Frank by Amy Winehouse

Didn't like any song and will likely never listen to it again. The first album I've encountered that feel like it's on here as a snapshot of what things were like at the time rather than on its merit. This is what culture felt was female sexual empowerment in 2003. Compared to Sabrina Carpenter or Chapel Roan we can see how messed up it is. But it's all part of the same history.

Real Life by Magazine
Nov 29 2025

Good sound, I can hear a lot of influences on more modern bands. But not my cup of tea personally and not taking anything to the hit list.

Graceland by Paul Simon
Nov 30 2025

Heard the hype and it's true. Classic and fresh at the same time. An album that offers variety while being instantly recognizable.

Coat Of Many Colors by Dolly Parton
Dec 01 2025

Hadn't listened to the whole album before, but none of the less known songs stood out. Always good to spend time with Dolly.

L.A. Woman by The Doors
Dec 02 2025

The hits are good but the rest is meh. Blues written for men who had a guaranteed pension and enough in the bank to buy a second house isn't where it's at.

Music From Big Pink by The Band
Dec 03 2025

The weight is good, Chest Fever surprised me. The rest weren't memorable.

American Idiot by Green Day
Dec 04 2025

So good. Biased as I was there to watch the 911 hangover hit and listen to this album express the feelings we had as teenagers back then. But the songs on their own are great and the album as a whole flows so well. Proof not everything in the early 2000's was awful.

Permission to Land by The Darkness
Dec 05 2025

Fun songs. And glad to finally enjoy the missing link that gave us NSP.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary And Thyme by Simon & Garfunkel
Dec 06 2025

Glad I listened to it. Like Shakespeare and Citizen Kain, good context for where we are today and how we got there. But probably won't ever listen to it again.

Street Signs by Ozomatli
Dec 07 2025

Wow, glad I was introduced. Finding good songs outside my experience is why I'm doing this. So it's great to see one in the first week.

Dirt by Alice In Chains
Dec 08 2025

Love Alice in Chains' sound. Unfortunately it's their only sound. Bones is forever a part of me given how many times I played it on Guitar Hero.

Frank by Amy Winehouse
Dec 09 2025

Didn't like any song and will likely never listen to it again. The first album I've encountered that feel like it's on here as a snapshot of what things were like at the time rather than on its merit.

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Dec 10 2025

Good, not nearly as good as Paranoid but everyone has to start somewhere.

Pornography by The Cure
Dec 11 2025

Oof, feels like the 1001st entry. Couldn't tell when it changed songs other than the titled album and wow was the whole thing underwhelming.

Let It Bleed by The Rolling Stones
Dec 12 2025

Gimme Shelter gets the album a 3 even if it was the only song on it. Everything between it and You can't always get what you want are filler, but still worth a once over.

Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens
Dec 14 2025

Holy hell. I knew Cat Stevens from Wild World, but this is awesome. Like, when D&D thought up a bard they just wrote up what it felt like to listen to this album and you got someone who's pure musical expression could defeat mythical beasts.

Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band
Dec 15 2025

Good, but not my thing.

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
Dec 17 2025

Good, historically important, but not my thing.

The Modern Dance by Pere Ubu
Dec 18 2025

Don't really 'get' it. Not interested in what I do to look deeper.
