Boston

4/5

This is full of Boston hits! Good recommendation.

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

3/5

This is a time capsule of a record. The 'Memphis Sound' and strings are definitely 'of a time' and you can totally hear how she got 'Son of a Preacher Man' out of that session.

Fulfillingness' First Finale

Stevie Wonder

4/5

My goodness... all Stevie does is make bangers! I never through I would be into a song with the word 'zillion' in it but here we are.

The Velvet Underground

3/5

Well, that was a really fun art rock album. I can completely see why they got hype early and stayed hyped.

It's Blitz!

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

3/5

What a solid album! It's a good one to just throw on and start grooving.

Maggot Brain

Funkadelic

4/5

A fantastic concept album that is all killer.

At Folsom Prison

Johnny Cash

5/5

10/10 classic album for a reason. The concept is really fun.

Clandestino

Manu Chao

3/5

Eclectic, low-fi, poppy album that has some bangers yet takes several artistic turns.

Blood On The Tracks

Bob Dylan

4/5

This is a great album and Bob Dylan is a fantastic lyricist... but I don't know if I would listen to it again.

Welcome To The Pleasuredome

Frankie Goes To Hollywood

5/5

I don't know what I was expecting but an absolute banger, of which the single is only a part, was not it.

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Beatles

4/5

A solid collection of bangers but not exactly a cohesive album. I can see how this below a couple of minds when it first came out.

Hot Buttered Soul

Isaac Hayes

4/5

Issac Hayes is a baaaad man!

Hms Fable

Shack

2/5

The back half is much better than the front. It sounds very suburban dad band-ish.

Lost In The Dream

The War On Drugs

3/5

This is a fun little groovy album! A little Dire Straits, a little Tom Petty, a little Bob Dylan... I'm into it.

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

An absolute classic. It has all the elements of a country album, but just frames them so perfectly as a rock anthem.

Low-Life

New Order

3/5

An interesting little 80’s album that makes good use of synth. I can see the appeal.

Violator

Depeche Mode

5/5

Well, if this isn’t an album about addiction and drug use, I don’t know what it is. It’s spooky and has multiple, well placed bangers. It’s like if The Wall was super danceable.

The Band

3/5

A great encapsulation of time and place. The Dixie imagery was a little dated but otherwise, a good album.

Sound of Silver

LCD Soundsystem

2/5

It has a moments, but I don’t think I care for this band onto the next one!

Bookends

Simon & Garfunkel

3/5

An interesting exploration of their style. I can totally see how Simon got to Graceland from here.

Hard Again
