Brian Wilson

2/5

I don’t like this kind of music. But I can definitely appreciate its impact. I need to look into his story related to this album.

The Age Of The Understatement

The Last Shadow Puppets

3/5

First album, great way to start off spooky season. Listened on a walk today. I really enjoyed, it brought me back to elementary/middle school indie rock vibes.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road

Elton John

4/5

loved. it was so cool to hear so many classics come together in a way that told such a story. you can really see how influential Elton John was even at that time, but especially how those influences carried on through the evolution of music

Harvest

Neil Young

4/5

I really enjoyed this one — I’ve heard a lot of it growing up so it was cool to hear it all come together. It sounded like an amalgamation of Sirius XM in a good way. Feels like a time where things were softer.

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

4/5

It’s not my usual kind of music but I can see why Stevie Wonder is such an icon. The piano and ambiance is impeccable.

Meat Is Murder

The Smiths

3/5

Although it’s a little theatrical for my taste, I did really enjoy this album. It’s very obvious to see where the power and passion came from during this time.

3 Feet High and Rising

De La Soul

5/5

FUCKING BANGER. peace love and hip hop for real. I am obsessed and forever upset that I wasn’t around to hear 80-90s hip hop as it happened.

When I Was Born For The 7th Time

Cornershop

3/5

Not my usual vibe but I really liked it. The funk was funkin and the embrace of stereotypical British vs Indian culture and music was really cool.

Swordfishtrombones

Tom Waits

4/5

I was not at all expecting to start my morning with a flashbang memory of the Robots movie. Banger album. Love the dark alt-rock and theatrical vibes.

Madman Across The Water

Elton John

4/5

Another banger by the king. This one felt much more story-driven and a little darker, a little sadder. Chills.

Buena Vista Social Club

3/5

Not really my taste, but it was good and a lovely soundtrack to my walk.

Apple Venus Volume 1

XTC

3/5

Alright. The punniness was good but not really my taste. I liked Greenman a lot.

Moon Safari

Air

3/5

Pretty good. Funky. I liked a handful of the songs but could take or leave the rest.

Throwing Muses

3/5

Surprised I haven’t heard of them before. Pretty cool, more my speed than some others I’ve heard. Though I felt like a lot of the songs sounded a little similar to each other.

Enter The Wu-Tang (36 Chambers)

Wu-Tang Clan

4/5

Hard af. I loved all the samples and adlibs. It felt really down to earth and for the people, by the people.

Heroes

David Bowie

4/5

The man himself. I love Bowie. Classics all around. I also really enjoyed the instrumental tracks.

The United States Of America

3/5

Funky. Different from everything else I’ve had so far, and I’m surprised I’ve never heard of them.

Smile

Brian Wilson

2/5

I don’t like this kind of music. But I can definitely appreciate its impact. I need to look into his story related to this album.

Lupe Fiasco's Food & Liquor

Lupe Fiasco

4/5

I really enjoyed this one. I was happily surprised to see Lupe Fiasco on this list — I don’t know this album but he was definitely a part of my music experience growing up.

Deep Purple In Rock

Deep Purple

3/5

Pretty good. A little long-winded for my taste but I enjoyed!

Van Halen

4/5

Banger. Crazy guitar riffs. A short but succinct overview of Van Halen imo.

Midnight Ride

Paul Revere & The Raiders

2/5

Alright. The little girl song was icky.

Isn't Anything

My Bloody Valentine

3/5

Alright. Felt kind of monotonous to me.
