Paranoid

Black Sabbath

5/5

We never listened to the whole album. Several songs were so familiar. Growing up, we all thought Black Sabbath was so hard and intense. No harder than the other bands at that time. Worth the listen. Ozzy's voice is very recognizable, but not as transporting or melodic as Robert Plant's. Rat Salad reminds me of Moby Dick. One of my new faves

Debut

Björk

3/5

Lil hippy dippy existential. Some songs have more of a beat and melody that I enjoy.

The Band

5/5

I would love to be sitting in a small venue listening to these guys

Led Zeppelin IV

Led Zeppelin

5/5

An album I’m familiar with but still found songs I hadn’t heard. Great drums and vocals. Classic

Dire Straits

4/5

Never listened. The songs seemed familiar without ever hearing them before. Sultans of Swing is obviously the only one familiar on the album. Nice and chill tracks.

Power In Numbers

Jurassic 5

5/5

That was a fun album to hear. We've heard similar music, but these escaped us.

Billion Dollar Babies

Alice Cooper

3/5

We are on the fence with this one. Some of the songs were decent and the others were lackluster. It can be said that you dont know what youre going to get with Alice Cooper

Scott 2

Scott Walker

4/5

Absurd lyrics fitting into a "soundtracky" feeling album. Some of his ballads felt dreary. This album feels like an emanation for other musicians with similar sounds

Abbey Road

Beatles

5/5

I remember sitting in our living room listening to this album on the headphones with super thick curly cord to the hifi. This is the nostalgic shit. Love how they can sing about dark stuff and somehow make it feel whimsical. Oh Darling gives passion and emotion and is my fave track.

American IV: The Man Comes Around

Johnny Cash

3/5

Melancholy. If he was aiming for us to feel beside him in his final hours, then he succeeded.

Here, My Dear

Marvin Gaye

3/5

Not my jam. Not terrible.

Beggars Banquet

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Bluegrass and folk feel. Liked it more than other Stones stuff

Wild Wood

Paul Weller

3/5

He reminds me of Chris Stapleton with a different band style behind him

Frampton Comes Alive

Peter Frampton

3/5

With the exception of the two famous tracks, this one left me wanting to go buy some food and a beer at the concert.

Queen II

Queen

5/5

Classic Queen sound, it’s everything I expect from them. Not sure why this album wasn’t as popular as others, but it’s no less amazing to listen to.

Miriam Makeba

4/5

Wow! She appears to be the catalyst of lots of trends in the 60s.
