Rock 'N Soul

Solomon Burke

2/5

Nice classic rock and roll with a voice full of soul - the first few tracks really stand out to me, very listenable - the middle / last chunk kinda blended together to me - I'd give it a 2.5 / 5 if I could.

Kilimanjaro

The Teardrop Explodes

2/5

Pretty standard sounding stuff for the Brit Pop, I actually don't mind this genre but a lot of these didn't stand out too much to me.

Imperial Bedroom

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

3/5

L'Eau Rouge

The Young Gods

1/5

I actually didn't mind the instruments themselves, but the lyrics / singing were super off-putting (not because of being in French but because of the way he sings).

If I Could Only Remember My Name

David Crosby

2/5

2.5 - kinda slow, no songs really stand out to me, but not horrible - expected a little more from all the names attached to this production

Chore of Enchantment

Giant Sand

2/5

kinda slow / meandering - not a big fan of "guy talking" as the "singing"

2/5

Eh, just cause Bowie helped produce it - doesn't mean I have to like it

Ágætis Byrjun

Sigur Rós

4/5

Unexpectedly a big vibe - really mellow at times, but some cool ambiance and great piano throughout.

2/5

A Night At The Opera

Queen

5/5

If this album were just Bohemian Rhapsody - it would still be 5/5 - but fortunately it's hit after hit front to back, absolute perfection

4/5

A little too long - but some great tracks throughout

2/5

A couple tracks throughout that I liked a bit, but for the most part didn't enjoy a lot of the tracks - not a fan of Mr. Cave's voice - great album art though!

All Things Must Pass

George Harrison

4/5

Very good - a little long, but still great stuff

Headquarters

The Monkees

2/5

Monke

Talvin Singh

2/5

I liked some of the more ambient tracks, but the vocal tracks were not OK

Autobahn

Kraftwerk

3/5

I liked all the non "Autobahn" tracks - but that one just didn't jive with me, too long / slow, and unfortunately that takes up the majority of this album.

Trout Mask Replica

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band

2/5

It might be a masterpiece, or it might be one of the most abrasive albums I've ever heard - not easy on the ears: but there's undeniably something going on here.

Franz Ferdinand

4/5

Mostly all fire tracks - a few that are a bit too repetitive, but for the most part a great listen

The Joshua Tree

2/5

I still haven't found what I'm looking for (in this album) - I know it's a masterpiece, I know it's perfect, but every time I listen I just feel it's very very slow, U2 gets 2 from me

Phaedra

Tangerine Dream

4/5

Super moody / ambient tracks - very groovy

Cut

The Slits

2/5

It's interesting, to say the least... I liked their cover of "I heard it from the grapevine", but outside of that the rest is just okay.

Pink Moon

Nick Drake

4/5

Abstract cover, super chill jams, I don't know why but it really did resonate with me; definitely does not sound like it's from 1972.
