The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

5/5

Went in expecting another overrated album, but came out pleasantly surprised.

Fred Neil

5/5

Not something I would have listened to otherwise, but I'm glad I did. The last Raga is simply lovely

A Nod Is As Good As A Wink To A Blind Horse

Faces

3/5

Enjoyable when listening to it, but not something that gives you an urge to repeatedly come back to. Stay With Me is a great song but the album as a whole is not mindblowing. Still, it was a fun listen

Raising Hell

Run-D.M.C.

3/5

Good album. Raising Hell is a great song. The album might be historically significant, but it failed to blow my mind. Enjoyable while it lasted, but not gonna be a favourite

Transformer

Lou Reed

3/5

Not what I'd usually listen to or enjoy much, but good album within its genre

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme

Simon & Garfunkel

5/5

One of the best albums I've listened to so far. Straight to the favourites folder.

Tommy

The Who

4/5

Brownie points for being the first rock opera, but not as good as Who's Next

The Bends

Radiohead

5/5

One of my favourite albums of all time. Obvious 5 stars

The Atomic Mr Basie

Count Basie & His Orchestra

4/5

A good album. Nothing special, but still fun to listen

With The Beatles

Beatles

4/5

Great album. Had its highs and lows, but overall was fun to listen to. Can see myself coming back

A Wizard, A True Star

Todd Rundgren

4/5

Fun album but absurdly long. Yeah, that's all I have to say.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

5/5

Went in expecting another overrated album, but came out pleasantly surprised.

Caetano Veloso

2/5

I wanted to like it, but it failed to meet my expectations. Not an outright bad album, just something I'll never listen to again.

Trout Mask Replica

Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band

2/5

Simply not for me. Some parts were relatively enjoyable, but the moment you begin to ease in, a cacophony of incoherent noises disturb your peace. The polyrhythms and polytones and all that wankfest doesn't justify calling this music. Its only saving grace is the creative risk it took - pity points for that.

Heroes

David Bowie

5/5

Haven't listened to the rest of the Berlin Trilogy yet, but so far so good. Brilliant album with great production (but that is to be expected with almost any Bowie album). PS: The Secret Life Of Arabia is very underappreciated as a song, even though it does feel a bit out of place in the album.

OK Computer

Radiohead

5/5

Two Radiohead albums in a week? What an absolute treat! Being one of my favourite albums of all time, this one is a no brainer. Every track is great and fits (even Fitter Happier). A perfect album for any time in my opinion; I don't get why people say it's depressing. Whiny? Yes. Depressing? No, quite the opposite in reality. PS: Contrary to popular opinion, I think Climbing Up The Walls is one of the best tracks on the album, if not the best.

Five Leaves Left

Nick Drake

3/5

I didn't like it first listen, but it grew on me on the second listen. I have a feeling I'll come to love it in time. At the moment, I don't think I can give it anything more than three stars.

Hard Again

Muddy Waters

5/5

Really fun album. Nothing groundbreaking, but sometimes you just got to have fun and that's all that matters. Isn't something I'd usually listen to, so I'm glad I did.

Pearl

Janis Joplin

5/5

Fun album. Talented singer but sometimes it felt like she was doing too much. The band is incredible. I kinda wish the band continued making music.

Ágætis Byrjun

Sigur Rós

5/5

If the Aurora Borealis had a soundtrack, this would be it

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

3/5

Kinda meh. The album is alright but I am not a huge fan of punk rock. I like the message but the music isn't anything mind blowing.

Feast of Wire

Calexico

5/5

Blew my expectations out of the water. I kinda wish there were more tracks with vocals on it though. Apart from that, no complaints.

Paul Simon

3/5

Kinda meh compared to his work with Garfunkel.

Goodbye And Hello

Tim Buckley

4/5

A couple of great tracks and great vocals. I like Jeff's work more, but you can tell that Jeff has taken some inspiration from Tim's vocals. A pity Tim left him at such a young age. A solid Dream Brother/10

My Generation

The Who

3/5

It's their debut album and it shows. Out of their albums I've already listened to, Who's Next and Tommy are much better than this one. Not bad, just bang average

Common

5/5

Neither do I listen to a lot of hip-hop in general nor do I have a PhD in Mathematics, but man, this is good. Incredible production and great rapping. Made my day

AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted

Ice Cube

2/5

Real good flow. That's about the only good thing I can say about this album. It started out fun, but got old real quick. Half the songs sound the same. I don't even want to address the lyrics on some tracks or Ice's hypocrisy. I had high hopes as it is considered a classic, but it failed to impress and that's going to hurt the rating.

Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite

Maxwell

4/5

Made me get back with my Ex. Lost my 3125 day No fap challenge streak. Bankrupted myself paying child support. On the bright side, atleast I didn't get it in November.

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

4/5

I'm not a robot ✅️

Siamese Dream

The Smashing Pumpkins

5/5

Easy 5 stars. Was already a favourite
