Kind Of Blue
Miles Davis
Jazz isn't really my thing but this is quite pleasant and chill. Apparently there was a lot of improvisation and very little rehearsal which makes it even more impressive that it sounds so nice.
Flamenco sketches was the most laid back and I really liked it despite it being the only one from this album not in his ten most popular.

The Renaissance
Q-Tip
Easy listening. Basically every song would work well during a night talking with friends.
The guy was in A Tribe Called Quest apparently.

The Joshua Tree
U2
Considering all I know U2 for is having one of their albums forced into every iTunes library and nobody liking that I must say I'm pleasantly surprised. Pretty damn good especially the first few songs.

Fairly good songs in this album. Don't think I've listened to any of them before, at least not actively.
'Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard' sounded familiar and was brilliant. 'Paranoia Blues' was surprisingly good.

1984
Van Halen
'Top Jimmy' made me think this would be a fairly good album, 'Drop Dead Legs' put a swift end to that.
'Panama' is excellent and easily the best song on this album. I'm not actually a big fan of 'Jump', maybe I just think it's too long or overplayed.
'Hot for Teacher' could have been good if it was about something that isn't so damn cringe for 27-30 year olds to write.
I don't think I've ever been excited about a guitar solo and they often feel a little unnecessary. This album is primarily guitar solos.

A little long but I must say I'm surprised by how enjoyable this was.

Sister
Sonic Youth
With a lot of these songs I feel so close to really enjoying them but some aspect of them is holding me back. Maybe this is something that will diminish with time and further listening. The Wikipedia articles I read about this album and it's loose influence, Philip K Dick, were very interesting.
Cotton crown was probably my favourite.

Off The Wall
Michael Jackson
'Workin Day and Night' might just be one of my favourites of his. I can't believe I'd never heard it before. Solid album all round.

Microshift

The first three songs are really really good but it goes downhill a bit from there. No idea why it's on this list but I can't say I'm too upset that it is.

Abysmal. The very few good parts aren't even whole songs but sections of songs. Not even possible to just listen to the good bits.

Not atrocious. One good song in there, most of them are fine. Far, far, far too long. Maybe it should be 1 star instead?

Pretty good. Sounds a lot like Elvis but I'm not sure who came first. Probably this guy if his nickname is anything to go by.

Sweetheart Of The Rodeo

Nice album. Some really good songs on this one even though I don't really think country is my thing. Life in prison is a very strange song. Perhaps I'm missing something but it's just a guy feeling sad because he killed his wife??
