresting

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan by Bob Dylan

I don't care about Bob Dylan. This is another artist where better music would have been created by others had he not filled the space.

Meat Is Murder by The Smiths

I don't care for the Smiths, I don't like his voice.

The Yes Album by Yes

White Light / White Heat by The Velvet Underground

This is the good version of psychedelic rock from this era, not the Kinks

Something Else By The Kinks by The Kinks

Not terrible but I really don't like this British rock genre from this time period. Cheesy lyrics and tropes
