Fear Of A Black Planet

3/5

Pretty solid. Loved the energy behind it. Goes without saying that this album was not made for a 54 year old white guy. I am ok with that.

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

All Ratings

AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted

Ice Cube

3/5

A little harsh for my taste. I generally don’t listen to music that I couldn’t play with my mother in the room. Still with listen.

Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan

4/5

I can listen to this album a lot. I the same sense it doesn’t move the needle for me. All songs are good but no song grabs my attention. Good background music.

Rumours

Fleetwood Mac

4/5

You forget just how good this album is. Every song stands up. Of course Stevie Nick’s voice is iconic.

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

2/5

Nothing to it for me. May be one of those acquired tastes. I have always heard about the Smiths and was interested to listen. Did nothing for me.

Dummy

Portishead

3/5

Pleasant but really the same song over and over again.

Ramones

4/5

Loved this album. I knew the band but didn’t realize how good they were.

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

1/5

I didn't like this one at all. Just kind of listened to it to get through it. Maybe it was the lead singer's voice. Just really couldn't find a song that I enjoyed.

The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars

David Bowie

4/5

I generally love every David Bowie song. I have not listened to this particular album in the past but loved it just as I expected. When it came up I was genuinely excited. He just brings the perfect energy. I hesitate to give this a 5 though because I know he has more gems.

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

4/5

Surprisingly good. I thought this would be almost country southern rock. But I was amused with this album. I am going to listen to it again soon,

White Ladder

David Gray

2/5

Meh

1984

Van Halen

5/5

This album is an absolute banger to me. Reminds me of my teenage years. Also, every song is good, not a bad one in the bunch. A+

Bitches Brew

Miles Davis

2/5

I need lyrics. Struggled to get through this one.

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

3/5

Pretty solid. Loved the energy behind it. Goes without saying that this album was not made for a 54 year old white guy. I am ok with that.

The Bends

Radiohead

2/5

Not for me…depressing.

You're Living All Over Me

Dinosaur Jr.

2/5

No thank you. Just feels like this album brings in a cold storm front and makes it rain for days….and not in a good way. Just too heavy for me.

Bandwagonesque

Teenage Fanclub

2/5

Nope. Not for me. I struggled through this one.

Dirty

Sonic Youth

3/5

I liked some of the songs. Lately all the music I have listened to has been heavy/sad. I prefer upbeat rhythm even if the lyrics have sad message. Still dint hate it.

A Love Supreme

John Coltrane

2/5

Great music, I like lyrics. Not for me.

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

2/5

I am starting to think that it’s me. This is a fine album but got old at the end. Some really enjoyable songs but not something I would say I need to investigate further. I was trying to decide how somebody would dance to this?

Violent Femmes

4/5

I really like the Violent Femmes. They keep me interested. I have been a run of subpar music for me was glad to get to an album where I was not just trying to get to the end. I remember this music growing up, not sure why I never owned the record.

Paranoid

Black Sabbath

4/5

Really good. I enjoyed this from front to back.

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

3/5

Surprisingly good for instrumental.

Architecture And Morality

Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark

3/5

Not my kind of music. Still I can see the draw.

In Our Heads

Hot Chip

2/5

I guess it is ok, just not my favorite type of music.

Band On The Run

Paul McCartney and Wings

3/5

I have heard this album a lot. It’s ok and everyone loves Paul Mcartney. But two songs that I really like. The others are just ok.

New York Dolls

3/5

This was fun, fit my mood. Can’t say anything but this is what punk rock should be.

Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea

PJ Harvey

3/5

I liked it. Will definitely investigate more.

Slippery When Wet

Bon Jovi

3/5

Brought back a lot of memories. There is some good shit in here. Still I think the genius of Bon Jovi was marketing. They just knew how to make hit songs and promote them. Hello to all my friends that loved hair bands. I am looking at you Ray Madonna!

Sail Away

Randy Newman

3/5

This was nice, familiar, relatable.
