Some very fun instrumental jazz. Sounds like pure, distilled spirit of the 50s. The playing is top tier, and I enjoy hearing it.

Musically solid mix of electronic rock and psychedelia, but nothing too outstanding. I didn't really vibe with it, but it wasn't offensive either.

Solid blues rock album with strong vocals. Lots of emotion in Joplin's voice. This is probably the best blues rock album I have ever heard.

High-quality 70s hard rock album with strong guitar harmonies and vocals. There is a clear line from this to NWOBHM bands like Iron Maiden, Saxon, and Diamond Head, as well as many 80s hard rock bands such as Motley Crue and GNR.

A straight 60s pop album with lots of strings, horns, and crooner vocals. I don't think this is a great album, especially coming from the King of Rock and Roll, but it's not offensive(except for the overbearing horns on a couple tracks.) I don't think this should be on a list of 1001 albums to hear before I die.

I'm not that into hip hop, but this album is definitely pretty enjoyable. I like the flow of the songs and Hill's singing is very much welcomed as a counterpoint to the rapping. In turn, I think this is a nice introduction to rap for me. However, the outros of the songs were a bit long and annoying.

A bunch of quality slow jams. This album is very well put together musically, and Gaye's voice is both soothing and emotional. The album doesn't overstay its welcome, either, clocking in at a rather lean 31 minutes.

This album sounds like every 90s alt-rock one hit wonder on rock radio. It isn't bad or grating, but kinda boring. The songs are very short, with only the Mrs. Robinson cover being over 3 minutes. This is good, because there's not much of note here. It's solid, but fails to stand out for anything.

A nice 60s rock concept album. The songs are all high quality, and for the most part enjoyable. The harmonies and singing are quite pleasing, and the instrumentals are pretty good.

This album is more energetic than I expected from Bob Dylan. His vocals suck ass, and the faster numbers really make this clear. The instrumentals aren't mind-blowing, but the songs are very enjoyable. Desolation Row is way too long, though.

Some fairly enjoyable 80s pop. The songs are all solid, and the vocals are decent. However, there's not much passion in the arrangements. The songs are quite processed, which makes sense when you consider the type of music.

Rather generic 60s folk rock with a hint of country. Not much of note here, except for the last track being a shift in style to a more psychedelic sound.

This album is some pretty interesting electronic music. The vocals are great, and the songs are very good chill music. Some songs have a definite hip hop influence to them, especially towards the end of the album. In short, this album has a nice vibe that I enjoy.

An electronic album with clear hip hop influences. This has a nice vibe to it that I liked, and it has notable stylistic variation between the tracks, which is a plus. Some tracks drag on too long, though. The Light My Fire cover is dog shite.

Very sonically interesting rock album. Songs tend to start slow before exploding into grungy dissonance. The vocals mirror this by being softly spoken word on the quieter parts and loud singing on the louder parts.

Some light country-tinged pop rock. The songs are not bad, but they are rather boring. I wanted a cool metal album to be my birthday album, but I got this grocery store pop album instead.

Some rather calm folk music. Nowhere near as loud as Highway 61 Revisited, which makes Dylan's vocals more palatable. Otherwise, the songs are as good as ever, and the lyrics are top notch as always.

This is a rather soft acoustic pop album with pleasing vocals and arrangements. The lyrics have a healthy bit of social commentary, but are sugar coated with good pop hooks and soft acoustic guitar.

This album is just generic new wave. There is absolutely nothing notable here, except for the singer sounding like John Lydon on a couple tracks. He then proceeds to sound like generic new wave singer #653 on the rest of the album.

A great post punk album with many strong tracks. Knopfler's vocal style suits the sound quite well, and "Money for Nothing" is iconic for a reason. The other songs are all bangers, too.

A very weird garage rock album. I didn't hate this, aside from the opening screams, but I don't know that I liked it, either. The songs are short and kind of pass by you, and the vocals are very garagey. Either way, this isn't blues music.

Some neat instrumental sitar music. This album is a vibe, and a nice relaxing one. The sitar covers of popular songs are certainly novel, and the lengthier pieces feel classical in composition and playing.

Some fairly entertaining British rap. Not much to actually care about here, but the arrangements are good.

Some very fun instrumental jazz. Sounds like pure, distilled spirit of the 50s. The playing is top tier, and I enjoy hearing it.

A nice folk-rock album. Full of beautiful, dramatic songs with great vocals and instrumentals.

Some pretty cool pop punk. For the most part, the tracks outside of the hits are just solid, but the hits are great. The drumming is great, and the guitars and vocals serve the songs well.

Some really good socially conscious hip hop. The songs all have great beats and flow, and the lyrics are good. I enjoy the samples and the wide variety of voices on display.

The musicianship here is solid but not outstanding, which is a problem when your album has one original song. Why did I need to listen to this over the many albums snubbed that were more deserving of a spot? The one original song, "Tell Me" was rather meh.

Some rather vapid soft rock. Heavy use of piano interspersed with some guitar and organ. Nothing here really feels that good or interesting, it's just meh.

This wasn't the funky Stevie I was expecting, for the most part, but rather a lot of ballads. I don't know how I feel about those ballads. The one undeniably good thing, here, are his vocals.

This gives me one question: how the fuck did we go from this to the modern radio dog shit that we all call country nowadays? The songs are sung with talent and passion, something sorely lacking in modern country. They all have very down to earth lyrics retelling tales of life in America.

This isn't the funky disco music most think of when they think of the Bee Gees. Instead, it's some rather vapid 60s pop/rock. Pretty boring album without much of note. Some songs veer towards country, others are orchestral chamber pop.

I don't have much to say about this except that it's competent but boring. I'm pretty sure I don't need to hear grocery store music like this before I die.
