5/5

Holy crap. Usually I’m annoyed by songs with string out chorus’ but the rhythm and synth on this album is so enjoyable.

Oxygène

5/5

Definitely a night time gift wrapping album. I’ll revisit this so I think it’s good enough for a 5.

5/5

Not sure how you could hate this album. The songs are legendary and fun, some of you people are too serious!

A Love Supreme

John Coltrane

5/5

An album with the main instrument being a saxophone, 10/10

You've Come a Long Way Baby

Fatboy Slim

1/5

Praise You and Rockefeller Skank are all I really cared about. I did a lot of skipping because of how boring and obnoxious some songs got, lik In Heaven and Kalifornia.

Let England Shake

PJ Harvey

4/5

Refreshing listen, last album for me was a fat boy slim album so this was good!

Back In Black

AC/DC

5/5

Every song is good

Triangle

The Beau Brummels

3/5

Eh, not for me. I’m a Dylan fan, but this was just kind of meh.

John Prine

3/5

Basic country shit. Catchy, but won’t revisit.

Born To Run

Bruce Springsteen

5/5

A classic, funky and sometimes jazzy album. Love it, can turn it on anytime.

Jagged Little Pill

Alanis Morissette

3/5

Californication

Red Hot Chili Peppers

2/5

This band sucks and the singer is a creep. Couple good songs though, docking points for being shitty all around.

Faust IV

Faust

3/5

Woof, this was an interesting one. Not my kind of music, I listen to Zappa sometimes and some Iron Butterfly, but outside of that, this was just experimental noise. Won’t revisit.

Illinois

Sufjan Stevens

5/5

Fun album

Sound Affects

The Jam

3/5

Here Are the Sonics

The Sonics

2/5

Not really sure why this album is necessary for us trying to expand our musical mind. It came out the same year the Beatles released Rubber Soul but has the same production of a mid 50s rock album.

Coat Of Many Colors

Dolly Parton

3/5

Trans Europe Express

Kraftwerk

5/5

Holy crap. Usually I’m annoyed by songs with string out chorus’ but the rhythm and synth on this album is so enjoyable.

Tracy Chapman

4/5

Sad, realistic album with little vote for hope. Beautiful lyricism.

The Wildest!

Louis Prima

5/5

Aftermath

The Rolling Stones

3/5

A couple “innovative” songs (leaving behind the basic rock and roll that made them popular).

Kollaps

Einstürzende Neubauten

1/5

What the fuck?

Harvest

Neil Young

5/5

Dirt

Alice In Chains

5/5

Best grunge album and it’s not even close.

Oracular Spectacular

MGMT

5/5

Pure nostalgia trip. I was in 5th or 4th grade maybe. My grandma was going through a musical renaissance herself and Gave the Beatles a break for this, Maroon 5 and some Gwen Stefani lol. Yeah, the classics on here, Time to Pretend, Electric Feel, Kids, really are the powerhouse but the other songs are really good, too. I think these kids were in college just playing their shit for classmates. Pretty creative stuff.

Antichrist Superstar

Marilyn Manson

4/5

I’m not a metal head, I don’t listen to a lot of this music. But strangely enough, I enjoyed this album. I picked out a few songs I liked the most but I can see myself revisiting this one too find more.

The Idiot

Iggy Pop

2/5

I didn’t learn anything from this experience besides David Bowie’s “China girl” isn’t his at all.

Rock 'N Soul

Solomon Burke

3/5

Eh. Basic 60’s sound. Some good tunes but nothing groundbreaking.

Pacific Ocean Blue

Dennis Wilson

3/5

Some good songs, I wonder what Dennis would have been able to grow into had he lived longer. This was a drag of an album though, the sound was so similar throughout. Easy listen, nothing to rave about.

Vanishing Point

Primal Scream

4/5

Pretty fun listen. Some instrumental, some weird lyrics. Had a good time and will absolutely revisit.

Abraxas

Santana

5/5

Classic guitarist here with classic guitar riffs. Can’t really hate it at all.

Parachutes

Coldplay

3/5

Sparks, Yellow, Trouble. That’s a pretty good three song punch right there. The rest of the album seems kind of eh.

Out Of The Blue

Electric Light Orchestra

4/5

Classic album with some of the best classic rock tunes ever. This album is what made ELO coined as “The Future Beatles”.

Oxygène

Jean-Michel Jarre

5/5

Definitely a night time gift wrapping album. I’ll revisit this so I think it’s good enough for a 5.

My Generation

The Who

3/5

I could only listen to the deluxe album and man did it just draggggg. A good amount of their classics came from this album but outside of that it was just basic 60s rock.

James Brown Live At The Apollo

James Brown

4/5

The godfather of soul. Lively performance, truly shows how much HE was the music. Only problem is it’s only 30 minutes.

2112

Rush

4/5

If I hadn’t heard loud prog rock before this album, I’d say it’s the most fun I had listening to music. The sound is explosive and the vocals are just mmmm, I see where Josh Kiszka from Greta Van Fleet got his vocal influence from.

Layla And Other Assorted Love Songs

Derek & The Dominos

4/5

Moby Grape

3/5

I’m not really sure I understood the assignment, here. It’s alright, not too exciting. I’ll probably come back to it to explore the songs again but it’s pretty average.

The Joshua Tree

5/5

Not a U2 fan by any means but this album is fantastic. The sound is just so big and “new” even thought it’s almost 40 years old. Part of a permanent collection.

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

5/5

I love Christmas. I love this album. I love the sound.

Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

1/5

Garbage, not really fun at all and it’s fucking obnoxious. I’d rather listen to turtles fornicate for a month.

The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators

The 13th Floor Elevators

4/5

The definition of psychedelia. This album is also highly sought after in record format because of its popularity and importance.

Morrison Hotel

The Doors

5/5

The whole album hits, might not be as hard as the leadoff Roadhouse Blues, but the short track list is very easy to listen to.

Machine Head

Deep Purple

4/5

Has highway Star and smoke on the water.

The Soft Bulletin

The Flaming Lips

3/5

Vocally, unimpressive. Musically, very smooth and fun to listen to. The vocals were just… they just sounded like they tried to sound bad.

Penthouse And Pavement

Heaven 17

3/5

Weird 80s experimental/noise album. Was pretty funky and groovy at times, I’ll probably revisit as a joke to my friends lol

Rid Of Me

PJ Harvey

4/5

Loud. Kind of messy, but there were some good songs on here. I’ll have to revisit to see which ones I liked the most but I was satisfied.

Getz/Gilberto

Stan Getz

5/5

I live and breathe for this buttery goodness. The calming vocals. The wonderful guitar. YUMMMYYYU

Atomizer

Big Black

1/5

Another album I couldn’t finish. What a weird fucking album. Not even good sound, it’s just loud “edgy” “punk”.

good kid, m.A.A.d city

Kendrick Lamar

5/5

This album is a literal storybook, man. Shows the life Kendrick led in his youth, with gangs and violence. Top song is “M.a.a.d City”, vibe is poetic justice. 10/10.

Nevermind

Nirvana

5/5

All the songs aside from the last one make this album. Endless, Nameless kind of creates a nice segue to In Utero. This albums full of real commercial shit, but it’s good commercial shit, this is what made Nirvana good. They knew how to make music for commercial success without pissing off the pissed off.
