A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

All Ratings

Live At The Harlem Square Club

Sam Cooke

3/5

Loved the transitions, love Sam’s energy, The jazz and soul were strong here, love these Cooke songs are banger, felt like I was there at a concert which was cool. Songs were weaved together well with happy in beginning and then sad and relatable relationships with it ending on a happy note. Love my Sam Cooke.

Kind Of Blue

Miles Davis

2/5

I realize the impact. Miles Davis pushed jazz and ventured into what is known today as modal jazz. To me though I’m more of a Motown, fast pace, swing jazz guy. Overall I liked it but not something I would listen to again unless I’m studying or working.

I Never Loved a Man the Way I Love You

Aretha Franklin

3/5

I love Aretha Franklin, love her voice within this album and the power she echos from it. She is the queen of soul. Love the soul within this project with all sorts of instrumentals, drums, piano, guitar, trumpet and much more. A very nice RnB and soul album that lead great impact.

Black Holes and Revelations

Muse

5/5

Absolutely peak, better than Radiohead. Knights of Condonia is cinema

In A Silent Way

Miles Davis

2/5

Better than Kind of Blues, liked the swing of it and this kind of jazz was nice.

Neon Bible

Arcade Fire

3/5

Really fun and different indie rock album, lot of cool instrumentals and vibe.

A Night At The Opera

Queen

3/5

Loved the experimentation with opera and rock. Love how all over the place the album is theme wise. Some songs didn’t stick out to me while some did. Very strong album but not one of my favorites.

Funeral

Arcade Fire

5/5

Absolute masterpiece, this album had great instrumentals with using guitar, piano, violins, and yes… kettle pots. This album discovers fears and anxieties of loss, through everything. This album resonates deep within me emotionally and confounds me in a way I’ve never felt before.

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

1/5

Endtroducing.....

DJ Shadow

4/5

Very experimental and werid at first but as I listened through the more and more I liked it. It’s a masterpiece using samples to convey a story of how mere samples can become blossoms of art, using this eerie album as an example.

Queen II

Queen

3/5

Huh, so that’s why Queen is the goat.

Dirt

Alice In Chains

3/5

Very good rock album, deep and personally on drug addiction and coming up from rock bottom. An easy and strong 3.

Dusty In Memphis

Dusty Springfield

2/5

Album was pretty good, liked the vocals and instrumentation. Very soulful and lively but here’s the thing, this felt like Aretha Franklin but not as good in my opinion. I didn’t think this album was anything really special but it was nice.

Raising Hell

Run-D.M.C.

1/5

Exodus

Bob Marley & The Wailers

4/5

I like Bob Marley, he is peak Regae

Sticky Fingers

The Rolling Stones

4/5

Very good

Time Out

The Dave Brubeck Quartet

2/5

Again just like miles Davis, great jazz to walk to and listen to but to me personally it was like ground breaking jazz to my ears, but it was very nice.

More Songs About Buildings And Food

Talking Heads

4/5

Really good indie rock album.

Blood And Chocolate

Elvis Costello & The Attractions

4/5

Thought album was really good. Loved the rock and roll with classic rock mix. Just a very nice album.

Disintegration

The Cure

5/5

Loved the album, Nate it’s not punk rock get your facts straight

Rage Against The Machine

4/5

You've Come a Long Way Baby

Fatboy Slim

2/5

Odelay

Beck

2/5

Killing Joke

3/5

Really good, a solid 3

The Atomic Mr Basie

Count Basie & His Orchestra

3/5

Love swing jazz

Buena Vista Social Club

3/5

Miracha band was fire

Led Zeppelin

3/5

Nothing crazy, just some sexy rock.

If I Could Only Remember My Name

David Crosby

2/5

Cool songs and story but messy putting it together.

The Cars

4/5

I found this album really interesting. I loved the retro and electronic synth rock of this album. Probably a 3 but I really like how it sounds.

Siembra

Willie Colón & Rubén Blades

4/5

SALSA!

Black Sabbath

3/5

This is not peak Black Sabbath but it’s pretty good, I loved the western folk rock within it. However we all know that when one becomes paranoid it becomes peak from within.

A Nod Is As Good As A Wink To A Blind Horse

Faces

2/5

Decent folk rock, some strong songs but some slow burns I feel.

Green Onions

Booker T. & The MG's

3/5

Overall a pretty good album. They really thought they invented the electric organ… or maybe they did…

Cafe Bleu

The Style Council

5/5

This album is gorgeous and I love it!

People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm

A Tribe Called Quest

4/5

This album was fantastic

Private Dancer

Tina Turner

2/5

I liked the funk and disco and occasional rock to this album but ultimately it wasn’t for me.

Debut

Björk

5/5

1 of the most visual albums I have ever listened to. Never gonna be a sound like björk

Fetch The Bolt Cutters

Fiona Apple

2/5

I like the message, freeing yourself from traumatic and toxic situations, I think the album was well put together but wasn’t for me.

Dare!

The Human League

3/5

Really like the electronic retro dance music.

Coat Of Many Colors

Dolly Parton

3/5

This was fantastic country and folk

Music in Exile

Songhoy Blues

2/5

Loved the instrumental and desert blues but felt like the lyrics didn’t match well with the rhythm and beat

Apple Venus Volume 1

XTC

4/5

This was great.

When I Was Born For The 7th Time

Cornershop

2/5

I don’t know where to start. This album was a mess and the middle was a slog to get through. There were 4 takeaway songs and the 2 and other 2 were the start and endings. All the middle stuff was just boring. I don’t think it was a total lost cause again some songs were good but it’s really close to a 1.

Bad

Michael Jackson

4/5

Did anyone catch on good friends the Stevie wonder hidden feature? Yeah man this was fantastic pop and a rnb album that still gives that groove.

Achtung Baby

4/5

I really enjoyed this rock band, they are also doing modern albums too :)

Sunday At The Village Vanguard

Bill Evans Trio

2/5

Good piano jazz
