British Steel

Judas Priest

3/5

Slow songs are not great; R,W and B and united. Other stuff rips, vocals are awesome as expected from priest. Have listened to this a bunch in the past but never really to judge it. Id like to give it a 3.5 honestly

The Chronic

Dr. Dre

4/5

Dr. Dre was the worst part of the album! Funky, every other artist killed it. Fun listen.

My Generation

The Who

4/5

bluesy, souly, beautifully overdrummed, songwriting hits some really good highs, but some are a little "teenaged love", but thats pretty typical for the time. Things shine on the ox, I'm a man, my generation. Can feel some early counterculture coming through

Moon Safari

Air

3/5

Downtempo and chill, some songs I loved. Others I got bored off but for background listen in my office was super chill. Will add to my cycle

Surf's Up

The Beach Boys

2/5

not my first thought about beach boys, found it mostly a little slow. But good song writing at times

Appetite For Destruction

Guns N' Roses

4/5

I know it's a classic, used to be a favorite. At this point in my life it hasn't aged the best, the singles are overplayed, the only song I don't like is my Michelle. Based on my nostalgia and my recognition that it rocks I'll go 4. But really for me now it's a 3

Blur

4/5

Back to Mystery City

Hanoi Rocks

5/5

Never heard any of this. Unreal. I dunno if they tried to be tongue in cheek but I love it. More proto-punk than glam and just unbelievable. My first 5.

Stardust

Willie Nelson

4/5

Awesome, smooth, easy to listen to. some great songs

They Were Wrong, So We Drowned

Liars

1/5

Not my thing, not enough of anything for me. Not boppy enough for electronic Not loud enough for noise Not fast or interesting enough for punk I feel others have done this a lot better. it is definitely weird, some credit for that

The Age Of The Understatement

The Last Shadow Puppets

3/5

I'll probably listen again, interesting and lots to it. Not exactly my thing but the songs are unique and I love Alex Turner

This Is Hardcore

Pulp

2/5

A little over the top for my liking, parts of songs are really good at times but nothing really hit me awesome. Probably won't listen again but I didn't hate it

Horses

Patti Smith

3/5

a little out there at times, but really hits some excellent songs and really fun to listen to

Red Dirt Girl

Emmylou Harris

2/5

little slow, couldnt really focus enough to dig into song writing because I just wasnt super into it, but I didnt really hate it. not for me

MTV Unplugged In New York

Nirvana

5/5

Strangeways, Here We Come

The Smiths

3/5

Only Built 4 Cuban Linx

Raekwon

3/5

Some great songs, some wutang vibes, song with nas was great. bit long though and the interlude skits were kinda killing momentum for me

Music in Exile

Songhoy Blues

3/5

Music was excellent, lyrics had nice movement to it but not understanding it didnt hit the same, will definitely listen to this again though. really a 3.5

Wild Wood

Paul Weller

3/5

dragged out a little, but hits really great parts with some sick guitar work and little jam sessions

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson

4/5

Truth

Jeff Beck

3/5

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

4/5

Maggot Brain

Funkadelic

4/5

Good, the intro and outro are longer, and at times gets a little odd for odds sake, but the middle songs are all real good. Feels like a great album to sit and listen to on vinyl while it spins, to really feel it.

Tragic Songs of Life

The Louvin Brothers

2/5

Definitely Maybe

Oasis

4/5

great brit pop, easy to listen to

Head Hunters

Herbie Hancock

3/5

genuinely wish it was longer, really liked it though. closer to 3.5

Second Toughest In The Infants
