Feb 19 2026

I like the harmonica. His songs have more diversity than I thought. I can get down with some Bob Dylan now.

Aladdin Sane by David Bowie
Feb 20 2026

This wasn't it for me. Probably only like 2 songs I'd want to hear again. The piano was great. I like Bowie, but the vocals on this don't pop enough or something

Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd
Feb 23 2026

Really good stuff. Heard the title track before. The last song was meh. Short album too. But the first three songs are great.

Tragic Songs of Life by The Louvin Brothers
Feb 26 2026

Nice pickin. In the pines! Ultimately too old-timey for me though

Off The Wall by Michael Jackson
Feb 27 2026

I like disco. I like Mj. This gets me movin.

Superunknown by Soundgarden
Mar 02 2026

Some classics here. His voice is incredible

Marcus Garvey by Burning Spear
Mar 04 2026

Good. I like the flute if I recall right.

Talking Heads 77 by Talking Heads
Mar 05 2026

Psycho Killer is great. Everything else is not really for me. The last song was okish.

Modern Kosmology by Jane Weaver
Mar 06 2026

This is a really nice vibe. I like the synths.

Blue Lines by Massive Attack
Mar 09 2026

I've heard Massive Attack but had no idea what they sound like. Surprised this came out in 91. Nice mix of rap/reggae

Rio by Duran Duran
Mar 10 2026

Peak 80's. I knew 2 classic songs. The others were also great

evermore by Taylor Swift
Mar 11 2026

It's ok.

Coles Corner by Richard Hawley
Mar 12 2026

Too slow for me. Probably good to fall asleep to. The ocean song was good.

Calenture by The Triffids
Mar 13 2026

Did not enjoy this. Cheesy 80s rock.

Black Sabbath by Black Sabbath
Mar 16 2026

It's amazing that this was in 1970. The guitars are wonderful. That being said, I'll probably give their later stuff a try instead of replaying this one

Brilliant Corners by Thelonious Monk
Mar 17 2026

While I appreciate the musical skill, it is not great commute-to-work music. It didn't offend my ears, but I kind of tuned it out.

Run-D.M.C. by Run-D.M.C.
Mar 18 2026

Nice beats. Fun rhymes. I like this.

Tom Tom Club by Tom Tom Club
Mar 19 2026

Now this is podrqaing. It sounds timeless to me.

Hounds Of Love by Kate Bush
Mar 31 2026

More interesting than I thought it would be

London Calling by The Clash
Apr 13 2026

The title song is a classic. It's all decent

The Healer by John Lee Hooker
Apr 15 2026

I was in a bad mood today and it didn't bring me out of it lol

Apr 17 2026

Pretty cool. Makes me want to watch theovie

Merriweather Post Pavilion by Animal Collective
Apr 22 2026

I should like this but I don't. There is too much going on. I like the album name. Maybe I'll give it a try some other time

Nixon by Lambchop
Apr 24 2026

Sounds like brunch music

Odelay by Beck
Apr 27 2026

This is good. I will listen to more Beck

Seventeen Seconds by The Cure
Apr 28 2026

I like some of the Cure, but this ain't it

Tanto Tempo by Bebel Gilberto
Apr 30 2026

I like the vibe. Wish I understood Portuguese. But it is still nice listening.

I Am a Bird Now by Antony and the Johnsons
May 01 2026

This is art. Almost seems like a play or musical or something.

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
May 04 2026

I liked the first track. I kinda zoned out after that.

Graceland by Paul Simon
May 19 2026

You can call me al is a wonderful classic. The rest of the album sounds similar but not as good. So the album as a whole is just ok.

Destroyer by KISS
May 22 2026

I didn't do much for me. I tapped my foot a few times and chanted along once or twice. Maybe a different Kiss album would be better.

Lam Toro by Baaba Maal
Jun 05 2026

I like this. Excellent beats

Pearl by Janis Joplin
Jun 09 2026
American Idiot by Green Day
Jun 23 2026

So the hits are there for sure. The songs in between though, are just ok.

Neon Bible by Arcade Fire
Jun 26 2026

This is like alt rock for drama kids. I'm not sure about it. I like how the songs build I guess.

Be by Common
Jun 30 2026

I like it.

Actually by Pet Shop Boys
Jul 02 2026

Some of the best dance beats I've heard out of the 80s

Different Class by Pulp
Jul 07 2026

I wasn't feeling it but it was a monday morning
