Chirping Crickets

Buddy Holly & The Crickets

4/5

A delight. Maybe Baby is one of most adorable songs in the world.

Third

Portishead

3/5

Enjoyed it but felt a bit dated. Not as timeless as their bigger hit.numb right?

Thriller

Michael Jackson

5/5

Absolutely incredible prodction. Every song is a masterpiece. There were two lesser known songs for me Baby Be Mine and Human Nature, which are fairly forgettable given the sheer power of the other tracks. The song with Paul McCartney is pretty dumb, but the silliness is too charming not to sing along.

At San Quentin

Johnny Cash

3/5

I really appreciate the storytelling, but it all fell a bit flatter than I remembered hearing. Maybe because I was recalling at Folsom. The presence of hard censoring bleeps was disappointing but also a capsule to the time. Cash is incredible, but I'd rather pick up folsom

Frank

Amy Winehouse

2/5

Not really my style. I find it fairly boring without much to distinguish songs. I understand the talent, but it doesn't speak to me.

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

Haunting and raw. I'll try this on a long drive tomorrow.

The Low End Theory

A Tribe Called Quest

4/5

Led Zeppelin

5/5

The Who Sell Out

The Who

3/5

There's something about the production that really makes these songs more abrasive. I truly enjoyed the silliness and skill across them all.

Hot Fuss

The Killers

3/5

Raising Hell

Run-D.M.C.

4/5

Sheer fun and pump me up jams.

Fear Of Music

Talking Heads

5/5

I've always liked this "worldy" album from the Talking Heads. Every song slaps.

Surf's Up

The Beach Boys

4/5

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

3/5

American Pie

Don McLean

3/5

The United States Of America

3/5

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Wild horses slaps. Otherwise fairly fine blues-driven rock, which has a fairly predictable formula. Likely very influential. Sister Morphine has got some legs. But to be clear. This is an epitome of the rolling stone aesthetic, dripping with their style, and certainly raw musicality. I wouldn't pick it up to listen to, but I cannot dispute its importance.

The Message

Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five

3/5

Great handful of songs, but more uneven or even dull for stretches. Very influential

Different Class

Pulp

3/5

Birth Of The Cool

Miles Davis

5/5

My Generation

The Who

4/5

Slippery When Wet

Bon Jovi

2/5

Synchronicity

The Police

4/5

Hounds Of Love

Kate Bush

4/5

She rips. I don't care for the jig, but HERE I GO

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

5/5

69 Love Songs

The Magnetic Fields

4/5

Nixon

Lambchop

2/5

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

4/5

Electric

The Cult

3/5

Machine Gun Etiquette

The Damned

5/5

How have I not loved and biked and waltzed to this album? What an incredible treat? Gimme that organ solo on "I Just Can't Be Happy Today" everyday, and I will be happy everyday, sorry boiz. Holy smokes!

Blunderbuss

Jack White

2/5

I was honestly expected a lot more for a Jack White album on this list. Compared to White Stripe albums, this wa bit more of a snooze. I appreciate this face of Mr White, but it just didn't sit with me.

KE*A*H** (Psalm 69)

Ministry

4/5

This rips.

Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor

Lupe Fiasco

4/5

The Cars

5/5

Nilsson Schmilsson

Harry Nilsson
