All Things Must Pass

George Harrison

4/5

two of the songs sounded like james bond themes, but this is really just further proof of the range of the Beatles. Certainly excellent, but a little too much in here without cohesion to be 5 stars.

Led Zeppelin

4/5

The origin of the sound. I’ve listened to IV many times before, so I don’t know if it’s the same level for me yet, but definitely very good.

3 + 3

The Isley Brothers

5/5

The smoothest album ever. Unbelievable how good this album is. The piano, the vocals, the parts are amazing and the sum is even better.

Amnesiac

Radiohead

4/5

Alternating between fever dream and the revolution, 70/30 split.

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

3/5

First half jaunty, idyllic locomotive heist, second half music that sounds like peripheral vision.

Nebraska

Bruce Springsteen

4/5

Harmonica is the most American instrument, overlayed by a phenomenal storyteller.

Elephant Mountain

The Youngbloods

3/5

Temu beatles are still pretty decent.

Truth

Jeff Beck

4/5

A blues singer’s soul trapped in a rock star’s life

Heroes

David Bowie

3/5

drama kid discovers eastern aesthetics

Hot Buttered Soul

Isaac Hayes

5/5

three amazing songs, but walk on by? it doesn’t get much better than that.

Chicago Transit Authority

Chicago

2/5

one star for does anybody really know what time it is? and one star for i’m a man. experimental guitar too experimental

The Sounds Of India

Ravi Shankar

4/5

authentic, timeless yet ancient, and still modern. The explanations are really nice context and work in flow with the album. I would have liked more shorter songs, but very good.

The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

5/5

Ramones

2/5

I hope this sound wasn’t played out in the sixties because it certainly is now. The same song 10/14 times

Pornography

The Cure

5/5

last song sounds what my one and only panic attack felt like. This album made me feel all kinds of ways

Bluesbreakers

John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers

4/5

an album, through and through.

Eternally Yours

The Saints

4/5

very good for how quickly it exited my brain.

Teenager Of The Year

Frank Black

4/5

i think this is what the grandparents of the 90s were worried about, right before everything else.

Moving Pictures

Rush

5/5

Before this I really did not like Geddy Lee’s voice, but man, this is an absolute banger through and through. Did not know YYZ was Rush, also, so there’s that. Maybe this is what growing up is

Tracy Chapman

1/5

this is not my album. sorry tracy. singing is obviously technically skilled, i’m just off the style and content. also fast car feels unserious

Skylarking

XTC

4/5

Fun! Very fun. Weirdly on the nose about every song title though.

The Healer

John Lee Hooker

4/5

I am in fact in the mood. Great voice

Viva Hate

Morrissey

3/5

Smiths detected. Idk, decent, mostly not for me.

My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy

Kanye West

5/5

a classic album. an intricately layered symphony of mania and ego, and an incredible triumph of hedonism

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

mostly fine. title track is the best by a mile, cover me is good. glory days is a song i would be content never hearing again

Cross

Justice

5/5

the important stuff. required listening

Cut

The Slits

4/5

if kidz bop had the nerve to put it all on the line and challenge the listener

Hail To the Thief

Radiohead

4/5

having listened to maybe four of them, this is the most radiohead album. it’s distilled, pure, whatever you want to call it, and it left no major impressions on me other than that fact. Good work

C'est Chic

CHIC

4/5

Very happy. And not just because of Happy Man. They fun with it

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

5/5

Stevie really is a wonder, man.

The Gershwin Songbook

Ella Fitzgerald

5/5

Endlessly lovely. Stunning vocals, phenomenal backing, wide breadth of subject matter but consistent quality, emotional range without losing sight of the one that matters most.

Konnichiwa

Skepta

5/5

British rap at its finest. Got some Black on Both Sides vibes.

Femi Kuti

3/5

Interesting, different, but not quite for me. Felt a little same-y.

Are You Experienced

Jimi Hendrix

3/5

Technically sound, but not that interesting, foundational as it may be.

Lady Soul
