Green

R.E.M.

4/5

This is their first release on Warner Bros. records. Not my favorite, nor the best IMHO, REM LP by any stretch. There are some very good, dare I say great, songs on here. Their first real grab at commercial success. The songs that were hits aren't the ones that stand out to me. It opens with a banger, which was a trademark of many REM LPs, "Pop Song 89", "World Leader Pretend", "You Are the Everything", "Untitled", "I Remember California", "You Are the Everything", "You Are the Everything", and "Get Up" would be my favorite tunes on here.

Henry's Dream

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

3/5

Younger Than Yesterday

The Byrds

The Gilded Palace Of Sin

The Flying Burrito Brothers

4/5

"The Gilded Palace of Sin" is the debut studio album by American country rock band The Flying Burrito Brothers. This LP has been widely regarded as an important album in the development of 1970s rock. Not a huge commercial success it does include 4 of my favorite Burritos tunes, "Do Right Woman", "Dark End of the Street", "Hot Burrito #1" [AKA "I'm Your Toy", "Hot Burrito #2". I really like this LP.

The Who

2/5

I do like The Who, quite a bit, but I've never really cared too much for this live LP. I know, I know, "It's the best live LP ever !!". Yeah, I'm not having it. Way too long and drawn out and quite a few songs I'm not that crazy about to begin with. Oh well.

One of my faves by them

Double Nickels On The Dime

Minutemen

1/5

I appreciate the need and the place in history of thei band and LP. It does strike me as "punk for punks sake", i.e. just making music to piss off the man. Mission accomplished. Note to future would be punkers: It's okay to have a catchy melody and hook. ;)

So Much For The City

1/5

Not a fan of this one.
