Not being a big rap fan this album was just okay for me. Definitely a highly polished and engineering production. I liked the rhythm and beats better than the rap style and lyrics. Interesting to see Jewell featured on it.
I recently rediscovered this artist and enjoy listening to this album in the morning with my coffee. He has a deep rich smooth voice similar to a fresh cup of coffee
It was great to listen to this old time favorite live album. One of the better live albums of the era. The drumming by Moon is amazing and Daltrey's voice is in fine tune mode. Great riffs and extended plays by Townshend. The Ox holds it all together with that heavy thunderous bass playing.
An excellent album by the Pop Master sickly produced great rhythm and musicality. Several wonderful songs with the ultimate Halloween music video on Thriller.
The album that made him a black star and projected on a path away from glam rock and his bisexual characterizations of imaginable stars. Produced and recorded in my home town of Philadelphia-Philly soul time. Plenty of guest artists
I never heard of this artist but enjoyed listening to this album. He has a smooth easy listening voice on these songs which are engineered nicely. His 5th well produced album and definitely worth exploring his earlier catalog and posthumously released material.
Kiss hit the big time right after I left teenager years behind me. But I did take notice to this album their 4th and it's a very good rock n roll album which took American youth by storm. It's just fun fantastic music and what outfits makeup and showmanship. Recommend this for 2 or 3 listens in a row.
Probably their best album. I was never a big fan because their songs sound similar from record to record. This album has some very good numbers on it and is worth adding to your LP collection
This album slipped by me unnoticed back in the day. This is an excellent live album with a great rhythm section. I really enjoyed listening to this LP and will be adding it to my collection.
Ol blue eyes knocks it out of the park with this LP. A great set of classic songs to dance to or snuggle with your honey with a drink on a Saturday evening. I really enjoyed listening to this one on a lazy Sunday morning.
By this album Talking Heads were a polished alternative rock band. It fact they are probably the original alternative rock band. This album has one song after another offered up by bands smooth grooving sounds. Take Me To The River tops the list of these.
I sometimes wonder how some people get record contracts. Waits does some interesting and thought provoking material. I like some of his novelty songs. This album is okay too many songs that are not that good drag it out.
A solid debut album by one of the best selling bands ever. With three big single releases that will get you singing along with the band. 2 great songwriters Glen Frey and drummer Don Henley.
This was my first lusten to a ska/punk band and I found it fun refreshing and danceable. There lyrics are rooted in social commentary of the establishment society and other social issues. The music is a joy to hear. They are particularly good on their live cuts. I listened to the deluxe edition which I recommend for the live recordings. Too bad they only released 2 LPs back in the early 80s.
I can see why this LP was voted the best of all time. This sophomore effort has got some great grooves on it. The cuts synch and flow into one another.
I always felt the Grateful Dead live jams were overrated and this being the initial one proves it. When this was released they weren't very good musicians but they did improve over time. I do like Turn On Your Lovelight. It was pretty good in the 60s.
An enormous effort by Corgan and the band. There are some terrific songs on this LP particularly in the first LP. That's probably where it should of ended. Concept albums of this length get boring and tedious.
This debut album is an excellent album showcasing the talents of this artist. It was a refreshing LP to break on to the scene at the time of it's release. Has a hit single and the other songs are well written sung and arranged.
This is one of the best albums ever created!! So original both musically and lyrical content. Ian Anderson is a genius and in his eccentrically bizarre stories makes a social statement for the ages. His flute playing is iconic and inventive. This is a must LP for your rock collection. Is it prog rock or is it so original it belongs on a shelf of it's own.
If you like that grunge sound this is your type of LP. A few good cuts in here Love to Burn Mansion on The Hill F***in Up. It's missing that big long guitar song with great lyrics like Cortez The Killer Southern Nan or Like a Hurricane.
Nice LP to listen to when you're driving late at night or relaxing at home with the lights low and a glass of beer or wine. Lush sounds cape well engineered and priduced.
Even though the Foo Fighters are not one of my generational bands the sound which they created started with this LP. A very good debut LP. I can see why they became so popular with their generation.
I enjoyed listening to this dark ethereal LP. So different from their later pop LPs which are good too. It has a nice sonic quality to it. Would be nice to listen to in the dark or on a stormy night or a late night drive during a full moon.
From the opening dissonant tritonic riff from Jimi's guitar this is one of the best LPs ever created. The psychedelic rock blues songs just seamlessly flow from one to another like streams feeding the river. Filled with great songs and sonic spacey riffs and soundscapes. Definitely one of the greatest albums created.
I enjoyed listening to this retro album from the 60s. A little before my musical awakening. I love the short song lengths that flow nicely together along with a few of the song titles. Psycho Daisies for one. Beck is excellent and so his the least of the band.
I was never a fan of the long haired hard rock of the 80s but after listening to this LP it might change my view of some of their material. This is a strong album with 3 or 4 top hits on it plus other good songs.
This is one of the best LPs ever. Filled with great grooves smooth musicality and thoughtful lyricism that Stevie is one of the best at. A must listen and add to your record collection. Filled with hit songs.
This LP was the followup of their previous album Rattle and Hum. It's also shows they were trying to get away from their signature sound. Pretty good album with some nice cuts on it. Mysterious Ways, One, Even better Than The Real Thing.
This is an average LP for Roxy in my opinion with a few good cuts. Put out between Standed and Siren it is the weaker of the three.
This album is Da Bomb!! Never even heard of it or Machito himself. I was opened up to whole new jazz music genre. Thr percussion is awesome and so is the sax playing. I loved it ❤️ 💙 💜 💖 💗 💘
I have to rate this LP with 5 stars for a few reasons. First it's a very good Rn B album. It has a signature song on it plus other groovin" rhythms thru out the other sings. Great vocals by the Sledge Sisters and by the way Debbie Sledge was in my high school graduating class. So yes from my hometown of Philadelphia city of soul R n B and the blues. This album was a big factor from that 70s scene. Only disappointment was the Pittsburgh Pirates made We Are Family their championship theme song instead of the Phillies of Philadelphia.
I only ever heard a handful of songs NIN before listening to this LP and was darkly surprised after this first listen. This album is genius cutting edge at it's release time and the song Hurt was a big hit for Johnny Cash the "man in black." Will add it to my play list.
Could not make it thru this LP at all. Found it to be poorly recorded and produced. Don't know how anyone voted album of the year.
This is one of Joel's best albums with a couple rockin songs a love song and a romantic one. The songs are tracked in a thoughtful order. Great music!!
A very good initial effort by Siouxsie and her band. This LP was a groundbreaking at its time for their post punk sound and a woman lead singer of the band. Although their were others before her it was rare. Nice cover of the Beatles Helter Skelter and as time went on they got better n better. Big smash in England but not so much in America.
This album from the South African trumpet master reminds me of smokey basement club rooms in the major cities of 50s-60s America. I can see me sitting there with a double scotch whiskey chilling out to that smooth trumpet playing with those African rhythms holding the music all together. Loved listening to this LP.
This second LP from this band is a solid group of songs with a big hit single in Wonderwall. A couple other good cuts too in Morning Glory and Champagne Supernova. I like the lead singers voice.
This artist has written some great lyrics but I really have difficulty listening to his spoken word style a his voice tone on some songs. Mostly a dark and brooding album with Dress Rehearsal Rag beind most depressing. Famous Blue Raincoat and Joan of Arc are nice songs that he delivers better. Other artists recordings of his songs bring them new life.
Over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again and again and again and again and again and again and afain.............................................................................................................??? ????? ?????????? ? ???? ????????????? ???????? ?? ? ?????
This a very good album with some well written songs and some nice guitar playing. I particularly liked Drunken Angel Can't Let Go and Jackson. A good LP to add to your collection.
A top rated soundtrack album from the 70s. This LP is filled with smooth RnB grooves. Freddie's Dead and Superfly lead the way on this iconic album
What a great debut album by this iconic American hard rock band. The guitarist Slash is awesome and so is lead singer/frontman Axl Rose as well as the rest of the band. One of the best selling albums worldwide and worth every penny. Produced 5 singles and brought Rock n Roll back to life at the end of the 80s.
This album was good to listen to in the evening right before bedtime. I only wish You Tube Music could publish the lyrics along with the track listing. Smooth relaxing sounds with interesting lyrical content.
This is a pretty good first LP. I particularly liked Rock n Roll Star n Supersonic. Too many songs sounding similar or they would earn another star.
Definitely one of his best albums ever. You can hear the grunge starting to come out on 2 tracks. Cowgirl in The Sand and Down by The River. Who was his Cinnamon girl around this time who he lost and sings about thru out the album. He goes from pining about her to shooting her down at the river. Great album!!
Not my favorite Byrds album but it has some good songs and innovative ones too. So you wanna be a rock n roll star is a classic. Renaissance Fair and Mind Gardens were innovative at the time.
I can hear his development of his rapping style on a few of these songs but I really didn't care for any of the material.
I really liked this band. Several good songs. Music was good too. Remind me of the Kinks.
This is one the great music albums of all time. Just fulled with great songs.
This was an interesting listen and I'm sure it was a very early influence on the psychedelic sounds in Frisco n LA in the mid 60s. Love the guitar work. Atmospheric for it's time but with a raw sound at the same time.
The album that made him famous and it's a dynamite one. Jungleland is a street poem deluxe. Born to Run a rock n roll classic hit. Back Streets a glimpse of teecity life. Awesome LP.
These songs had some great grooves on it. Funky rhythmic easy listening groove music.
One of the greatest country singers of all time. She really belts them out on this album.
I liked this album the music is upbeat. Mr. Brightside is a catchy tune. The energy ebbs and flows from sing to song.
This was a pretty good album in it's time but doesn't hold up too well today. But I still like to put the line in the coconut and drink it all up... 😆
This album is groovin with the beats rhythms with good lyricism. Easy listening chill album or even to get the party started.
A fine collection of songs highlighted by the classic Southern Man. Nice cover of Hank Williams Oh Lonesome Me. There's a bit of depressing feel to a few songs as Neal is feeling a love loss. The title track is atmospheric take on the attack on our planet's nature.
An interesting Brazilian band combining Brazilian music with psychedelic. Some interesting music although I have no idea what they are singing about.
Never heard of this album or group. That being said I found listening to it relaxing and melodic. I particularly liked Manchild.
A double LP with some great tracks on it Layla Bell Bottom Blues Nobody Knows You When You're Down n Out along with Key To The Highway. Duane Allman plays slide and lead guitar on some tracks with some really good picking. Didn't chart well but the critics really liked it.
I heard of Alex Harvey but not familiar with his music at all. I was pleasantly surprised with the good Rock n Roll songs on it. He has some risqué baldy numbers typical of blues rockers. This would be a great album to play at parties.
I heard of this group but never listened to them much. I enjoyed listening to this LP.
This LP had a unique sound to it and I liked the vocal harmony.
The greatest album ever.
This guy is a very good songwriter and there are a few good ones on here. A pioneer in the rock/ country genre.
Great album of Americana songs.
One of Wonders best albums with 4 top songs.
I was surprised how good this album was. Some really good alternative/punk songs on this LP. The title track is really good.
Some great songs on this LP. Of course the rock anthem Bohemian Rhapsody but also You're My Best Friend and the klitchy I'm in Love With My Car also the lengthy The Prophet's Song. A little too much sniffle type music for me though.
A classic must have LP. Aretha at her best with some really great songs.
Innovative at the time supposedly for being the first rock opera. Some very solid psychedelic songs on here.
Innovative fresh disturbing a showcase for his talent to evolve.
Not my cup of tea.
I actually liked some of the rap on here along with the skits.
This album starts out strong with 2 of my favorites in the first 3 tracks. Paint it Black is excellent followed by Stupid Girl and the much underrated Lady Janr with it's moody mellow ron synth. Under My Thumb a Stones live classic rounds out the start of the album but it gets pretty bluesy boring after that.
There's a few good songs on here.
Repetitious
An album loaded with Nashville stars. If you like country bluegrass this album is for you. Loaded with classic songs Orange Blossom Special Black Mountain Rag Honky Tonk Blues Wabash Cannonball Grand Ol Opry and of course Will The Circle Be Unbroken
Great songs strong vocals. The title says it all.
Why?
One of the best punk albums ever.
I liked the diversity of this album
My favorite album of his. Side vibe is awesome.
Groundbreaking group out of New York has some nice grooves and rap rhythms.
Did not find this too interesting.
Not bad for a first album. Stupid Girl and Only Happens When it Rains I liked.
Interesting group. Lead singer Beth Gibbons has a great voice. Really liked Glorybox.
A great album with some timeless songs. Take 5, Blue Rondo and Everybody's Jumpin.
Interesting kraut rock.
Boring repetitive and lacks musicality.
Great Live Album!! That last song is jumpin n jivin all over the place!! Loved listening to this LP.
Interesting music for its time. Still holds up. I love Lisa Stansfield
Excellent songs of the current events of the time and the POP culture of that era. In my opinion their best LP. Although Pet Sounds is a technical masterpiece. I find Surf"s Up to be more enjoyable.
Some interesting music but not enough of it.
Innovative for it's time. A bit repetitions sounding.
Lacks lyrical content and songs sound repetitive
Some nice spacey and psychedelic atmospheres.
The speed metal sound is rocking great bass and drum playing. Lyrical and supersonic. The best of the 90s metal bands.
It has some nice trippy music on it.
She is an interesting talent and I liked some of the cuts. Some songs would be better if they were shorter and had less repetition of the lyrics.
Iconic album cover. Very good debut album. Several great songs. Growl is fantastic. Cobain is a great frontman.
I found this LP to be surprisingly interesting.
I enjoyed this more than I expected. Sad to say a great talent gone.
It's a relaxing listen.
An excellent LP. Some claim the best album ever made. It's very good especially in It's time.
Nice chill music
What a beautiful voice and amazing song interpretations.
Some nice grooves and beats. An enjoyable listen.
Some nice guitar rifts. Definitely a hard driving thumping energy. Songs sound too similar though.
Great opening song with a few other good cuts.
Not impressed
Great album
This was a surprisingly good album. Nice grungy sounds on some songs.
They have an interesting sound and a couple of good covers.
Great album in it's time. Innovative sounds blending music genres.
Great album.
An interesting listen.
The last song is really cool and interesting.
Nice sounds to relax to. Innovative music based on keyboards synthesis and lush sounds
When rock n roll just rocked n rolled
This is a very good heavy metal LP. There is a similarity to Metallica or vice versa which is a positive thing. First 2 tracks are awesome.
Great EP. Love the rhythm it really grooves.
Beautiful harmonies resonating deeply and transporting you to a different cultural place.
One of the best albums ever recorded. Joni's 1st album change of direction into the fusion of rock pop and jazz. Does a great cover of Twisted one of my favorite songs she's done and the close out cut of the LP.
This was an interesting listen. Never heard of them. Good versions of the blues.
A few could songs on this LP. Good musicianship and lyrical content.
This was nice listening to on Xmas day. Specter was very good at making records and discovering talent.
A classic album and one of the best Elton John has ever recorded. Tiny Dancer is in my top 10 songs easily.
Interesting group. With 3 different lead singers it really changes the dynamics of the music from song to song.
A very good concept album however much too long of a listen.
Excellent follow up LP to 19. Not a bad song on it.
A nice collection of road songs based on rebel life nonconformity and loss love.
A very under rated group from the 1960s. Great sounds and it was recorded in Mono not stereo. Smooth grooves lush sounds. Very nostalgic for me.
Nice relaxing sound with thoughtful lyricism.
Some nice hard rock sonic songs on thus one.
My favorite Everly Bros. sing Cathy's Clown and the most painful breakup song Love Hurts make this a must buy fit your collection.
Zappa is a crazy genius
Great musicianship with smooth grooves funky rhythyms and Hayes has that great smooth deep voice.
There's a few very good songs on here. Found the length a bit much. Not my favorite Prince album.
This was a pleasant listen. Some nice relaxing cuts on this album.
She has a comforting voice making her album a pleasant listen to. N I ce guitar work backed by lush n airy tunes.
A fine collection of songs sung smoothly and with great instrumentation with great backing vocals. Many Hank Willians songs and a few by Jimmie Davis.
My first ever listen to this artist who's songs I'm very familiar with from being covered by other artists. His deep rich voice makes this album an enjoyable listen.
A surprisingly good album well produced and engineered. Nice lush soundscapes. My 1st listen to MGMT.
This album had some okay songs on it. Really don't know what the big fuss is about them though.
I love the opening song which is the best version of Gloria IMO. Horses is another poetic masterpiece on the punk vein. Patti definitely set the tone for women on the punk rock poetry music form.
Almost made my didn't listen to list but made it to the 3rd track which I liked. Then did some historical background on them and this inspired me to give it a total listen out of curiosity and there minimalistic musical approach. The songs are very short like from back in the early years of rock n roll.
An excellent classic rock album with guitar virtuoso Mark Knopfler at his best. Starts out with 3 solid tracks and finishes with the greatest comrades in arms sobg ever.
I don't know what the fuss is about this album. Songs are kind of boring and they are somewhat depressing.
Some interesting songs. Not a fan and I know this wasn't their best release.
While listening to the 1st few songs I was thinking how bad The Who sounded even though it was recorded in mono. Of course My Generation and The Kids are Alright sounded very good. I started wondering if it was this album and these 2 songs that started them creating their classic masterpieces of music.
This was an enjoyable listen as I've always loved the sax this one played by Stan Turrentine and the organ played by Jimmy Smith. The fusion of these instruments sounded both interesting n pleasing. The Hammond B-3 was legendary in the 60s. Somehow this album n Mr. Smith never made it to my listening booth. Very pleased to have discovered him now!!
This was an interesting and enjoyable listen. This debut album has impressed me enough to follow up on sequential releases. I enjoyed their punk style music along with some quirky lyrics.
This was an enjoyable listen grooves n rhythms thru out. Other than pop music and hair metal my knowledge of 80s music is limited particularly from England. Another group to delve into further from across the h e pond.
This is a great live album. Feels like you're right there in the club with him. Quality is mediocre but that's because of technology of the times. Short set but full of soul and energy.
Some great vocal gymnastics on this album. Beautiful of course is a masterpiece!! Christina has one of the most powerful and diverse vocals ever.
One of my favorite albums in my teenage years. Lord's organ playing on these songs is awesome and became one of my favorite instruments. Blackmore is awesome with his guitar playing. Ian Gillan on vocals one of rocks best frontmen. All hel together with a rhythm section of Paice on drums and Glover on bass. Plus one great sing after another. Space Truckin Highway Star and Smoke on the Water are highlights
She has a nice voice. Sweet but powerful. Definitely a chick album. Has some well written songs on it.
This British group was a very interesting listen. Filled with lush sounds that were big almost orchestral at times. Another British band to delve deeper into. I don't know why this group didn't gather some chart attention here in America. They were very successful in England.
What a fantastic sound experience this debut album was back in 1968. Not only were the Experience astounding musicians but Hendrix was a frontrunner in the recording process. Fantastic album with classic songs and jams. Voodoo Chile and All Along The Watchtower standout.
I enjoyed listening to this old school jazz. Miss Vaughn has a remarkable voice and is very much overlooked.
This was not what I expected considering all the hype about this artist when he came out. He has a good voice but too many songs sounded the same as far as the vocal delivery. Will have to listen ti another album he released.
The first of Bowie's Berlin Trilogy and probably his best collaboration with Brian Eno. Has the now huge hit Heroes and some nice instrumental songs. Musically very interesting lyrically minimalistic.
An excellent album with track after track of beautiful instrumentation. Don't give up features the wonderfully talented Kate Bush on vocals. The ecology song of Red Rain the playfulness of Sledgehammer opening the album. Big Time in the middle and the romantic In Your Eyes rounding it out. One of his best.
A fantastic album of folkiness and personal story. At the time and huge departure from his albums with the E Street Band. Dark depressing well written. Stark in it's musical nature. It was a sign of future creative albums along this genre but never matched.
This was a nice listen very relaxing. Reminds me of late night driving home music or what they call elevstor music. Lead singer has a nice voice.
A classic rock album. One of the best of all time. A classic rock anthem song with the title track. My favorite track Life in The Fast Lane along with some pretty ans some sad ballads. With the addition of Joe Walsh who brought an edgy and upbeat rock sound with his great guitar playing and some good songwriting.
This was a diversified album with nice beats rhythms and grooves. Pretty good for a 1st LP. Not my kind of music but it was surprisingly easy listening.
I enjoyed this listening to this album bring a fan of bosa nova. Rebel has a pleasant voice and the music was cool and hip.
A pleasing musical and lyrical soundscape with dark undertones. Collaboration with Brian Eno with Iggy Pop lyrical influences and the 1st album in the Berlin Trilogy. Very listenable and great piece of art deco style of the 70s.
Interesting psychedelic concept album. Very kool sound bites and backgrounds. Todd has a better voice then I remembered. Liked the oldies medley. Last song sounds like an Eagles cheer support song.
An excellent follow up to Court n Spark. Musically adventurous but not as popular but still reached 4th in the Billboard album charts. Filled with reflective memories and feminist viewpoints.
Definitely not my genre of music. Too repetitive musically n lyrically. I did find the songs at the end interesting Sinews Hand Over Fist and Bullet Train to Vegas.
This album started out repetitive and uninteresting but finished strong with some great drumming better lyrics and guitar work.
This was an interesting album to listen to. I'm surprised they didn't land higher in the charts. With only 3 studios releases I guess they were limited musical wise and couldn't breakout of punk style music.
This was an enjoyable listening experience while I relaxed in bed. Pretty depressing music for the most part. It's the best time to listen to this one. Will put you to sleep in a nutshell. But don't wait til the last song with the blaring horns.
This album was not very interesting.
Could easily be the best album of the 90s. This album brought rock back to life for me after the land of the lost 80s. After watching the video Enter Sandman on MTV I bought the album then backtracked before the release of Load. What this album offers is what the band was and where they were heading over the next 3 or 4 releases.
This album could of been very good if he just made it a double LP release instead of a triple. Some excellent songs on here but the third LP is very bare compared to the other 2. My Sweet Lord is excellent! Isn't It A Pity along with All Things must Pass are good compositions. Nice cover of If Not For You by Dylan.
This album makes my top 10 of all time. Listened to this in my mid teens and these songs really hit home to my heart. Adding orchestration to a few songs make the tracks flow into one another seamlessly and keep it diversly interesting. Heart of Gold I sang at karaoke as a duet. Great LP.
This was a relaxing enjoyable listen. Great vocals by Maxwell instrumentation is excellent. Love the sax work. Great LP for a relaxing romantic night with a loved one.
I like there music it's thought provoking but not in a disturbing way. The musical instrumentation is very good mellow which gives the song lyrics a surrealistic backdrop. Will listen to more if their albums in the future.
One of the best early soul blues singer's doing some classic songs from the era.
Interesting listen a little different from other punk bands of that era.
This album has a great concept to it that really appealed to the youth in the 70s. I found listening to the instrumentation to be exhilarating. I was never a fan of Neal Peart's voice but it improves after thus album. They showed great courage to stick with their musical concepts despite pressure from their record company to change it.
A group and album ahead of it's time. Both innovative and musically appealing. Driving home at midnight was never better with their wonderfully simplistic approach to making music.
This is an excellent album. Side one is timeless. This is the only 80s album I listened to on repeat. I like how they created a bigger luster sound then previous albums. I'm sure Lanois n Eno helped here. I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For......
This brought back early memories of a slew of Italian/American singers. Although Louis was one of the earliest with deep roots founded in New Orleans jazz. An interesting listen.
Did not find much to interest me here. It is well recorded and produced. Didn't care for his rap rhythm or his beats.
They picked a good band title. A couple decent songs some interesting drum n guitar work. Lead singer has some potential to be a real rock singer.
This album has a great single as an opening track. A couple other good songs but the rest is meh.
I enjoyed several songs on this album. She has a very pleading voice and localization style. The cuts I recommend are Bucky Done Gun Fure Fire a10 Dollar Galang Galang. Pretty impressive for a first release.
I think this album is very over rated. It's the same theme song after song about lost love. It's a shadow of previously released albums with the E Street Band. Very disappointing.
This music is so targeted to a certain group of people in our society and is not even good.
What an incredible album of songs inspiring hope and change. A great pop/folk song album. With several excellent song choices.
I was 15 when I bought this album and played it almost everyday. It helped me get through a difficult time in my life. I shared many of John's personal feelings and thoughts about life on this album. I will rate it much higher than most people for these reasons.
What a great collection of pop songs. A great transition album from the previous 2. All songs written by Lennon-McCartney. They would go on to bigger and more adventurous musical interludes.
These heavy metal groups sound very similar with an exception of 3 or 4. Not impressed with Pantera.
I really enjoyed this first time listen to Ozomatli. I love the mix of songs ranging from pop rap and Latin music themes. The added socio-political lyrics add depth and substance to their music. One song rapping defiance the next song ready to get up and dance-party.
They had a couple good songs on here. Nice sounds.
Somehow the Stooges and Iggy didn't make it onto my radar in my teenage years. Listening to them in retrospect I can feel the that basic rock n roll groove. Their guitarist sounds very good and of course Iggy is a great frontman. Way before their time and influential on that mid-late 70s punk rock scene in New York and London.
I enjoyed listening to this group while commuting o the train. Some songs have that Autobahn feel to them. It was also a pleasure listening to it at home relaxing.
I found this album surprisingly good but lacking in the variety department. It was a nice listen on a Sunday afternoon. She has a nice voice vert relaxing.
I very much enjoyed listening to this album. Fiona Apple is an exceptional songwriter both lyrically and in song structure. My favorite track was Like Honey. I'm really surprised she has only released 5 albums.
This album was just annoying. Don't listen to it while you are relaxing. They sound more like a dead bolt.
A decent LP for a an electronic dance album. I particularly like the finishing tracks.
What a beautiful she has and a unique vocal styling. Never knew that Sade was actually a group.
Although this is a solid effort by the duo side 2 has previously recorded material. Despite that Mrs. Robinson reached #1. Smooth harmonies and melodic sound track.
I liked the energy of this music. It was both interesting and relaxing at the same time. Being in French I couldn't understand the lyrics of course. But the singers voice was smooth and emotional.
Interesting album with some awesome arrangements and vocalizations.
A great album from the master of words.
I didn't find this very interesting but I did find it very long.
This was some good rock n roll music with some campiness to it. Siouxsie has a string rock voice and professional band behind her.
This was my first album listen from these artists and found them to have musical diversity. Interesting enough to explore earlier releases this being their 13th studio album.
This is a decent 2nd album highlighted by the cover of Proud Mary and the original Born On The Bayou. This album was a sign of great things to come.
This was a nice listen. I enjoyed the variety of moods I experienced listening to the ballads, love songs and rhythmic dance numbers. It took me back in time to the 90s when I was hanging out with Tony and Maria.
The master of the saxophone blowing out sheets of spiritual enlightenment. A must listen to broaden your horizons and to nourish your heart. ❤️
What a great album of songs leading seamlessly from one to another. An album that captures the times through its beautiful rhythyms reaching out through the sadness but hopeful conditions of 1970 America. Marvin Gaye is one of America's thoughtful and creative musical geniuses. ❤️
This is my 1st full album by The Cult and I am impressed. Good rock n roll. Guitar player is good. Well written songs and tight playing. Will have to explore more of their LPs.
This was a diverse interesting album and a 1st listen of Tricky for me. The female vocalist has a nice smooth delivery and I enjoyed the mostly relaxing nature of the album. Some good rap hip hop and pop tracks.
Well this man certainly flew under my radar. Some well written songs on this album. Relaxing thought provoking lyrics with great accompaniment. Will be listening more to Richard Hawley who shares his name with my brother's friend.
Some very enjoyable ballads of the old west. Marty has a very likable voice tone. With a good backup band and singers. Brings back memories of my late brother who passed on the 5th of this month.
A solid debut album from this artist. Thoughtful provocative and heartfelt lyrics lead the way. Not surprised that this album did very well throughout the world.
A solid debut effort by Lenny. A Kool mix of pop blues and rock. I like Lisa a little better though. LOL.
Thos is a great album with many hit songs and rock classics. What makes this album special is that it's the total package of concept lyricism musicianship engineering and arrangement of songs. Bowie's masterpiece!!
I have heard of this band but never listened to a full album. Interesting that their debut album is a live one. Some good hard rock and bluesy numbers. Particularly liked Starship and there is some good guitar playing throughout the set.
I really like this album. It's ahead of It's time. Great guitar work. You can hear The Doors influence on a couple songs.
A very good album by the Stones. Too big hits and several more interesting bluesy numbers. Charlie's drumming is superb and the backing vocals with the repetitive are original and seem to go on n on. Great vocals by Mick.
They have a unique sound on this LP which they created on their previous release. Musical depth and instrument variation delicer a open sonic sound. 4 solid songs defining future musical directions
This was an adventurous album in it's day and ELP were a true super group. Emerson is the best keyboardist in my opinion. Lake a guitar virtuoso and Palmer a fantastic drummer. Hardly any vocals on these tracks of beautiful and emotional music.
An excellent last album from an American icon who always stood up for and eased the burden of society's unfortunatem. Surprised how good his voice is considering his age and health condition. Some of my all time sad songs on here. God Bless Johnny Cash!!
I like the rhythm and beats on this album. Definitely some kool grooves and upbeat tempos.
Opening track is awesome. Some nice work on here making it a relaxing listen like those early 70s Canterbury prog rock groups.
An interesting listen that deserves further album looking into.
This could be the best debut album ever. It rocks from start to finish. Excellent quality musicianship engineering and production. This is still my "it's summer album". Brad Delp has one of the least talked about rock voices and deserves more notice.
This was a pretty good debut effort. You can hear that bluesy potential in her voice. We lost a potential superstar way before her time.
This is a very good album. It just goes by so fast one song after another well played produced and sung.
One of the greatest debut albums of all time not only for the musicianship and vocal delivery of the band. But for the fact they did it on their own without the need of a record company and got a recording contract from it and then international fame. Most songs on the album are or influenced by some great blues musicians resulting of listeners delving into these blues musicians catalogs.
Some good songs on here but man is this album depressing. The E Streeters get to shine a little more but that gloominrss pervades throughout the album.
A solid 3rd album release from a very underrated punk rock band. I really like their wild driven sound.
This was a relaxing listen noting their various influencers.
This was a relaxing listen looking forward to listening to their others.
Some interesting songs here that make this album innovative in it's time. Another band for future album listening.
A good debut album with that 3 chord punk sound but with the hint of sonic sound lushiness.
This is a surprisingly good album that shows how really good Big Brother & The Holding Company were. Janis really hits it on some cuts like Ball n Chain plus Summertime. The bonus tracks are not really a bonus they sound just okay at best.
A strong sophomore effort by The Experience. Some really good rhythm and blues numbers. A space song opener. Great playing and engineering by all.
A diverse musical approach of power driven music and minimalistic lyrical notings.
I enjoyed this record never knew he was such a success. I mean of course I heard of Sex n Drugs n Rock& Roll. Nice mix of music genres.
Not a whole lot going on here with this LP and group. Mostly noise. Although the lead singer has a nice soothing voice.
A nice collection of live songs from Van and his band. One of the better live albums I've listened to. Soul filled and emotionally delivered gems from his musical repertoire.
A diverse album of songs of American life and times of the past present and future. The Montana song is epic and one I can relate to. Some really beautiful lyricism with full orchestra support. Musically excellent.
Although a huge success I found this album to be really abrasive and that's after some songs were remixed. The subject matter on Cobains physical and mental health are unappealing. The bands musicianship is very good however. I did like All Apologies Rape Me and Heart-Shaped Box. Another unfortunate loss in the world of music.
Some fine music playing and singing on this album. I enjoyed listening to this on a relaxing afternoon.
Most of these songs are average except for Laugh Laugh but that was album making in their era looking to score the big hit single. For that they get a score of...
Optimal listening time at night relaxing and enjoying the deep instrumental soundscape they create.
I liked this album more than previous releases due to it's more personal nature and evolving musicality. The band showed it's growth and appreciation toward it's fan base.
Never listened to a Dolls album before just single cuts. It's a pretty good punk LP. Starts out strong but finishes a little weak.
This was a surprising listen to. I could hear the influences of psychedelic punk rock and that laid back sound from the 70s. This was an enjoyable sound experience.
A very good album starting off with 4 pop hits then settling in to some find grooves and beats. Not a Prince album fan except for Purple Rain but this one is boppin.
These guys are really good.
This album had an interesting concept. Very cool rap beats and grooves.
This was an interesting album with some unusual soundscapes and electronic instrumentation. I like the lead singers vocals and tone quality. Diverse and modern with some psychedelics.
A solid album effort with a great leadoff effort of That Lady. Solid covers of Listen to The Music, Don't Let Me Be Lonely Tonight and Summer Breeze. Great musical grooves beats n rhythms.
This was an interesting listen of a group I have heard of but never seemed to listen to. Some solid songs on here but also a lot of gimmicks going on.
A fantastic New Wave/Pop album with some great songs many released as singles. Debbie is a wonderful singer and the band is very tight. One of my favorite albums from this era.
This was a pretty good listen. I really liked Acetate Prophets
A great innovative album with some good funky rock n roll tunes.A great single Under The Bridge. Just a little too long.
I fail to see the interest in this music because it lacks musicality. It's just a constant force of banging your instrument. A song or 2 yes but a whole album of repetitive sound no. Thankfully they broke it up with a ballad. Snuff.
This isn't their best album there are a couple of standout numbers. Always liked some of their songs but not their albums.
Never heard of this band from England. They had a nice mix of sound genres some catchy others rock n rollin a bit with some Electronica mixed in.
I enjoyed listening to this album. A bit sad but easy listening on a Sunday morning. Good vocals and well written songs make this group's catalog worth exploring.
A very relaxing and enjoyable listen. A good album to listen to driving home after a night out or just relaxing at home having a beverage of your choice.
A solid debut solo album by Gabriel with a great song Solsbury Hill.
Got no joy out of this gangster rapper poetry. Too much anger and abuse.
Not a fan of this band. Didn't hear much I liked.
An interesting debut album filled with an abundance of short rock driven numbers. Refreshing after those boring long drawn out numbers of others. Reminds me of early rock n roll releses.
4 stars for innovating music in their time. Waterfalls is beautifully performed and so pleasing.
Some interesting rock music on this LP. Couldn't believe they had 21 songs on a debut.
I purchased this album when I was 15 with my bday money. I wore it out and purchased it again. Then bought it again in CD format. I was fascinated and enthralled with both the musicality and harmonizing vocals. It made me a Neil Young fan. I became fascinated with the pedal steel guitar. Our House was my American Dream which I was gratefully rewarded with.
This might be Bowie's finest album. The addition of Mike Garson to The Spiders lineup makes it unique to his previous albums. I liken it to his The Man Who Sold The World album when Mick Ronson became his guitarist. The songs are fresh poppy rocky and have an avante garde theme running thru them. The song sequence is near perfect.
A couple good songs on here. But this electronica rave music is really boring. The Brits are innovative rhough.
An interesting debut album by this Brit group. You can feel the influences from the 60s era. Well engineered and produced worth further listening time.
A good solid album debut by The Band with 4 or 5 strong song numbers with The Weight at the peak. The musicianship is excellent with great organ work and drumming. Multiple band members taking on the lead vocals.
Some very relaxing melodies with a few memorable highlights. Atmospheric sounds that relate well to the sing titles.
An interesting debut album by this trio. Edgier then her following albums and not as lyrical but I liked it better.
A solid album filled with soulful songs and bluesy numbers mixed with pop/rock sounds.
This was a very interesting album.
A solid album effort for England's Elvis. Accidents Will Happen, Oliver's Army and What's So Funny are excellent songs.
This is an excellent album withe several memorable tunes. The musicianship is superb. Songs sung well by the whole band.
An awesome followup to their Dark Side of The Moon album. Gilmour's guitar is exhilarating and Waters lyrics dripping with sarcasm and wanton pain. So good the 40 plus minutes go by like a daydream.
A solid debut album with 3 major songs on it getting radio play. Some insightful lyrics on the state of America in 1972. Definitely a collectors LP with a great cover.
This was an interesting listen. These women have some kool musical ideas and style. A catchy style that wouldn't have been popular at that time.
This is a surprisingly very good album by Willie stepping out from his traditional rebel cowboy mode but not as great as his successful sales in my opinion. His voice doesn't capture the timeless spirit of these great American standards.
A great jazz pianist. Was interested on the first couple of numbers but grew bored with it as it progressed. The piano was never one of my favorite instruments.
This was an interesting album. Very listenable to. Kool ez beats n rhythms. A concept rap album?
This was a very enjoyable listen. Some nice fusion music on some of the songs with others featuring those mad bongo drum rhythms.
6 single releases 5 making the top 5 on Billboard 100. What more can you say....
One of Tina's best records with a nice mix of originals and covers. A few songs charted high on the single lists.
Some classic songs of protest and drifting on this album.
A very good debut album by this band. Many songs 🎵 showcasing their talents with bigger things to come.
This was a relaxing listen and somewhat interesting with those unusual sound effects. Worth checking out some of their other stuff.
This album was just okay for me. Not as interesting as his other released albums.
Some nice music with a quality vocals by Jorge Ben Jor. Smooth rhythms and danceabke tunes.
Frank is a great singer and this album has some great songs with wonderful musucal arrangements. However the running theme of songs of lost, questioning and loneliness make it a special time listen.
There are few good songs on here. I feel this LP is over rated lacking in the musicality vein of previous efforts. It's too long for one thing. Some songs should of been left off and just release a single LP.
Common an apt crtique.
She had a big hit with Buffalo Dance the rest is just meh.
Classic soul single Let's Get It On and many good soul tunes.
A fantastic straight on rock n roll album. Song after song of high energy music. Johnson has one of the great rock voices ever.
Ray is timeless and classic. A great collection of songs.
A nice mixture of rsp and soul with some rock R n B thrown in.
This was a very interesting album. Janelle has a wonderful voice and she came up with a great theme for an album.
A wonderful song collection highlighting tango variations with instruments you wouldn't associate with such sensual music. For example accordion and xylophone
Mostly a mellow album with dark n depressing undertones.
An interesting album worth further listening to this group.
An excellent album filled with good blues tunes and rock n roll.
An enjoyable listen well written songs very good musicality and I found his voice easy to listen to. Smooth nice tone relaxing.
This was a very interesting album with rich dark overtones in Gothic styling. Vocals were very good and the instrumentation was sound.
Their greatest album and the beginning of heavy metal rock.
I enjoyed this album surprised by it's muscianship.
Solid album.
This was just okay.
A very good listening album full of laid back songs with smooth vocals. Never heard of Drake until about 4 years ago.
A nice listen. Heard of this guy but never listened to an album of his. Old times folk n blues songs with some bluegrass.
Some good rock songs on here
Tis was a disappointment
Some interesting songs on here
Just okay nothing special here.
An excellent 2nd album by the Master of Words.
Some nice rap on here. I like his smooth delivery.
This was a surprisingly good listen
Some say this is Zeppelins peak but I find some songs were just okay mostly the previous unreleased. They expanded their musical genre very nicely.
This was somewhat of a drag to listen to. Vocals were kind of boring. Not much going on musically.
Intersting album with a ritual tantric musical elements. Plenty of Darkside songs.
This is one of my all time favorite albums. Top 3. From the opening track that jumps out of the speakers and grabs you by the throat to the fantasy like lyrical atmosphere created by Greg Lake n Pete Sinfield. Fine musicianship by Fripp Giles n McDonald's multi instrumental virtuoso.
A cosmic concept album dealing with faith loss and want. It was an interesting listen.
An interesting listen from this trio. Love their energy output and the lead singers voice. They remind me a little of No Doubt and Gwen Stefani voice wise
This is a huge disappointment and a over load of songs with only 3 or 4 being better efforts.
This was a very good alternative/punk rock band. A couple big songs and some gritty rockers.
I was surprised how much I liked his rap style and the record is very well produced Pharrell certainly helped with that.
I enjoyed this group. Good song lyrics with humor. Great guitar sound. They have lots of energy.
An excellent double album by Sir Elton. It's diverse with pop hits rockin numbers and even some prog rock. His vocal range is at It's best.
This is a pretty good album with 3 or 4 stand out songs. However I could never understand their global appeal. I mean they are very talented but not outstanding.
This was an ez listening album with some noticeable songs on the back end.
An excellent rock/blues album. I feel it's their best album. 2 of their best rock numbers Bitch and Brown Sugar. A couple of real blues style songs. One of their best songs ever Can You Hear Me Knocking.
My favorite Beatles album with my favorite Beatles song-Norwegian Wood(This Bird Has Flown). One great song after another. A stellar group of singers musicians and especially lyricists.
