Big Brother & The Holding Company

4/5

Cheap Thrills sounds like a band barely holding it together and that’s the magic. Joplin pours out every ounce of herself, and the imperfections are what make it unforgettable.

Either Or

Elliott Smith

3/5

It’s not perfect, but maybe that’s the point. The songs feel fragile and intimate, like you’re overhearing something private

Led Zeppelin

4/5

Blows me away this was 1969 , every guitar slide, every crack in Plant’s voice, every Bonham stomp still feels alive.

Station To Station

David Bowie

5/5

Cold and distant, but there’s a pull to it, loneliness made strange and magnetic.

Natty Dread

Bob Marley & The Wailers

5/5

Natty Dread balances sorrow and celebration, survival and song. We honor “No Woman, No Cry,” but we can’t overlook the defiant power of “Rebel Music

The Score

Fugees

3/5

When The Score was released I was in high school, and it felt like an explosion of cultures and sounds all at once. Growing up in a beach town, Marley was always the soundtrack, and hearing the Fugees bring something so new to something so familiar, it opened everything up in a whole new way.

Axis: Bold As Love

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

Hendrix showing us he’s more than just wild solos, it’s this trippy, soulful, tender and explosive. “Little Wing” feel almost fragile, while “Bold As Love” chaos in the best way. It’s like stepping into his head and seeing all the colors swirl.

Van Halen
