People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm

Take Five was one of the songs that got me into Jazz in the first place; the entire album is full of gems.

Another one of those classic hip-hop albums. "Around the Way Girl" and the titular "Mama Said Knock You Out" tracks are well-known hits. Every song just felt good to listen to.

"Sasquatch, Godzilla, King Kong, Loch Ness, goblin, ghoul, a zombie with no conscience" - Jay-Z, Monsters

Was told that this is one of the top 5 most recommended jazz albums, and I can see why.

Legitimately have never listened to a full Steely Dan album until now. Now I want to know what else I've been missing out on.

Gotta be one of the most recognizable acid pop albums out there, and it's for a good reason. Makes me feel all fuzzy inside.

Take Five was one of the songs that got me into Jazz in the first place; the entire album is full of gems.

It gives off the specific kind of anti-war messaging that throws out all geopolitical factors in favor of "what if nobody actually believed in anything". An excruciatingly boring album, worsened by the 6-minute droning in the song "I Don't Wanna Be a Soldier, Mama".

One of my favorites; King Kunta was my intro to Kendrick.

One of my favorite punk rock albums of the 2000s, and there are a handful of them.

Listened to this for the first time back in college, and the quality has held up after all these years. Protect Ya Neck and C.R.E.A.M. are still my favorites in this album.

It's not what I was expecting when I saw that the album was punk rock, but it matches, and it's a wonderful listen. Loved the piano, loved the spoken word. Thank you to all horses

A solid Steely Dan album. Jazz fusion is not everyone's cup of tea, but it's mine. Will definitely be coming back to this one.

One of the most iconic old-school hip-hop albums. "N.Y. State of Mind", "Life's a Bitch", and "The World Is Yours" run concurrently in the album and are the more popular tracks (the first one being my favorite), but every song is smooth, lyrically and instrumentally. An essential for boom bap enthusiasts.

The third Marvin Gaye album I've received from this site, and it's one of his best.

From the upbeat, swinging rhythm of Sound and Vision, to the dark, otherworldly ambience of Subterraneans, the tone shift in this album is absolutely stunning while the tracks stay fresh. Another David Bowie banger.

A strong album with nice vocals and a smooth flow between songs. Definitely one of their more mainstream works; the title track and High and Dry are my favorites. It's not the best album I've heard from them, but it's certainly one I'll keep coming back to.

A wonderful fusion of jazz and hip hop; A Tribe Called Quest delivers on every front. Definitely a repeat album for me.

Another one of those classic hip-hop albums. "Around the Way Girl" and the titular "Mama Said Knock You Out" tracks are well-known hits. Every song just felt good to listen to.

So many gems in this album from "Bonita Applebum" to "Can I Kick It?". Q-Tip is a legend; a must-listen for 90s hip-hop.

A quintessential 80s synth pop album. Rio and Hungry Like The Wolf are definitely the top hit classics, but every song on this album is a banger.

This is one of my favorite albums from when I was in high school/college, and the quality is still good after all these years. Multiple bangers: Paranoid Android, Karma Police, and No Surprises.

This is The Police's final album, and arguably one of their best. Every Breath You Take is the obvious hit here, but songs like King of Pain and O My God are very solid. Essential new wave.
