Bizarre Ride II The Pharcyde

The Pharcyde

4/5

Never heard the whole album before, but Passing Me By and Your Mamma are classics.

Fifth Dimension

The Byrds

Can definitely tell where Ride got their sound.

Bossanova

Like Water For Chocolate

Common

4/5

Common is so underrated. A bit too much homophobia for my liking in a couple of the tracks but eh, it's a product of its time. We learned and got better.

Very

Pet Shop Boys

5/5

This is an album that has held up, erm, Very well. I got it shortly after it came out and it was fresh, and now it just sounds like a good friend. Almost timeless.

My Bloody Valentine

5/5

Phaedra

Tangerine Dream

5/5

Love the 80s Edgerunner drums.

Devotional Songs

Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan

4/5

Took awhile to find as it's not on Apple Music (found it on Youtube) I know nothing of Qawwali so this is speaking in a secular way- he's got a beautiful voice and the music is joyful

Wish You Were Here

Pink Floyd

5/5

I mean it's an absolute classic. Bands like Pink Floyd don't come along often.

american dream

LCD Soundsystem

Gentlemen

The Afghan Whigs

4/5

Surprised by this. I've heard a few of their songs and thought "meh."

16 Lovers Lane

The Go-Betweens

4/5

Surprised by this. I've heard a few of their songs and thought "meh."

Smokers Delight

Nightmares On Wax

5/5

Definitely Maybe

Oasis

Happy Trails

Quicksilver Messenger Service

4/5

Copper Blue

Sugar

5/5

YES. This is my favorite offering by Bob Mould. Still sounds fresh today. One of my Desert Island Discs.

Crosby, Stills & Nash

4/5

I love the vocal harmonies, just not really my favorite style of music. I can see why it's a classic and I still hear Suite, Judy Blue Eyes on the radio.

Triangle

The Beau Brummels

2/5

Forced vibrato, Dylan-esque vocals, bland music.

Achtung Baby

5/5

Music for the Masses

Depeche Mode

5/5

I mean it doesn't get any more classic for Gen X than this album. Arguably their best release. Musically everything is on point and meshes well. Songwriting is perfect and vocals weave nicely in and out of the synth lines. The song Little 15 has always given me the ick though.

Imagine

John Lennon

3/5

Two Dancers

Wild Beasts

5/5

Reminiscent of Klaus Nomi in places. Giving it five stars because it is well done, but it's not my cup of tea.

The Scream

Siouxsie And The Banshees

5/5

NOW we're talking. One of the best albums to come out of the post-punk era (though I hesitate to call Siouxsie post-punk as their work is a very broad spectrum)

Manassas

Stephen Stills

4/5

Casanova

The Divine Comedy

2/5

Blur, Oasis, and Pulp should be severely punished for the onslaught of Britpop. Not saying all Britpop is bad, but *points at album*

A Grand Don't Come For Free

The Streets

3/5

I love the storytelling in this, but absolutely hate the flow. I blame growing up in Atlanta for that. Still worth listening to.

Hunting High And Low

a-ha

2/5

Ready To Die

The Notorious B.I.G.
