A Little Deeper by Ms. Dynamite
Aug 15 2025

I'm not a huge hip-hop guy but Ms. Dynamite's sound had some serious range. The beats were solid.

Gorillaz by Gorillaz
Aug 16 2025

What a terrific album. I need to spend more time with these guys.

At Newport 1960 by Muddy Waters
Aug 19 2025

I'm sure it's excellent, but the blues all sounds basically the same to me.

Raw Power by The Stooges
Aug 20 2025

Solid punk rock. Iggy's not a top 20 artist for me but probably top 100, and his work with the Stooges can be heard through the decades in countless other acts. Love this.

Imagine by John Lennon
Aug 21 2025

Ten years ago I might have listened to this, seeking to understand the genius behind it. Today I find it not really noteworthy, not really outside the zeitgeist of its time. Mere mortals, all of us.

Whatever by Aimee Mann
Aug 22 2025

Meh. Fine but boring.

Idlewild by Everything But The Girl
Aug 25 2025

I did not enjoy. Another that was musically interesting but not something I enjoyed at all. Skipped through the album. Felt like easy listening music.

Arrival by ABBA
Aug 26 2025

What a lovely visit to the lands of disco. How can you not love ABBA?

B-52's by The B-52's
Aug 27 2025

I really enjoy the B-52's, and this was a delightful listen. I'm starting to hate that there are only 5 stars on this rating scale and I'm going to have to start assigning a meaning to each star because this isn't an album I already have or will add into my standard rotation, but I definitely would not mind a few of these songs popping up in my playlists.

All Mod Cons by The Jam
Aug 28 2025

Fair but straightforward. Wouldn't turn it off but it doesn't turn me on.

The Who Sell Out by The Who
Aug 29 2025

Solid rock with psychedelic undertones. Enjoyed it but not adding it to my playlists.

The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett
Aug 30 2025

Started out interesting but got boring after a while.

Bookends by Simon & Garfunkel
Sep 06 2025

I like Simon & Garfunkel quite a bit, and this album was a pleasant listen. Many of the songs, I knew and loved.

Aqualung by Jethro Tull
Sep 07 2025

Only got part way through. It's fine. Can kinda hear the 60s folk influence. Nice riff on Aqualung itself.

Legalize It by Peter Tosh
Sep 08 2025

I was really not in the right space to appreciate this album, but I'm not a big fan of reggae at my best. More than a song or two and I need something different.

Nevermind by Nirvana
Sep 09 2025

Love this album. Nirvana changed post punk to mainstream, something I will never forgive them for, but that could not have happened if they weren't so damn good.

Post Orgasmic Chill by Skunk Anansie
Sep 10 2025

I'm not even sure if I've ever heard of these guys but wow what a glorious surprise. Seems like something I need to get a little more familiar with.
