My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

2/5

This a pretty flat 2 star album. All the songs were very palatable and very similar to each each other in style. But no true great standout songs. Great back ground music for a book store or coffee shop.

Music From Big Pink

The Band

4/5

I love “The Band” and this an excellent representation of them. Definitely will re-listen again. Multiple songs from this album will be add to my favorite Playlist.

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

Excellent album. As a big fan of Jimi. It’s good to hear a different styling of music that are not just another cut for the greatest hits album. Voodoo chile is total different song from the polished version and the hull hogan walk in music. Excellent album. Good listen.

Morrison Hotel

The Doors

3/5

Good album. Enjoyed listening to it. Never have been really exposed to The Doors too much other than their hits. Good listen.

Doolittle

Pixies

3/5

Have heard a lot about the Pixies in my music circles. And this will be my first deep dive into the band, not overly my cup of tea, but there was one or two that I listened to twice.

Licensed To Ill

Beastie Boys

5/5

I already own this on CD and Vinyl. I am excited to revisit it again.

Rattus Norvegicus

The Stranglers

3/5

I truly have never heard of this band. I have also have never heard any song from this band. This was not bad. I think there is some songs that would grow on me after a 2nd or third listen. It’s a solid 3 for me.

Brutal Youth

Elvis Costello

3/5

This was better than his first album. Still a pretty flat album. Not my cup of tea

The Beach Boys

5/5

Its The Beach Boys at their finest.

Jazz Samba

For someone that does not like Jazz…. …this was a pretty awesome album.

More Songs About Buildings And Food

Talking Heads

3/5

Green

R.E.M.

4/5

Solid album. Forgotten how good they are.

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

I not really a fan of Bruce. Not really sure why. Maybe his political views or maybe some things he’s done outside of music. Not really sure. But I have never really dived into any of his albums. But I have to say this is an awesome record. From beginning to end.

Berlin

Lou Reed

1/5

Hard to get through. Didn’t finish.
