Stripped

Christina Aguilera

3/5

Good pop album on first listen! A bit surprised to be honest because this music doesn't really strike me all that often. More R&B I found too, good work music.

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

5/5

Huge fan of Joplin's vocals, this was an awesome album

Electric Ladyland

Jimi Hendrix

5/5

Huge fan, had everything I want in an album, one of the best I've listened to recently

James Brown Live At The Apollo

James Brown

5/5

Awesome live album, saved

Low

David Bowie

2/5

I can't say I'm the biggest Bowie fan, I need to do a deeper dive on him one day but it doesn't grip me at this point in my life

At Mister Kelly's

Sarah Vaughan

3/5

Easy listening, she has a beautiful voice

AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted

Ice Cube

3/5

Wow extremely misogynistic, fresh beats though. Three stars

Punishing Kiss

Ute Lemper

4/5

I really liked this!!! She has such a beautiful voice

Come Away With Me

Norah Jones

4/5

I've listened to it a bunch of times in the past. Great for when you light a candle in the apartment

The Suburbs

Arcade Fire

3/5

Very good, I saved it, wants me want to listen to more Arcade Fire

Hotel California

Eagles

3/5

Easy listening, can't complain about this guy even if I don't really love the Eagles

Scott 2

Scott Walker

2/5

Kind of a funny album, the dude is a little funny too after reading about him. Pop sensation that kind of sounds like a shitty Barry Manilow. I'm probably not giving it enough credit. Also weirdly sounds like a Christmas album sometimes. Huh. Kind of forgettable, sounds like Scott 3 and 4 are a little more fun.

São Paulo Confessions

Suba

1/5

Not for me, kind of forgettable on first listen.

Exodus

Bob Marley & The Wailers

4/5

Very nice listening, could work to Bob for hours. Glad I'm doing this project and got to learn a bit about him too.

Boston

3/5

Top half starts soooooo stong then fades. I love Boston's hits, think they kind have a weak undercard, but enjoyed the album.

Dance Mania

Tito Puente

3/5

Tito is nice, good dinner making music

The Band

5/5

These guys are siiiiiiiiiiickkkkk. I regrettably never listened to The Band but this rec had me listen to their whole discography. I'm a mega fan now, these guys were rocking.

Vincebus Eruptum

Blue Cheer

4/5

I was surprised how many songs I knew! This was a cool album and glad it got recommended, especially learning how it was one of the first metal albums. In San Francisco of all places. Albums like this are why I like this site.

Dirt

Alice In Chains

2/5

Liked didn't love, just don't think that Seattle grunge scene is so much for me even though on surface level it should be. I respect the album though, just not a fave

Jazz Samba

Stan Getz

3/5

Nice dinner making music, I like Stan Getz a lot already. Cool to read some of the history behind how this started the bossa nova craze too

At San Quentin

Johnny Cash

4/5

I really liked this, more so than the Fulsome prison one. That crowd is going fucking nuts, it's infectious.

Guitar Town

Steve Earle

4/5

Really liked this and not really a country fan, feels like a good listen for when I need to feel something

Mott

Mott The Hoople

3/5

This one I had to relisten to because I didn't finish all the way the first time. It has caught my ear, I found myself bopping to certain songs too. I think this is one of those albums that will grow with each listen.

Arrival

ABBA

5/5

Holy shit do I love this album. I had no idea all the bangers on it, and discovered some ABBA hits I didn't know about. Absolutely amazing.

Blue Lines

Massive Attack

5/5

Amazing, one of my favorite albums of the project so far and listened to all their other stuff too. I'm a huge fan!

Pet Sounds

The Beach Boys

5/5

Absolutely incredible, this is already one of my favorite albums of all time. No notes, possibly perfect

Toys In The Attic

Aerosmith

2/5

Daydream Nation

Sonic Youth

3/5

I want to go back and listen, but I think these guys are good. My first Sonic Youth so I will explore further

White Blood Cells

The White Stripes

4/5

This is a banger, I a starting to really love White Stripes

Get Behind Me Satan

The White Stripes

3/5

Before And After Science

Brian Eno

3/5

At first I was not loving it, but I settled in like I do with most Eno albums.

Merriweather Post Pavilion

Animal Collective

5/5

One my all time favorites, didn't have to listen again because I know it well, but of course still did

Brilliant Corners

Thelonious Monk

2/5

I haven't listened to a ton of Jazz but I have actually listened to this one before! Obviously Thelonious is incredible, but I actually don't find this album my favorite, it's a little too--I don't know--discordant, for my taste? Really just don't like some of the noises, I am sure it's much better as a sit down, focused album but that's not when I really listen to jazz, at least not live

Electric Warrior

T. Rex

4/5

Liked it, not familiar with glam Rock, will relisten too

Parachutes

Coldplay

4/5

Very good, not much of a coldplay fan generally too but this album was easy listening, hit a certain vibe that will for sure be in my rotation

The Colour Of Spring

Talk Talk

1/5

Not a fan! I'm sure other people like it for their reasons
