Band On The Run

Paul McCartney and Wings

4/5

I do love Sir Paul. Somehow, I've never listened to a Wings album, but I did know tons of these songs. A later, chiller banger I didn't expect was Mamunia. Sounds like Paul Simon was definitely listening to a lot of Wings pre-Graceland to me!

At San Quentin

Johnny Cash

3/5

I'm happy for the nice San Quentin folks who got the reprise, but I don't think I needed it. Fascinating hearing "fuck" bleeped in a live context!

Never Mind The Bollocks, Here’s The Sex Pistols

Sex Pistols

2/5

I think I'm too old to care about this. It's totally fine but it doesn't even feel remotely shocking, which it definitely means to be!

Cosmo's Factory

Creedence Clearwater Revival

3/5

Sheer Heart Attack

Queen

4/5

It's amazing how Queen always sounds like Queen while having so many different sounds.

The Man Machine

Kraftwerk

4/5

Still sounds modern which is wild. Metropolis specifically sounds like the Fringe soundtrack to me (positive). It's the progenitor of a genre but still sounds like the genre itself.

Scream, Dracula, Scream

Rocket From The Crypt

2/5

When I saw "toured supported by Soundgarden" this all made sense to me. Not for me!!

Paul's Boutique

Beastie Boys

4/5

Yeah, this is just sick. I think I've only ever heard Shake Your Rump before. The texture! The production!

Smash

The Offspring

2/5

I did not know just how much of Boston-area radio was Offspring. I have learned much.
