Songs In The Key Of Life

Stevie Wonder

5/5

Do you ever listen to an album and just know that someone was meant to do what they're currently doing, like put on this planet to be a musician? I feel that way about Stevie Wonder. Seriously so talented, I can't believe we exist at the same time.

Kala

M.I.A.

4/5

I liked it! It was my first time listening. I would love to go to the club (do I go to the club) and hear this. I listened to it while driving home, grocery shopping and then sitting on my balcony. It made each activity more enjoyable.

Lady Soul

Aretha Franklin

5/5

Aretha Franklin's voice is truly incredible. This album really is fantastic.

Rock 'N Soul

Solomon Burke

5/5

I've heard a few of these songs before, but I loved listening to the entire album. The album was really short, only 34 minutes!

Superunknown

Soundgarden

3/5

Not my style, but a good album.

Elephant

The White Stripes

4/5

I have always liked the white stripes and have been a fan of Jack White, I feel like lots of their songs sound similar but if you like it then they are all goood!

(What's The Story) Morning Glory

Oasis

5/5

They really have so many great songs wow!! I wish I had listened to this album earlier, but worth the wait.

Buena Vista Social Club

3/5

I genuinely enjoyed listening to this album. I listened at work, but I feel like it'd be perfect for a walk or cooking.

A Night At The Opera

Queen

3/5

This album is so fun. Like it was enjoyable to listen to and was energetic. I feel like it lacks cohesion, but Freddie Mercury has such range with his voice and performance.

Modern Sounds in Country and Western Music

Ray Charles

5/5

This album makes me wish I was in love and walking along a cobblestone path with my person. Omg I can't wait to cook an elaborate dinner while listening to this. I am just swaying at my desk imagining what life could be <3

It's Too Late to Stop Now

Van Morrison

4/5

Van Morrison has some soul to him! I didn't realize it. I genuinely enjoyed listening to it! I feel like there were moments when I couldn't 100% understand him, but I felt the emotion. I love a horn section.

Elephant Mountain

The Youngbloods

3/5

Are You Experienced

Jimi Hendrix

4/5

I feel like there's a reason Jimi is regarded as one of the greats. A great album!

Frank

Amy Winehouse

4/5

Her voice is insane, like truly incredible!

Maggot Brain

Funkadelic

4/5

This was so fun??? Not something I'd normally choose but I had a blast listening to it.

Dig Me Out

Sleater-Kinney

3/5

I liked the album! I know Carrie Brownstein from Portlandia and didn't even know she was a musician!

The College Dropout

Kanye West

4/5

Unfortunately soooo goood??? To paraphrase Glee-- He may be difficult, but boy can he rap hahah (4 because of the artist, 5 if it was someone else)

Bad

Michael Jackson

3/5

I feel like Michael Jackson is an interesting person in both good and bad ways and this album is a reflection of that.

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

3/5

I liked it! It isn't my usual style of music but that's what I love about this. In a complimentary way, it sounds like what I imagine aliens and robots would come up with if they needed to create music. I love the lead singer's voice mixed with the techno sound in the background. I feel like I can fully see how some of my favorite bands have referred to them as inspiration.

Run-D.M.C.

4/5

It was a blast listening to this while getting ready! I liked the lyrics and beat. It kind of felt like it shouldn't work but it did?

Oar

Alexander 'Skip' Spence

2/5

An interesting album and even more interesting story about Skip!

John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band

John Lennon

3/5

The album felt kind of chaotic and I just feel like I am not a huge John Lennon fan...

If I Should Fall From Grace With God

The Pogues

2/5

Some songs were good and some songs weren't as good! I think in the right circumstances this could be very fun!

Low

David Bowie

3/5

I feel like David Bowie is insanely talented and known for his artistic approach. I just don't think this is my favorite of his albums.

16 Lovers Lane

The Go-Betweens

4/5

I really liked it. They have a similar vibe to some more like 'well-known to me' bands, but I can see them becoming part of my regular rotation of music.

Green River

Creedence Clearwater Revival

4/5

I love CCR! John Fogerty's voice, the lyrics, and sound just do it for me!

Pearl

Janis Joplin

4/5

Her voice is sooooo unique and the songs are classics. I am a huge fan of 'Cry Baby'

The Grand Tour

George Jones

5/5

I loveeeee his voice! I immediately got chills. It is so velvety and smooth. I feel like there are better albums but I love it so much!
