fIREHOSE

5/5

It’s so good. Like if the Minutemen were a classic rock band. And I say that with all sincerity and positivity.

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

5/5

This crew understood the importance of extremes in rock and roll. For this album, they cranked everything- song lengths, instrumentation, emotion, and lyrics up to 11. And never let up for a second.

The Stranger

Billy Joel

4/5

The hits are amazing, all time classics. Vienna and Scenes are fan favorite deep cuts for a reason. The other songs, and it’s just two songs really, are almost filler tracks that drop it to less than five stars.

Ocean Rain

Echo And The Bunnymen

4/5

Good, not great? I enjoy it, but it isn’t my favorite from them.

Come Away With Me

Norah Jones

4/5

This album is weighted so heavily to “Don’t Know Why” that one forgets the rest of the album is great too.

Jazz Samba

Stan Getz

4/5

Stan Getz is a fantastic blower. Not a great guy. But this album is quite good, almost in par with his greatest works.

Life's Too Good

The Sugarcubes

3/5

It’s… fine? I never got into the Sugarcubes the way I got into Bjork.

Paranoid

Black Sabbath

5/5

The first four Sabbath albums are perfection.

From Elvis In Memphis

Elvis Presley

5/5

Lots of good Elvis albums, only a handful of truly great ones. This album is great.

Hot Rats

Frank Zappa

5/5

Seminal Jazz fusion.

Doggystyle

Snoop Dogg

5/5

Classic. I wish Snoop kept caring instead phoning it in basically for the rest of his career after this one.

The Velvet Underground

5/5

It’s their best album. Except for the other three (not counting Squeeze, though that’s great too…), which are also their best album.

Supa Dupa Fly

Missy Elliott

5/5

It’s very good. Her relaxed confidence in her art oozes throughout.

Arular

M.I.A.

3/5

It’s okay. I want to like it. I’m told by influencers, critics and gatekeepers that I should like it. And the beats slap. But I never long to return to it.
