Some interesting songs but most turned into jam band drivel.
Terminally 80s 90s. Not a lot of standouts but nice listening.
All the energy and passion. What would it have been like to be in that concert.
Definitely talking heads. Good for five minutes but I don’t want a whole album of it.
That 808 drum early 90s German hip hop kinda sound? Not for me.
I like the honky tonk vibes but a lot of the songs are meh
Fancy. Kind of reminded me of daft punk?
Great black pride celebration album. Would listen again.
Decent but generic hipster music. Not bad listening.
Rap caviar. Some good writing but a lot of it stated to sound the same after Al while.
The band is so good. And some really classic songs. The weight never gets old. And I shall be released. Chef’s kiss.
Very good! Not a lot of songs but solid ones.
Soft rock from the 80s. Not bad for background music.
Solid classic rock. Some familiar, a lot new to me.
Great classic metal album!
One of the better early 90s hip-hop albums I’ve heard. More sophisticated than some and had a lot of social justice themes.
EW&F have so much energy and great horns. Fun album
Snoop really did change the game. Such a good album
Maybe as good as Paranoid. Great balance of loud rock and quiet, more psychedelic songs like Changes.
Not bad. But kind of sounds like off brand oasis. Not a lot of notable songs.
That soft hipster sound combined with a country twang and trap.
A lot like Don McLean but less catchy. A happy hippy album though.
Crazy good songs on this album. Two or threes others were insufferably long but for the most part, amazing album.
Better than most 80s country. I like the song fearless heart.
This kind of music has very limited applications. I can’t understand how many anyone can listen to a whole album of it. Every song sounds the same.
Solid album. Pretty 80s though. The Smiths have a much softer sound than I imagined.
Great country album. Good lyrics.
A great album all the way around
Good, punkish but not in an annoying way.
How come so much Stevie Wonder sounds like Christmas Pop?
Fun and funny. Punk that actually requires some talent.
Enjoyable. Had his hits and some societal commentary.
I’m glad to get to know Thin Lizzy better but why is this on this list? It’s a very mediocre live album.
Guess I never listened to a lot of Spirit. Sounds like a cheap version of three dog night or Emerson lake Palmer or something like that.
Some songs really long and repetitious. But good sound.
I guess what makes this album so good is how the songs seemly bleed into one another. I do wish there were fewer shrill sounds in this album. Makes it hard to listen to.
This is a spoken word album with ambient sounds in the background. I think it was trying to tell a story, but I couldn’t really follow it. The voice drone on and on like the sounds in the background. I’d like to give it another try while reading the words. Three stars for at least sounding creative.
The Beatles really exemplify the fact that just because you’re the first to do something doesn’t make you the best.
Fantastic album! Every song is a banger and the arrangements are so well done.
This was too long to finish in one day but it was interesting and good in the right mood. Lots of it felt like it was from a movie score.
I like the piano and orchestration. Some cool sounding songs. Glad to know more Tori Amos.
There’s some bops (ha) on this one. Good for punk.
This was pretty good. I expected more energy though.
Ugh. White guy blues. I stopped half way though. Apparently it wasn’t too late.
This really shows off the range that the beastie boys have. Very good album.
Amazing writing and unique voice.
Pretty good for an instrumental album. But it’s still an instrumental album.
I liked this a lot more than I thought! Very accessible even not knowing the language.
I don’t understand why this is on a list of greatest albums. This album is notable because of how mediocre it is. It’s only interesting because it’s before Black Sabbath found their sound later that year with the paranoid album. Why is this on this list?
Every song was okay for the first quarter then they just started shredding on the guitars for WAYYY too long. At least the album was short.
Smooth and jazzy, cool and classic. This was a great thing to listen to on a chill morning.
Classic beach boys. This was on my best albums list too.
Fun album. Saturated with funk.
Mariah Carey doesn’t do much for me because it is sappy and not very memorable,but I suppose this album had some hints of late 90s nostalgia.
Brit rock with a little bit of variety. Hadn’t ever heard of this band before.
Love this album. Smooth dark and sexy.
Love this album. Timeless sounding rock.
Not going to win any prizes in lyricism but it’s a fun album with a variety of sounds.
Interesting avant-garde pop. Only four songs but they’re each 20 minutes long. I liked discovering this guy and related artists like U-she.
I really like this album! Very complex and creative and lots of music that I didn’t know I know.
I did not expect to like this album because sometime Hendrix is too much guitar squiggle but it was really good!
Like most people I didn’t know this past the exorcist and pure moods. It was really an interesting listen. Lots of variety and dynamic energy.
A lot of people say Clapton is a good guitarist and that may be technically true. But all his music sounds like three drunk alley cats in a fight. The last two songs were okay.
A little more tame than Beck’s earlier stuff. Some catchy songs though.
I didn’t understand the words but it’s got lots of songs with great sounds.
I like the theatricality of Björk
It’s a good album. I grew up on it.
Can’t believe I’ve never listened to this whole album. Not AS good as his other but still it’s Paul Simon.
I don’t know why Elliot Smith is so hard to get into.
It’s hard to listen to a whole album of 80s hip hop but there’s lots of good songs including the collaboration with Aerosmith.
Great breakout album. Really set the pace for the Gorillaz’ original sounds.
Starts off strong and has lots of good songs.
So many good songs to sing a long to! A bit heavy on the saxophone though.
Through all the nostalgia it’s easy to forget that Green Day makes such garbage music until you have to listen to an entire album.
I didn’t realize the doors did this much bluesy sound. But the other parts vibe pretty good. I’m always floored by what a bad lyricist he was.
There were a couple of good songs on this album but most of it was just noisy punk.
What a crazy and dark album! I really liked it. It reminded me of a reimagined old country album.
How can so many radio hits make up such a good concept album??
I never could find anything about this album. Only a Spotify playlist. I’m not sure how to rank an album that isn’t an album.
Pretty good for Brit punk. Some songs listenable. London calling is better.
Never heard of him. Kinda hippie and kinda jazzy? Kinda unremarkable.
This is a really sappy album. Some songs are fine (but bland) and some are downright annoying. I wish such a cool band name had been used on a better band.
I had never heard of the bees, but this is a very good album. Lots of variety.
The “intro” song was the best of the album. The music here isn’t bad but it’s just not very exciting rap.
This is a beautiful and haunting farewell album. Cohenbis such a goat.
Part punk, ska, metal. Some social commentary. An interesting one time listen.
Decent singer songwriter stuff but didn’t really keep my attention on this one listen.
Great album. Beautiful and creative.
Very dynamic. Enjoy the brass. Vocals are kinda busy.
Very creative. Scottish but with a lot of eastern influence.
It’s cool. It’s funny. It’s sweet. It’s got variety. And it rocks.
Great songs and you can see a bridge between rock n roll and metal.
Did not expect to like this one! Fun lyrics, hard rock and beautiful instrumentals. One song was a really bad recording of a live song but other than that, solid album.
Very chill album. Decent variety.
Lots of good songs and harmonies.
I thought this two disk album was super long but they had the same 12 songs re-recorded about 5 different ways. I don’t know that the songs were strong enough to listen to that many times.
I just don’t think there’s a better pairing than Fitz and Gershwin.
Enjoyed this mostly instrumental sound album. Creative and chill. Good for a morning commute.
I usually like Fleetwood Mac. I just couldn’t get into this album. Kinda bland.
Not for me all the time but love the harmonies and there’s some solid songs.
Good album full of metal and rock n roll. There was even a musical number from west side story.
45 min album with 4 songs! Wouldn’t listen to this kind of music all the time but enjoyed the soul.
I liked their later stuff more but I’m sure this was a completely new sounds in 87.
The least annoying Beatles album I’ve heard.
And hello goodbye Tim Buckley seemed like he was pretending to be a folk singer. In this album, it seems like he is pretending to be a blue singer. Many of the songs just turn into him hollering or jabbering. The Hong Kong song was okay.
I’m glad there are people who enjoy listening to acid jazz. But I’m not really one of them. After the first few minutes of each song I kinda started to get irritated.
First off, I couldn’t find this album anywhere. Best I could find were playlists people had assembled. So I don’t know how much like the original album it is. Second, I’ve listened to a fair amount of Beefheart but not this one. This one seemed like it was intentionally obnoxious.
I didn’t recognize most of these songs, but it was undeniably ABBA.
This album got better and better as it went along. Most of the songs moved into the next seamlessly.
This would have been a good album if it had been instrumental and cut the sax. As it was the saxophone was irritating and the vocals didn’t add much.
Nina Simone has all the passion. No one else has passion because she has it all. Every song is great on this album. My one complaint is that some of the songs fade out so abruptly it’s jolting.
This is better than the other sonic youth album I heard. This one is way less shrill and screechy.
I think blur is some high quality Brit rock. While not all the songs on this album are memorable it’s a smooth list almost the whole way through.
I only know The Bee Gees as disco kings so this album of songs that sound like Beatles b-sides was a surprise. I enjoyed the strings and the vocal harmonies.
Pleasant listening. Very calming.
Albums like this seem to be an evolutionary step of hip hop. I like the scripted tracks sprinkled in.
A huge variety of instruments here (although an excessive amount of tenor sax). I bet this would have been a heck of a live concert back in the day— lots of energy.
Must be one of the top break up albums of all time. All the soul. Also love the cover of Lovesong.
This album gets better as it goes on. There some good instrumentals. Still, a little early 90s hip hop goes a long way.
Muddy Waters is classic. Even though it was a live album it was fun to listen to.
Feels like a cross between new wave and grunge. A lot of sameness though.
Sappy and 90s but good listening.
