Sweetheart Of The Rodeo

The Byrds

3/5

Kind of a mishmash here, from classic country to almost rock. I liked some of the songs more than others.

Back At The Chicken Shack

Jimmy Smith

5/5

Loved this! So cool and groovy and listenable.

At Fillmore East

The Allman Brothers Band

4/5

They are clearly great at what they do. The band sounds excellent and tight. While I'm not so into jam bands, I can appreciate this. Would I listen to it a lot? Probably not.

Bat Out Of Hell

Meat Loaf

2/5

I guess it's impressive that this was a debut album? And I mean, we all love Paradise by the Dashboard Light. The ultimate in cheesy fun. And I always kind of liked Two Out of Three Ain't Bad. But it's just all so over the top. And why are all the songs so long?

In The Court Of The Crimson King

King Crimson

2/5

Too high-concept. It just made me impatient. I was kind of disappointed because I was curious about this band.

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

4/5

I didn't know this album and I was surprisingly delighted by it! Love the cover art, and the album's title. I don't know a ton about hip-hop, but it's clear to me that this must have been pretty important to a lot of musicians who listened to it. And it was just cool and nice to have on!

At Budokan

Cheap Trick

4/5

A super solid live album. I was a fan when I was 10ish or so! Good band.

The Cars

5/5

I adore this album from beginning to end. I love the Cars. They were so ahead of their time. And this is their DEBUT album.

Joan Armatrading

4/5

Beautiful. She’s so cool.

Warehouse: Songs And Stories

Hüsker Dü

2/5

I was curious but ultimately disappointed. The same song over and over.

The New Tango

Astor Piazzolla

1/5

Just didn't really do anything for me.

Either Or

Elliott Smith

5/5

Amazing album by an incredible, influential musician. RIP, Elliott.

Odessey And Oracle

The Zombies

4/5

What’s not to like? Fun psychedelic pop. This Will Be Our Year is a favorite of mine.

Colour By Numbers

Culture Club

2/5

I was just never really into them. I liked Time Clock of the Heart from their first album. But I never bought that album, or this. I found Karma Chameleon annoying. Ok radio music but never one of my bands.

The Marshall Mathers LP

Eminem

3/5

Songs From A Room

Leonard Cohen

3/5

Not my favorite of his, but he’s an amazing storyteller.

Ten

Pearl Jam

3/5

Iron Maiden
