The Score

Fugees

3/5

Great production. Some great songs. Loved the bass and drum sound. Seemed like smart clever lyrics.. More like 3.5 stars for me.

Live And Dangerous

Thin Lizzy

4/5

That guitar work!!

A Christmas Gift For You From Phil Spector

Various Artists

4/5

Christmas classic. Sounds like Xmas with my parents

Born In The U.S.A.

Bruce Springsteen

3/5

Solid album. Straight forward songs done well. Nice reminder of how many good songs are in this album.

Surfer Rosa

Pixies

2/5

Kind of a letdown for me. Understand the influence and would’ve cited it as a “great” album but found that after not actually listening to it in like 25 years I just didn’t enjoy the songs that much

Led Zeppelin II

Led Zeppelin

4/5

Classic for a reason. Appreciated the flow of songs

Shalimar

Rahul Dev Burman

4/5

What an adventure!

Tommy

The Who

2/5

Some good songs but I kind of find it to drag on. Enjoyed more in the beginning half. A little on the creepy side too

Low

David Bowie

4/5

Not what I was expecting. Really grew on me through the album into the moody instrumental songs. Some Reich-like vibes, some really great synth work.

Van Halen

4/5

Great rock. Eddie is so casually excellent it’s easy to just listen to him the whole album and forget the songs are rocking too

#1 Record

Big Star

3/5

Wasn’t ready for that 70s show theme song. Songs were all good but never really hooked me. Thought it finished stronger than started

Chemtrails Over The Country Club

Lana Del Rey

4/5

Casually moody. Felt like a rainy afternoon with nothing but a bottle of wine and a bottle of Xanax. Great vocal performance. Wish the instruments were a little more forward in the mix but that’s a nitpick.

Jazz Samba

Stan Getz

4/5

Sounds like Papa. Great easy listening sax/guitar jazz

Young Americans

David Bowie

4/5

Synchronicity

The Police

3/5

Dog Man Star

Suede

2/5

Technically sound/good but could shake the feeling that it sounded like Ricky gervais and Russel brand making an album together.
