5/5

I listened to this album in a grey November but I can't wait to listen on a sunny June!

All Ratings

Viva Hate

Morrissey

4/5

It was my first time listening to a Morrissey album all the way through. I really enjoyed it. I was listening while I was doing chores around the house and honestly couldn't step away from it until it was finished. I'm inspired to listen to more of their discog.

Young Americans

David Bowie

5/5

This album is such an amazing time capsule for Bowie and the rocketship he was boarding.

Elephant

The White Stripes

What is there not to say! Perfect album

Rock and Roll at its Finest

The Velvet Underground & Nico

The Velvet Underground

5/5

An absolute classic. No words needed, just listen.

Cheap Thrills

Big Brother & The Holding Company

3/5

Never heard this album before. Janis is fantastic and the vibe rock but it's not one that I'll find myself going back to any time soon but if I stumble on it, I'd listen again gladly.

Crosby, Stills & Nash

4/5

I had not listened to this album before. Solid 60s vibes.

Freak Out!

The Mothers Of Invention

4/5

Another album and band I had never heard of. Loved it! Reminded me of parquet courts is some weird way.

One World

John Martyn

3/5

An interesting album, I get some serious DMB vibes from this and I've never been the biggest fan of DMB or Pearljam but it's not bad.

Sunshine Hit Me

The Bees

5/5

I listened to this album in a grey November but I can't wait to listen on a sunny June!

Automatic For The People

R.E.M.

4/5

Ill Communication

Beastie Boys

5/5

Classic, everyone should listen.

Arise

Sepultura

3/5

I hadn't listened to metal, like real metal in a long time. This was fun to throw back to. I had never listened to this album or artist before.

KIWANUKA

Michael Kiwanuka

5/5

Exile In Guyville

Liz Phair

4/5

Another artist I had not heard of and a progenitor to Alanis Morissette was an interesting discovery.

Garbage

4/5

Vow and Only Happens when it Rains. I feel like I remember hearing my older sisters listen to this album.

Sheer Heart Attack

Queen

5/5

It's Queen. It's great.

Shleep

Robert Wyatt

4/5

Another album and artist *be never listened too. I enjoyed the vibes.

Peggy Suicide

Julian Cope

4/5

New Artist! A lot of history with Julian Cope. I'll be interested to look through and listen to other bands he was connected with. Really enjoyed this album, the composition was really viby and I emjoy the british of all of it.

The Fat Of The Land

The Prodigy

3/5

90s electronica, another artist that's new to me. I was able to enjoy the vibe it cast while I was working.

Morrison Hotel

The Doors

5/5

Another example where I've heard a song or two but never listened to the whole album. I really enjoyed it. I've always enjoyed the Doors but this was a fresh take.

The Chronic

Dr. Dre

3/5

Honestly, some historic beats. This was one of my first rap album I listened to, alongside NWA's Straight Outta Compton. Though, after listening to this 15+ years later. The way they treat and talk about women, is cringe.

Tres Hombres

ZZ Top

2/5

Chill classic rock album. I am sure that is has some historical significance, it's lost on me. My father listed to a lot of ZZ Top and I have a few of their vinyls but this one is just alright.

1999

Prince

5/5

Hot Shots II

The Beta Band

3/5

Love me some British sounding vibes

Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

Beatles

5/5

Perfect album.

Sign 'O' The Times

Prince

5/5

I don't think there's a Prince album so far that isn't groovy as hell.

Follow The Leader

Korn

2/5

Back in the day, we all listened to some Korn. My roommate in college was actually his cousin, so he says. Not my vibe any longer.

Aja

Steely Dan

3/5

Short and classic. Peg is great!

At Mister Kelly's

Sarah Vaughan

4/5

Was not expecting that it was recorded live, which was so cool. A real slice of 1950's. Listening to her be so raw was refreshing. I haven't often listened to the recordings of people addressing the crowd for event recordings. It must have been different then. I had also not heard of Sarah Vaughan, I am glad that it no longer true.

The Wildest!

Louis Prima

5/5

I really enjoy this era of music. There's something so honest about how Louis scats along with the brass and brings the tempo to a pulse that makes your hips and feet want to dance.

Appetite For Destruction

Guns N' Roses

5/5

Greatest album of all time. Totally bias. I love this album. Guns N' Rosea has been my favorite band since I can remember.

The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan

Bob Dylan

5/5

perfect album

Smile

Brian Wilson

5/5

I remember listening to this when the remaster came out. It was my first listen of Brian Wilson.

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

3/5

All the classics in one spot.

Fear Of A Black Planet

Public Enemy

3/5

Classic. Sick beats and the vibe is great, I've outgrown it though.

Transformer

Lou Reed

5/5

Perfect Album

Goodbye And Hello

Tim Buckley

5/5

Damn, this is a beautiful album and even more tragic is the story behine Tim Buckley.

Calenture

The Triffids

3/5

A vibe for sure.

Amnesiac

Radiohead

5/5

Another perfect album

To Pimp A Butterfly

Kendrick Lamar

4/5

I don't know how I've gone this long and not listened to this album. So much variations, it's interesting listening to this after some of the other Rap albums that have been on my list. The evolution and difference is stark. I could relisten to this more often than the others.

The Cars

3/5

A real banger! Short and sweet!

Fresh Fruit for Rotting Vegetables

Dead Kennedys

4/5

There's no better album to listen to during our current state of the world. They wanted to rebel against it all in 1979 and burn it all down. Similar vibes now. I hope punk comes back.

Rock Bottom

Robert Wyatt

2/5

Wasn't expecting an album like this. I really liked the vibe, had a dream like quality to it. I don't think I would put it as a must listen but glad I didn.

Grace

Jeff Buckley

4/5

A fantastic 1994 album. Incredibly sad but powerful.

Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

4/5

Damn, this album ripped. Loved it!

New Gold Dream (81/82/83/84)

Simple Minds

3/5

Werid album name. Weirder Album Art. I had never heard of this band before. Some solid 80s vibes.

Let It Bleed

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Country Life

Roxy Music

3/5

Really interesting history around Roxy Music. The vibes were there and can understand how this album left an impression on the decades following.

Electric Warrior

T. Rex

3/5

This album feels like it could have come out in the late 2010's. Has a very classic indie pop-rock feel that was an unknown formula I hadn't known so many bands I like have been utilizing.

The Genius Of Ray Charles

Ray Charles

3/5

Kings Of The Wild Frontier

Adam & The Ants

2/5

Suicide

3/5

It has some vibes but not something i would go out of my way again to listen to but I appriciate the clear influence this has had on a lot of music I listen to.

New York Dolls

4/5

Still one of my favorite rock albums of all time. Just a vibe I don't think anyone else captured as well as them.

Station To Station

David Bowie

5/5

An incredibly tight album. I wouldn't expect anything else from the Starman.

Dire Straits

4/5

Great album, Dire Straits knows how to jam!

Blue Lines

Massive Attack
