Odessey And Oracle

The Zombies

3/5

The classic ‘nam song Weird WW1 song that is haunting and out of place but maybe my favorite

My Aim Is True

Elvis Costello

4/5

Welcome to the working week rules Watching the detective too Overall classic, but probably only going to relisten to those singles

This Is Fats Domino

Fats Domino

3/5

Hard to find this version Blueberry hill is a classic Ain’t that a shame too I fell asleep at first but later appreciated it more.

Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers

3/5

A little grittier and more soul than the later commercial stuff. Can tell why American girl got picked as the single, much more poppy than the rest of the album.

Transformer

Lou Reed

3/5

Lowkey but good singles. Gets a lil extra on the wacky lyrics in others

Home Is Where The Music Is

Hugh Masekela

3/5

Good stuff Catchy jazz, did not expect to listen to it as much as I did

Kid A

Radiohead

2/5

I’ve listened to this at least 10 times and I forget most of it immediately after. Not a bad thing I guess but nothing sticks, kind of like a sound bath. Thom yorke needs to eat his spinach

The Stranger

Billy Joel

3/5

Some catchy classic tracks but not my steez. Probably heard Only the good die young too many times.

Let It Bleed

The Rolling Stones

2/5

It’s alright - sometimes the fake Englishman blues act can get a bit played out. Couple classic tracks tho, sound good on openback headphones.

A Little Deeper

Ms. Dynamite

1/5

First album I only listened to once - not my style.

Aqualung

Jethro Tull

3/5

Can see where stoner metal comes from. It’s weird, I feel like I should like it more than I do - I think there's too many tempo changes and hippie asides that pull away from the main groove for me. Also was a period of time where stuff felt… medieval? Like I could see some of these in hobbitton.

Parallel Lines

Blondie

4/5

Love Blondie. First time I’ve paid attention to the lyrics, feels kind of like how the Police had stalking songs, and this is from the female perspective.

All Things Must Pass

George Harrison

4/5

Super dense, I’ve listened to the whole thing and repeated sections for this project. George is the best beatle I think.

2112

Rush

3/5

Some good ones but for some reason it feels like homework.

Bob Dylan

2/5
