The Köln Concert
Keith Jarrett
My first LP to listen to was The Köln Concert by Keith Jarrett. I've included a wiki link of the LP itself and a youtube link: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=c77djHcrmVE&list=OLAK5uy_nCadsSovaCieKT8xqxSZlxJgK1pg7Uw_c https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_K%C3%B6ln_Concert
I'd Never listened to it before even though It had been recommended to me several times. It's Brilliant. What a shame I've deprived myself of it my whole life. The story behind the recording is just as remarkable.

Surfer Rosa
Pixies
If you've ever wondered what the difference between punk rock, and indy rock is, it's this: Alt Rock. And this LP, Surfer Rosa by the Pixies is a prime example. A banger of a debut LP, "Doolittle" would follow a year later, it's an influential debut album. It combines raw, abrasive noise with unexpected moments of pop melody and quirky, surreal lyrics. It's unique in that it combines , spacious production and the dynamic interplay between Black Francis's intense vocals, avant-garde guitar work, and melodic bass, it has inspired generations of musicians. 4/5 for me.

Debut
Björk
Not my cup of tea but I do see the value in this recording. Art rock/dance/disco/pop are how I would describe this one. A least 4 songs I can honestly say caught my ear. Definitely worth a listen. Reminded of Laurie Anderson quite often.

Let's Stay Together
Al Green
Classic R&B from the legendary Al Green. It’s included in several “greatest of all time” lists. For good reason too. I really enjoyed it… I need to listen with someone very dear to me next time … 5/5

Zappa, a genius, has never made music that appealed to me, a man of a much lesser intellect. I'm sure it's great on some levels but not for me.

IMHO - This is one of the most overrated LPs in rock and roll history. There are some really good moments on here but I've never seen what the all fuss was about. The band and the LP are just okay IMHO.

Face to Face
The Kinks
Face to Face, an album focusing on the loose common theme of social observation, is often regarded by critics as one of rock's first concept albums. Their first album consisting entirely of songs composed by members of The Kinks. "Sunny Afternoon" was the big hit. Apparently Ray Davies had suffered a nervous breakdown before recording began. Another all time fave of mine by The Kinks.
