Fisherman's Blues

The Waterboys

5/5

After The Gold Rush

Neil Young

3/5

Don’t care for his voice. All songs sound the same!

Heroes

David Bowie

3/5

Not my favorite David Bowie album. But I liked the instrumental pieces!

Mothership Connection

Parliament

4/5

Super fun!

Crime Of The Century

Supertramp

4/5

My dad owned this album but I don’t remember hearing it as a kid. I really enjoyed the end of Ruby and the last track of the title track!

Moondance

Van Morrison

4/5

Van Morrison’s music isn’t really my style, BUT I still appreciate the album—it’s still a good one!

The Specials

3/5

Behaviour

Pet Shop Boys

3/5

While I typically enjoy this genre of music, Pet Shop Boys just aren’t for me.

Country Life

Roxy Music

4/5

I really enjoyed this one—I’d never heard of Roxy Music before.

Young Americans

David Bowie

3/5

While still not a huge Bowie fan, I like this album much more than Heroes. Also love Fame!

Close To You

Carpenters

4/5

I love the Carpenters! My dad used to sing “Close to You” to me when I was a baby. I think his tune (pun intended) has changed since then. 🤪

The Contino Sessions

Death In Vegas

4/5

Never heard of them before this and I was surprised! I love some late 90s electronica so this will be in my rotation going forward!

Zombie

4/5

Good background music!

Nevermind

Nirvana

Dirt

Alice In Chains

4/5

I was more of a Bush fan than Alice In Chains, but I do like them and this album is excellent. RIP Layne!

The Dreaming

Kate Bush

1/5

This was awful. It was like she’s was trying to be “unique” just for the sake of it. Was I at the circus? The opera? At a yoko ono concert? Not for me at all.

This was my soundtrack to summer 2011

2/5

I would give it 2.5 stars probably. If you would have told me this was from the early 00s I would have believed you.

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

4/5

This album had a couple of bangers, but I don’t think overall this is their best.
