5/5

This album has not aged at all, still sounds like it is from 1428. I will never not love this album.

Guitar Town

Steve Earle

2/5

This album was a bit too country twang for me. Sounded like John Cougar Melloncamp with a cowboy hat. Didn’t hate it, just not for me. 5/10

Blue Lines

Massive Attack

4/5

Super chill! Brought me back to a time.

Blur

3/5

Super fun as always. If I had never heard it, I may feel like it is too in to itself if I am being honest. A little incohesive at times.

Music in Exile

Songhoy Blues

4/5

Very enjoyable! American style blues slips into that boogie reminiscent to Fela Kuti.

Bossanova

Pixies

4/5

Fantastic! Not their best, but an enjoyable listen. I feel like there was a good vibe, but not a lot of memorable songs.

On The Beach

Neil Young

5/5

The way neil was meant to be, loud and original. All I can say is, rock on!

Thriller

Michael Jackson

5/5

Banger after banger, MJ at his best! I enjoyed the variety of songs and the hype all the way through!

Led Zeppelin II

Led Zeppelin

3/5

Rocking and rolling. Classic blues rock album with all the unmistakable elements of the Led.

The Wall

Pink Floyd

4/5

Not my favorite floyd album. They tried a little too hard for my tastes at times. A lot of really awesome sobgs though throughout.

Grievous Angel

Gram Parsons

3/5

Fine, a little boring. I think I would enjoy this artist live.

Time Out Of Mind

Bob Dylan

2/5

Boring. This man should have quit after his motorcycle accident.

Dookie

Green Day

4/5

The amount of hits on this album is staggering. Though juvenile at times, the lyrical melody really draws you in for a captivating experience.

Ramones

4/5

Super fun! If every song was 2 1/2 minutes, this album would be king!

Highway to Hell

AC/DC

2/5

Listening now, as a near 40 year old man, I realize why I loved it before and am annoyed by it now. Has some good hits. A bit Juvenile for me now.

S.F. Sorrow

The Pretty Things

3/5

Strong start, went off the rails as the album progressed. Still lots of fun.

Disintegration

The Cure

2/5

Honestly, pretty boring. There are a couple of good songs but after a while the singers voice really grates on my nerves.

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

2/5

I was looking forwards to this. The album was a bit forgettable and tedious. I think it was an album of a time.

Start to finish, a wonderful ride.

California

American Music Club

4/5

Out of left field, never heard ofnit. I loved it.

Dare!

4/5

Fantastically fun! Really enjoyable all the way through. I liked the little ways they take the 80s genre and really make it unique.

The Stranger

Billy Joel

2/5

Some good hits. Ok in general.

Garbage

4/5

Very fun. This brought me back to a time. Very 90s in its essence and intriguing in its own style.

3/5

Very pretty. Could have been from any time. Not memorable.

2/5

Weird and fun.

Head Hunters

An experience not to be missed.

Bluesbreakers

John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers

3/5

Solid blues rock album. As always, Clapton comes through strong. In the end though it is just that, a blues rock album.

The Queen Is Dead

The Smiths

3/5

Morrisseys voice starts to grind on me after awhile. Solid otherwise.

Sea Change

Beck

4/5

Forgot how long this is. Winner.

3/5

Solid rock baby! All the so gs we gree up on.

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

3/5

Some solid hits. I lost interest halfway through and was more excited to come into the first so g after the album.

Group Sex

Circle Jerks

2/5

Boring and typical punk. I think it may have inspired a lot of tropes which i am too young to appreciate.

So Much For The City

The Thrills

3/5

Hip and fun. Would love this when it comes on but would probably not seek it out either.

Fleet Foxes

5/5

This album has not aged at all, still sounds like it is from 1428. I will never not love this album.

Pearl

Janis Joplin

Sister

Sonic Youth

2/5

3/5

Who's Next

The Colour Of Spring

Talk Talk

3/5

Very much an album of its time. To me it was a bit like a soundscape and not a collection of songs. It was nice.

Hunting High And Low

a-ha

3/5

Definitely a product of the time. First song is awesome and the hit. After that, they were all interesting!

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill

Lauryn Hill

3/5

Very nice and soothing. Lauryn Hill has one of the most recognizable voices out there and I love it. Active listening though gets a little boring. The music tends to roll over itself, blending together in to a wonderful blanket that makes it hard to pick at a single thread.

The Wildest!

Louis Prima

2/5

Fun and weird. Felt like I was watching an old movie.

I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You

Aretha Franklin

4/5
